Hellen and Robby’s Mount Pleasant Wedding

Hellen and Robby were high school sweethearts…then they were college sweethearts…and now they’re husband and wife!

We’ve been fortunate enough to know these two and their wonderful families since the first time they went to a spring formal together, and we were delighted to help capture their beautiful wedding day!

The wedding was held in Mount Pleasant, at the gorgeous home of Hellen’s grandmother. Apart from family and friends, the ceremony and reception were well-attended by furry friends.

Some were more sharply dressed than others, but then, you’d have to be insane to try to put an outfit on a cat. 

Now, here’s the part where you get to feel like a slacker. Hellen made her wedding dress. Wait, I’m not done. She also designed it. Short of growing the cotton from which it’s woven and personally mining the ore from which the corset ribs are made I don’t think she could have been more involved. (If you know Hellen’s industriousness, you know she probably at least considered the cotton part…) In any case, the result was amazing as you can see!

And here is Hellen’s handsome groom. I’m fairly certain Robby tied his own tie.  ;-)

We got to share a wonderful moment as Hellen’s dad saw her in her dress for the first time. (Brides, you should do this!)

And finally it was time for the ceremony!

After the lovely couple tied the knot, everyone retired to the backyard with its gorgeous waterfront view for delicious southern food and, of course, cake.

Hellen and Robby – salt (and pepper) of the earth.

The view started out amazing and only got better from there.

Everybody had a great time, though I fear the cat may have partied a little too hard.

As the sun began to set we made our way to the dock for some photos of Robby and Hellen.

After a day that continually promised rain but never delivered, we were treated to a breathtaking sunset for our newlyweds.

As the sun went down and the moon came up, the celebration continued.

Hellen and Robby, we wish you a wonderful life together filled with creativity, great food, and the kind of love that comes only from above.
