Ceremony
5:00 pm
Atlantic Beach, NC 28512
Cocktail Attire
Driving to the fort: You will pass the picnic area on your right, about 1 mile before getting to the turn for the fort's parking area. The venue is a historic ocean-side fort. We will have to walk to the back bridge for the ceremony. If it is raining, bring an umbrella, and we will go into the fort itself for the ceremony. Consider wearing shoes that you can wear while walking in the grass. Pictures will follow the ceremony and may take place in the fort and on the beach. There are steep stairs. We consider everyone in attendance to be family, so please stick around after the ceremony to be part of the photo session. *We would love it if people wore wedding colors (navy, gray, or pink). Not required but appreciated.*
