We were so honored and thrilled to have the opportunity to gather approximately 50 Charleston area moms (and a few dads!) on April 30 in honor of motherhood. In partnership with Dr. Smith’sPink-a-Blue 4D Ultrasound and Chicken Salad Chick we welcomed dozens of mothers and moms-to-be to Bloom, an event designed specifically for new and expectant moms in Charleston.

The Venue :: Pink-a-Blue 4D Ultrasound Studio

Jessica at Pink-a-Blue welcomed all of us with open arms. We loved being able to share her 3D/4D ultrasound studio with our guests, and all attendees left the event armed with a special offer thanks to our hosting venue as well. Pink-A-Blue provides a safe way to bond with your baby before their birthday! Licensed sonographer Jessica offers gender reveal sessions as well as 3D/4D imaging to capture baby’s features in the this trimester!
