An Elegant, Rustic Wedding at Omni Hilton Head Resort and Spa in Hilton Head, South Carolina
Drawing inspiration from their beach location, Holly White (25 and a stay-at-home mom) and Jordan Carpenter (30 and a commercial loan officer at First State Bank) planned an elegant, rustic bash. Knowing they wanted a destination wedding, the Illinois-based couple chose Omni Hilton Head Resort and Spa in Hilton Head, South Carolina, for their nuptials. “We fell in love with the place right away and knew we wanted to get married there,” Holly says. “Hilton Head had everything we wanted—it was peaceful, relaxing and, most of all, a beautiful location.” The couple worked with A Floral Affair to create stunning arrangements that added a little romance throughout the details and perfectly complemented the peach, ivory and gold color palette. We love all of the DIY elements Holly and Jordan added throughout the day such as the wooden box centerpieces and burlap pouch wedding favors. They really wanted all of the decor to truly complement their laid-back personalities and the stunning site. “We had a beautiful destination wedding in a stunning location, so I didn’t want to take away from the natural beauty all around us,” Holly says. “I just wanted the decor to look relaxed, vintage and rustic, but still elegant.” There are so many details we love! See them all, beautifully captured by Dana Cubbage Weddings, below! A tip for the taking from Holly: “I told myself I’m only getting married once and I want that to be the best experience I have. I did everything that I wanted to within my budget. No matter what your budget is you can get what you want if you really try!”
