Bald Head Island Club Wedding - Shane & Melissa

Well, it's raining on Bald Head today, (and even though we need the rain - badly) I still find myself longing for the gorgeous sunny days we typically have here on the island. So how about a beautiful spring wedding for today's blog post, to help bring a little sunshine to this unusually wet day?


A couple months ago the Bald Head Island Club hosted a lovely Sunday afternoon wedding for Shane & Melissa. It was a gorgeous May 15th wedding, without the wind, without the rain, but with a whole lot of love and support from the couple's friends and family.

Shane & Melissa were married under our gorgeous Ocean Terrace Tent and then spent some time driving around the island with their photographer, Chris Van Atta, capturing some of the island's pristine environment and unique landmarks that have become so much a part of the island experience.

Their guests enjoyed a wonderful spread of food out on our back terraces including a chilled seafood station ...

a mashed potato martini bar... 
a beef tenderloin station...

and much, much more.

 I love events held out on the Grille Terrace - which overlooks the golf course and the croquet courts. It has such a peaceful setting -  fans blowing above, palm trees swaying in the distance and the sun casting it's lovely glow on to the greenery beyond.

And that sun certainly does a good job of keeping our entertainment warm :)
PS... DJ J. Tatum of Active Entertainment is a total rockstar. Love him!

The gorgeous flowers were provided by Wendy Wright of A Beautiful Event, and it certainly was - a beautiful event.

The bride and groom shipped the most decadent, pre-sliced chocolatey-chocolate cakes to the Bald Head Island Club from their favorite bakery and for the life of me, I can not remember the name of the bakery. I want to say Big Daddy's Bakery??? Anyway, I didn't get to try the cakes but they looked and smelled
DE-LICIOUS!
Oh, and the club's pastry chef created an assortment of delicious treats to go along with the cakes including mini cheesecakes, mini key lime tarts, and an assortment of liquor filled truffles. YUM.
Congrats to the beautiful couple. They were so laid back and just enjoyed their special day here on the island. It was a pleasure working with you both. 
And thanks again, for bringing a little sunshine to my day :)
