marlie and rid

This adventurous couple was a blast to work with!! The groom proposed while kayaking to China Man’s hat so they thought it was fitting to tie the knot on Secret Island overlooking the monumental island! One of their great passions (aside from each other OBV ; ) is traveling the world together. It made for a very natural theme when it came to the wedding design. There were so many fun ways they tied it all together. To begin with, they chose cocktails to represent where they come from. Before dinner, each guest found their seat by locating their name on a world map. Each table was named after places they’d travel to together. To top it off, each guest received an adorable airplane bottle opener as a favor!

The day started off strong with welcome drinks and a catamaran boat ride to the ceremony on Secret Island. For the cocktail hour, guest enjoyed a fresh local oyster bar, spread of charcuterie, and cocktails with island flare! Later the guests were invited to the colorful reception with teal linens, vibrant tropical florals and dreamy string lights. During the reception, the bride surprised the groom with a slide show of heartfelt words from international friends and family who were not able to travel to the US due to Covid restrictions at the time. After a delicious dinner, the guests danced the night away under the full moon!
