Wedding Ceremony at Palmetto Bluff

I met Neillie Buttler for the first time in Charleston during Charleston Wedding Week and later at the Engage! in Canada. Neillie is the founder of the Mariée Ami, a wedding planning firm based in Alabama. We’ve done a few weddings together. One wedding was in North Carolina and the second one was a wedding ceremony in South Carolina in Bluffton at a venue called Palmetto Bluff. I am sure if you are into weddings you’ve probably heard of this beautiful wedding venue near Hilton Head and Savannah, GA.

For this wedding ceremony I helped Neillie to arrange ceremony musicians; four harp players, and a string quartet. Honestly, I’ve never heard of a harp quartet and was so happy for this special request! The bride requested Charles Widor’s Toccata as her recessional song. Steven Seigart did the arrangement. I found out that harp quartets actually exists, and also there is some musical repertoire! The string quartet is a pretty common request, but the harp quartet? Have you ever heard of a harp quartet? The harp quartet is so romantic, elegant and sounds so great!

That’s me in those shades with my wonderful Charleston Virtuosi string quartet. The violinist next to me is Adrianne! Adrianne is from Savannah, GA. We also perform together in New York.
