in North Carolina-Outer Banks
I'm sorry, I know I'm a crazy poster today. (This is what happens when there's a day off.) Anyhoodle, I remember there was this exact post last summer and it was extremely helpful in the planning process. OBX2011, if you happen to talk to the others, if you could ask them to swing over here to do this...

So, let's get into it. I hope this is as helpful for you as it was for us...

Anything to note on any of the above?  Anyone jump out with a great deal or service, etc?

    I noticed you had your hair/makeup done at Hot Heads. 

    Did you bring your own makeup or did they provide it for you?

    I have emailed them, but haven't heard back yet so I was just curious.

    Ceremony Locale: On the beach at the Sea Foam Motel in Nag's Head. I love the old retro places at the outer banks rather then the big modern fancy ones. They remind me of my childhood!
    Reception Locale: The beach at the Sea Foam. It's going to be picnic style weather permitting!
    Officiant: Rev. Shirley Anne
    Florist: Holiday House House weddings
    Coordinator/Planner: Platinum Party Planning
    Gena is just TERRIFIC! I was able to hire a few of my vendors, but then overtime at work kicked in with it's sixty-plus hours, six day workweeks. Gena took over the reins and has kept me being just a tired bride rather then a tired nervous wreck bride.
    Music: Steel drummers that Gena got for us. I love Caribbean music!
    Caterer: Cafe Lachine
    Photographer: Ginger Snaps Photnography
    Motels: Sea Foam Motel, Rodeway Inn
    Hair/Nails/Makeup: Hairoics
    Other Stuff: My parents are elderly and one is in too poor health to attend, but Mr and Mrs. Stetson of Holiday House Weddings helped by making lovely seashell pins for me to bring home to them after the wedding which was terrific.
    Instead of throwing birdseed, rice, or the like, my guests will be tossing beach balls which they get to keep as wedding favors. Kids like them too.
    Beachballs.com is a great place to get bals in your wedding colors and they are reasonably priced. They are good for welcome bags for parties with kids too!
