I can’t believe we are already over a week into the new year! It was definitely a cold one, but did that faze our amazing bride??? Not at all! This girl was running on nothing but love, adrenaline, and champagne, and life was good! Stephanie and Dean did a first look at their gorgeous venue Celebrations at the Bay, and then we even had time to pop some bubbly, and eat some pizza before the family got there for photos. That’s right, Steph ate pizza in her wedding dress, and while she was at it, won a bet. Nothing like a little extra $50 pocket change before you head off to your honeymoon! We were all smiles this past New Years as we ushered into new year surrounded by love, celebration, and a room full of smiles! Congratulations you two!

There are just to many wonderful things that I think of when I think of Lindy and Will. When you see the two of them together, it is so obvious that they are each others compliment. There is a quiet vivaciousness that Lindy has, and you can tell just how perfectly suited Will is for her. They have a love of all things Baltimore, which of course is an absolute bonus. We had to have the game on while Lindy was getting ready and that just made my day. There wedding had a classic and vintage style. I LOVED the girls champagne colored dresses, and Lindy’s fur wrap. We did a first look at Lindy’s parent’s house, and I am pretty certain I had to help Will pick his jaw up from the ground when he saw her. I loved their intimate wedding at Linwoods. The venue was perfect for them. Elegant, inviting, festive with some of the most delicious food I have ever had. I am so happy to have shared in their wedding. Lindy, Will, and Mason, I wish you a most wonderful new year together, and a lifetime of happiness.

I absolutely LOVE the way Shannon and John embraced Halloween fun with class. One could think that have a giant dinosaur or 500 plus Disney characters at your wedding could make it get a little crazy. But somehow, their wedding was just the right concoction of Halloween festivities with elegant ballroom. Her attention to detail even include family photos where she and John were Mr. and Ms. (at the time) Frankenstein. Shannon made all of their center pieces, had a fun crafts table for the kids, a trick or treat candy selection, and of course a costume contest. Her guests did not disappoint. We had so many fabulous costumes like special guests Wesley and Buttercup from the Princess Bride, E-T and Elliott, Edgar Allen Poe and his Raven, and of course the couple of the hour, Mr and Mrs Frankenstein who showed up later in the evening in time to cut their cake and show off their crazy dance moves. Shannon and John wanted their friends and family to be there and just have a fun celebration, without their evening being too planned out for them. They did a first look, and even had their cocktail hour before their wedding! (Genious!!) Their venue in downtown Baltimore Tabriz’s was absolutely perfect. The weather was what every fall bride could hope for, and the night could not have been more magical. Congratulations to you both, and thank you for letting share in your wedding!
