Just got engaged but we are looking at several options in Charlotte and in the lowcountry of SC. I went to the Ritz today and really liked it!

We are getting married in CLT in November! Hooray.

Our Ceremony is at St. Patricks but the reception will be at The Big Chill who do all their catering in house (which was big for my family). Two vendors that we have squared away that I am so excited towork with are Tonya at Poprock Photography and Cake Lady Jill.

Still looking for hair and makeup so hoepfully I will find some recs from you other CLT brides!

Another Charlotte bride here! After getting engaged in February, we've been from the courthouse to Vegas to Mexico back to local wedding. We are on a tight budget of about 6k and are going to finalize the venue by the 1st week of August. I'm 99% sure that we are going with Francis Beatty Park but we are going to go look at it again also the other park in Pineville. Looking forward to this journey and learning great tips from other brides!! Also if anyone can suggest a good affordable caterer please do. I am looking into 2 that are in our budget but open to checking out a couple others as well.

My FH and I are getting married at my former church because the church we go to now doesn't have a sanctuary. We are having our reception there and are leaning toward Family Catering in Huntersville for the food -- they come highly recommended in that area.
