Thank you! I've never been in a wine cave until we explored wedding venues (we chose Calistoga Ranch). There are several in Napa/Sonoma avail for events. Wine caves have such a cool vibe.

I absolutely love it!!!

Sounds like tons of fun and looks beautiful!

This looks super awesome! I think it’s ofetty neat you kept it a surprise!

Wow this is so unique and still stunning! I love it!

Thank you, all! We wanted a sacred ceremony so we wore traditional apparel (below). After we walked guests into the cave they were so distracted by decor, accordionist and drinks we easily sneaked out to change in our pirate gear!

Most decor was DIY. If anyone wants to make cheap rope and twine decor, and see our fav skeleton, see my post.

This looks like so much fun! Super cute!!

Those are beautiful pictures. It is such a unique and wonderful theme.

This looks amazing!! Also secretly want your dress Congrats and a job well done!

Just lovely. What a fun theme as well. Your dress is beautiful.

I ordered the bodysuit/skirt in 2016 so they still might be avail in gown shops.

Last pic, hubby's BF is an actor. Interrupted our welcome speech as...Capt'n Jack. Guests went nuts. Stayed in character all night. (Hubby built parrot perch. Animated talking parrot from eBay).

Very beautiful!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR THEME! I’m doing a Disney theme and each of my tables will be decorated as a different Disney movie. I will have a Pirates of the Caribbean themed table as well. Since I’m just doing a table found these 2 items I thought would be nice and maybe just sprinkle some gold coins along with it.

Thats such a cute idea and your ideas look they'll put your wedding day together.
Congratulations and Best Wishes

LOVE the Black Pearl ship! (and Disney table ideas) Octopus is really cool but not sure you need it? Gold coins, yes. Colored gems can look fake IMHO. What about pillar candle or 2 tealights in rustic votives so light flickers off the ship? Flickering flameless work great too. Can't wait to see your pics!

I was thinking of the Krakken that is why I got the octopus 🐙. It’s not necessary. Thanks I’ll use your suggestion also with the pillar candle and tea lights. Again love love your wedding pictures

I totally get it. But each piece of decor keeps adding up and I think that ship is freakin' awesome. You can always add it later if you have budget left.
