This intimate, handmade Ocracoke Island wedding wins the internet today

This Ocracoke Island wedding takes full advantage of the oasis-like environment of the island off the coast of North Carolina. They rented a beautiful house on the sound, and wed in the backyard among their family, friends, and lots of driftwood. Erin’s wedding dress was a work of art in itself, sewed and dyed by hand. We are SERIOUSLY entraced by this Ocracoke Island wedding.

Sea-inspired wedding meets masquerade

Rubber ducks and blue hair: we love this sea-inspired wedding meets masquerade

Rachel and Rial love whimsy and some of their memories are of enjoying the ocean together, so naturally, their wedding had a sea-inspired wedding meets masquerade. Their wedding showcased the most vibrant colors for hair, bouquets (made by Rachel), wedding party attire, elaborate masks, sea glass, and even rubber duckies for party favors because they are one of Rial’s favorite things. Oh, and the rubber ducky cake toppers were hand painted to match their hair and attire of the couple. You’ll love the groom’s vows on bended knee!
