There are weddings, and then there are the kind of celebrations that feel like the best party you never knew you needed to crash.
Enter Caroline & Dustin—the duo who met on the dance floor, sealed the deal with pizza at 2 a.m., and threw a wedding that was definitely more “festival of love” than formal affair.
From a romantic proposal on Moonstone Beach (with a clam shell twist!) to dancing under orchard skies and a beer-tossing “beer boy” grand entrance, this isn’t your average “I do”—it’s a joyful collision of wildflowers, wild laughter, and wholehearted fun.
And just when the day couldn’t get any more magical, it delivered a quiet, unexpected sign. During their sunset photos, the couple noticed the mailbox nearby read “10180”—a number unmistakably tied to Dustin’s late grandmother, Marleen, whose presence is often felt through the recurring number “1018.” In that instant, it felt clear: Grandma Marleen was right there too, stopping by to celebrate alongside them (did you get the goosebumps there too? We sure did!).
Strap in for a wedding story that is heartfelt, hilarious, and touched by something truly special—because Caroline & Dustin didn’t just say yes… they partied into forever.
We’re thrilled to feature their love story in the just released Winter/Spring 2026 issue of Real Weddings!
