Amy and Rene’s love was witnessed by 45 of their closest friends and family as they celebrated in the intimate Nest at the historic Willard hotel. Chantal was thrilled to be a part of their special day as they exchanged vows in front of their good friend (and amazing dancer) Evan before enjoying a delectable meal complete with German sauerbraten and spaetzel, a tribute to Rene’s German heritage. They then danced and waltzed the night away. Greenworks did an amazing job with the flowers and a HUGE thanks to Eli Turner from Freed Photography for these amazing shots!

Chantal had the pleasure of working with Kristin and Brent on their April 17th wedding where cherry blossoms were also featured across town at the Walker Chapel United Methodist Church and the Washington Golf Country Club. The bride glowed from head to toe and the groom was overwhelmed with joy as they said their “I Do’s” and then headed over to the country club for some delicious food, stunning views of the city and a packed dance floor. The groom’s idea of tall cherry blossom branches filled the room nicely and their color coordinated candy bar was also a big hit! Thanks to Maria Vicencio for these lovely pics and a big congratulations to Kristin and Brent who are so sweet and adorable!

Roshan and Ale took time out with their photographers, Procopio Photography, for a fabulous engagement session in DC. The theme of their August 7 wedding is ‘Love is Sweet’ and yes, candy will be incorporated throughout! For their wedding, we chose the Andrew Mellon Auditorium and we will be modernizing it a bit with a round bar, lounge furniture and hot pink and tangerine up lights – perfect for the such a festive occasion!

Cherry blossoms were definitely in full bloom for Matt and Melissa’s April 17th wedding. From the stunning centerpieces to the elegant (and delicious) 4 tier wedding cake the blossoms highlighted the soft tones of the ballroom at Belmont Country Club lending to the elegant spring theme the bride hoped for. Earlier in the afternoon the couple was married at Our Lady of Hope Catholic Church in Sterling. A special thanks to jan michele photography for the beautiful photos!
Congrats to Melissa and Matt!

Erica and Chris had a fabulous evening wedding at Oxon Hill Manor. It was a bit chilly but the bride and groom exchanged vows in the garden with the sun setting over the Potomac. The bride looked nothing less than amazing in her Romona Keveza gown and cathedral length veil. Guests enjoyed a fabulous dinner from Design Cuisine and the bride and groom opted to serve individual cakes with a choice of toppings to each guests instead of a cake. The guests danced the night away with the band and stopped for a quick break to enjoy a Chicago Style hot dog!
Congrats to Erica and Chris!
Thanks to Rodney Bailey for the awesome images!
