♥ LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION ♥ Imagine your wedding day and reception with the ocean as the backdrop. Wide expansive beaches, sea gulls floating on the wind, the warmth of the sun and a beautiful house by the sea are the perfect combination for the wedding of your dreams. Village Realty can make that dream wedding a reality in one of their many exquisite rental homes. With the beach just steps away, it's not hard to picture yourself taking your vows as a gentle sea breeze lifts your veil and cools your guests. Your wedding photos will include the unspoiled natural beauty of the Outer Banks - rolling waves, sand dunes topped with graceful sea oats, and wide, pristine beaches. The Carolina blue skies are cloudless more often than not, and the purposeful limitation of bright night time lighting makes the stars in the evening sky sparkle like celestial fireworks. No wonder the Outer Banks is the number two wedding destination in the country

A 175 mile long barrier island, the Outer Banks is a natural wonder. In an oceanfront beach house, the sound of the surf will gently wake you in the morning and lullaby you to sleep at night. Conch shells and beach glass decorate the landscape and wild horses freely roam the northernmost beaches. It just doesn't get more romantic than this.

 

♥ LUXURY ♥ Village Realty offers the best of beach. Choose from an array of elite properties with as many as 12 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms. Lush landscaping sets the stage for what awaits you inside. Luxury homes include amenities such as elevators, wet bars, heated pools, saunas, gourmet kitchens, designer furnishings, state-of-the-art theater rooms and game rooms, hot tubs, Jacuzzis, custom tile, marble foyers, and soaring ceilings. Celebrate the most important day of your life in a home fully equipped and designed to meet your every need.

 

 

If you aren't planning on being married on the beach, visualize your wedding and reception poolside as guests toast to your happiness in the warmth of the sun or under a canopy of stars. If the weather isn't cooperating, you can easily move the festivities inside your spacious and beautifully decorated home.   

 

♥ VALUE ♥ Renting a beach home is a great value. House your wedding party and family under one roof for one price. Compared to other options, the per person, per night cost can be significantly lower by staying in a rental home. Our large kitchens plus additional kitchenettes allow you and your guests to purchase and prepare anything you want, anytime you want. Kitchens are fully equipped with everything you need to dine in, entertain, or just make a snack. Your guests, especially those with children, will also appreciate the opportunity to wash and dry their bathing suits, beach towels and clothing.

 

 

 

Take a break and relax with a movie and popcorn in your home theater, or lounge by the pool. Stretch out in your master suite and soak your cares away in your Jacuzzi tub. Large rooms and multiple floors and decks allow for plenty of elbow room for everyone to gather.

 

♥ CONVENIENCE ♥ Make it easy on yourself and your guests. Renting a beach home for your wedding is the ultimate in convenience. Linens and towels (even for the kitchen) are provided for all rental homes and beds are made. We even include a starter supply of kitchen and toiletry items. The kitchen facilities can accommodate your caterer; there are multiple rest rooms; free parking; instant access to your personal belongings; plenty of options to keep children occupied and supervised (theater and game room); the beach and pool are in your backyard; and if you want the party to last longer - it's your house - party on - you're already home!

 

 

 

 

 

 

♥ PRIVACY ♥ You and your guests will enjoy the privacy of your own pool, your own hot tub, and your own private walkway to the beach. Swim whenever you wish because the pool is always open. So is the kitchen, the game room and the bar!  Have your rehearsal dinner catered in your beautiful home and enjoy it in your own elegant dining room.

 

 

 

On the big day, you and your wedding party can dress in the privacy of your home. No rushing and no wrinkled dresses from riding in a car to the venue. Not having to share your wedding location with another bride or event is another big plus - your wedding is the only event taking place at your location. 

 

 

If you are looking for an unforgettable wedding or reception location that is loaded with amenities, is cost effective, convenient and private, let the professionals at Village Realty help you find the perfect beach house. We are known for our extraordinary customer service and attention to detail. Call either our Nags Head or Corolla office and we promise to help you make your dreams come true.
