This Romantic Seaside Soirée Took Place On a Ship!

May 15

This romantic seaside soirée took place on a ship (yes, you read that right, on a ship!) overlooking the water in Galveston, Texas – what a dream! Diane Roark and Michael Drab’s big day was focused on family, and with the ship not being quite large enough to seat their entire guest list, they reserved it for just family as they tied the knot, and we’re loving this intimate touch. Full of maroon, blush and mauve touches, Josh and Dana Fernandez captured all the details of this seaside soirée perfectly! With her hair and makeup done by the team at Etoilly Artistry, Diane looked like a total show-stopper in her beaded V-neck gown. We truly can’t stop staring at all the details of the Drab’s big day, and we are sure you’ll feel the same way. If you’re a bride who’s wanting a seaside celebration without leaving the comfort of Texas, then this one is a must-see for all the dreamy inspiration! Cheers to Mr. and Mrs. Drab!

From the bride on her favorite memory: “We had a private last dance to ‘Into the Mystic’ by Van Morrison. We both just took the whole day in and embraced each other tight, enjoying the last moments of the best day of our lives. We consider it ‘our song’ more than our first dance song now because of how much we loved that moment.”

For more beachy inspo, this shoot is your go-to!
