{Teresa + Dustin @Postcard Inn}

Dustin wore khaki pants, tan vest, and a very cool tan fedora.  The boutienners were made of pearls, burlap and shells.  Teresa was simply stunning in her lace gown and starfish necklace.  Their dog Rocky, who is very special to them was even able to come with and be a part of getting ready and the reception.  He is so cute!  They did a "first touch", not first look:-)  Such a sweet and priceless moment.  They whispered I love you from each side of the "barn doors" where they were separated while holding hands on the side.  It was a sunny cool day on the beach for their ceremony, and when they were doing the unity sand and it was taking a while for the sand to go in the holder.  The pastor joked.."Good things take time and like love and marriage, don't happen over night!"  The reception was on the lawn of the post card inn.  They had a coca cola theme/beach theme.  The tables were adorned with old vintage coke bottles, fish nets, and starfish. They had a "coca cola toast" when the bridal party entered.  All the guests were given old fashioned glass coke bottles to toast the new Mr. and Mrs.  They danced under the trees with beautiful lanterns hanging above.  We were able to slip out for a few moments and take some photos of the couple in the groom's uncles old little hot rod truck, so cool!  As the evening went on, it was one of those nice evenings where it cools off and everyone gathered around the fire pit.  It reminded us of a camp out...everyone sitting around telling stories from the past and just enjoying their time together.  Such a fun and special couple! Congrats Dustin and Teresa!! xoxoxo

{Megan + Matt @Postcard Inn}

"Uncle Matt here comes your girl!" that's the sign Matt and Megan's ring bearer proudly held as he walked down the aisle!  Megan and Matt have a pretty awesome story of how they met.  They were both on college internships at Disney and haven't been apart except in miles, but not anymore!  They live in Ohio now and their guests traveled from all over to including even France I believe to celebrate with them!  Navy, charcoal, and green and white florals decorated the lawn for their ceremony and the ballroom for their reception.  PCI has so many awesome places for photographs, old license plates, beautiful sunsets, lots of trees, and paddle boards.  They had the cutest green and navy stationary and the most amazing cake table.  The groom's cake had all their favorites sports teams rolled into one:-)  Matt's dad gave a hilarious toast, you definitely had to be there!  Their entire day was so fun and laid back and we captured so many wonderful moments.  Congrats Megan and Matt!! xoxoxox

{Caroline + Mike @Postcard Inn}

It was a beautiful sunny Florida day. Caroline wore the most beautiful two toned gown! It had an elegant twist tie at the bodice.  Mike wore a J Crew suit with Sperry boat shoes. When we asked them how they met the bride blushes and said "in a pub" "how romantic"! Then laughed! But you would have thought they were high school sweethearts with the beautiful bond and love they share. While getting ready Mikw showed us the way he proposed...He and Caroline love Taco Bell, and on a trip to FL he had a custom hot sauce packet made with "will you marry me" on it! So funny and creative!  The ceremony was on the lawn at the Postcard Inn. The guests had cute little aqua fans at each seat to cool themselves off with. The groom smiled in awe as his beautiful bride to be was escorted down the isle. There was a moment of "oh no" then laughter when the ring bearer dropped the rings when handing them to Mike.  The reception was under the canopy of trees and lanterns, also on the lawn. Tables were adorned with candy vases and bouquets of smiley face lollipops for the kids tables and the rest of the tables had beautiful clusters of roses. Mason jars serve as water glasses and starfish place card holders were at each seat. The perfect setting for an outdoor beach wedding.  The best man, brother of the groom, wrote his best man speech on the back of a paper plate:-)  Mike surprised Caroline with a gift that was a framed picture of their 2 dogs all dressed up since they couldn't be there.  Caroline changed into a stylish "mini dress" so she could get her groove on the dance floor and the groom changed into shorts!  Everyone flocked to the dance floor when the brides "song" came on..."Sweet Caroline".  It doesn't get any better than that! Congrats you 2!! xoxoxo
