Charleston Wedding at Magnolia Plantation with Star Wars Flair

Share

Bride groom and young boy at outdoor wedding party

Ali and Cameron got married at The Carriage House at Magnolia Plantation & Gardens in Charleston on a hot day in August. There were so many beautiful sentimental touches scattered throughout the wedding.

For example, Ali had a heart-shaped piece of fabric sewn into the lining of her dress
from a shirt that was her mothers, who unfortunately passed away
several years ago. See if you can spot all of their special details in the full gallery, photographed by Sara Bee Photography.

Past & Present Pet Name Table Numbers

For the ceremony they had vintage pews lined up in front of an oak tree
to emulate a church. During the ceremony they had a tree-planting
ceremony to symbolize Cam and his two kids becoming one family with Ali.
At the reception they had golden animals as the table markers, each
named after each of their pets, both past and present. Ali and Cameron
are huge animal lovers and rescue animals in need, including their pig
Reba. All of their animals are also named after country singers.

How To Enter Your Reception In Nerdy Style

During their portrait sessions we took a special trip to the animals at
the plantation because their wedding wouldn’t be complete without
pictures with the ponies! To top off their special touches, they did a
light saber tunnel entrance into their reception.

If you’re a fan of Star Wars we suggest taking a peek at this Romantic Star Wars Wedding. Plus, don’t forget to take a look at the video below, filmed by Dock House Digital.
