Elizabeth had a wonderful time helping plan Sofia and Afzalul’s wedding in which every detail of the traditional Hindu/western wedding was colorful and joyous! The wedding began with the baraat, in which Afzalul’s family escorted him to the ceremony. Afzalul greatly enjoyed dancing with his friends and family as they moved through the DC streets on their way to the Westin Grand Hotel. Once the groom arrived, Sofia was escorted down the aisle by her parents while the music of a sitar and tabla played in the background. After the ceremony, the couple changed into their reception attire and headed to the ballroom, which was completely transformed using amber lights and tons of red orchids. After a delicious buffet from Rangoli Restaurant and a beautiful cake designed by Fancy Cakes by Leslie the party got started! The dance floor was packed and the party went strong till the ever end. Congratulations to a very sweet and happy couple, Sofia and Afzalul! Thanks to Eli from Freed Photography who was kind enough to share the gorgeous images.

Liz & Chris – A Cosmically Perfect Wedding

The stars were aligned for this June 5 wedding, as the rain held out and everything came together perfectly for the wonderful celebration of Liz and Chris’ wedding. They met up before the ceremony at St. Albans to take some time for pictures with family and friends in the lovely Bishop’s Garden between St. Albans and the National Cathedral. Then, after a quick cool down from the 90+ degree weather, they met at the altar to exchange vows in the historic church. Guests were then whisked away to the prestigious Cosmos Club, where they enjoyed a scrumptious meal and then danced the night away. It was a pleasure for Chantal to get to know Liz, Chris and Liz’s mom Pat and we all wish you all the best with the next chapter of your lives! A big thanks to Tony from Imijination Photography for these great photos!

Erica & Chris – A Sunset Garden Wedding at Oxon Hill Manor

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!
