Katie & Ryan

The first of a long run of weddings for us! Katie and Ryan were married May 24th and it was fabulous! Like many of our couples they planned their wedding from afar. First from Hawaii then from D.C. They are both such calm and endearing people and their love between each other is inspiring. Since Katie was in D.C. I had the great opportunity to work closely with her mother, Lisa. Katie - mad props to your mom because she is amazing. I'm a little jealous ;)

Meet our evening's vendors:

{Insert standard disclaimer of how bad my pics are....}

I have been waiting for someone to use a typewriter as a guest book. Bonus points because it was the bride's grandfathers. Love personalization! 

So I LOVE the Queen City Club. Seriously check it out if you haven't booked a venue. It's like having your wedding at a grand house that you don't have to clean up! 

Cocktail hour and dancing are held in this room {same room in the next 2 pics}

Then you travel down this hall to the dining room for dinner

Congrats Katie and Ryan! We had a blast - thanks for allowing us to play a role in your wedding day! 

P.S. The food at the QCC was ah-maz-ing. Seriously the best wedding food we've had. sooooo good!
