Let's Go Down to the Sea You and Me - Highly Recommend
Don is a brilliant wordsmith of the romantic sea, and Kat's photography is breathtaking, (You WILL love your photos, just buy them all). They are lovely, creative, professional people who definitely enhanced our wedding, and added to the magic of the day.
We are so grateful to them. They also offer the opportunity to add some very uniquely beautiful and spiritual elements to your ceremony. There is one in particular that we chose that we already cherish. We can't tell you what it is - it's a trade secret of theirs (shhh!). In tribute to their style of artistry, let me offer this, with an homage to Dr. Seuss, clearly a favorite of theirs (and ours).
Let's Go Down to the Sea You and Me
Let's get married us two, big decision you know!
We know why, but who what how, and where do we go?
Let's go down to the sea you and me,
With family and loved ones, and friends more than three.
We'll exchange vows, tie the knot, and get hitched in the sand
And let the wind and the waves be our own wedding band.
Invite the Beach's, Don and Kat,
One does this, while the other does that.
We'll let their words please us and ease us,
As the ocean winds breeze us,
And we'll be married in no time flat!
We said we would and we do and we did,
But there's really so much more
We got what we wanted, a Wedding with a Heart,
Right down there on the shore!
With much Gratitude and Respect,
Dan & Laura
I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. I am very pleased
