And the fabulous Ms. Jamie Sears of A Simply Chic Event helped Maya knock the decor out of the park!

Maya’s mom owns a printing firm, which did their invitations. Beautiful!

They had a separate lounge for friends who wanted to sit and chat in a quieter area for a while.

And complete with a blue and green themed candy bar!

The cake design was inspired by gorgeous Maya’s dress.

Oh yeah, ice cream? We’re diggin’ it. Jane and her awesome team with Occasions rocked every ones socks off, as usual!

The beautiful hand-made porcelain ring bearer bowl held here by Maya & Josh (seen earlier in another use by the ring bearer ;)) from the always sweet Paloma’s Nest.

What a beautiful, beautiful day! Stay tuned for Part 3 coming up very soon. Trust us, you won’t want to miss some of the most crazy and fun dance moves we’ve seen in a while!

 

Maya & Josh’s Wedding at Glenview Mansion, Part 1

Happy, happy Friday! We have another fabulous real wedding for you today. Maya & Josh’s wedding day at one of our favorite venues, Glenview Mansion, started out with tons of grins, and just kept going. You’ll see what we mean. We’re SO happy to be sharing their wedding with you, in three parts, no less. Yup, we just couldn’t narrow our favorites down anymore. Keep coming back as we post more later today. First up, a little getting ready, first sight, portraits and the ceremony!

Also check out a post devoted just to their fab details, and another one for their reception.

a.dor.able flower girl.

We’ve had some seriously happy brides, but Maya just seemed to be shining from every cell in her being. Love.

She was rockin’ her gorgeous J.Crew dress, too!

So cute in his little bow tie. Guess he wasn’t so sure, though.

Yup, Anne LOVED the ring bearer!! Bet Caroline of the lovely Paloma’s Nest didn’t have that specific use in mind when she designed her gorgeous ring bearer bowls.

Check out this series of Maya and her dad just before he escorts her down the aisle that Anne captured. So touching.

So sweet…Josh had already seen her yet he was still overcome with emotion watching Maya walk down the aisle with her Dad. Love his best man looking on, too.

The ceremony was filled with lots of laughs…

…and tears. Love this shot Bill captured of Josh’s Mom.

We love the officiant while Maya tried getting Josh’s ring on. He seems so concerned!

Best. Kiss. 2010!

Married!

Dear m&j,

If there existed an award for most effusive grins, you two would be winning it hands down. In fact, we think we should create this award today on the spot, and you’ll be the inaugural winners of this traveling trophy. You really set the mood early on when you were both wiping away tears upon first seeing each other prior to your ceremony. And we couldn’t have had a more beautiful day for your wedding at Glenview Mansion, although it may have appeared to have been a little warm judging from the effort it took to put the ring onto Josh’s finger! Teddy would have been proud. 🙂

During the reception we don’t know if more people could have fit into your photo booth! And why not limit use of the props to just the booth when you can bring big-as-your-head sunglasses on the dance floor, right? That dance floor was packed! Everyone was having so much fun, including your intrepid photographers who braved the scrum!

We knew when we finally get to meet you both in person that you two were not only perfect for each other, but you were a perfect fit for us. Even a power outage and the wind storm of the century in Silver Spring couldn’t break us up that day. Simply put, we couldn’t wait for your wedding. We were thrilled to have been there for you and had a fantastic time with you, your family and friends. We laughed, we cried. We ate cake. Doesn’t get any better than that. We hope you love your photos as much as we do. Thanks so much for having us out and congratulations on your wonderful marriage!

xoxo,
…a&b

Stay tuned for Parts 2 & 3 later today!
