Wait until you see the gorgeous emotion of this Chesapeake Bay Beach Club Wedding! Brittanie and Bill went the distance (literally!) to be together, and their beautiful day captures their excitement to finally be husband and wife.
Their Story
Brittanie and Bill’s story began their junior year at York College in 2009. They were close friends at first, but then Bill asked Brittanie on their first date and it became something more! After graduating in 2011, they worked together to continue their relationship while living in two different states. Lots of long phone calls (sometimes ending with one of them falling asleep!) and visits kept them together while they were apart. After many, many months of going the distance, they decided it was time to close the gap and move in! Their first little apartment in Cockeysville, Maryland was filled with lots of fun and exciting memories that they truly cherish.
In July of 2014, Bill proposed to Brittanie after she arrived home from a long night at work. When she walked in the door, Bill was down on one knee with candles lit throughout the apartment. He asked her to marry him, and obviously she said, yes! (Well, according to Brittanie, first she said, “Stop… what are you doing… wait! stop….whats happening?!?!” but then she said, yes!) Because becoming engaged just wasn’t exciting enough, Brittanie and Bill bought their first house together a few months later. And we can’t forget Jackson, their adorable fur baby, who joined the family a few months after that!
The Wedding
Brittanie and Bill had a fantastic celebration planned for their Chesapeake Bay Beach Club wedding. There was so much joy and so many fun moments, but the highlight was undoubtedly Brittanie’s awesome facial expressions. They’re seriously the best and added another dimension to capturing the emotion of the day. Did I mention these guys are obsessed with their dog? Jackson stole the show and made an appearance as a Fathead! And to top it all off, we got lucky and had another epic sunset as the party was heating up. Brittanie and Bill, I’m thrilled I got to be part of your big day. Here are some of my favorites.
