W Hotel Wedding
As if June could not get any hotter, today’s wedding heats things up even more! Lauren Moore and Mark Roche-Garland’s fabulous nuptials included one of the best venues in town and tons of romantic details. L-O-V-E it. Lucky for us, Jennifer Cody of egomedia photography has captured it all!
The adorable couple met at her birthday party in 2007 and Lauren sweetly admits that it still is the best birthday present she has ever received. After an amazing time at the party, the two were soon inseparable, and a year later Lauren moved to England with Mark — followed six months later by a marriage proposal in a candle-filled apartment. She said yes and before they knew it, they were saying “I do” at Annunciation Catholic Church and atop the glittering W Hotel overlooking their old city and sharing a first kiss, dance, and sunset as a married couple.
Since they began their life together in D.C., it was the perfect city in which to host the wedding ceremony and reception. Referring to the amazing views held at the W Hotel venue, Lauren explained, “Overlooking the Washington Monument and the White House, it was such a special place to celebrate the city we both love and fell in love in.”
Lauren’s bridesmaids carried bouquets of roses in shades of pink and red, international colors of love! During the ceremony, Lauren held back happy tears as she and her husband exchanged vows and beamed at her guests who cheered in support and joy. Afterwards, on their way to the limo where bottles of celebratory champagne awaited them, the newlyweds were showered not only with affection but with pale pink rose petals too!
Despite threats of rain and bouts of wind that nearly stole Lauren’s veil from atop her head, the evening turned out to be absolutely perfect. Just as the wedding party returned to the W Hotel for the reception, the sun came out, as if making a special appearance for the celebration.
That evening at the W Hotel’s Altitude Ballroom and Terrace, as the sunset painted the perfect backdrop for the reception, guests danced, nibbled on vanilla and chocolate cupcakes, and toasted to the incredibly happy couple.
Congratulations to Lauren and Mark on their fabulous wedding and growing family – the couple is expecting their first child soon– a “honeymoon baby”!
