The weather was flawless. We’re talking clear skies, warm sunshine, and a soft ocean breeze. Abbie got ready with her girls, sister, and mom, while Michael prepped with his brothers, dad, and friends. Their first look was filled with joy, their smiles impossibly big as they saw each other.
Before the ceremony, they shared a unique dual family reveal. Abbie unveiled her look to Michael’s family, while Michael revealed his dapper look to Abbie’s family. Everyone joined together in one giant, love-filled hug.
The ceremony took place on the beach at sunset, overlooking the ocean. Michael held it together until his vows, where tears finally fell. He hugged Abbie multiple times throughout as his love overflowed. Abbie’s father, Steve, officiated, making the moment even more personal. As they were pronounced husband and wife, Michael was literally jumping for joy, setting the tone for the celebration ahead.
Guests walked along the beach to cocktail hour, dressed in vibrant colors per Michael and Abbie’s request. The reception was al fresco, beneath glowing lights, with a colorful dance floor illuminating the night. Their first dance featured cold sparklers shooting into the sky, making for a breathtaking moment.
Then, the dance party exploded. Every guest hit the floor, showing off epic moves and keeping the energy through the hypothetical roof. But the grand finale? A spontaneous dip in the ocean. Friends, family, and yes, even us, jumped into the waves, celebrating in the most unforgettable way.
Michael & Abbie’s wedding was more than a wedding. It was a once-in-a-lifetime celebration. We wouldn’t change a single thing
