This summer, I had the absolute honor of capturing a luxury styled wedding shoot at Heyward Manor in Greenville, SC, hosted by the talented team at South Carolina Bride Magazine. With an incredible group of creatives, the day was designed to reflect the full story of a wedding day. It captured those quiet, intimate getting-ready moments, heartfelt first looks, dreamy portraits, romantic details, and that unmistakable “just married” joy.
The bridal suite at Heyward Manor is filled with floor-to-ceiling windows, flooding the space with soft, natural light. It was a dream to photograph the elegant gowns provided by The Poinsett Bride, as well as the stunning hair and makeup crafted by the talented Haley of Haley May MUA. Every detail was artfully styled, creating the kind of editorial experience you would expect from a Southern Bride Magazine feature.
The creative direction, led exclusively by Demi with the South Carolina Bride team, allowed us to highlight the romance and elegance that define a true luxury wedding in South Carolina. From sparkling champagne towers featuring Bubbly Pop Bottles to delicate flat lay details designed by Lettered by Steph, every touch felt intentional and timeless.
Luxury Greenville Wedding Venue: Heyward Manor
Of course, the heart of the shoot came alive with our stunning models, who embodied the timeless elegance and joy of a wedding day. The luxurious wedding venue, Heyward Manor, created the perfect atmosphere for a romantic, light and airy Greenville, SC wedding. Surrounded by 650 acres, the venue provides stunning countryside views along with a natural lake. The natural beauty of the venue is something we took advantage of throughout this editorial, as the summer flowers were in full bloom everywhere. The cathedral-like barn with a white exterior and large windows is gorgeous inside and out. It created the perfect backdrop for romantic wedding portraits.
Between the unforgettable details, elegant setting, and the artistry of every creative involved I walked away from this experience so inspired. A huge thank you to South Carolina Bride Magazine for bringing us together and curating such a dreamy wedding experience in the heart of Greenville, SC.
This shoot was truly a 10 out of 10 experience! I am so grateful to have been part of something that celebrated the romance, beauty, and luxury of weddings in South Carolina.
