Leah & Aidan | Brookside Gardens | MD wedding photography

Catering: Michelle with Main Event
Calligraphy: Meant to be Calligraphy
Videography: Liz with Dolce Studio
Planner: Tara with Elegance & Simplicity

You've already gotten a little taste of Leah & Aidan's wedding with some of their photobooth images, but I figured it was about time that you got to see the rest of their gorgeous day! I had so much fun with these two out at Brookside Gardens (one of my favorite venues!). The day ended way too soon for this photographer...yes, even after nine hours of shooting! There were just so many things about their wedding that simply rocked. Let's start with Leah's dress, which almost deserves an entire blog post to itself...








Love the calligraphy that was used throughout!







Even though the plants and flowers limited our angles, they certainly made for a stunning location!



Love this!

Check out the beautiful flowers!



I think this could be my favorite from the day...hmmm...






The table assignments were various travel locations that Leah and Aidan have been to...









Aidan's brothers were hysterical. I can't even begin to describe how much fun this was!








And a good one to end on.
