Hi! My name is Natalie and first I’d like to say congratulations on your engagement! This is such an exciting time and I’m thankful for your consideration to work with you on your wedding day! I’ve always loved hair and makeup but being able to share in your big day is my passion! I believe a bride should look like her most beautiful self on her wedding day with an extra little flair! I look forward to hearing your ideas and creating your perfect curated wedding look for you and your bridal party!

Awarded Best of Zola
Natalie is truly an amazing artist and person. I was so impressed when talking with her about her background in the hair industry. She told me that she could do whatever style I wanted, and she was absolutely right! Going into it, I had no clue how I wanted to do my hair. She was so great with going back and forth leading up to the trial to help me settle on a few styles. Then at the trial she worked with me to try a few different options. I ended up doing a second trial with her to perfect the look. On the wedding day, she absolutely nailed it! One of my biggest things was curl style, and she got the curls perfectly! She also did such an amazing job with my mom's hair, which made me so happy seeing how beautiful my mom felt with it. My dad said that was the best he's seen her hair in 30 years. Not only is Natalie extremely skilled, but she is also a great person. She is so humble despite her impressive background. She is also an incredible person and felt more like a friend by the end of this. We love her so much and recommend anyone getting hair done to go to her!!

Travis and his band were absolutely phenomenal to work with for our wedding. The music was great; he learned our first dance song perfectly; the selection of music meant there was something for everyone; and he even had tarps to put up to keep the music going as the rain came down. Absolutely professional and a joy to work with. Plus, a bunch of my musician friends from around town recommended Travis and said he's fun to play with. You'll think so too. Thanks, Travis!

We craft timeless memories in our photos and videos. My background in Psychology helps me capture the essence of your special moments. We're dedicated to authentically telling your story through our lenses.

I am so happy we stumbled across Dennis and his team for our wedding. We had our first experience with him for our engagement photos and he is such a joy to be around. He is very professional, timely, accommodating, friendly, and funny. We had 3 photo sessions with him, our engagements, my bridal portraits, and our wedding and he knocked all of them out of the park. They are all so beautiful and he even shows you some while he's taking them so you can get an idea of what they look like. He makes sure you’re happy with them once you get them back and if there’s anything you want changed. He also makes sure you know how he wants you to pose or just do something funny to be natural. He has very quick turn around and is truly amazing at what he does. We love the fact that his photos are natural looking and he really captures everyone’s true beauty. We also go to meet and work with Megan on our wedding day and she was a great addition to have! We love the photos she took as well and they both made our day so enjoyable.

Where do we even begin? Taylor, our DJ, didn't just meet our expectations, he absolutely obliterated them! He flew all the way from Charleston to Cabo for our wedding, and even when his nearest airport was shut down due to a snowstorm, he found a way to get to us. That level of dedication is simply unmatched. But it wasn't just his commitment that blew us away. From the moment he started, the energy was electric. Taylor's emcee skills are top-tier. He was hilarious, engaging, and kept the party going all night long. He even hosted an epic twerk-off contest, letting us, the bride and groom, crown the winners – it was a highlight of the night! What truly sets Taylor apart is his ability to handle anything that came his way with grace and positivity. Weddings are unpredictable, and Taylor navigated every unforeseen moment with a smile and a solution. He seamlessly managed the flow of the evening, ensuring everything ran smoothly and the dance floor was always packed. More than just a DJ, Taylor has become a dear friend. We now wish he could emcee and DJ every event we host! If you're looking for someone who can elevate your event beyond your wildest dreams, Taylor is your guy. He knows how to keep the vibes way above expectations, and we can't recommend him highly enough. Thank you, Taylor, for making our wedding an unforgettable celebration!

Sam from Dream Day Charleston is an awesome DJ! We found him as a recommendation from our planner who had all great things to say. We're so glad he was able to DJ for our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. From the start, Sam was responsive and personable. Dream Day Charleston's website and online music portal were great resources that helped us start the music planning process! Sam even provided playlists for pre-ceremony options, cocktail/dinner music, and reception songs for every type of music taste. Sam took time to meet with us before our event to walk us through the day and and help us nail down final song choices and details. He even helped us edit and cut down our first dance song. Execution on the wedding day was flawless. The ceremony was great, Sam made sure the officiant was properly mic'd, our speakers had microphones, and made upbeat announcements to keep our event progressing. DJ Sam got everyone out on the dance floor with his great mixes and was able to take requests. I would highly recommend Sam for any event! His energy, passion, and professionalism are off the charts.

