Elopement wedding celebration in Pawleys Island, South Carolina with Paige and Mason:

The Myrtle Beach area is a popular destination for couples wishing to elope and have a simple yet relaxed wedding day without sacrificing a beautiful location. Elopements can be incredibly personal and very romantic. They can also save you time, money and be a lot less stressful than a traditional wedding. This particular elopement had a lot of very meaningful touches. For starters, the cottage belongs to the family of the bride and has been in their family for a very long time. It is full of history and generations of memories. Inside you just felt the joyful memories soaked into the walls.

A special memorial to Paige's late father at the ceremony was also a very emotional touch and one of her must have shots was posing with her Dad's photo. So sweet. The inclusion of Paige's beloved dog and the groom's handsome son also made it even more special. Did I mention that October is also a perfect time for a beach wedding? The weather is perfect!

Although I was only with this couple and family for a two hour shoot I felt right at home and welcomed by them all. It was a pleasure to capture these moments for them. I am sure their formal reception in TN will be just as lovely. 

Congratulations Paige and Mason, and thank you for choosing Michele Coleman Photography!
