The fellas were in good spirits as we rustled up a few photos by the old mill and goofed off on some old farm equipment.

Although Sean and Vanessa were saving their first glimpse of each other that day for the church isle, they still spent a very sweet and emotional moment reading their cards to each other holding hands around the room door that separated them. There were more than a couple of wet hankies in the room as her sisters and best friends witnessed this sentimental little pause in their wedding day.

As we set off to the church in the limo, Vanessa and her girls got in the mood by seat dancing to their favorite tunes. Even her mom got in on the action.

On the arm of her father, Vanessa obviously wowed Sean in her strapless asymmetrical gown as she walked the isle to him. Sean sealed the deal on a wonderfully personal ceremony, with a long kiss, and beaming, walk up the long isle of St John Catholic Church with his new wife.

Famished, the couple fed each other chocolate chip cookies in the back of the limo. Good thing, because they needed every last one of those calories to keep them warm for what was coming next. In spite of the bitterly cold wind, Vanessa, Sean, and their bridal party ventured out for a quick photo session in Baker Park. Vanessa was determined to get some pretty outdoor photos. I’d say we were lucky because March in Frederick could have been snowing! S&V loved on each other tightly to stay warm and their photos reflect just how close their relationship is. Everyone was such a trooper. Sean’s best man really was “the man” – he carried Vanessa’s train and flowers while Sean snuggled her back to the warmth of the limo.

It was off to Ceresville for a delicious lunch, heart felt toasts and some wonderful Latin rhythms on the dance floor.
