Abby and Will met in French class the spring semester of their junior year at Emory University in Atlanta, GA and by the second day of class, Will was already choosing the seat next to Abby.  It didn’t take long before he started to carry her books and walk her to her next class… if you ask him though, he’ll say he tried for months and months to ask her out, but sweet little Abby was completely oblivious!  Good thing she finally caught on and gave Will a chance to win over her heart because look at them now!! They’re living in Chapel Hill and have the most adorable Golden Retriever fur baby named Lilly, which you’ll see when you scroll through their gorgeous wedding photos!  Their wedding was one of our absolute favorites of all time at Lowndes Grove for so many reasons!  For one, Abby is an incredible oil and watercolor painter and she hand painted her entire invitation suite along with some other gorgeous wedding stationery for their big day!  (If you’re looking for someone to paint your wedding venue, your new house, or even your furbabies, EMAIL HER!  She’s incredible and has already painted out little “Home On Hickory” and gorgeous portraits of Cash and Boone for us! We’re obsessed and love that we’ll have a little piece of her talent in our own home!)  Back to the wedding though, our other favorite thing about their wedding day was the fact that they used the rooms in the historic house and the upstairs porch for their seated dinner!  The head table was out on the front porch and Abby + Will’s friends toasted them for hours, while the sun set and the stars came out!  It was pretty magical and it felt as if their wedding was held at one of Abby + Will’s rich Southern grandparent’s home on the water!!  Swoon!  We’re pretty sure with how gorgeous the gals of Mac & B Events decorated it, how delicious the food was, and how in love Abby + Will were, their guests will be talking about their wedding for years to come!!  So, without further adieu… we bring you Abby + Will’s gorgeous Lowndes Grove wedding in Charleston, SC!

See what I mean about how gorgeous this perfect wedding was?!!  Congratulations Abby + W!!  We hope marriage has been more than you ever dreamed it would be!
