‘We had, basically, a disaster wedding planner who took on our wedding and then did nothing for six weeks’ she told E!, adding, ‘So this whole wedding has been planned in the last four weeks.’
Through ‘sheer determination’ she was able to find a new planner and still pull off her dream wedding, without scaling back any of the personal touches that were essential. And she did it while her fiancé’s mother was visiting.
As for the ceremony, it was officiated by an ‘amazing’ local celebrant named Caroline, who Ferrier called ‘fantastic.’
Wanting to avoid a ‘stiff ceremony,’ the bride made humor a priority for the festivities.
‘I think even in the speech that she gives before she marries us, that the words “margarita” and “tequila” come up like twice,’ she joked.
Caroline also got to tell the couple’s guests their ‘love story’ of how they met, which began in between filming seasons four and five of Below Deck Med.

In her defense, Ferrier said she never hid the fact that she ‘suffered from anxiety and had anti-anxiety medication.’
‘I didn’t like that it was presented as I had drugs on board, because I don’t like that stigma,’ she said.
The reality star went on to reveal that the anxiety medication was for a mental illness.
