If there was a way to paint the perfect wedding day – it would be this day. The weather? Perfection. The people? Demure and then party animals. The vibes? 10/10 – highly recommend. Mandy knew exactly what she wanted for her design. Neutrals. Bay grasses. Embracing the Museum and not working against it in any […]

Marta and John were the epitome of embracing your wedding day as it comes. Unfortunately we had the dreaded r-word, rain. However, with some quick thinking we were able to pivot some florals and that allowed for a stunning backdrop for their portraits. Marta had her jaw-dropping gown custom made in New York. But I […]

It’s a sweatshirt and wool socks kind of day but that’s not stopping me from indulging in a little summertime-waterfront-wedding-nostalgia! As much as I love the soft pastels and coastal vibes of an Eastern Shore wedding, it’s just as fun to shake it up a little bit with some city-style black tie. I loved the […]

This was one of the first weddings to fall after my due date with Savannah – it was truly bittersweet to have to hand off the coordination of this one to Rachel Kelly who so graciously handled the day-of in my place, but spending the day with a snuggly newborn wasn’t a bad trade-off. Thankfully, […]

Paulina and Chase’s wedding at Historic Kent Manor Inn was one for the record books! I loved Paulina’s vision for a classic and romantic Eastern shore vibe – their black and white checkerboard dance floor was one of my favorite pieces of the day. We brought in classic shore elements through Chase’s bowtie and gold-brimmed […]
