Kelsey and Sean’s Corolla wedding was something out of a dream! And so special for many reasons! Between our personal connection to this sweet couple and the fact that they were one of the unlucky couples that had to reschedule their wedding multiple times. But I’d say it was worth the wait for this dreamy intimate beach wedding in the Outer Banks!
Sean and Kelsey are actually old friends of ours going all the way back to middle school as Branden has been close friends with Sean’s older brother since then! He was even a groomsman in our own wedding! Getting to be a part of the wedding for a couple that you’ve seen grow up and have known through their entire courtship (14 years of dating!) is just so special! It also served as a great excuse to drag Branden to the wedding with me to carry this 30-week pregnant lady’s bags!
They had originally planned on a big hotel wedding in Virginia Beach in 2020, but after a few reschedules, they decided to go back to the drawing board and plan a new vision for their wedding day. They looked to a place that is special to both of them- the Outer Banks! They found and booked The Pine Island Lodge in Corolla that would not only bring their dream beach wedding vision to life, but also allowed their friends and family to stay in the house with them the week leading up to their wedding!! What a fun way to celebrate your marriage and spend some real quality time with all those that have come to celebrate!
And when their wedding day finally came, it was everything they dreamed of! A windy, but gorgeous day with all their friends and family finally gathered to see them become husband and wife! I’m so glad that through all the changes in plans, I was able to capture it!
Love that they all wore Brew Thru shirts while getting ready! An OBX staple!
Have you ever seen a more stunning bride??!!
I love that Kelsey had Sean do a spin for her!
Those eyes!!!
Back to the beach for dreamy sunset pictures!
They had two iconic OBX desserts for their guests- Surfin Spoon and Duck Donuts!!
Branden and I got to hop in the Tabb High Alumni photo since we also went there!
