A Nautical, Military Wedding at Chatham Bars Inn in Chatham, Massachusetts

In a classic modern love story, Kendall Stratton (32, a veterinarian) and Gregory Kotowitz (30, a pilot in the Coast Guard) owe their beginning to Match.com. "We had both been active in the online dating scene and were about to throw in the towel when a wink from vetgirl0607 and an email back from isthis4real2284 started a relationship unlike anything either of us had experienced before," says Kendall. After a seven-month whirlwind romance, Greg asked Kendall to marry him on a dock in Nantucket. "I immediately burst into tears and dropped to the ground with him," Kendall recalls. "Of course my answer was yes!" When it came time to plan their wedding, they were determined to use their day as an opportunity to share the beauty of their beloved Cape Cod with their guests. Once they stumbled upon Chatham Bars Inn, their nautical theme fell naturally into place. ?A preppy color scheme of navy blue, coral and gold tied it all together and let the stunning beachside setting take center stage.
