   I do not have photos to send, but, I can share a beach wedding experience:

   The bride wore a tea length dress and had a floral wreath in her hair instead of a veil (veils blow all over the place on the beach, ruining pictures). He wore a crisp white button up shirt, a pair of tan dockers with the cuffs rolled up to his ankles and a navy blue blazer just for the ceremony. Oh, they were both barefoot. She wore coral nail polish on her fingernails and toenails. They were married under a simple arbor decorated with coral and turquoise tulle.

   Her "aisle" was lined with shells where colored turquoise and coral sand was scattered in swirl designs. Folding chairs were set up for guests with sample pots of sunscreen on each chair. Every other aisle chair had a tulle "bouquet" of coral and turquoise with shells glued here and there. It was so lovely. An usher poured lemon aid to quench the thirst of the guests. The lemon aide was yellow, of course, but the ice cubes were made out of raspberry kool aid (turquoise blue). It was so pretty and refreshing.

   There was a beach side pavilion, so that is where the reception took place. A caterer had set up a raw bar with clams, oysters and shrimp. We had lobster and seafood newburg, corn on the cob and salad. The cake looked like a sand castle. The tables were decorated with tall glass vases with shells in coral and turquoise sand. Come to think of it, the only flowers were carried by the bride.

   It was a great time. Everyone was dressed causally in sundresses and men showed up in shorts. It was one of the most memorable weddings I have attended.
