Kayla & Michael's Wedding | February 25th, 2017

The Westin | Alexandria, VA

Kayla and Michael are wonderful people to spend time with. We fell for them during an epic autumn engagement session. 

Kayla is so beautiful, and one of the most down to earth ladies I've met. Michael is her perfect match, such a sweet, easy going guy. I love their playful relationship, and their loyalty to family, and their doggies. Our kind of couple!

Winter Weddings can be so special. As we move into the height of June wedding season, it's nice to reflect on this February event, where all our focus and attention was with Kayla & Michael.

The Westin provided shelter from unpredictable weather, including an unexpected heat wave. Inside, the girls could still wrap up in their vintage furs, a gift from the bride, and enjoy a hot toddy at cocktail hour. 

The ceremony was moved inside, due to weather, but this couple truly took it in stride. Vows were heartfelt and tear filled as these college sweethearts became husband and wife in front of their loved ones. Loved ones who did not hesitate to pelt them with lavender as they recessed back down the aisle!

The reception was one of my all-time favorites, thanks to the musical stylings of The Oynx Band, who kept the dance floor filled from the moment the reception doors opened, until the end of the night. 

What a celebration of love and life! 

Congratulations to the Newlyweds!!!
