Kiawah Wedding at The Ocean Course | Kathleen + Sean

From the sunny shores of San Diego to North Carolina (with a lot of long-distance love along the way), Kathleen and Sean’s story is just like their wedding day—full of sun, the sea, joy in each other, laughter, family, and their cat, Bubbles. The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island set the scene for their outdoor ceremony overlooking the Atlantic and their celebration under a magnificent sailcloth tent. In between, these two took off for a barefoot moment in the dunes that was both the perfect photo op and a beautiful nod to the city in which their story began.

That gorgeous gown Kathleen’s wearing? It’s a custom silk crepe Lea-Ann Belter gown with a bow created by Anne Barge from Bellissima Bridal!
