Duck North Carolina Turn Your Wedding Into A Vacation

Duck North Carolina is a town in the famous Outer Banks of North Carolina and named for the ducks and other waterfowl that populate it

. The little town is right on the brink of Pine Island Audubon Sanctuary, within walking distance of beautiful, lonely, windswept beaches. Its a fascinating destination wedding locations and for Duck vacations, where the visitor can find lovely inns and restaurants that specialize in the local cuisine.

A Wild and Windy Wedding

When it comes to destination beach weddings, Duck is a singularly interesting place to get married. A couple that would have their ceremony on one of the beaches have already proven themselves adventurous. The wind can be fierce and its no wonder that many folks who go on destination wedding spots are aficionados of wind surfing. One can easily see a gale snatching way the minister's words, the bride and groom's responses or even sweeping her veil into the ocean if she doesnt hold on to it! Moreover, the couple and the wedding party have to be mindful of the time of year when they hold the ceremony, because too many hurricanes have chosen the Outer Banks to make landfall. Hurricane season begins in the fall and people should plan their vacation accordingly!

Wildfowl and Wild Horses

But, as with most weddings the real fun begins after the ceremony. After the reception at the inn the couple can stay at Duck for their honeymoon. They can take strolls up and down the beach or join the windsurfers if the ocean proves to be a bit too rough for a swim. They can also wander around the woods of the sanctuary, and if theyre birders this vacation will be even more special, given the profusion of waterfowl and other birds that either visit the place seasonally or live there year round. If their inn rents bicycles they can range even farther afield and they might even catch a glimpse of a herd of the wild horses that live in the banks and if theyre very stealthy, can come close enough to take a good photograph or two without spooking them.

In the evening, tired but happy, the couple can return to their inn and have a great seafood dinner, maybe of oysters or shrimp, or the catch of the day in the window-walled restaurant with a good white wine. If its warm enough they might have dinner outside, surrounded by the calls of crickets, owls and tiny frogs. Pots of citronella keep away the mosquitoes, that one penalty that comes with the blessing of Duck vacations. Then, to bed.
