the love story
Christian and Grace met in 2003, the summer before their freshman years at Johns Hopkins University. They quickly became friends, and Christian began to actively pursue Grace, but she refused to budge until two years later. The wait was worth it, and the two began a romantic relationship. After eight years of waiting, the two became husband and wife.
the wedding
Grace and Christian’s wedding took place on a beautiful fall day in Virginia. The only thing more stunning that day was the bride herself!
Grace, you were gorgeous <3
Grace wore delicate, elegant accessories, and carried a full, lush bouquet of fresh flowers created by Petals and Promises.
The bride was absolutely beautiful!
The wedding party took pictures on the regal steps just outside the George Washington Masonic Memorial.
The bridesmaids wore short, bright mint green dresses – so cute!
The handsome groomsmen wore classy gray suits and matching blue ties
Such a fun bridal party <3
It was such a blessing to capture Christian and Grace. They are an adorable, loving couple <3
Our favorite photo of you two <3
