Mark and Carrie’s special day was an enchanting combination of surprises and unbreakable love. While they had envisioned an idyllic outdoor ceremony in the expansive gardens of Sea La Vie Beach House, fate had other plans: a gentle rain blessed their union. But love has no time, and in the warm embrace of this Tuscan-inspired place, their hearts found their eternal home, forever united in a story as unique as their love.
The ceremony...
The Tuscanian-inspired ambiance mixed with a touch of Mediterranean romance.
Before the sudden outpour, the picturesque Sea La Vie Beach House’s open garden awaited, with N & M Creations‘ Tuscan-inspired setup and a promise of an outdoor ceremony under the open sky.
The combination of fresh white gerbera and alstroemeria adorning both sides of the aisle, the sleek geometric structures at the altar, and the elegant Tiffany chairs transformed the open garden into a visual masterpiece of Mark and Carrie’s intimate union.
Despite the rain, Carrie is still beaming with happiness. The unexpected downpour gracefully transitioned their ceremony from the open garden to the cozy embrace of the reception hall.
The reception...
“Chateau chic” carried over into the reception area.
Mark and Carrie seamlessly took their “I dos” and the party inside Sea La Vie’s Hall with all their loved ones and friends. This hall is like the definition of posh in the town.
It’s got this cool, classic vibe with sleek lines and a timeless look that never goes out of style.
Inside, you can soak up the party energy and still feel like you’re hanging out with your crew. It’s like the go-to spot for epic celebrations that are cozy but super fun!
The wedding dress...
Carrie wore a masterpiece by Alma Mae Roa, showcasing elegance and grace. Featuring a Crêpe bodice with bateau neckline, full length sleeves, and a full skirt, this princess-inspired gown is elegant, magnificent, and beautifully polished. It is accentuated with a cute bow belt, giving emphasis on Carrie’s waist.
Forever Daddy's girl...
Carrie’s bouquet was like something out of a magical storybook. It had these dreamy cream white roses and dried white gypsophilia, like little stars sprinkled among the flowers.
But here’s where it gets even cooler: right in the middle of all those gorgeous blooms was a locket. And inside that locket? A photo of Carrie’s dad, with the biggest, warmest smile you can imagine, ensuring he walks her down the aisle.
Putting her dad’s picture in there wasn’t just for show. It was like keeping him close, a secret way of saying, “Hey, Dad, you’re still a huge part of my big day.”
Every step down the aisle was like a little dance with her dad in her heart.

Breaking the conventional...
Mark decided to break away from the traditional white or black suit. Instead, he embraced the trend of neutral suits, with its soft beige hue setting the tone for a wedding that was all about understated elegance.
With delicate blooms and subtle greenery, the boutonniere added a touch of natural charm to his ensemble. It was the little detail that tied his entire look together.