She makes us feel so comfortable posing in front of the camera, and the images and emotions she captures are beautiful.

Alissa with Sweet Bliss Media was very personable and easy to connect with. On my wedding day, she made me feel like it was her life's mission to make me feel and look beautiful in my photographs. Amidst all the craziness of your wedding day, it felt nice to have someone by your side to bring out the beauty. Who is not just there as a photographer for hire, but a forever friend capturing the special moments. Alissa also did things that she was not asked or contracted to, but just out of the kindness of her heart. She brought me bottled water to ensure that I stayed hydrated and even stayed later than we had originally laid out in the contract to make sure that my send-off was captured! She is a sweetheart and even though the photography was the biggest bill of the wedding budget, it was worth every penny, even my husband agrees. The finished product is absolutely stunning and we can’t wait to use her again for our family photos!! We highly recommend Alissa to all brides looking for a wedding photographer.

I provide a timeless, authentic, and in-the-moment approach to photographing your wedding. With a mix of documentary and editorial wedding photography styles, I capture the day as it unfolds and provide direction when needed, giving you a diverse and unique gallery. I believe your wedding photos are an artistic representation of your relationship and what makes your love feel like you.

Awarded Best of Zola
I couldn’t recommend Lone Peak Photography aka Katie more – I’ve told everyone I can, in every state, how amazing she is and her quality photography. From the moment I first spoke to her I knew she cared. I didn’t have family support to plan my wedding so Katie, a total stranger at the time, stepped in and helped me plan the wedding of my dreams. She was a constant support, easy to communicate with, flexible and helped lift my spirits when the wedding stress was getting to me. She took the time to get to know me and knowing someone understood my vision calmed my nerves. She was mindful of our tight budget and made a plan to capture our key moments. She has a talent for being both professional and genuine. I felt taken care of, especially on our wedding day when things always seem to be hectic and our timeline got a bit wonky. I knew I was in good hands and Katie directed everyone with confidence. She really knows how to capture the real emotion of the day, capturing gorgeous candids and ‘posed’ photos that really feel natural. One of my favorites was when she had us look into a loved one’s eyes- that look you share between you is so special and really shines with Katie’s photography. She wasn’t afraid to get silly with us which made things even more fun. She truly has an artist’s eye, even with the ‘little touches’ photos I couldn’t stop looking at them. I'm not someone who views themselves as beautiful and she made me feel so beautiful. She listened when I talked about insecurities and a favored side for photos. I thought I would have a few I liked of myself but I loved them all! She also wasn’t afraid to take a few editing requests which I appreciated immensely. The quality of her photos is unmatched. I enjoy that it’s really me, crisp beautiful colors like real life in HD without over done filters or unneeded editing. Lighting and scene framing really highlighted the beauty of the day and the happiness of the subjects. Just when the high of the actual wedding started to fade, Katie had sneak peaks ready the next day! I couldn’t believe it, it really brightened our day and calmed any anxiety that I wouldn’t be ‘photogenic’. She’s also great with animals – we incorporated our pets in our day and they are some of the best photos I’ve ever seen of our furry boys and you can see our love for them. I will for sure be working with Katie again, there are so many things I want to do. Family portraits, anniversary, more silly photos, I can’t wait. You won’t regret choosing Katie for any special day! :)

Pinnacle Weddings is a full service Wedding Company for couples who desire an effortless and romantic wedding day. We design and plan a Wedding Day unique to you and make sure that we make your dream day become a reality

Linda Warner and Pinnacle Wedding Planning are absolutely phenomenal! Our event was a complex affair with many moving parts and cultural elements to it. Vendors who we the family chose, unfortunately, did not meet the professional standards we had hoped for. Despite these challenges, Linda managed everything with grace, poise, and an impressive level of expertise. Her ability to keep things running smoothly and beautifully was nothing short of remarkable. Even during moments that could have been chaotic, her calm demeanor and resourcefulness brought a much-needed sense of reassurance. I am truly grateful for her dedication and skill, which turned a stressful day into a beautiful and seamless experience. I cannot recommend Linda and Pinnacle Wedding Planning highly enough—she was nothing short of incredible!

