Hilary & Noah 
August 7th, 2010
St. John's + The Fairfax, Embassy Row

To me this wedding is "classic Washington"... the St. John's Church ceremony, the simple yet stunning details, gold accents, ornate chandeliers, a classic car... I could go on and on.  

Hilary's stunning dress
A very sweet father, daughter moment just before the ceremony began.




Portraits in Lafayette Square

 

An amazing cake to mirror the design of Hilary's dress... by Fluffy Thoughts

Guests were welcomed to their seats with Historical Chocolates in gold boxes with ivory ribbons complimenting the ornate gold rimmed chargers and champagne flutes. The black chivari chairs and pintucked black linens were a beautiful contrast to the ivory and gold.
The dance floor was packed ALLLL night long thanks to their amazing band, Spectrum.

Congratulations Hilary & Noah!

Lynley & Matt

St. Alban's & Old Ebbitt Grill

I have to say, I think the Bishop's Garden at the National Cathedral might be the ultimate place for wedding portraits. Lynley & Matt are the definition of a fun loving couple. They are silly and sweet. Take a look at these incredible photos by Rachel Naft of RMN Photography and you will see what I mean. Thanks so much for letting me be a part of your big day!



















Congratulations on a spectacular evening!

Carly & George
Annapolis, MD
July 2010
US Naval Chapel & The Annapolis Yacht Club
Photography by Matt Mendelsohn

Carly & George's wedding was perfect. For brides seeking the key to a perfect day...take a few cues from Carly & George! They filled their day with fun details-- Mariachi band, cigars, and a beautiful waterfront location but most of all their sheer, genuine happiness on their wedding day was contagious. The guests had the time of their lives. No one said it better than their photographer, Matt Mendelsohn. Check out his commentary and more photographs here.

Leslie & Gavrie
Woodend Sanctuary
May 31, 2010

Leslie & Gavrie had an amazing wedding at Woodend Sanctuary in Chevy Chase, MD. The day was filled with fun, laughter, and beautiful details. They chose to play up the natural beauty of Woodend with herb favors, beautiful potted plants on tables and natural colors. Leslie looked unbelievably chic in her tea length dress and bird cage veil.

Joel and the crew from Occasions served a delicious meal including a dessert buffet with "piles of pies" (unreal!). Sarah Hodzic's vintage style perfectly captured their day.
