Wedding Rituals: Tree Planting Ceremony

Wedding Tree Ceremony

Click on the photo above to read about a tree planted over 70 years ago as part of a wedding ceremony!

Earlier this year, we blogged about the unity sand ceremony, a wedding ritual that has grown in popularity in recent years. Now we’d like to introduce our readers to another contemporary wedding ritual, the tree planning ceremony. The tree newlyweds plant together during their ceremony carries with it multiple symbolic meanings, including their love for each other growing as their tree grows. And as their tree grows over the years and becomes stronger, it is able to weather storms and strong winds, as their marriage will also be resilient over time. Both your tree and marriage require proper nurturing and nourishment. We look forward to incorporating this into your Carolina beach wedding!

Wilmington, NC’s Cape Fear Wedding Show is a Success!

Monday, November 15th, 2010

Yesterday the Oceanfront Weddings of N.C. staff participated in the first event at the Wilmington, NC Convention Center, the Cape Fear Wedding Show. The expo was a huge success, drawing a crowd of over 1,000 and had over 300 brides in attendance.  The Cape Fear Wedding Show is truly becoming one of the premiere bridal shows in the state, and more brides outside of Southeastern North Carolina attended this year than any prior show.

Oceanfront Weddings of N.C. teamed with Ocean Isle Beach’s premiere oceanfront hotel The Islander Inn, Brunswick County’s luxurious golf course The Pearl, and Ocean Isle Beach’s The Isles Restaurant, which boasts a new chef, Peter Hutchings of the Culinary Institute of America. Stephanie Moore of Moore Photography in Wilmington, NC also stopped by and took this amazing photograph of our booth!
