Wedding Day Transportation 

To make getting to Lowndes Grove easy and stress-free, transportation will be provided for all guests. Trolleys will pick up from both The Francis Marion Hotel (King Street) and The Lindy Renaissance Hotel (Wentworth St.) We recommend arriving at either pickup location by 4:15 PM to ensure boarding by 4:30 PM for departure to Lowndes Grove ahead of the ceremony as trolleys will not loop. While parking is available on-site, we highly encourage guests to take advantage of the provided transportation. At the end of the evening, trolleys will depart Lowndes Grove at 10:30 PM with stops at our after-party at Uptown Social, as well as return drop-offs at The Francis Marion Hotel and The Lindy Renaissance Hotel. We can’t wait to celebrate with you all!

Transportation 

Peyton and Cole first met in high school during their junior year through mutual friends. Soon after meeting, they started officially dating. Peyton took Cole to her junior year prom. They shared young, fun, and loving memories together but then, life pulled them in different directions. Cole went off to UNC Wilmington, and Peyton to University of Alabama. They stayed in touch here and there, but it wasn't until they came home for the holidays that they reconnected where they realized that spark was definitely still there. From that point on, every break from college was something they looked forward to. Some of their favorite memories were made during the summers Peyton's family spent at Wild Dunes, near Charleston. Cole would come visit, and Charleston quickly became a special place for them. Eventually, they made things official again - this time long distance. It wasn't always easy being over 9 hours apart, but through the miles and missed weekends, they learned how to love and support each other in ways that made them even stronger. After college, they both returned home to Charlotte, where it all started - just a little older, a lot more in love, and ready to start forever together. Now they are here, getting married, and we couldn't be more excited to celebrate with all of you - the friends and family who have supported them every step of the way!
