Wedding Pictures: Formal Pictures

After the ceremony we took the traditional formal pictures at the church with our family and bridal party. Then we took pictures around the church and Georgetown waterfront with our bridal party. We are so thankful for the beautiful weather that allowed us to take such amazing pictures!

There are many beautiful, bright-colored townhouses across the street from our church

Some college students were having a party down the alley we are standing in front of which kept us laughing

Wedding Pictures: Ceremony

Our ceremony was held at Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Georgetown. We have been members of Holy Trinity for over five years and always knew that we would be married there. Our priest attended Georgetown University with P's dad which made an extra special connection. My favorite thing about our ceremony pictures are they perfectly capture how happy we both felt on April 13th.

I will never forget the feeling when those doors opened and we took our first step into the church

I could not stop smiling the whole walk down the aisle

Finally together! I love the look on P's face 

Our priest gave a wonderful homily

We do!

Married!

Wedding Pictures: Getting Ready

We were very fortunate to receive our wedding pictures two weeks after the wedding. We have enjoyed going through them several time and sharing them with friends and family. I thought I would share some of my favorites of the day over a couple of posts. Enjoy!

The morning of the wedding I got ready with my bridal party in a suite atop the Key Bridge Marriott overlooking Georgetown. It was a beautiful day and I'll alway cherish the memories of getting ready with my favorite ladies.

Allison helped me with the veil. It was the veil Allison wore at her wedding and my "something borrowed"

My girls!

Time to head to the church

P and the groomsmen also got ready at the Key Bridge Marriott. They took a few pre-wedding ceremonies around the area where our cocktail hour would be and around the church. 

The groom!

So handsome

Stay tuned for more!

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to my beautiful, caring, and always supportive mom. I love you!

TGIF and Checking In!

Happy Friday!

I'm finally checking in after being home from Jamaica for nearly a week. We had a wonderful time on our honeymoon and really dragged our feet about returning to the real world. This afternoon we're off to Ohio to pick up Calvin from the in-laws. They have been taking care of him for nearly three weeks. We miss our little guy so much and can't wait to have our furry kid back home! Hope everyone has a great weekend. Below are a few of our favorite honeymoon pictures captured with the iPhone.

For now here are a few of my favorite pictures from the weekend posted on Facebook or found on my phone (thanks Allison!!).
