Amy and Ryan’s June wedding at the Colleton River Club was nothing short of magical—equal parts joyful, heartfelt, and a little cinematic, just like the inspiration behind their day. For Amy, one of her favorite movies has always been Mamma Mia, and that carefree, sun-soaked charm carried beautifully into their wedding design. From intimate details to unforgettable moments, their celebration was a perfect reflection of who they are as a couple.

A Ceremony with a Surprise Twist

As Amy and Ryan exchanged vows, the skies opened up with a light sprinkle of rain, again totally Mamma Mia inspired for this wedding, almost as if nature itself wanted to join in on the emotion of the moment. For less than ten minutes, guests laughed under umbrellas and embraced the serendipity. Then, as quickly as it came, the rain gave way to a golden glow. The clouds cleared, leaving behind a breathtaking sunset that set the tone for the rest of the evening.

A Reception Full of Heart

Their reception was an intimate gathering of family and close friends—a setting that felt more like a warm dinner party than a formal affair filled with brightly colored flowersinspired by Mamma Mia agains the backdrop of Colleton River. Amy, ever true to her fun-loving spirit, changed into high-top sneakers for the celebration. They weren’t just any shoes, though—they were the very pair she wore on her first date with Ryan, making them the sweetest hidden nod to their love story.

Personalized Touches

One of the most thoughtful details of the day was their custom monogram crest, designed especially for their wedding. The crest made an appearance on everything from their décor to their cake, weaving their story into every corner of the celebration. And speaking of cake—Amy and Ryan paired theirs with a truly Savannah favorite: Leopold’s ice cream, served straight from a cart. Guests delighted in the playful mix of tradition and whimsy as they enjoyed the sweet treats together.

Dancing, Singing, and Sparklers

As the evening unfolded, laughter and song filled the air with ABBA music from Mamma Mia playing frequently. Guests joined Amy and Ryan on the dance floor, singing along and soaking up every joyful beat. The night ended on a dazzling high as the couple made their grand exit beneath a shower of sparklers, surrounded by the love and cheers of their closest family and friends.

A Night to Remember

From the first sprinkle of rain to the last sparkler fading into the night, Amy and Ryan’s Colleton River Club wedding was a day full of magic, meaning, and joy. Inspired by Mamma Mia and made uniquely their own, it was the kind of celebration that perfectly blended heartfelt sentiment with pure fun. To see more wedding like this head here.
