Chelsea and Jonathan’s wedding day was so full of joy and Bay side charm. From the perfectly chosen coral and teal, to the coordinating beach inspired details of shells and sand, to the amazing water views and portraits on the bay, the day couldn’t have been more perfect. Chelsea and Jonathan wanted to focus on family and friends for their special day and had a day full of beach inspiration from start to finish for their guests to enjoy.
Extra Special Details
The venue. The couple chose Herrington Yacht Club for otheir wedding! It’s right on the water, the staff is wonderful and it had two floors for them to work with.
Crab dip appetizers. This was the favorite appetizer from the night, and guests agreed!
Table number displays. They made “message in the bottle” table numbers that tied into the beach theme. They were easy, fun and inexpensive to make!
Edible favors. There were seashells, starfishes, sand dollar and ocean heart-shaped cookies that added color to the tables and were delicious.
The outfits. The teal bridesmaid dresses and matching groomsmen tuxes paired with the coral flower arrangements and filled the room with beautiful color.
The Bride’s Advice
♥ Start planning early! We had a 1.5 year engagement, which allowed for us to make decisions little by little, without ever feeling rushed. It also helps to start early so that you get all of your preferred vendors before they are all booked.
♥ Plan to take time during the actual wedding day to spend with just your new husband or wife, just to absorb it all and enjoy each other! The day goes by so fast that you will want to have that moment to look back on.
