Allowing the ocean to be their inspiration, Lauren and Tyler chose a color palette that mirrored its brilliant hues, from light shades of sea foam to rich hues of teal. Renee Landry Events added pops of pink to Lauren's bouquet and created white calla lily bouquets for the bridesmaids that matched the beach-styled reception tablescapes. Basnight Photography captured all of the details of this modern destination wedding at Koru Village & Spa, featured in the 2016 Outer Banks Bride Magazine. We are over-the-moon to share this gallery of ready-to-pick inspiration for your Outer Banks wedding!

From the Couple: 

How He Asked: "Tyler knew he wanted to propose somewhere special to he and Lauren, and since they've been going to the Outer Banks with their families for years, he knew that was the perfect place. On the first night of their vacation in Avon, they went for walk walk on the beach and when they reached the Avon Pier, Tyler popped the question!" 

Why They Chose the Outer Banks: "We've been coming to the Outer Banks with our families for vacation for years, and since Tyler proposed there, there was no question that we wanted to get married in Avon too!" 

Wedding Inspiration: "Our decor was all beach themed! The color palette included ocean tones, and the wedding style was beach chic. We wanted our wedding to reflect the surrounding of the venue." 

Favorite Wedding Memory: "Our first dance. It was one off the only times during the evening when we were able to have a conversation, just the two of us, without people running up to congratulate us! As strange as it was to be the only two people dancing in a room full of people, for those few minutes, it felt like it was just us."

Enchanted by the Outer Banks' for its allure of island simplicity, Kristin and Justin, along with To Have and To Hold OBX, designed a First Colony Inn around a sea-glass motif unlike any other. Bells & Whistles brought this vision to life with a natural, coastal oasis of oyster shells, driftwood, succulents and soft blooms. With the one and only Genevieve Stewart Photography and Swell Productions capturing every romantic moment, this is a destination fairy-tale we can't stop swooning over!

From the Couple...

How They Met: "We met in the Summer of 2009 at a brewery in Historic Downtown Wilmington. Justin was the bartender and I was a part of their promotional team. Although I don't remember there being much interaction between us at work, we did get to spend sometime together when we were out with mutual friends. Neither of us were eager for anything serious as we both recently ended long-term relationships, but after a Summer of fun with friends and getting to know each other, we decided it was ridiculous to keep putting off the inevitable. We are so similar, yet so different in many ways. We've made each other laugh every day for six years, and luckily we have enough material to keep those laughs going for a lifetime!" 

Why They Chose the Outer Banks: "Justin and his mother moved to Kill Devil Hills in 1996 where she married her husband who was a native to the Outer Banks. He has so many memories on the Outer Banks and he couldn't wait to bring me back to his hometown. The first time he brought me home to meet his parents, I remember being in awe of the adorable Nags Head beach front homes and the simplicity of the island. Living in Wilmington, a quaint beach town of its own, we had everything we needed here to plan a wedding, but we knew that wasn't what we wanted. We love the way the Outer Banks makes us feel, and wanted our wedding guests to feel that too. It is a magical place that now holds our hearts." 

Wedding Inspiration: "Sea glass. We didn't initially have a color palate of theme in mind when planning our wedding, but when we started picking our floral and decorations we decided on blues, greens, grays and browns. When we put them all together we soon realized that they resembled a handful of sea glass and our wedding grew from there. We didn't want bright colors and sea horses, we wanted soft colors and oyster shells. Using those ideas, we designed a relaxed, coastal wedding that was everything we envisioned and more!"

Favorite Wedding Memory: "Our venue met all of our wedding weekend needs. The First Colony Inn was large enough for our wedding party and immediate family members to spend the weekend with us. We hosted a barbecue welcome reception Friday night and were able to have breakfast with our family and friends all weekend. It was so special to have everyone close to us during our big day."

From the Couple...

How The Met: "We met while working together at a sailing center in Corolla in the summer of 2011. John had moved from South Carolina and took a job as the sailing center's Site Manager and Taylor just graduated college in Virginia and took a Summer job there renting out water-sport equipment. We became friends through working together and made our romantic relationship official that September - we also decided to make  our move to the Outer Banks a permanent one!" 

Why They Chose the Outer Banks: "We met here and live here!" 

Wedding Inspiration: "We wanted our wedding to be everything that is simple, natural beauty - something we feel encompasses our relationship as a whole. The most important thing to us was to be able to get married in a place that had significant meaning to both of us, and that we could always come back to visit and even bring our keys one day. Our wedding quickly turned into an earthy, very natural, garden glam style."

Favorite Wedding Memory: "Our top favorite memory is our first look! Once we saw each other for the first time, every nerve we had went away and it was just the most emotional, flawless moment for us that we will never forget."

What is our number one reason for hiring a videographer? Being able to relive your wedding day over and over, of course! Digital Wunderland consistently creates wedding videos that tug at our heart strings. We are very honored to have their talented team as a member of the Outer Banks Wedding Association, and witness the beautiful, creative work they produce. Check out their breathtaking video of Allison and Jason's wedding day below.

Have you ever been driving down the road, and a song comes on that brings you back to a moment in time? In an instant, you are transported back, and suddenly you remember everything about that time but mostly, you remember the emotions of that moment, no matter how much time has passed.

While images capture and preserve a moment, videos capture the action and the emotion in real time. Those tears you shed when he professed his love, promising to cherish you for the rest of his life, are not just captured in a single still. Instead, you can watch them fall, years in the future experiencing the same raw emotion and excitement year after year always returning to that sacred moment in time.

Joe Cheshire - owner and executive director at Digital Wunderland an award winning production company based here on the Outer Banks - has been filming weddings for nearly a decade and prides himself on meeting the needs of each individual couple.

Each wedding video I create is unique. A bride will not get a cookie cutter video from me because I carefully tailor each video to meet the couple s personal vision. I pride myself on capturing all their special moments throughout the day, and producing a one-of-a-kind video they can treasure the rest of their lives.

Often times, when a bride evaluates her budget only to realize she needs to cut back she opts to forgo the videographer, instead selecting just a photographer. While budgets are an important part of wedding planning, and should be followed as tightly as possible, it s important to acknowledge the long term value of your wedding splurges. The ability to preserve a monumental event in one s life can not be undervalued, and a wedding video affords the happy couple the luxury of playing back their big day, and experiencing all the special moments and emotion experienced.

Digital Wunderland understands that selecting both a videographer and a photographer can push the limits of a bride s budget, so it s important to not only meet but exceed expectations.

I have traveled the world both studying from and creating films with the world s best independent film makers. I have learned to document moments without being in the way or making others feel uncomfortable.

In the moment, it is easy for a bride to assume she will always remember her wedding, and all its details, just as clearly as the day it happened. Unfortunately, the day flies by leaving many intimate moments overlooked and details forgotten and what isn t captured, time tends to erase as the years pass. However, by capturing these intimate moments in video, a couple can enjoy their wedding day time and time again a treasure their kids and grandkids can also enjoy.
