Cape Cod - Cake

I stumbled onto this cake by The Casual Gourmet completely by accident and even though I'm not a white cake kind of bride, I'm in love with this cake. I love how there is just a little 'sand', and the gate just really says Cape Cod to me. I definitely like the idea of having the adirondack chairs instead of traditional cake toppers.

Cape Cod - Bridal

This dress from The Dessy Group Destination Bridal Style 1021 would require some serious bootcamp training but I really like it. From far away the lace almost looks like sequence. I wanted to find something simple but not plain. No one wants to look boring at their wedding!

Cape Cod - Ceremony

So I'd like to have my ceremony on the beach which apparently requires a town permit (small fee) but is only a short walk from the Sea View. The only host one wedding a day so I don't have to worry about timing but I do want my ceremony to be later in the afternoon so that it's not too hot for myself and my guests.

Cape Cod -Welcome Bags

The Pink Polka Dot will customize welcome gifts with local products, maps /brochures and even create maps specific to your wedding events. They can deliver to the hotel before your guests arrive from out of town (which will save on stress.) They will also coordinate with your colors or theme. Great idea for guests or even just members of the wedding party!

Cape Cod -Invitations

Unfortunately it's a bit hard to see the invites on here but I like how the colors are muted; it just seems to add to the peaceful mood I'm looking for in this wedding.

Cape Cod -Inspirations

The thing that really inspired me to have a wedding on the Cape in July is because growing up we would go to Martha's Vineyard every summer right around this time. When I think of the Cape, I think of the beach and so I wanted to have a beach ceremony and hopefully outdoor reception.

I want to not only show the beauty of the beach but also the breeze that comes off the ocean.
