It made perfect sense that Corey and Suzanne would chose the Boathouse at Frontstreet Village to tie the knot. Both are avid fans of the NC coast and keep their boat stored in the stacks there for quick access to all the fun and sun out on the water. Their family and friends seemed to also enjoy the gorgeous views and when the common summer thunderstorm rolled through, the party moved inside until the brief rainstorm passed and the celebration continued until dusk when they made a joyous departure on their boat into a dramatic Beaufort sunset.

The grounds of the Boathouse make a terrific venue for events
