Memorial Day Weekend Bay Wedding

This upcoming weekend kicks off the unofficial start of summer and boy-oh-boy do I have a wedding that will make you swoon for the season ahead of us!

There is so much to love about Fegan and Chris’ big day — thoughtful bayside details, lush gorgeous flowers, romantic historic properties and gardens, killer water views…well, check out the pictures and you will see for yourself why I am giddy over last Memorial Day weekend’s nuptials…

The ceremony took place at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church , the oldest Catholic Church in continuous use from the original 13 colonies, first established in 1662.

I especially love Fegan’s dress which was designed from scratch and incorporated pieces of her mom’s dress in the sash and top – wasn’t she just stunning?! I adore this special detail!

After the bride and groom exchanged their vows, the wedding party, family and friends headed to Sotterley Plantation , a picturesque old tide water plantation — even older than Monticello and Mount Vernon.

With the Southern Maryland location, crabs played a big role in the wedding decor and details! Bushel baskets were used to hold ceremony programs, crabs appeared on the escort cards and table numbers (how fab is the escort card display by Amaryllis !?!), and bushel baskets with flip flops labeled “dancing shoes” were set for guests on the dance floor…love, love, love!

The dance floor was PACKED the entire night and Jack, the bride’s brother, even convinced the band, Back to Zero , to come back for 2 encore rounds. How fun!

Happy 1st Anniversary Fegan and Chris! ox.
