A Dose of Vitamin Sea: Zaya Nurai Island Shoot

By Jenn

One thing we love about beach weddings is that the sea gives you an instant and effortless picturesque background. However, that doesn’t mean that you can no longer add some more touches to an already beautiful setting. That’s what the team behind this shoot did! Inspired by Psamathe, a sea nymph and goddess of sandy beaches, LLG Events pictured her coming out of the waters to find her human soulmate in Zaya Nurai Island. Then they created interesting details like the floral swing, the table setting, and the teepee. All these make up for a fun yet chic beach wedding. If you’re ready to be in awe, scroll down now to see more photos captured by Christophe Viseux Photography. You’ll surely get some dose of vitamin sea too!

Intimate Vow Renewal

By Jenn

Hello, beach brides! We’re sure that even if you are a newlywed or not, this submission of an intimate vow renewal from ALEXIEVENTS will warm your heart. With the pandemic and elopements becoming a trend in France, Charlotte and Hervé’s decided to renew their vows solemnly. Only the couple’s best friends, Gaêl & Floriane, and their cutest chihuahua named Blueberry were present that special day. Their photos proved that time made their love stronger! Isn’t that obvious in the way they set eyes on each other? This shoot took place at the Domaine des Moures, a family-owned estate located in southern France close to Montpellier, with a wonderful backyard and a quiet lakeside view of the Mediterranean Sea. We especially love how Danny of Danny Meier Photography took advantage of natural lighting. Match that with classic boho vibes and autumn colors and viola, everything looks perfect!

If you are choosing a specific theme for your wedding/elopement, make sure you stay true to it throughout the entire planning process. The theme also needs to be close to your heart in order for you to have true inspiration. Take a lot of consideration into the vendors you hire. I see a lot of couples choose the cheapest route when they are eloping because they don’t want to damage their bank accounts – but you will be sorry if that cake is less than good when the time comes to take a bite! You need to be able to trust and love your vendors and many do a lot of elopements. So don’t be afraid to be honest with them and talk to them about your budget, needs and wants. I personally love it when couples are very open with communication with me because it makes my job easier. ~Natalie Landrum/Photographer

Flora Farms Destination Wedding

By Car

And just like that, it’s already December! While we’re here celebrating the best things that happened this year why not start with something elegant, eclectic, whimsical, and of course everything about the beach! This whimsy and fun beach wedding of Dawn and Sean go beyond details and specific design choices. They brought in some interesting design pieces, like the ladder ceremony arch, which was layered with elegant chiffon material, candles, and flowers. Dawn had the idea for lightbulb bud vases which was hand-made and hung from the arch with lanterns for an even more whimsical ceremony. At the ceremony, they channeled fairytale whimsy with a unique ceiling installation which was deliciously elegant. The travel-themed elements were also whimsical! Dawn custom-monogrammed luggage tag escort cards which were hung from a 7-foot tall wooden frame backed with chicken wire (picnic!). They fulfilled the eclectic piece with the layout, which was a mix of one long empirical table, round tables, high-top tables, and lounge seating. The mix of furniture was perfect! Dawn was specific about their colors, which were red, orange, and coral, and worked perfectly for the early summer wedding. Go on and check out what you might have missed through these amazing snaps brought to us by AnnaGomesPhoto down below!

The planning process was effortless and undeniably stress-free due to the early decision my husband and I agreeing to hire a full-time wedding planner. Ours, Bonnie Chase of Events by Bliss. We had a tight budget that we wanted to stick to, and although the expense of a wedding planner can be viewed as a luxury that will take away from the overall budget allocated to the wedding, we knew that we wanted a professional to handle this important event for us, so everyone involved could have a great time. The amount of money we spent upfront to hire Events by Bliss for our wedding saved us tremendously at the end of the day, theoretically speaking. I know that this may not be the case for every couple with every wedding planner. We were extremely blessed and fortunate that luck was on our side, and the stars aligned for us to cross paths (and work with) Bonnie Chase. ~Ashley Lomelin/Wedding Vendor
