Ceremony and Reception
The majority of Outer Banks brides choose to do a simple beach wedding ceremony followed by a tented reception at their vacation home. This option provides flexibility and convenience! However, the Outer Banks offers many great venues to hold a Wedding Ceremony and Reception.

Somewhere between all of these extreme elements of weather are many very beautiful days quite suitable for a beach wedding anywhere on the Outer Banks.
