Friday’s Featured Wedding: Caroline Elizabeth Clark & Billy Shaine Richey

Caroline Elizabeth Clark and Billy Shaine Richey wed in a beautiful spring wedding ceremony on March 19, 2016, at Sandals Grande St. Lucian in Gros Islet, St. Lucia and with their reception upon their return at their family’s property.  Enjoy all the beautiful photographs from Blake McCollum and details of their wedding.

Caroline, what made your wedding special and what was your inspiration?

We got the best of both worlds with a destination, small beach wedding and a large celebration with family and friends. Our hashtag was “For Richer or Poorer”. Since we eloped, we enjoyed using “Come Away with Me” theme.

Our beach wedding was simple & tropical, (ceremony planned through Sandals). For our large outdoor reception at Bowtie Campy once we returned home, we had a big white tent with floral decorations suspended from the tent ceiling along with our wedding cake. We chose a coconut wedding cake, rustic/chic decoration, barrel table tops, wooden dance floor and farm tables.
