Ashely & Patrick’s romance began in college, when they met at a roof deck party above their freshman dorm. A crush blossomed into love and the two have been inseparable ever since. If ever two people were a perfect match, these two are it.

They are both incredibly caring, funny, down-to-earth people who embrace life’s adventures and love with hearts wide open. Their July 5 wedding at the gorgeous Ocean Edge Resort was the perfect reflection of who they are.

Complete with an outdoor ceremony on the resort front lawn, a deliciously-popular candy bar featuring tons of sugary sweets, and a sparklers send off, their wedding was at the same time elegant and completely fun! Here are a few of our favorite images from their special day:

Lovely Ashley…

Clementine Floral put together Ashley’s gorgeous bouquet, featuring green hydrangeas and lisianthus mixed with white Calla lilies, peonies and a couple of orchids to tie it all together. Simple and stunning!

Pretty in pink & green….Ashley in her fabulous gown from L’elite, and her bridesmaids in their adorable Juliet silk chiffon dresses from J Crew Juliet silk chiffon dresses know how to work it!!

A loving exchange with Nana…What a beautiful moment! Wish I had a picture like this with my Grandma!

Tucked in a side room in the mansion was this adorable divan and over-sized mirror. It made for such a fun backdrop for a portrait of Ashley before the ceremony. Love it!!

Getting walked to the aisle by her Dad, Ashley is all smiles…

After being pronounced hubby & wife, Ashley & Patrick seal it with a kiss.

“We did it!!!” Can’t you just feel the joy?

Having fun with the family portraits…I especially love Ashley’s mom’s full on laugh! Go Susan!!

Ashley got these great Chinese umbrellas that were great for some fun photos! Thankfully, the rain held off and we didn’t need them for actual protection! I love this candid shot!

The guys…

Private time…

A little smoke break during the reception…Soprano style….hard core boys!! Grrrrrr…

Ashley gets down…

A perfect day ends with a perfect night and another great photo opportunity as Ashley & Patrick leave their party, ushered out with a sparkler serenade.

And here are just a few details from their fabulous day…
