What do you get when you combine a sunset cruise on two private catamarans, a lobster bake for eighty, and a fire pit for roasting marshmallows? I call it perfection. Lauren & Tony invited us to join them in St Thomas a couple of days early for the pre-wedding festivities in the US Virgin Islands. Too dreamy for words... I've pulled a few scenic shots to get you in the mood for tomorrow's big wedding day reveal! |



| The Ritz-Carlton in the US Virgin Islands owns & operates their own private fleet of catamarans. Chatting with the crew was a great experience, and watching the sunset was just this side of magical. |






| Lauren & Tony hosted a lobster bake the following day for all of their friends & family. I'm talking open charcoal lobster grilling, the sea breeze blowing in off the water, palm trees quietly stirring in the air. Take me away! |



| The night ended with a marshmallow roast for the kiddos. There were many flaming dessert items served up by the little monsters. They were especially energetic because Lauren had outfitted them with pirate chests full of frightful items they used to complete their "evening attire" (note the pirate hat at 2 o'clock). |
