Nick and Danielle's Shrimp-Themed Garden Party Wedding

Nick’s shrimp boutineer

A shrimp-themed wedding?

You may wonder “Why?.”

Why would anyone choose shrimp as their wedding theme?

Well, here’s the love story behind the theme.

Nick and Danielle saw each other from across the bar at Little Trouble on Atlanta’s Westside. She noticed the tattoo of a shrimp on his arm and walked over to comment on it.

“I told him that shrimp are the cockroaches of the sea” Danielle says. He replied “I know.”

According to Danille, the two “pretty much just fell in love after that.”

 Shrimp, a theme throughout their relationship, became a theme for their wedding, naturally.

Here are a few of my favorite photos from their wedding

Nick points out a part in his vows that danielle had included in hers. She thought he added at the last minute.

OF course, the menu of the day included shrimp cocktail.
