Southern Weddings Blog Feature!

A recent wedding of ours has been featured on Southern Weddings Magazine's blog! It's a two part feature; take a look here and here.

DIY Flowers

At our most recent wedding, the bride ordered her flowers from a wholesaler, Fifty Flowers, and made all arrangements and bouquets herself. This is no small feat on Bald Head Island--she had to order them and get them over to the island, and THEN make the arrangements--all the day before her wedding, so that the flowers were fresh! See her posting about how she did it here.

We strung & hung paper lanterns over her ceremony site, which later flipped to be her dance floor for the reception. Most venues on BHI will not do this for you; you have to hire an outside vendor who has insurance. Just another of the many services A Day at the Beach offers!

We're crafty, too!

We were asked to create a greeting sign to help guide day guests getting off the ferry to the correct tram for an upcoming wedding on August 28th. Here's the end result!

Real BHI Weddings: Tiffany + Brian

What could be more appropriate for Bald Head Island than a Coast Guard wedding?! We at A Day at the Beach spent months planning and designing this one, and were thrilled with the end result. We kept a nautical theme, while working to play up the island's natural beauty. The rehearsal dinner was held at Old Baldy --a simple bbq dinner at sunset, with the wedding ceremony and reception held at the Shoals Club. Many thanks to Rachel of Millie Holloman Photography for these amazing photos!
