Sometimes all we need is a little ribbon on our gold tapers. Ribbon is a very cost effective way to enhance a space. Such a cute way to decorate for a baby shower, bridal shower or luncheon! And bonus: it’s timeless and never goes out of style.

Sip & See: Valentine’s Edition // Cake Table

Celebrations of all kind have something in common, and it is the cake table. Whether you want a classic stand-alone cake or a dessert display, it is always going to be a focal point for your event. We typically recommend a specialty linen on this table. We opted for a fun red and gold option, and it did not disappoint!

Sip & See: Valentine’s Edition ❤️ // Welcome Table

This week we are going to share about our most recent open house. Structured more like a private event than our usual wedding vibe, we played with colors and funky decor 🎀 First up is the welcome table:

The first stop for most of your guests is a welcome table. It’s a great place for a guest book, photos, and florals. This open house was structured like a shower, so we had our sign in sheet and a cute neon sign that said “Let’s Party”. It makes a fun impact, and putting something eye catching near this table will ensure your guests make a quick stop!

Our hurricane couple ❤️

CMM Wedding Snapshots! Although Farrah Fowler and Matthew Calloway were married on the same day as Hurricane Helene, their dream wedding still came to life! The wedding and reception at Hartley House in Batesburg-Leesville flowed seamlessly — a true miracle. Thereafter, they enjoyed a relaxing and well-deserved honeymoon in Cancun! In the Jan/Feb issue Winter Bridal Guide, enjoy wedding snapshots from this past year’s wedding season!

Nichole + Scott // November 2, 2024 - All Inclusive Bespoke Package

Fall and Spring is the obvious wedding season in the South, but who says you have to limit yourself to just two seasons?!

At Hartley House, our property is filled with evergreens like Magnolias, camellias and live oaks that look lush and full, and our grass maintains its color year round thanks to our amazing landscaping team (yes, even in the middle of winter). Adding tent sides and heaters is a way to transform the reception tent to keep guests cozy in the winter, or add fans in the summer for a nice breeze. The options are endless. Schedule your tour today, and we can dive into planning your dream day!
