We are thrilled to announce that The NotWedding is returning to Charleston for round two this summer at one of our favorite Charleston wedding venues, Boone Hall Plantation in Mount Pleasant on Wednesday, July 9th. So mark your calendars! The ceremony is planned for 7:00 pm and already has quite the extensive line-up of Lowcountry wedding vendors. The NotWedding is a bridal show alternative in the form of a big, fake wedding. “Wedding Guests” are brides- and grooms-to-be who enjoy a touching ceremony, a tasty dinner and a dance-party reception while truly experiencing the wedding vendors in action. Not to mention, The Not Wedding always creates some serious prettiness and dreamy inspiration for your big day. You can check out The Not Wedding Charleston which was held at the Rice Mill Building last year.

Those attending will experience a perfectly planned “wedding” and have the opportunity to meet the vendors (including The Click Chick Photography, Clay Austin Photography & Scarlet Plan & Design) behind the scene. The bride and groom featured throughout the event are actually a married couple from the Charleston area that will be using the event to renew their vows.

Tickets include an emotional (fake) wedding ceremony encouraging strong marriages, a delectable catered dinner, and a reception full of drinks, dancing and dessert. The NotWedding also boasts a handful of surprises planned for the guests throughout the evening.

Callie Murray, owner of The NotWedding, believes her company offers a revolutionary twist to the traditional bridal show: “The NotWedding allows brides-to-be to get a feel for how wedding vendors would actually perform on their wedding day, and wedding vendors love being able to truly show off what they do and how they work under the normal pressures of a wedding day.”
