I had a great opportunity to photography an unusual and unique wedding in Murrell’s Inlet, South Carolina, near Myrtle Beach. There are so many things to blog about so I will be writing about this wedding in two posts.
The wedding was held in Wachesaw Plantation Club.
Here is the bride overlooking Waccamaw River.
The bride and groom decided to see each other before the ceremony to be able to do some portraits with friends and family.
They had guests from all over the country and all over the world.
Instead of having somebody officiate the wedding, they had friends and family read passages or sing instead.
The bride and groom read some passages too.
Here is the bride and groom.
Location: Kimball’s, Wachesaw Plantation Club, Murrell’s Inlet, South Carolina
Wedding Photographer: Silvas Photo + Video : Weddings, Events, Portraits
Wedding Videographer: David Frantz www.davidfrantz.com
Catering: Charlene Sitas wpccatering@wachesaw.com

Here is the bride in their reception venue at Kimbell’s in Wachesaw Plantation in Murrell’s Inlet.
I thought these black table napkins were just so elegant!
During the reception, they had a little game where the bride and groom were sitting back to back and the host asked questions like, “Who’s the better cook?”, “Who is more creative?” and the bride and groom had to answer by raising the right shoe.
In lieu of the usual reception fare such as the first dance, cake cutting, etc., the bride and groom opted to have a mini-talent show instead to showcase the many talents of their friends and family. I have never seen so much talent in one room. They had people singing, tap-dancing, playing the harmonica, playing the guitar, playing the violin, doing a magic act and doing a baton routine.
Here is a particularly crowd-pleasing performance during the talent show.
These two little girls were attentive throughout the entire show.

Here is what Amy had to say about her wedding photos:
Dear Honey and Brian,
We received the pictures, thank you! They are great, some really spectacular ones! Please let me know if you ever need me to give a recommendation, I would be happy to do that. I feel quite lucky that I found you on such short notice, thank you for your hard work!
I wish you the best, I am sure that you will be very successful in this career.
Sincerely,
Amy

Wedding photography is one of the most important parts of the wedding. After the wedding, the flowers will wilt, the food will be eaten, the decorations will be thrown away, but the wedding photos and the wedding album will stay with the family for years and years to come. Most people still have their parents’ or grandparents’ wedding albums 10, 20, 50 years after the wedding.
The wedding day is the one day in a person’s life that they actually NEED a professional photographer. The bride looks more beautiful on this day than any other day in her life. She has probably spent hundreds or thousands of dollars on the wedding dress, her makeup, her hairstyle, her shoes and her accessories. You need a professional photographer to make sure that you and your wedding are captured in the best way possible.
How to choose a wedding photographer
Price
A major consideration for most wedding couples is the price. Some couples allot 10% of their wedding budget for the photographer; others allot 60% of their wedding budget. It all depends on how important wedding photography is in your priorities.
Wedding photographers range anywhere from $900 - $5000. Usually, the higher you pay, the better quality photography you will get. This is because, in general, better wedding photographers are able charge more. Sometimes, you will luck out and get somebody really good but still in the early part of their career so you can get a lower price.
Generally, depending on your needs, it is cheaper to buy a whole package than buying a la carte.
Wedding Photography Package
In today’s digital age, it is very important to own a CD of your wedding photos. Make sure your wedding photography package includes a CD of your high-resolution images that you will be able to print, view and share from, or that it is relatively inexpensive to purchase it from your wedding photographer.
Style
There are different styles of wedding photography.
-
Traditional Wedding Photography
This is the photographic style from our parents’ and grandparents’ wedding albums. In traditional wedding photography, the photographer poses and sets up everything. This produces very pleasing, formal, “perfect” images which sometimes might seem too unnatural or contrived.
-
Photojournalistic Wedding Photography
(also called documentary, candid photojournalism)
In photojournalistic wedding photography, the photographer captures moments as they happen and doesn’t direct any action at all. The resulting photographs look more natural but might be too gritty sometimes.
When you find a wedding photographer that you like, book him or her as soon as possible to ensure their availability. Most wedding photographers reserve dates on a first-come, first-served basis so make sure you book them so you don’t miss out.
