The venue, Blockade Runner Beach Resort, is located on Wrightsville Beach. The welcome party will be held outside on grass so please make sure to wear comfortable shoes. We will have a private area on the lawn overlooking the ocean to kick off the festivities. Depending on the weather it could be a little brisk so a light jacket or sweater could come in handy. Suggested attire for men would be khakis/slacks and a collared shirt or button down, jacket optional. Suggested attire for women would be cocktail attire: jumpsuit, cocktail dress, skirt/boots/blouse combo. As noted above, the venue is outside so if wearing a dress a light sweater is recommended.
The ceremony and reception is formal attire (not black tie event). We want everyone to come looking their best and ready to celebrate and hit the dance floor! Men: Suit and Tie Women: Formal Dress. Feel free to have fun with your dresses, we are at the beach! Most women will be in long dresses, but tea length, high/lows, asymmetrical hemlines, and fancy cocktail dresses are welcome.
The Wedding Ceremony will be held at St. Therese Catholic Church at 2PM. Address for the Church is: 209 Lumina Ave. S Wrightsville Beach, NC 28480. For those staying at the Blockade Runner it is a short walk to the Church. For those staying at the Springhill Suites there is parking at the Church and it is a quick Uber away. Shuttle Busses will be provided to transport guests to Cape Fear Country Club for the reception. The address is: 1518 Country Club Rd. Wilmington, NC 28403.
