Brittany & Mark’s wedding day was a true blend of romance, elegance, and a touch of Disney magic. Held at the historic Bleckley Station in downtown Anderson, SC, their celebration brought together high-end wedding style with whimsical nods to the things they love most.

The Venue: Bleckley Station

Once a bustling train station, Bleckley Station is now one of Anderson’s most sought-after event spaces. With its exposed brick walls, high ceilings, and dramatic lighting, it offers a warm yet grand setting that can be dressed up for any style—especially a formal wedding like Brittany & Mark’s. Its location right in downtown Anderson also makes it easy for guests to enjoy the city between events.

The Disney Details

From the very start, Brittany and Mark’s day was sprinkled with thoughtful Disney touches. Brittany walked down the aisle to Edelweiss. Even her timeless gown, The Maria, felt inspired by our mutual love for The Sound of Music. After saying “I do,” the newlyweds walked back down the aisle, hand in hand, to the Fantasmic theme. I’m not crying, you are!

Inside the reception, guests were treated to a truly unique feature—a live painter capturing the evening as it unfolded. And as if the night couldn’t get any more memorable, Brittany’s dad made a surprise appearance dressed as Elvis, bringing the house down with his performance.
