On October 27, 2023, Jess and Ben threw the most epic wedding, rain and all. The day kicked off with the couple preparing at separate houses. A surprise rainstorm forced a last-minute switch to the ceremony location, the Pelican Shores main deck which overlooks the crystal clear waters of Sussex Inlet.
The ceremony, set against the backdrop of raindrops on the water, became this cosy, romantic scene that felt straight out of a movie. Once married the newlyweds grabbed their umbrellas and hopped on a boat with the bridal party for some fun pics that captured their adventurous spirits.
The reception was lots of fun – laughter, toasts, and all-around good times. And just when you thought it couldn't get wilder, the boys decided to wrap it up with a spontaneous nude jump off the wharf.
Jess and Ben's wedding wasn't your average love fest; it was a masterclass in rolling with the punches and turning every moment into something unforgettable. As they sailed into married life, surrounded by laughs and love, it was clear – these two are on a journey that's as wild and wonderful as their wedding day.
Congratulations guys!
