Baltimore Engineer's Club Wedding: Kimberly + Steve

It's their home.  Or, it used to be.  But they still have a fondness for Baltimore and all of its memories and charm, and in their hearts they still feel at home there.  The apartment building where Steve picked up Kimberly for their first date is about 7 blocks away from the Engineer's Club, and they spent many date nights down at Fells Point.  And with the Engineer's Club being steeped in history, and Steve being a huge history buff, this was the perfect venue for their special day.  

Kimberly got ready in a quiet calm as her sweet bridesmaids gushed over how amazing she looked.  And that calm exterior remained until she saw Steve for the first time.  They opted for a first look, which I love, so they could have plenty of time for portraits before the ceremony.  And during this intimate moment shared just between the two of them, Kimberly's calmness broke into soft tears of joy and happiness at seeing her groom for the first time.  And in a way that only he could, Steve comforted her and loved her.  And it was this way throughout the rest of the day - the exchanges between them were a language of their own love for each other.

Kimberly's beautiful bouquet was comprised of white roses and peonies, and she chose these classy Stuart Weitzman heels for her wedding shoes.  



Looking stunning in her Modern Trousseau gown...


And the portraits - we had plenty of time to walk around outside for some wonderful photos, not having to rush and get them done during cocktail hour.  It made for a truly enjoyable session!











Kimberly found these milk glass vases and bought several of them in different shapes and sizes.  She asked Fleur de Lis to create different arrangements for each - whatever she thought suited the vases best, and she ended up with some unique and beautiful arrangements to place throughout the cocktail and dinner tables.



I love this glance Kimberly's father stole just as they reached the chuppah.


As Kimberly read her vows and became choked up with tears, Steve placed a comforting hand on her cheek...




I loved these fun chocolates Kimberly made for their guests!








Congratulations Kimberly and Steve!  Thank you for allowing me to be a party of your beautiful and special day!
