Since Settle is the director of sales for Marlin Outdoor Advertising, the owner decided what better way to welcome his little girl into the world than with a massive billboard advertising her grand arrival.
Sure enough, gracing the side of the highway was a 12-foot by 24-foot billboard reading “Welcome to the world Carter Louise Settle.”

Within minutes, Will’s phone was already blowing up with more than 15 texts and calls from excited friends who passed the hard-to-miss roadside announcement.
“It’s just eye-catching,” said one Bluffton resident who lives right next to Carter’s billboard. “That face: She is cute. And that name!”
“When I first saw it, it was an ‘Oh my God’ moment,'” said Will. “It is so pink [and] so large. It’s pretty obnoxious, I hate to say. It is so in your face, you wouldn’t believe it.”
One thing’s for sure, NOBODY’s gonna forget the day that the beautiful “Carter Louis Settle” made her debut on planet earth.
