Ashlyn & Kevin
Figure 8 Island Yacht Club
Wilmington, North Carolina
Ashlyn and Kevin’s New Year’s Eve wedding was absolutely unforgettable! This sweet couple chose (our favorite NC venue!) Figure 8 Island Yacht Club as the backdrop for their celebration. Let’s first start with their decision to build their reception dance floor … OVER … the pool! You heard us right, they actually tented the club pool and built a clear floor for all the dancing! Talk about a first dance painting … and to top it all off … confetti! We’ve been so excited to capture a confetti moment in a live painting! Jennifer, Figure 8’s Event Coordinator, pulled off an extraordinary evening! We’ve been celebrating weddings and events here at F8IYC for years and years … and each one so unique and so special! We’re thrilled to share Ashlyn + Kevin’s finished live painting.
