When you enter the bridal suite to hear “Under the Sea” playing, with all the ladies' bright hair reminiscent of mermaids, you know you're in for a fabulous party.
Rachel and Rial love whimsy and some of their memories are of enjoying the ocean together, so naturally, their wedding had a sea-inspired wedding meets masquerade. Their wedding showcased the most vibrant colors for hair, bouquets (made by Rachel), wedding party attire, elaborate masks, sea glass, and even rubber duckies for party favors because they are one of Rial's favorite things. Oh, and the rubber ducky cake toppers were hand painted to match their hair and attire of the couple.
One of the best moments included the Princess Bride wedding monologue spoken in its entirely, Rial giving his vows to Rachel on one knee and playfully offering her “the one and only hand he has” for life, and guests tossing rainbow-colored warm fuzzies at the couple on their exit.

That hair, tho
This is so beautiful! I love her hair, and the idea to put a themed spin on the wedding.
Lovely! I wasn’t even there and I’m tearing up a little.
