Welcome to Greenville Elopement Packages! My name is Penny Reynolds and I am the owner of this company as well as Charleston Elopement Packages!
​
The short story: I started as wedding officiant in Greenville, SC. Moved to Charleston, SC and expanded to full service wedding provider to include planning and photography. After about 8 years, I transitioned away from the large weddings to elopements.
​
Personal Info: I am over 50 years old with over 15 years in the wedding industry and a veteran. I am happily married with a son who is in his 20's and active duty Air Force. The other member of my family is a crazy Australian Shepherd, Beau.
The long story:
I have over 15 years experience in the wedding industry. I started in Greenville, SC with officiating services under the name "Reynolds Treasures" for 2 years. When the opportunity to move to Charleston, SC arose, we jumped on it and I transferred "Reynolds Treasures" to Charleston. While in Charleston I transformed the business from officiating only to a full scale wedding business offering complete packages and planning services. I participated in and managed this business for over 7 years.
After my son joined the Air Force, we moved to Hilton Head, SC as I needed a change since I missed him so much. I sold Reynolds Treasures and took a year off. This is when I realized that I did not want to do the large weddings, but instead specialize in elopements. While in Hilton Head, I opened Southern Charm Elopements! Having performed many positions at Reynolds Treasures (officiant, florist, planner, coordinator, photographer...), I decided I enjoyed the photography the most, and mainly filled that role. Two years later, we decided to move back to Charleston, SC and I sold Southern Charm Elopements.
​
In 2020, Charleston Elopement Packages was born. I pulled together a team of trusted people I had worked with in the past and instant success! I continued focusing on the photography part of the package. You can see samples of my photos at https://www.charlestonelopementpackages.com.
Over the past 2 years, my father was diagnosis with stage 4 Parkinson's and my mother started having some heart issues. My husband's parents had a couple hospital visits as well. So In October 2023, we sold our Charleston house and moved back to Greenville, SC to be closer with family and help our parents.
I have kept Charleston Elopement Packages open since I have a phenomenal team in place there to handle the elopements. I travel there as needed.
​
Now, Greenville Elopement Packages is born! I hope you will be one of our clients, as I want to be part of your love story, and capture your special elopement moments!
