Summer, Fall, Winter, Spring - no matter the season the Liriodendron Mansion is FLAWLESS! It is easily one of our favorite venues in Maryland mainly because the sunsets are ridiculously beautiful! The way the sunlight flows through the trees and creates this ethereal glow to the world is magical. Haley and Joe not only chose the Liriodendron Mansion for their wedding, but also for their engagement photos. Getting to wander the grounds with them at two different times was incredibly special. Once with anticipation, and once with so much "WE DID IT!" excitement. At different moments during the wedding, you could see that excitement bubble to the surface with both of them holding hands and jumping enthusiastically. Watching Haley and Joe in those moments of excitement overload is extra confirmation that true love is real. Haley and Joe, you two are absolutely fabulous, and Shawn and I are so thankful that we got to spend your wedding day with you two! The love that you have for each other is so beautiful, and we cannot wait to see how your love grows and deepens in the future! Fun stuff from the day! Haley's garter is a family heirloom, her grandmother, her mother, all of her aunts, and cousins ♥️♥️ Haley and her Cousin, Lauren (also the MOH) wore matching bracelets! Haley incorporated a lot of family jewelry into her bridal look including her grandmother's necklace and bracelet. Such a great way to have those family members...

I am giddy with excitement to share Sam and Bart's Annapolis wedding day today! Not only did they have a gorgeous ceremony and dinner at the William Paca House & Gardens, but they also had a brass band march them and all of their guests to the Harbor Queen boat for dancing! I don't think it gets much cooler than a giant dance party on a boat, and I think Sam, Bart, and every single one of their guests would agree! These two not only wanted to celebrate their nuptials with each other, but they really wanted to put an emphasis on the family and friends that attended. Their guests were so incredibly lovely, and while it's common to see happiness during a wedding, you could also feel it for Sam and Bart. There was an overwhelming warmth that every guest brought out for these two and it was truly such an honor to witness. Especially when we hit the Harbor Queen and everyone busted out their dance moves. When I say that the dance floor was wild - I 1000% mean it. The whole day was a blast, but getting to experience the energy on that dance floor and boat was, oh my gosh, something I will remember and try to channel for a very long time. Sam and Bart - Thank you both so much. Your day was filled with so much brilliance that I know wouldn't have been possible if you two weren't such magical and...
