Licensed & Insured, we are THE experts at doing weddings …

Since 2009, we are reliable, experienced, transparent, easy and FUN! We also are NC & SC state-licensed, church authorized, ordained in-person, and insured to do these amazing, award-winning  services for you.

Each year since then, we’ve seen over 2,000 epic sunrises and sunsets with excited couples who are glowing with Love, dressed in their best (or nice n’ comfy clothes), sharing unique moments and promises of unconditional love and happiness with each other. And we get to be a part of that magic, and take fantastic photos for you, too!

Margo is also a published author and a former English professor in the U. S. and Japan, and David plays the flute professionally (click the 2 orange “story” buttons below too). Plus, Beachpeople Weddings is a long-time active member of 4 professional associations (The Knot, Wedding Wire, LEWA, Professional Photographers Assn.).

This is the beachpeople way…living the salt life by the sea. We are THE long-time specialists at amazing ceremonies and photos…imagine a nice, sunny, fresh, outdoor beach wedding. You two are wearing something soft and beach-y with your feet in the sand. See and feel yourself standing on the shore with waves crashing, warm breezes, sunlight, billowing sea grass and seagulls calling. You are surrounded by your loved ones on this magical shore, holding hands. And you’re about to become heart-joined with the love of your life. This amazing moment, your wedding, becomes about only YOU. That is our mission!

We bring these happy energies to every ceremony, every photo shoot …

We are all about respecting your wishes, your privacy, your choices for yourselves and your wedding day. If you are happy, we are too. We WANT you to be over-the-moon pleased, thus our daily lives are happier too,” David says.

Personally and professionally, we warmly honor same-gender, LGBTQ+, multi-racial, multi-faith, bikers, as well as divorced folks, live-togethers, expecting parents, last-minute weddings. All beings are warmly welcome here!

LEGAL INFO:  we are not mail order or online ministers–we are REAL non-denominational pastors, ordained in-person for life, authorized to officiate by an established multi-faith church based in North Carolina called L.E.W.A. with over 250 clergy members under us. We honor all Paths and belief systems including non-religious.

The Beach is a special kind of wilderness…

The beach is a living focal points for our spiritual or inner selves that defies labels. The ocean and shore thwart human controls and require us to respect that they are wild places, always existing in a state of grace between the known and the mysterious. We feel that special “larger than ourselves” thing at the beach, and we see refreshment and renewal every time a wave washes over a footprint or a sand castle. It is a unique place of amazing beauty and humbling power.

And, we are more than just Ministers and Photographers~

David and Margo are romantics, soulmates and Twin Flames and married to each other. Also they are certified life coaches, published authors, an Air Force Crew Chief veteran, a former English professor in U.S. and Japan, a Flutist, Reiki Master Teachers since 2003, meditation teachers, a motorcyclist, real leaders of an established multi-faith church, foodies, and animal lovers. They are also the willing ‘personal valets’ for their handsome rescue cat, Loki.

 

Breaking News:

  • Earned our 23rd and 24th service excellence awards from glowing 5-stars reviews from happy clients. We thank you! 
  • David acquired another lovely, new, wooden flute for your musical enjoyment
  • FRESH, NEW Vows ideas just added to our cool collection of Vows Suggestions that we email to our clients! 
  • North Myrtle Beach:  starting 2024, the lawmakers of City of North Myrtle Beach SC  added several beach wedding RESTRICTIONS, unusual liabilities on you/us, plus require a $25 beach wedding permit for ceremonies and an annual permit for photographers.
    YOU SHOULD KNOW:
    • they REQUIRE we disclose both of your names and your address to them online upfront or else no permit. 
    • This is an attempt to hold you and us legally liable for any sand dunes damage by both guests OR nearby strangers during the time period and location of your permit which covers roughly 2 acres of beach access for at least 1 hour
    • They briefly mention your liability buried at the end of the second bullet on this link (but they spell it out, in no uncertain terms, on the vendors’ permit application webpage which WE must fill out, and it is buried in the new city ordinances).
    • If that breach of your privacy and irrational liability is unacceptable to you, then please allow us to guide you to other beautiful nearby beaches without these issues.  We have easy, free, no-fuss solutions! Contact us.
