FAQ

SOME THINGS TO CONSIDER FOR YOUR WEDDING AT Lowndes grove

WHERE SHOULD WE

GET READY AT?

Definitely at Lowndes Grove!

 

There are two dedicated spaces in the house for everyone to get ready with their wedding party and these spaces are filled with beautiful light which makes for amazing getting ready & detail photos!

WHERE SHOULD WE HAVE THE CEREMONY & WHAT TIME DO YOU RECOMMEND?

The side lawn by the dock will bring you pretty close to the Ashley River but the light is hit or miss at that location.

 

Most people do their ceremony in front of the home with the Ashley River in the background, but don't rule out a ceremony directly in front of the house either!

 

Our recommendation for your ceremony time depends on if you're doing a First Look or not:


You're doing a First Look - start at least 2 hours before Sunset

 

You're NOT doing a First Look - start at least 3 hours before sunset

WHAT ARE THE

RECEPTION OPTIONS?

We’ve seen receptions take place on the oyster tabby patio as well as al-fresco under cafe lights on the front lawn!

 

For elopements or intimate weddings you could also use the piazza on the top floor.

 

We highly recommend adding additional lighting like uplighting and candles because they really make a huge difference once the sunsets.

FOR HOW LONG & WHERE

SHOULD WE PLAN

TO TAKE PORTRAITS?

You could absolutely do 100% of your photos at Lowndes Grove and use both the indoor and outdoor spaces!

 

If you want any oak trees with spanish moss though we could pop down the street to Hampton Park.

OUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT
