THERE IS A CERTAIN BEAUTY to beach weddings, whether due to the raw sound of crystal clear waves hitting the rocks, or the warm and inviting smell of the sand and feel of the soft breeze on the skin. When the bride’s dress is a sea of cascading ruffles of chiffon and organza, intricately embellished with thousands of glittering jewels, all that comes to mind upon seeing her beauty against the piercing sea, is the image of a mermaid. Perhaps it is the modern version of what Ariel from the beloved fairytale, The Little Mermaid, would have looked like if she married Prince Eric…a fairytale come to life. —Victoria
