Betsy and JP 8/15/2009



Betsy and JP were married on the Sunset Deck right at sunset. The weather cleared up right before the ceremony and the scenery was breathtaking. JP and the groomsmen arrived by boat while Betsy and the bridesmaids dressed and put on finishing touches in the bridal suite. Betsy and JP added a thoughful touch by providing monogrammed water bottles to their guests during the ceremony as well as turning their programs into a fan. The ceremony and reception were decorated with touches of the beach and surrounding waters. All of the colors were beautiful shades of cream, ivory, and caramel. The guests and couple danced all night to music provided by Positive Vibes DJ. Seashore Florist provided the beautiful bridesmaids' bouquets, groomsmens' boutonnieres, and the corsages for special loved ones. At the end of the event Betsy and JP had an extra special treat for their guests: a candy bar! The bride and groom departed their fun-filled evening by boat.
