South Carolina Wedding Inspiration

This event was designed by Grace Forever Weddings to showcase the flow from Autumn to Winter in the form of wedding inspiration. The flowers by Vintage Soul Floral were a large and integral part of the shoot. They were moody and edgy, a coordination of deep jewel tones. We instantly noticed two cast members from Married at First Sight Season 9 in the shoot, Iris Caldwell and Amber Bowles. They both looked stunning in their black dresses!
