Jersey Shore BBQ Wedding: A Weekend Celebration with Friends & Family

Share

Michaela and Michael's beach wedding collage, September 20, 2008

Todays Wedding is celebrating Michaela & Michael’s weekend long bbq on the Jersey Shore. They rented not one, but 8 other houses in the area to put up family and friends. This way everybody was in walking distance and could also make a long weekend out of it (many family members and a few friends. Since it was off season, it was actually cheaper to rent the houses than rent a reception space for four hours!

We love that it was all about friends and family and that we hold close. Everyone seemed to pitch in to make this weekend long event as fun as possible. Including a night before cocktail party. Their wedding was early in the day so that everyone could also enjoy a day at the beach. Our concessions caterer kept the grill going all day and night and instead of wedding cake, they had funnel cake!
