Ashley & Ian's Hotel LBI Wedding, NJ

All photos by Oceans to Mountains Photography On Sunday, November 21st, Ashley and Ian tied the knot at the beautiful Hotel LBI in Long Beach Island, NJ.

5 Things I would change about my Wedding

Photo by Art of Love My husband and I are taking a mini getaway for our anniversary this month. It's been 9 years since our wedding and 6 years since I started Shore to Please Weddings. Over the years I've seen so many weddings and each one of them were unique in their own way. It is hard to not look back on my own wedding and think about what I would have done differently. Overall, the changes I would make are minimal because I absolutely loved my wedding day and my wedding

Their wedding was originally scheduled for June 2020 but the couple chose to reschedule to May 15, 2021. We were so impressed with how t

Does a first look make sense for you?

Photo by Havana Photography We often get asked what a first look is and if it makes sense to do one. A first look is where the couple chooses to see each other prior to the ceremony. While this breaks tradition, we typically see if done more often than not now. Today we dive into the details of a first look to help you decide if it is something you should consider or not. Every couple is different, so it is a very personal decision that you should make with your partner. Are
