A Kiawah Island Ocean Course Tented Wedding for the Color Lovers

Kiawah Ocean Course Sail Cloth Tented Wedding Inspired by Color

A dreamy sail cloth tented wedding on Kiawah Island at the Ocean Course, inspired by watercolor, confetti cake and the bride’s love for golf (she played in college). Sounds pretty amazing, right? Well, get ready for an adventure as we explore how to create a wedding that’s bursting with personality and style, featuring Katie & Stuart!

Katie’s Color Palette Journey: From Watercolor Fuzzy Slippers to Custom Invitations

So, our color-loving bride Katie was all about fun and quirky stuff that makes her wedding stand out (which we recommend for everyone!). She found some fuzzy watercolor slippers one day that she thought were super cute, so she decided to gift them to her bridesmaids. And guess what? Those slippers became the inspiration for the whole color scheme of the wedding! Who would’ve thought fuzzy slippers could be such trendsetters?

Katie and her friends got ready for the day at a luxurious private residence on Kiawah, a stone’s throw from the Ocean Course. It was like a pre-wedding party in itself – the flower girl was practicing her dance floor moves for everyone! Laughter, excitement, and a little bit of chaos filled the air as the bride and her bridesmaids got glammed up for the big day.

But let’s talk about those jaw-dropping wedding invites. Katie knew she needed something extra special, so she called in the pros at Rose Gold Studio. They whipped up a custom invitation suite that was basically magic on paper! Each piece was a work of art, showing off Katie’s chosen colors and setting the mood for the whole wedding.

Stylish Blues and Sparkling Glitter: The Fashionable Wedding Party

Now let’s get into the fashion, my personal favorite detail of any wedding! When it comes to the wedding party, Stuart and the entire wedding party wore shades of blue from navy suits to sky blue dresses while But Katie stole the show in a glittery gown that shined like the sun on the ocean as she strutted down the aisle, leaving everyone breathless. After the ceremony, she swapped those killer heels for some comfy glittery Kate Spade sneakers, proving you can be stylish and have fun at the same time.

The Ocean Front Wedding Ceremony

Their wedding ceremony happened on the lush green golf course that Katie adores with the Atlantic ocean behind them.

I have to talk about something that made this ceremony truly unforgettable and hilarious though. As Katie and Stuart exchanged vows, Stuart’s ring was being just a bit of a pain in the ass, refusing to slide onto his finger, so Katie, in her playful and mischievous spirit, took matters into her own hands—or rather, her own tongue! She gave Stuart’s finger a quick lick (yes, you heard that right!) to get the ring to glide on smoothly. Everyone laughed but I just love how it showed their willingness to go the extra mile for each other.

Instead of tossing petals, their guests showered them with bubbles as they walked down the aisle, creating a magical, rainbow-like scene! It was whimsical and added an extra sprinkle of magic to the whole day. As Katie and Stuart strolled through those iridescent bubbles, they couldn’t help but smile!

The Beauty of Kiawah Island: Ocean Course Sail Cloth Tented Wedding

Kiawah Island is known for its stunning beaches, lush scenery, and peaceful vibes. It’s like a paradise getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life. With such natural beauty, Kiawah Island is the ultimate setting for a romantic and unforgettable wedding day!

Imagine a huge sailcloth tent perched right next to the vast Atlantic Ocean – the view alone would make your jaw drop!

As the guests settled in, they found these cute pink plates, adding a touch of class and whimsy to the table setup. Oh, and those circular watercolor menus were pure art and gave a sneak peek into the mouthwatering food to come. It was a feast for both the eyes and the taste buds.

They two dessert options – a funfetti cake covered in playful sprinkles as the star of the show on a colorful floral table and they also had a cotton candy cart, and those flower girls went wild for it!
