✨Olivia & Max's summer garden party soirée in Charleston was perfection. 🌿🤎🐝🍑⚡️ It all started with a blind date for these two! Then, with the support of family and friends blossomed into a love worth celebrating. The wedding festivities took place in Charleston, starting with a celebration at the bride’s family home and ending with a beautiful evening under a sailcloth tent at the Governor Thomas Bennett house. Guests came from New Orleans, Texas, and everywhere in between to toast these two! Scroll for more gorgeous details.

What a career high! A beach house. Not just any beach house but an iconic historic home on Boca Grande. So grateful that the clients are just the best and embraced the “old Florida” vibe. 🌞🌴

A powder room in a recently completed South Carolina project sporting some goodies from a few of our Nola favs. @wirthmoreantiques @balzac_antiques @macmaisonantiques #melissarufty

Winding up a wonderful project in South Carolina. Loved this little vestibule “moment” leading into one of the guest rooms. 🌻🌻 #melissarufty

Excited to revisit this wonderful project in Greenville tomorrow for another install. It’s pretty fun to be a guest in the guest room you created! #benefits #myroom 💛 #favoriteintern #melissarufty
