Blair & Justin’s Clemson Engagement

Clemson University means a lot to its alumni, as anyone who’s  spent any time in SC knows. I was not super familiar with the campus until recently, and let me tell you, I can NOT get enough of it! There is something about the way the light hits the land near sunset up in Clemson that is just unbeatable. I’m convinced their orange and purple school colors are inspired by the sunsets over Lake Hartwell. So when Blair and Justin suggested shooting here, I couldn’t schedule their Clemson engagement session fast enough! We had such a blast, and the time absolutely flew by. Enjoy the photos from their engagement session at Clemson!

Kidding! You should definitely have a floral budge Kidding! You should definitely have a floral budget, and I have 4 great ideas on how to use it best.  Whether your wedding is $80,000 or $18,000, everyone has a budget, so I hope these tips help you get the most out of yours!

1.) Go big or go home! If your budget is limited, focus on big focal pieces instead of trying to have flowers everywhere. Opt for show-stopping installations in one or two places (ceremony backdrop or head table at reception are great spots). Here’s why: floral budgets are a quantities game. If you have 20 tables and 15 bridesmaids, you’re going to spend your entire budget on centerpieces and bridesmaid bouquets! Instead of spreading it all out and having just a few blooms in bud vases, go for an epic floral installation!

2.) Mix it up! Opt for a variety of centerpieces instead of having a standard centerpiece on every table. Even my most luxury wedding clients tend to choose 2-4 types of centerpieces, because this brings more visual interest, depth, and and layers to the space. This will also give you more flexibility in your budget!

3.) Reuse smartly. So many wedding planning tips will tell you to re-use your florals throughout the day, but I recommend talking with your florist first, to see what they recommend. Some flowers wilt very quickly, whereas others are resilient enough to go from bouquet to centerpiece. The season, your venue’s logistics, your event design, and other factors will determine whether your flowers can be used throughout the day in different roles. Your florist will be able to guide you here!

4.) Ask your florist if they have any additional blooms or greenery that can be used for detail flatlays. Flowers are great for elevating your flatlay designs, and often, there are no loose stems for your photographer to use. Just about 6-10 stems are all we need!
As the previous post says, I had too many photos t As the previous post says, I had too many photos to fit in one post, so let me share just a handful more. Maybe I’ll share every week and call it Tuscan Tuesday or something! 🤔
There’s something extra special about an al fres There’s something extra special about an al fresco wedding celebration in the rolling hills of Tuscany. Surrounded by olive groves, ancient villages, and loved ones from around the world, Bailey & Mattia enjoyed a relaxed (and delicious) wedding day in Cortona, Italy. These photos don’t even begin to put a dent in how many photos I adore from this day, but Instagram only allows for 10, so I’ll have to share more at a later date! For now, excuse me while I manifest another Italian wedding 😉
If you have literally ANY women in your life at al If you have literally ANY women in your life at all, then you are lucky enough to know someone strong, courageous, loving, and MAGICAL. Here’s to every fantastic woman out there. May we know them, may we raise them, may we BE them. Y’all already know: the future is female!