As a wife and recent Bride, I constantly look back at my wedding day gallery from my photographer. I would say at least once every couple of months! What I love about my wedding photos is that I can remember the day just by looking at those photos. I want that for YOU!

Ashlyn & her team are absolute rockstars! They were a true highlight of my day and went above and beyond to help in any way possible and make everything stress-free and fun. We had an outdoor wedding and it was a very windy day and her and the team would help out in moments that weren’t even their responsibility. She had amazing communication leading up to the wedding, during the day, and afterwards. She delivered our photos quickly and posted the most amazing content leading up to the gallery delivery. She also made me feel comfortable in front of the camera and captured a lot of cute candids that are so special to see after the day is over. I cannot recommend Sea Shea enough. This is a vendor I truly could not have lived without! Not only are the photos 10/10 amazing but the experience of working with someone who really cares about your day and takes the time to get to know you makes all the difference. I felt a connection to her and the team and they saved my windy chaotic wedding day! You can tell they love what they do by how much fun they exude and the photos that they deliver.

As your photographer, it is my goal to capture photos that are both genuine and timeless. Ones that you'll be proud to hang on your walls and admire for years to come.

Christina was so organized and easy to work with for our engagement session and wedding! My husband does not like getting photos taken, but after our engagement session with Christina said “okay that was kind of fun”. She makes it easy to be in front of the camera, and took so much time prior to our wedding to make sure she had all the details from the timeline, to family groupings, to must have photos figured out. And every single photo we got is amazing- we’ve gotten so many compliments on them! We would recommend her 1000 times over!

Hello! I have been a bridal hairstylist for the past 9 years and have 20 years of color and styling experience. I worked in NY for the majority of my career and now I am located in the beautiful city of Charleston. The best move I ever made! I trained with several top stylists over the years and love using my knowledge to create styles that my brides envision for their wedding day. I provide onsite hairstyling services for weddings, special occasions and styled shoots in the Charleston area and beyond. Please feel free to ask me any questions Thank you for viewing my page!

Micki Hairartistry was everything and more for our wedding day! Her communication was clear, concise, and provided in a timely fashion throughout the entire process. The quality of her work was truly stunning - she was incredibly flexible, detail-oriented, and listened to all of my requests and concerns. For example, she redid my hair when I initially didn't love it, and also did a trial for my mom, making sure to listen to her needs. My hair turned out absolutely exactly how I had imagined for my wedding day and more. Micki is so kind and talented, and I cannot recommend her highly enough!

  • Serves Wadmalaw Island, SC

Hey there! I’m a Charleston native who has always loved being able to capture moments behind the camera! Overtime my eye drew to capturing the authenticity of moments through movement. And voila! My passion for filmmaking was born. Throughout your wedding process I want to be more of a friend than a vendor, and I don't say that flippantly. I want to be your biggest advocate and number one fan on your wedding day and beyond. My job is to capture the moments in front of me, not manufacture something on my own. I can't wait to get to know you, and I look forward to creating something beautiful, together!

What can’t this girl do?! Jake and I mutually became friends with Jodi early on in our relationship. From then on, she helped Jake plan our engagement on Folly beach, took the most amazing pictures ever, and was a voice memo away in helping me throughout the wedding planning process! When it came down to videography, Jodi was the only answer. We knew we wanted our wedding day to be captured with fun energy, showcasing our families and guests, lots of laughter, and with a touch of intimate moments that made our day special. When Jodi delivered our final video, I was truly speechless and never knew I could feel every single emotion in the span of 10 minutes. Jodi’s talent is unmatched, she is the most transparent and open communicator, as well as one of those people who can make you feel comfortable and confident in any setting.
