Christina & TJ

St. Patrick's and Hotel Monaco

April 26, 2008

My first wedding of the spring season was Christina and TJ's wedding at St. Patrick's Church and the Hotel Monaco in DC's Chinatown/Gallery Place neighborhood. Every detail was perfectly pulled together with reds and blacks and their reception was highlighted with fantastic lighting by John Farr and flowers by Petal's Edge. The wedding had a fun, modern feel that reflected their personalities. Pictures courtesy of the wonderful Lori Love...

Congrats Christina & TJ! :)

Andria & Kevin were married in Annapolis on December 29th. Their ceremony was held in the historical St. Anne's Church on Church Circle in Annapolis. It was a military wedding with members of both the Navy and Army in attendance. The bouquets and cocktail hour were highlighted with reds and greens to follow the holiday season whereas their reception was all white resembling a winter wonderland. It was a magical evening-- congrats! :)

Photos by: Lori Love! Jennifer & Brendan had a fantastic wedding on December 1st in DC. The day began with an afternoon ceremony at the breathtaking St. Matthew's Cathedral followed by dinner and dancing at the Westin Grand in the Promenade Ballroom (one of my favorites!).

Jennifer, Brendan and their bridal party stopped off at the Capitol building in between the ceremony and reception to take pictures. I love how they turned out!

Scroll down to see more of the wonderful details that made their day unique!

Cocktail hour at the Westin... it was gorgeous lit up with tons of candlelight.

Rachel and Jordan

Park Hyatt Washington
Photography by: Jon & Sarah McBride of Vantage Pictures

Rachel & Jordan's wedding at the Park Hyatt Washington was elegant and chic. From the first day I began working with Rachel and Jordan they had a clear vision of what they imagined for their day and it was wonderful to watch it all come together!

The ceremony was beautiful-- submerged orchids lined the aisle as they were married under a white chuppah covered in Jordan's tallis (prayer shall). The cocktail hour featured stations of foods from around the world-- Asian food (complete with fortune cookies!), a Mexican station, Mezze, and Antipasto stations... and the lavender colored signature martinis were a huge hit!

The ballroom glowed with shapes of cherry blossoms and branches reflected in purple lighting against the draped walls. The centerpieces were stunning... the band was great-- I am not exaggerating when I say there were times through out the night where NO ONE was in their seats!

And I cannot forget to mention one of my favorite ideas Rachel & Jordan had for their wedding reception--- a sundae station! Brownies, sprinkles, chocolate sundae served in adorable little sundae glasses! (oh and... instead of the standard wedding cake, their's was chocolate chip brownie instead of CAKE!). Lots of sweets for a very sweet couple (I'm cheesy I know, but its true!)

Mazel Tov, Rachel & Jordan!

Mao + Chris!

Mao + Chris! I love these two! They were married this past Sunday at the Four Seasons in Georgetown and their wedding was gorgeous! A perfect day for a ceremony in the hotel's courtyard, followed by cocktails outside by the C&O Canal and then into the Corcoran Ballroom for an evening of delicious food and non-stop dancing.

Chris is an awesome local wedding photographer ....I know my clients who are working with him will be excited to see these pics! :-)
