Today I’m excited to share part one of Tracy and Bharath‘s two part wedding celebration this past weekend! Day one was their full day American wedding at the Frederick Douglass-Isaac Myers Maritime Museum in Baltimore.
The Couple
Tracy and Bharath are so sweet and so special and it was such an honor celebrating their new beginning by their sides! Here’s their story from the bride:
“After completing her residency training in Philadelphia, Tracy moved to Baltimore to begin her career as a transplant pharmacist close to 5 years ago. About 1 month after she started, Bharath, fresh out of his residency program in San Diego, started in the same position at the University of Maryland. As they had similar experiences up until that point and were starting their first “real” jobs, the two quickly became good friends. One unsuspecting day, Tracy received a phone call from Bharath. He said he needed to get something off of his chest, and promptly asked her out (to her disbelief)! They continued to hang out as “just friends,” but over time (and several bottles of wine and hours long discussions) their relationship became something more. Fast forward several years, and one Friday after a long week at work, Tracy was prepared to get comfortable on the couch. Suddenly, Bharath told her that she had 10 minutes to get ready for a special evening that he had planned. He then pulled out a pretty dress that Tracy had noticed at the mall months before for her to wear. From there, Bharath took Tracy to Fells Point, where he had arranged for a private boat tour of the harbor and surrounding areas. Before she knew it, Bharath was down on one knee, asking her to marry him! Of course she said yes!”
The Wedding
Everything about Tracy and Bharath’s wedding just felt. good. Their families are so sweet and loving. Their friends, warm and enthusiastic. And their love for each other is inspiring and comfortable. They love being together and they bring the best out in each other. It’s a wonderful thing to witness and to be a part of. We were hit with on and off rain storms all day on Saturday but it ended up working out perfectly. It cleared up just as Tracy walked down the aisle, we were met with a little drizzle mid-ceremony, but it stopped again a few minutes later! I love that they took the risk to do the ceremony outside anyway because it was absolutely beautiful. Here are just a few of my favorites from their special day!
