May is one of the most beautiful months for a wedding here on the Outer Banks - warm, mild weather, lower priced home rentals, less crowds, and *usually* less bugs! Here's a great example of a wedding that took full advantage of the beautiful May weather, having all of the dining tables outside and reserving the veranda for dancing purposes only!
May 21st, 2011
There were lots of different favors that combined the aspects of their wedding: the beach (ceremony) and golf (reception)!
**Helpful Hint: Although these centerpieces are stunning, they are NOT meant for an outdoor beach wedding. We cannot control how strong the sea breeze will be on any given day, so tall, top-heavy centerpieces may not fare too well. In fact, these centerpieces were originally filled with water, not sand as you see here. The wind got hold of a few of them, so just minutes before the guests started arriving, my team and I scrambled to find sand and fill them to weigh them down as best we could! Good thing we're close to a beach with sand and on a golf course with sand traps :) The same tip goes for votive candles/tea-lights - unless protected enough by glass, they won't stay lit!**
