You all know that I LOVE a good destination wedding and it’s always a bonus when the beach is involved (Hello Sea Isle City, New Jersey!!). Adding Derek and Paige to the mix of sunset and sand was a recipe for perfection. Not to mention one of the highlights being, capturing the wedding party dance the night away in Sea Isle City baseball caps. Soooo much fun! I hope you enjoy catching a glimpse in to this bride and groom’s day as much as I did.
Sea Isle City
Planning a wedding can be stressful and exhausting but then your long awaited day comes and everything just makes sense. All that time before hand, working on pulling of the perfect celebration that matches both your love and commitment to each other, as well as your style, can be a daunting task. Paige and Derek found it ALL when they found The Yacht Club in Sea Isle City, New Jersey. It was a breathtaking venue that had everything necessary to celebrate their love while embracing their personalities. Just wait until you see Derek and his groomsmen with their Sea Isle baseball caps.

What They Want To Remember Most
When I talked to Paige and Derek about their day, it was clear they love to have FUN and cherish their time together doing just that. Derek said that the thing he wants to remember most about the day is, “Doing an entrance dance with Paige.” See, I told you they like to have fun. How cute are they?! When I asked Paige the same, she had a harder time narrowing it down with so many moments being a favorite from the day but she says, “Finally being able to take a deep breath and realize that I said ‘I do’ to my best friend and love of my life in front of the most important people in my life.” Both agreed that the thing they didn’t ever want to forget form their wedding day is the happiness and love that was felt for and from family and friends.
The Honeymoon
In my opinion, you can never go wrong with vacationing in the carribean, or in Paige and Derek’s case, honeymooning. Sandals Resort in Ocho Rios, Jamaica was just the place to unwind from all the distractions and PERFECT for the two of them to focus on enjoying one on one time. Sounds like a dream!
The Gifts
A surprise candlelight dinner on the honeymoon was not only a unique gift to have received but also very well thought out. The newlywed pair loved all of their gifts, of course, and were grateful for everyone’s generosity but this one definitely stuck out. They definitely enjoyed this gift.
