Weekend Wedding at Lowndes Grove



Over half the Tiger Lily staff was involved in the setup for a gorgeous wedding this past weekend at Lowndes Grove, planned by our very own Lindsey Shanks.

A new chuppah was added to the growing collection, this one had a delicate lace fabric canopy and framed the couple with lithianthus, hydrangea, and white roses. Chuppah setup is usually an hour and a half long process, but thanks to every one who helped it only took about thirty minutes!

Lowndes Grove Plantation provided a scenic backdrop for both the ceremony and the reception. The historic main house was built in 1786 and is just as beautiful inside as out. With it behind them and the Ashley river infront, guests had almost stepped back in time.
