A Beautiful Winter Wedding in College Park, MD

I’m still reeling over Justine and Chris’ winter wedding at The Hotel at UMD in College Park! Although it was a little colder than I’m used to when photographing weddings (and the places we photographed at outside were basically a wind tunnel), J&C + their wedding party made the most of it. Scroll down to see some glimpses from their day!

The sweetest getting-ready moment between Justine and her mom!

Justine and Chris’ wedding party was a BLAST. There were 11 groomsmen and 11 bridesmaids, making for a gigantic party that was FULL of laughter and love. We took their wedding party photos at the UMD Campus in from of Memorial Hall Chapel.

Justine and Chris ORIGINALLY met at a friend’s wedding 4 years ago! They were coupled-up in a wedding party from mutual friends, and took the job SO seriously that they ended up marrying 4 years later 😉

But seriously, I loved the silliness and love between these two. Their constant laughter and giggles made their portraits seamless. Not to mention, they had the best support from their wedding party, family and The Hotel wedding vendors.

The florals were STUNNING. Royalty Flowers did such an amazing job on this winter wedding bouquet!

The best confetti pop that I’ve ever gotten to capture ^

Cutting their cake with a sword, absolutely #iconic.

Justine and Chris had the BEST dance party with their friends and family (as pictured below). They ended the evening with a private last dance while their guests gathered at the Hotel’s bar downstairs in the lobby. This was such a lovely, private moment (with the addition of myself) that was the best end to their January Maryland wedding.

Special thanks to the following NoVA/Maryland wedding vendors that made this day so special!
