The Wedding Day

Robert & Carlie
⚓ At Sea · near Mljet ⚓
♡ The Day We’ve Dreamed Of

Today’s the day. 🤍 We’ll begin the morning with a scenic sail along Dubrovnik — gliding past those storybook walls and coastline for one last, full-hearted look at the Pearl of the Adriatic from the water.

Then we’ll make our way to Mljet, where — surrounded by the open Adriatic and every person we love — we’ll be married at sea. The rest of the day is simply for celebrating.

Cocktails Continue & Photo Time!

Please hang out on the top deck — everyone is in photos! We’ll do group photos with a whole lineup, but don’t worry: we’ll knock out all the guests who aren’t in the wedding party first, so you can go drink & frolic ASAP. 🥂 Passed hors d’oeuvres will be circulating while golden hour does its thing.
