Alex Murdaugh’s surviving eldest son, Buster Murdaugh, married his fiancée, Brooklynn White, in a lavish Lowcountry ceremony on May 3.
The couple tied the knot at Coosaw Point, once a private hunting preserve now serving as an event venue, in Beaufort, South Carolina. This is the same location where Alex Murdaugh faced trial for financial crimes after being convicted of the murders of his wife, Maggie, and younger son, Paul, in 2021.
Photos shared on Instagram capture a charming ceremony beneath a sailcloth tent with views of marshland on the Coosaw Point property. The tables were adorned with green and white linens, and the floral decorations featured blue and white hydrangeas along with other greenery.
White donned an off-the-shoulder gown with her hair styled in a chic updo, while Buster sported a white jacket, black bow tie, and black dress pants, complemented by a monogrammed belt.
“My biggest thing that I want people to realize that there are always two sides of the story. Now they can pick which one they want to believe, but I think there’s a heck of a lot that still needs to be answered about what happened.”

When asked whether he believes the term “psychopath” was a fair assessment of his father, Buster told McCallum that he thinks “there are characteristics where you look at the manipulation and the lies and the carrying out of that such, and I think that is a fair assessment.”
The disgraced South Carolina lawyer was also sentenced to 27 years for his financial crimes in a state case in November of last year.
Federal prosecutors recommended a sentence of 17 to 22 years in prison for the nearly two-dozen crimes, including bank fraud, wire fraud and money laundering, stemming from his schemes to steal millions from his clients and the firm where he served as partner.
