We are so excited to be today’s feature on one of our favorite blogs. The Wedding Row is an amazing way to keep up with the Charleston Wedding market and see all the unique ways other brides in the area are celebrating their weddings, not to mention the showcase all the BEST talent the Charleston wedding and event industry has to offer.

Today, they featured a Loluma favorite! See the full post here. Lisa and Josh’s sophisticated and fun Middleton Place extravaganza. Middleton Place is among the best of the best and that goes without saying when you see the gorgeous setting Lisa and Josh enjoyed throughout their wedding celebration. Surprises around every corner, and I can honestly say, this event was jam packed full of fabulous food thanks to Cru Catering, incredible Loluma style and fun entertainment throughout!

Celebrating a Birthday Party the Loluma way…

02.10.2016

The Loluma Team had an amazing start to our weekend last weekend.  Our production manager, Moriah White, celebrated her 40th Birthday, and in true Loluma form, we went all out for it.  What an amazing venue she chose for the festivities, a first for us hosting at Revelry Brewing Co.  What an incredible spot.  The staff was so great to work with, not to mention, tasty brews.  The setting is perfect for a party and our fantastic lighting designer, Christopher, was able to highlight all the fun brew tanks and other industrial elements.  We all showed off our talents with an Epic Lip-sync Battle and enjoyed performances from Kyle Johnson, Charleston’s incredible break dancing, street performer.

What a night!

The Hughes Sisters!

02.5.2016

We have had a few opportunities over the years to work with families for multiple milestones.  With the Hughes family, we were blessed to be a part of each of their amazing daughter’s wedding celebrations.  Lily and Sarah are beautiful, gracious and fun loving women, who come from a tight knit and loving family.  Where the solid foundation of their upbringing brought similarities to their weddings, their differences in personality allowed for so many unique elements, distinguishing one from the other.  No matter their style and priorities, both Lily’s wedding in Charleston and Sarah’s in Savannah spoiled their friends and family with incredible wedding weekend festivities.

We can only assume, after nearly 20 years in the wedding business, we may soon be asked to cross generations within families.  Are there any past Loluma brides who have daughter’s with impending engagements?

Meet Jenna!

01.27.2016

We are so excited to introduce you to our newest member of Loluma.  Jenna Rickoff, came in with the New Year and we are so blessed to have her here.  She has added such a positive and kind support to our team and is so talented with event consulting and coordination. We cannot wait for you all to meet her.  She comes from a strong event background and is already diving right in with our current brides.

Get to know Jenna…

What’s playing in your car right now?  Cassadee Pope.  I actually met her when she came to the Coastal Carolina Fair last year.

Who’s your favorite Super Star?  Adele

How would you describe yourself?  Goofy, fun loving, Clemson fan that isn’t afraid to take risks

What is your favorite food?  Quest dip or french fries.  If I could live off of French fries all day, everyday, I would!

What is your best achievement?  Finishing a half marathon and triathlon a few years ago.  It was such a great experience and taught me how to stay motivated and focused on a goal.

What do you do for fun?  Meet up with friends, cheer on my Clemson Tigers, go for walks on the beach, cook with my man (who is much better skilled in that department than I’ll ever be), and visit family in Greenville.

Name one short term goal?  Expand my cooking and baking skills. I recently attended “In the Kitchen with Bob Waggoner” and had such blast. Watch out Paula Deen!

If a genie gave you a wish what would you wish for?  I would wish to have endless funds to travel the world.  Since I was just in Europe a few years ago, the next places I would really like to go to are Ireland, Scotland, Fiji, Australia, and New Zealand

What’s your Motto?  Life is too short to sweat the small stuff.  Be kind, stay close to your loved ones, and always remember that we all have something unique and wonderful within us that makes this world a better place

Best advice anyone has given you?  “Find someone who loves you exactly for who you are.”  My grandfather (papa) gave me that advice and it has stuck with me.

What can you simply not resist?  Golden Doodle puppies – they are so precious!  Oh, and also the minions 🙂

Nicknames?  Jenna Banana- my mom always called me this growing up, and Jennie Lou-Who

Who would you most likely to have dinner with?  Steve Carrell

Favorite Meal?  Shrimp and Grits from Magnolia.  Mmmm!

What are your aspirations in this position?  I want to expand my creative skill set.  I am looking forward to learning from this incredible team as well as bringing my unique style to events.

What do you most like to do to unwind?  Watch TV – especially Friends reruns or Pitch Perfect with a glass of wine in my hand!
