This weekend was a study in kindness, hospitality, and intention, starting with an amazing couple, and extending out to every part of the creative team. Over eight days, a back field at his family's polo farm was transformed. What began as a simple idea, to lead guests through the evening, became a 3-chapter living experience of design that unfolded like a book, beautifully from one moment to the next.

For cocktail hour, guests stepped into the “library,” imagined as the heart of the family home. Rich textures, layered details, and a custom hat bar gave a sense of welcome and a good bit of fun. The second chapter, dinner & dancing, captured the essence of a low country autumn in moss green, espresso brown, and warm light dancing through it all. 

After hours of dancing, we pulled back the (literal) curtain to reveal a third space—a cozy, velvet-draped room for the after party. 

It was a weekend to remember, fitting for a couple who generously welcomes people they love into their hearts & home.
