Parker’s Garage LBI NJ Wedding | Julie & Mark

Julie and Mark’s Parker’s Garage LBI NJ Wedding day was picture perfect. Warm, blue skies, sun shining, only the slightest breeze in the air. For a wedding season filled with rainout days, this was the kind of day that makes 2023 couples jealous. Julie and Mark had an intimate affair at Parker’s Garage on LBI and worked together with Sarah Montgomery, of Sarah Montgomery Events. The day started with their first look at the Centre Street Beach in Beach Haven on Long Beach Island then we head a couple blocks back to Parker’s Garage LBI for their ceremony and reception. 

The sunset shot at the end of the blog might make more sense, but this is my blog so I do what I want here, not what makes sense…Parker's Garage LBI wedding bride and groom at sunset on the bay in New JerseyHeading onto the beach for some pics…Parker's Garage LBI wedding bride and groom on center street beach in NJ Parker's Garage LBI wedding bride and groom on center street beach in NJ Parker's Garage LBI wedding bride and groom on beach in NJ Parker's Garage LBI wedding bride and groom on center street beach in NJ Parker's Garage LBI wedding bride and groom on beach in NJ Parker's Garage LBI wedding bride and groom on center street beach in NJ  LBI wedding bride and groom on center street beach in NJ Parker's Garage LBI wedding groom picking up bride on beach in NJ LBI wedding bride and groom on center street beach in NJ Parker's Garage LBI wedding bride and groom on center street beach in NJThe wind on the beach can be quite tough to work with, but we had the perfect gentle sea breeze.Parker's Garage LBI wedding bride and groom on center street beach in NJ
