Today’s absolutely gorgeous wedding has us dreaming of warmth and the gorgeous beach venue at Herrington on the Bay! When Serena of Love by Serena submitted this wedding to us, she included a few words by the bride that made us smile:

“When we met, Rick was stationed in Puerto Rico and I was living in Philadelphia. Needless to say, we fell in love on the beautiful blue waters and gorgeous beaches of Isla Verde throughout the first year of dating. Because of this and our absolute love for the water and beach, we knew we needed to get married at a waterfront location. The weather was great, and we were surrounded by all the wonderful people we love so dearly.”

More from the Bride: “My inspiration for our wedding began with bridal magazines bought for me on my engagement day from my Maid of Honor and bridesmaid. I found this gorgeous picture of a navy and fuchsia wedding, and I just kept going back to it. All of my bridesmaid have such different personalities and interests so it seemed to be a no brainer to have a unique style of dress to suit each of them.

I found my dress during a trip to Uniontown, PA near my hometown at a friend of a friend’s prom shoppe. I had gone to numerous places and, although it was originally 8 sizes too big, I knew it had everything I wanted for my wedding dress. Rick always made me melt when he wore his uniform so that too was a non-negotiable for me and something Rick wanted as well. It was such an honor to have all of his Coast Guard buddies as groomsmen and ushers, and I must say it made for some great eye candy.”
