Well it’s the dead of winter here in New England, and this gorgeous Turks & Caicos wedding is making me dream of summer’s warmth. Set amidst the gorgeous aqua blues of the Caribbean, this wedding had only twenty guests, making it a lovely intimate, relaxed, and romantic affair. Check out the photos from Natalie Watson Photography for yourself.
From the bride…Our friends and family live all over the U.S. and Canada, so it was going to be a destination wedding for our guests no matter where we got married. With that in mind, we thought there couldn’t be a better place to bring them than Turks & Caicos. We got married on a Thursday in order to “get the wedding out of the way,” leaving us the rest of the weekend to have some stress-free fun with our family and friends.
The main thing we wanted was for our wedding to feel intimate. Our goal was to have the reception feel more like a casual dinner party on the beach rather than an event at a big resort. To do that, we kept things relatively low key. We used only one long table with simple bud vases of white hydrangeas. Dinner was served family-style. Our favors were bags of s’mores, which everyone roasted at the end of the night before many of them ran into the ocean – some in their wedding attire!
