The Barn at Valhalla is truly a beautiful location.

They had the most beautiful flowers.

and yummy yummy food.

I have no idea what’s inside this, but it sure looks good.

The most unique thing about the venue was the fireplace. It’s getting hot in here!

Joslynn & Jason Wedding Highlights Video in Mt Pleasant, South Carolina

Joslynn and Jason had their wedding ceremony at Bridgeside Events overlooking the Cooper River and the Arthur Ravenel Bridge here in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. They had a really beautiful wedding and that location was just perfect!

Their wedding reception was aboard the Spiritline Dinner Cruise which went on a tour around Cooper River. They served a four or five course dinner and I must say, this boat had the best food ever! Kudos to the chef!

It was very relaxing being on the boat watching the beautiful scenery pass by, especially during the sunset and at night. Brian and I used to live and work on a cruise ship before so being on water is nothing new to us. It was kinda nostalgic being on a boat again.   For some reason, I was expecting a passenger drill, like you do when you go on a cruise.

Here is their wedding highlights video.

Joslynn’s Bridal Preparation Video in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina

The bridal preparation is always my favorite part of a wedding because there is so much excitement and flurry of activity going on.  There is always a hundred different things going on at the same time that I feel like if I blink, I would miss something important.

Here is the bridal preparation video from Joslynn & Jason’s wedding in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina.

Sunset Photo in Charleston, South Carolina

This is a great sunset shot of Brian taken by Mike Mizzell of Tillman Branch Photography.

We happened to all work together during Joslynn’s wedding in Charleston, SC aboard the Spiritline Cruises. (SilvasPhoto was doing videography and Tillman Branch was doing videography). After a while, we realized that Brian and Mike share the same chiropractor. Small world, eh?
