Kelsey & Will’s Elegant DC Wedding | Carnegie Institution for Science

It’s hard to narrow down all my favorite moments from Kelsey & Will’s wedding day this June! Their toasts were filled with love and a good bit of humor and fun memories. Their reception space was elegant and the food was beautifully enticing!! But some of my all time favorites were when Kelsey and Will first saw each other for their first look outside their hotel, and when we got to grab portraits around the tidal basin and at their venue! Oh and of course, when Kelsey’s little niece hopped into the father-daughter dance and sweetly hugged them both the whole time! It was an awesome celebration to be a part of! These two are hardworking and caring people, and are truly surrounded by a village of people that love them back. Congratulations Kelsey and Will!!!

Love the selection of local goodies they had in their welcome bags!

How glam is Kelsey (and the Mayflower hotel too!)?!

The cutest!!

Love these alternate angles my mom and I got of this same shot!

It was a hot day, but these two made it look so good!

It’s totally okay if in the moment, something feels too posed and you just need to laugh a minute ;) Love these candid moments the most!

SO Beautiful you two!!

Perfection

This bridal party was so fantastic!! And how stylish is this getting ready room!

Kelsey’s grandmother was their officiant! It was the sweetest, most touching ceremony! Love this idea so much!
