This beauty of a wedding is coastal elegance done right. Ashley and Kevin love the outdoors and they could not have chosen a more spectacular location than the beautiful Surf & Sand Resort. For the ceremony, pretty blush, coral, and peach florals were combined with gorgeous cascading greenery, a birch wood arch, and crystal chandelier to frame the sparkling ocean backdrop. Lovingly thoughtful details were found all throughout. In memory of Kevin’s father who has passed, custom sunglasses were placed on each chair for guests to wear during the ceremony in his honor and to take home. Their “flowergirls”, Ashley’s grandmothers, carried in white roses in memory of those who will always be present in their hearts.
We loved being able to design their beachy chic programs, fun and commemorative signage, seating chart, menus cards, place cards, and table numbers (which included their pet names for each other — does it get any sweeter?!). At cocktail hour, Ashley and Kevin’s guests were in for a treat as they were greeted with surprise performances from a fabulous magician. The celebration continued as guests moved to the reception, oh-so-romantic with candles everywhere and warm amber lighting. Two guest table designs — which included alternating teal blue and champagne colored linens, sea glass blue and coral goblets, and shimmering gold accents — really brought out the “surf meets the sand”. The night ended on a sweet and savory note… what better way to conclude this beachfront stunner than with a gelato cart and taco bar? It was truly a celebration not to be missed!
