The BrideJill McKinney, 34 The GroomShane Sentz, 30 The DateJuly 17 It was a no-brainer that their wedding would have a bit of an airplane theme, and that it would take place at The Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay in California -- an oceanside golf resort that the couple frequently flew over together throughout Jill's aerial education. The hotel is more of a cocktails-by-the-fire sort of place than a beach resort, Jill says. So they chose a warm, coppery color scheme with soft blue and celery green accents to reflect the ocean.
