Charles and Ashley



We had the best time in Conway, South Carolina celebrating our friends become Mr. and Mrs.!! We helped set up the rehearsal dinner but of course I did not take pictures of the decorations. It was fish themed which is perfect since the groom is a HUGE fisherman!

We started out by having James' best friend, Matt, drive down on Thursday night from Johnson City, TN. His wife was a bridesmaid and had to get her hair done before heading to Conway so we were able to pack in some fun while Matt was visiting! We went to Pint Night at Tap Room on Thursday and woke up bright and early to head to Conway to set up for the rehearsal dinner on Friday!

The rehearsal dinner had a fishing theme to it and it was so fun! We were working hard to get everything set up - James and Matt did all the tables and chairs and were the biggest help! We had our friend Sam buy out all the ice he could for the drinks and helped restocked as the night went on! It was a labor of love that turned out perfect, all that mattered was that the bride and the groom were happy! They served an amazing seafood Paella and had a grooms cake in the shape of Charles' tackle box! So clever!
Matt and Syd - our wonderful friends!

Saturday was the wedding - the Ceremony was at Kingston Presbyterian Church and it was beautiful with all the green and white flowers! We had the same colored flowers on our wedding day so it made me smile knowing what great taste Ashley had- ha! The bride was beautiful as she always is and the vows made us all cry.

Bridal party lined up!

 The reception was held in the brides parents home! They had a tent with beautiful chandeliers, fabrics and amazing flowers! The band was 17 South from Charleston and they had us on the dance floor all night!

The food was amazing! They had hibachi station and delicious shrimp and grits! The highlight of the evening (food wise!) was the Marble Slab! I was the second in line!
Beautiful pictures of Charleston hung on the 'walls' of the tent
With the beautiful bride! Friends for over 7 years!

James and I had a blast celebrating Charles and Ashley! James has been friends with Ashley for so long and is so sweet to her - he was fetching her water and even stood in line to get her Marble Slab! We all know how important it is to keep a bride fed! 
Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs.! We loved celebrating with yall!
