  • Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum Wedding – Ally and Jeff

    October 8, 2012   //   Weddings

    bride at maritime museum in st michaels

    I started off spending time with Ally and Jeff when I photographed their beach engagement session earlier this year.  And I just knew their wedding was going to be a beauty!  Ally and Jeff met while in St. Michael’s so when it came time to search for a wedding venue, Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum was the place.  It provided the outdoor nautical feel that they were looking for and sentimental value for its location.  Lauryn Prattes from Table 6 Productions designed the wedding to a “T” complete with sailboats and nautical stripes.

  • Sprinkles Cupcake Event – Hosted by EVOKE & Events in the City

    September 18, 2012   //   miscellaneous

    Sprinkles Cupcakes, good friends and useful take home tools… what more can a girl ask for you?  This fabulous and festive event hosted by EVOKE and Events in the City was held for DC wedding planners to share their “tricks of the trade” so that planners can replenish their emergency kit for the upcoming fall season.  Items brought ranged from oil blotting papers from Teresa of Rex and Regina to a bottle of bourbon (this comes from an old wives tale that if you bury a bottle of bourbon at your wedding site it will ward off rain) brought by Laura and Megan of Events in the City.  This event was held in the Sprinkles room upstairs that is located above theirr cupcake store in Georgetown and it is available for events (complete with cupcakes).  It’s a gorgeous room!

    Hostesses: EVOKE and Events in the City
    Flowers: Holly Chapple
    Cupcakes: Sprinkles Cupcakes

  • Four Seasons Baltimore Wedding – Carolyn and Colin

    September 5, 2012   //   Weddings

    four seasons baltimore wedding

    When they signed up for their work softball team, Carolyn and Colin could barely guess that six years later it would lead to their wedding at the Four Seasons in Baltimore.  What started out as a second glance for their athletic skills later turned into a courtship between Carolyn and Colin that lasted for six years.  Fast forward four and a half years later and Colin surprised his future fiancé with a trip to Ireland.  And being that they are both Irish babies, the trip was a meaningful and sentimental place to both of them.  When the plane took off, Carolyn thought to herself this could be “the trip” where he proposes.  But after driving up the Irish coast for 6 full days, Carolyn came to the decision that he wasn’t going to do it, because “Who could hang onto a ring for that long?”.  But little did she know Colin had it all planned out.  Because when they reached the top of the Cliffs of Moher, Colin decided it was the perfect time and he popped the question.  Congratulations Carolyn and Colin!

    They picked the Four Seasons Baltimore for their wedding even before the hotel was finished completed.  Carolyn and Colin walked around the heavy construction with hard hats on and decided it was “the one” because it had such great views of their city, Baltimore.
