Planning a wedding is one thing—planning an unforgettable, multi-day celebration for 200+ guests in the heart of Charleston is another. At Pure Luxe Bride, we live for these moments, and Sabrina and Mike’s wedding weekend was the epitome of elegance, energy, and guest-focused fun. Set entirely in downtown Charleston, each event took place at a different iconic venue, each with its own personality and purpose, creating a dynamic experience that was beautifully cohesive yet completely unexpected at every turn.

This incredible couple brought together family and friends from across the globe, and our team ensured every detail was expertly designed, flawlessly executed, and uniquely personal. Here’s a look into their unforgettable wedding weekend:

Welcome Party + Mehndi at Palmetto Café

We kicked off the festivities with a colorful and cultural explosion at the Palmetto Café at Charleston Place. Designed as a mehndi celebration honoring Sabrina’s Indian heritage, the event was vibrant and full of joy. Guests were greeted with signature welcome cocktails and treated to intricate henna art by skilled henna artists.

From bold floral installations to lounge vignettes in saturated jewel tones, the evening felt like a curated, celebratory garden party—a true fusion of cultures and a warm, colorful welcome to the weekend ahead.

Wedding Ceremony at The William Aiken House

On wedding day, Sabrina and Mike said “I do” in one of Charleston’s most beloved historic venues—The William Aiken House, nestled in the heart of downtown. This ceremony was classic Charleston meets chic sophistication, with the ceremony held in the elegant walled garden surrounded by lush greenery and timeless architecture.

Guests enjoyed an elevated culinary experience by the Patrick Properties team, and the design highlighted soft, romantic florals, refined textures, and thoughtful nods to the couple’s aesthetic. It was the perfect blend of intimate romance and Southern charm, with every detail reflecting the couple’s style and story.

After Party at The American Theater

What’s a wedding without an epic after party? We transformed the historic American Theater into a late-night disco dream. Guests were greeted with espresso martinis (Sabrina’s way with a dash of Disaronno!) and instantly transported into a world of glamour, rhythm, and serious fun.

With custom fringe chandeliers, shimmering disco balls, and LED-lit dancers, the space was nothing short of jaw-dropping. Miami-based band Rock With U kept the energy electric all night long. This event was a vibe shift in the best possible way, showing off the couple’s playful side and giving guests yet another unforgettable experience.

Post-Wedding Sangeet at Hotel Bennett

Why end on the wedding night when you can keep the party going? The next evening, we hosted a post-wedding sangeet-inspired celebration in the stunning Crown Ballroom at Hotel Bennett—a space known for its grandeur and central downtown location.

But we didn’t just use the ballroom…we transformed it. Think: giant indoor trees, a DJ booth built into the center of the room, and lighting that shifted the space into a full-on club atmosphere. Coastal Charleston blues and crisp whites anchored the decor, while LED robot dancers, Dhol drummers, and unmatched energy filled the night with nonstop dancing and surprises around every corner.

Unforgettable for all the right reasons.

From start to finish, Sabrina and Mike’s wedding weekend was a masterclass in luxury event design and guest experience. With four distinct events across four iconic Charleston venues, the weekend was a celebration not only of love, but of culture, fun, and community.

Our team at Pure Luxe Bride planned, designed, and executed every element—from the timeline to the decor to managing the guest flow—with intention and care. The result? A flawless and stress-free wedding experience for the couple and their guests.
