Unique & Romantic Surprise Beach Weddings

Surprise Wedding

The entire family and bestest of friends were finally all gathered together in a Nags Head Oceanfront house for a week long vacation!  One couple insisted everyone come down to the beach on a particularly lovely, sunshiny day,. So they gathered the kids, the sunscreen, coolers, boogie boards, chairs, umbrellas, towels and books to set up for an afternoon of toes in the sand.   Out of the blue, came a man with a small round table, which he placed in the sand along with a small bouquet of flowers and a beautiful satin ribbon tied around the white table cloth...he said he was there to do a magic trick and for the family to gather around.  Curious, they did.  The man then announced he would require two volunteers and chose the couple out of the crowd.  They stepped up to the table, held hands, looked into each others eyes....and the man performed a surprise wedding ceremony, right there in the sand, in front of God and everyone!  The group erupted with gasps, tears of joy and shouts of happiness as the officiant pronounced the couple husband and wife. 


Flash Mob Song/Dance Beach Party Wedding

Her favorite movie was "My Best Friend's Wedding", especially the scene where the entire wedding party erupts into song, "I'll Say A Little Prayer for You" during the rehearsal dinner.  He knew this and wanted to surprise her, so he contacted some friends, who knew some friends who were involved in theater/dance here on the Outer Banks and arranged for all of them to gather on the beach inconspicuously, in bathing suits and summer picnic attire, in and around where the morning beach ceremony was to take place.  As their small wedding party gathered to witness their union, the officiant asked the groom to read his handwritten vows...he began singing (a little off-key and loudly) "The moment I wake up..."  when one of the volunteers on the beach jumped up and continued..."before I put on my make-up"...and the WHOLE troupe joined in "I say a little prayer for you!"  Singing and dancing around the couple, while the bride clapped her hands, laughed and through tears of joy said, "Oh yes, I surely do!"
