K and V are married 8/30-8/31/08

This was such a fabulous two day wedding ceremony full of tradition and family!!  Day one was a beautiful American wedding that was held outside at the Regency at Dominion Valley and I finally got to photograph a ceremony at their amphitheater.  Wow what a great location and with the beautiful sunset it is just beyond perfect.

Day two was the traditional hindi ceremony and the colors were beyond belief. I really enjoyed every bit of this ceremony even the part of being pelted by the flower peddles the guest threw at them! ;)

Of course I have too many that I want to share!

Laura and Steve’s Wedding 8/24/08

I meet Laura and Steve from our now mutual friend Rob that I had the pleasure of meeting through Crystal and Dan’s wedding last year.  The wedding and reception was at Elkridge Furnace Inn in MD. Laura and Steve are such a amazing people and I think that really showed at their wedding by looking at how many of their friends and co-workers came out and contributed to it.  Laura and Steve are in the band with the US Army.  Their choir group sang twice during their ceremony.  Then the band played during the beginning of their cermony before DJ took over the night.  It was truley a beautiful ceremony and location.  Here are some highlights from the day/night:

Katie and Chris’s wedding 8/9/08

Katie and Chris were married on 8/9/09 at Centreville Baptist Church and then the reception was at the fabulous Regency at Dominion Valley.  I have looked forward to this wedding since I first meet Katie, her Mom and Chris.  I couldn’t help but to smile when one of Katie’s Brothers came up and said “Oh you are Allison, I heard you are a lot of fun.”  Definatly made me know the connection was there and that the family would be a blast!  The Thriller Michael Jackson dance from Chris’s brother so proved that everyone was here to enjoy themselves.  We had a wonderful time and so excited to be a part of their special day.  Congrats to you both!
