Today, White Thread is delivering an explosion of eye candy thanks to the wonderful team over at WED Charleston and the incomparable Marni Rothschild.  So far we’ve gotten a look at Eimile + Drue’s beautiful ceremony at Lowndes Grove (see here and here to catch up).

Next up, the explosion of gorgeousness that is the reception tent.  I love how the color palette here was kept clean and neutral with sparkle and texture added in via the chandeliers and incredibly subtle custom creme sequin linens.  It really imparts a modern element on the whole space and lets the INCREDIBLE florals get the attention they rightfully deserve.  Designed by H.B. Stems out of Beaufort, SC the mix of coral and orange french tulips, garden roses, ranunculus, and peonies are fresh, feminine, springy beauties.

A larger tent was set up for the bar with two smaller adjacent tents to create a VIP cabana-like feel. Modern outdoor lounge furniture from Snyder Lounge completed the look.   Guests could escape the dance party for a breather but still feel like they were in the middle of everything.  The best of both worlds!  WED brought in more color by draping the ceiling of the lounge cabanas with a coral faux dupioni silk.  The result is a stunningly unexpected burst of color.

Don’t you just want to live in that cabana?  I do! I do!  Maybe Ellen and her team can just come build one in my backyard…must figure out how to deal with hurricane season though I suppose…

More coming right up, including an hors d’oeuvres spread that will have you wondering why we ever eat “normal” size portions of anything when the mini versions are so stinkin’ cute.
