Two words: HOLY MOLY! If there were ever a dream wedding for a vendor to end the year with, it would be Nicole and Jerome’s fairytale Christmas wedding in Anderson, South Carolina. This couple pulled out all the stops and it was the most epic wedding of our career! 

Nicole and Jerome met well working at Wild Wings and their rock loving souls were destine to be together forever. When meeting with Nicole and Jerome they both said “we do not want the typical wedding reception. We want our reception to be like a rock concert!” Um, come again? Was this real life? Where all our reception DJ dreams coming true or were we just daydreaming? Little did we know, what we had in mind for a ‘rock concert reception’, Nicole and Jerome wanted bigger and better, and we loved every single minute of it! 

They chose to tie the knot at one of our favorite hidden gems in Anderson, Heyward Manor. This venue is the ultimate barn/rustic dreams! After tying the knot, they moved over to The Bleckley Station where it was decked out to the dang nines!! 

From the light up wristbands for guests to the choreographed first dance with their entire bridal party, Nicole and Jerome wanted their reception to be one to remember, and boy would it be one we would never forget! Nicole and Jerome, THANK YOU for allowing Uptown Entertainment to be part of such a magically epic day. We truly could not have imagined it any other way. Be sure to check out all the vendors that came together to make this day happen below, along with all the great photos!

Hallie and Nick approached us about their wedding after we all had the pleasure of working together on another client’s wedding. We are always honored when another wedding professional asks us to be part of their wedding day or special event, and could not wait to watch these two to tie the knot. Hallie and Nick and are a couple that love fiercely and have the best time literally ALL the time. We knew their wedding day was going to be nothing short of epic and full of energy. 

Hallie and Nick chose Junto Coffee for the wedding ceremony and reception venue and it was the perfect fit. Just across from Southern Bleachery located in Taylors Mill, and it was definitely not your typically wedding venue but we loved it! It was a nice breath of fresh air and gave the chance to see what else Taylors Mill has to offer. 

Like we said, Hallie and Nick are full of energy and they showed up and showed out at the reception. Once minute Hallie was doing the worm in her wedding dress, the next minute Nick was having too fun with the cryo cannon. Then we turn around and Nick and Hallie are being lifted in the air by their guests on the dance floor. It was literally never a dull moment and we wish we could relive that reception party over again each week. 

To Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas Worrell, thank you for trusted Uptown Entertainment to make your wedding ceremony and reception truly one that none of us will ever forget. We wish you guys many years of love and happiness, and cannot wait to be on another vendor team with you for our next client. 

Be sure to check out all of Hallie and Nick’s vendors below, along with some of our favorite highlights from the day.

These two love birds have had heart eyes for each other since 2012, and come rain, shine or COVID-19, Brooke and Caleb would see to it that their wedding would take place on June 6th, 2020. These two had dreamed of getting married on that specific day and nothing was going to stop them. Luckily for them, and us, they got married, and we got to be part of one epic party. 

Brooke and Caleb chose to exchange their vows at one of Greenville’s newest venues, Westfield Greenville. This beautiful event and wedding venue is located in the heart of downtown Greenville, South Carolina, and is a blank canvas that can complement any design style. 

It was truly magical watching Brooke and Caleb twirl around the dance floor during their first dance, and it is clear to everyone they cross paths with that they are truly in love. After finishing up dinner, Brooke was ready to get on the dance and boogie with all her friends and family. To Brooke and Caleb, thank you for allowing us to make all your wedding day dreams come true. It was an honor and a privilege being part of your special day alongside of the rest of your amazing vendors (listed below). We wish you a lifetime of love and endless giggles!

From wearing purple on the sidelines of Furman University to being in a sea of crimson down in Alabama, these two college athletes have been chasing each other all over the south since 2016. Gracie and Kevin were a match made in heaven from the beginning and we knew that they were head over heels from each other after meeting them for the first time. They were faced with many challenges throughout the planning process but they braved each one with grace and a smile. 

Gracie and Kevin got chose the Huguenot Loft and Mill as their wedding venue, and we must say, it’s definitely one of our favorite event venues that downtown Greenville has to offer. Check out the history of this incredible venue here. 

Gracie and Kevin ate, drank and celebrated becoming married by dancing the night away on the dance floor. Their guests surrounded them on dance floor all night and showered them with love and joy. Grace and Kevin, we could not have picked a more fun-loving couple to celebrate. Your vendor team (seen at the below of the post) was the true all-star team and it was a blast watching your dreams come to life that day. We wish you both a lifetime full of love and happiness. Cheers!

While meeting with Chelsey and James we knew immediately they would be a couple we would fall in love with! They are both so kind to one another and both very eager about their big day. Chelsey knew exactly what she wanted, how it would love, the order of events and every detail, small or big, in between. 

Chelsey and James got married at one Greenville’s most unique venues, The Rutherford. The Rutherford was built in the 1950’s and still has the original floors, ceilings and brick walls. This venue has a beautiful courtyard that sets the backdrop for any ceremony, big or small. After wrapping up the ceremony, guests can move into the downstairs warehouse for an indoor cocktail, and shortly after have your guests move upstairs for the reception. 

James and Chelsey had a beautiful ceremony, followed by their reception where they surrounded with their family and friends throughout the entire evening. Everyone enjoyed the mirror photo booth as well. Mr. and Mrs. Holland, thank you for allowing us to be part of your special day with your loved ones. It was truly an honor, and we wish many years of love and happiness.

If there ever were a perfect July day for a wedding it would have been Sara and Greyson’s wedding day. Although it was a hot day, there was a nice breeze that was always blowing at the right times. Throughout the entire day, everything seemed to just flow so effortlessly. 

Sara and Greyson chose to have their ceremony and reception at two different locations; both being two of our favorites in the upstate. The chose one of the infamous Larkin’s venues, The L, for ceremony and Revel Event Center for the reception. The ceremony was so stunning with the beautiful tulle draping and simple aisle markers. While the reception was set with beautiful lace linens, gold accents and fresh florals. 

The reception was a full party from start to end! The uplighting, the disco glow sticks, the club cannon – it was everything a wedding couple could dream of. Sara and Greyson, thank you so much for allowing us to be part of your special day! It was absolutely beautiful, and we wish you many more years of love and happiness. Check out all of Sara and Greyson’s AMAZING vendors at the bottom!

They say rain on your wedding day is good thing. The rain symbolizes the washing away your past, while the rainbow filled skies that follows symbolizes the beautiful beginnings that your future holds. Does sideways rain mean the same thing? For those of you that are not familiar with South Carolina during a rainstorm, it ALWAYS rains sideways. Regardless of the sideways rain, Alex and Zach had a beautiful day ahead of them at the Huguenot Loft in downtown Greenville, SC. 

 If you have not been to the Huguenot Loft, you are truly missing out. This venue is stunning; from the exposed brick to the windows overlooking the Reedy River this venue is iconic in the Greenville, SC wedding industry. 

 Happiness and joy filled the entire room throughout the entire day regardless of the obstacles this sweet couple faced. During the ceremony there was not a dry in the house. The sweet moments Alex and Zach shared were ones that everyone felt that day. Their reception was full of energy, excitement and a full dance floor. All of Alex and Zach’s guests surrounded them on the dance floor and with love. 

 Zach and Alex, it was such an honor to be part of your special day. We truly enjoyed watching your family and friends fill your day with some of the best moments of your life. We wish you nothing but years of love and happiness. 

 Check out these amazing photos from their wedding ceremony and reception at the Huguenot Loft. Also, check out of their incredible vendor at the bottom of the post.
