11.11.11

November 11th, 2011 was the biggest day in the wedding world this year and marked our final wedding of the 2011 season here at The Currituck Club! I would like to thank everyone who made this year so successful, including all of the Brides & Grooms and their friends and families, the amazing OBX wedding vendors, and my staff here at the Club! We're excited to catch our breath for a few weeks but are already looking forward to a great 2012 season.

Heather and Devin were a great couple to close the season out with - their love for each other shows in everything they do and they are so easy-going! The combination of parasols and lots of candlelight made for a whimsically romantic evening, despite the unusually chilly weather. Congratulations Heather and Devin!

Happy Planning!
Ashley

A Local Connection

There's something even more special about a wedding where the Bride and Groom have a connection to the location! In this case, John and Lori have both spent quite a few summers in Corolla, and John even worked a few weddings at The Currituck Club back in the day :) The bright Tiffany Blue and Poppy Red that Lori chose for the decor really brightened up an unusually chilly October Saturday and everyone kept warm by dancing the night away! Congratulations John and Lori - Thanks for letting us be a part of your big day!

Happy Planning!

True Love & True Blue

Sarah and Chris are made for each other, and that was made very apparent this past weekend! The Currituck Club had the honor of hosting both their rehearsal dinner and wedding reception and enjoyed every minute of planning and then celebrating with this couple and their families. They picked amazing food & great drinks to serve their guests and decorated with one of my favorite colors - navy blue! Congratulations Sarah and Chris Marsh!

Happy Planning!

Kind Words from Cathy Peters, Mother of the Bride:
"I would like to thank you and the staff at the club for a perfect wedding. Everything went according to plan. You were great to work with and I would not hesitate to have daughter #2's wedding at The Currituck Club!"

Thank you, Cathy!

Pretty in Pink

Homeowner's Weekend was topped off with a very special wedding - the daughter of two of our club members! The decor was simple and classic - pink, white, lights, and roses but with a fun twist - the giggle table! One of the things that Renee Landry Style is know for is their giggle tables for the children attending the wedding, complete with special decor, games, toys, and other fun things! A must-have if you have lots of kids attending your reception! My other favorite thing of this event was the way Renee draped the fabric and lights from the center of the veranda - it really highlighted how awesome our cathedral ceiling is!

Happy Planning!

John Harper, DJ, brings those great colored lights with him - and I promise it makes the dance party even better :)

The Busiest Weekend of the Fall

This past weekend was our annual Homeowner's Weekend at The Currituck Club, which means lots of people, lots of meetings, and lots of events! Oh, and add a wedding in there too... Here are a few pictures of the weekend's main events - the Friday Welcome Reception and Saturday Celebration Dinner. I'll do another post soon to feature the Sunday wedding!

Happy Planning!

October Already?

Can you believe that we are already a week into October? It's going to be such a crazy busy month here, and we definitely started it off with a bang last weekend! The wine bottles and corks were such a great idea for decor - they added just the right amount of fall coloring. And this one comes with a cute story - the bride and groom actually met in Corolla when they both interned in the Corolla Light community :)

Happy Planning!

Country Chic

Another rainy Saturday at The Currituck Club last weekend, but another beautiful wedding! The southern girl in me fell in love with this wedding's decor - blue mason jars, burlap, and bright fuchsia accents were perfect! It was the little details that made this one so special - the clothespin-hung place cards, card basket with banner, and the simple Italian lights strung above the dance floor. Definitely a wedding for the inspiration board :)

Happy Planning!
