Memorable Sarah & Zach’s Pretty Place Elopement 2023

January 9, 2023

Elopement at The Pretty Place

If you have never heard of The Pretty Place Chapel, then be sure to check it out!  It is a public access location connected to a YMCA youth camp outside of Greenville, SC.  Even though it is public access, you can rent out the space for a reasonable price.  There is a two-hour minimum rental, but that is really all the time you need to do a small ceremony and get your photos.

Be sure to stick around after the photos to read a little more about the couple in the Q & A.

It was my pleasure to join Sarah and Zach for their January 2nd elopement to the Pretty Place Chapel in South Carolina.  It was the perfect way to start off my 2023 wedding season.  Weddings don't really pick up until the Spring, but I loved being able to shoot their intimate elopement.  We were blessed with abnormally warm weather for January, so it made the day even more enjoyable. Sarah and Zach were joined by some of their closest family, most of whom came in from Middle TN and Charlotte, NC.

COUPLE'S Q&A

Date of the Session & Location

When and where did you go on your first date?

How did Y'all meet?

JD’s on 9-12-20

I saw him across the room at a local small-town restaurant/bar and did something completely foreign to me…grabbed his name from the bartender and added him on Facebook. Our first date soon followed a couple of weeks after and we haven’t been apart since.

Tell me about your first date together?

How did you fall in love?

We had only messaged…never talked over the phone. First date was at another local bar…me, him, and another couple (his dear friends).

Easily…quicker than ever before…we couldn’t get enough of each other and still can’t even two years later!

When and where did he/she propose?

What are you most excited about for your wedding?

We just went on a week-long vacation in my favorite town > Whitefish, Montana. We arrive on Oct 8th and be proposed the night of Oct 9th!

We already feel married…we are just super excited to make it official and desperately wanting great photos!

What is your most favorite thing about each other?

How have you grown as a couple since you first started dating?

We both said the same thing…we can make each other laugh any given time of day in any situation!

We don’t get overly excited about anything major…we are each other’s calm!

Favorite quirk about each other?

How do you feel most loved by your partner?

He is needy and it always happens when I’m needy too which is PERFECT. He says when I over-drink which isn’t often, that I get very chatty and its cute

He says when I wake up every morning at 4:30 to make his lunch for work. He tells me he loves me no less than 20 times a day and always randomly

What were first impressions of each other?

List any vendors represented in your session (ie. Ring, Dress, Shoes, MUA, Florist, etc.)

Funny but young since he’s 8 yrs younger than me. He said he thought I was beautiful.

Ring is from Jared's
