Emily and Nigel’s wedding was a beautiful continuation of their love story, which began with their engagement session in Baltimore. Planned to perfection by Abby McKinney Events, their celebration seamlessly blended classic elegance with meaningful moments.

Their ceremony took place at the stunning Notre Dame Basilica, a venue as grand as their love. Emily walked down the aisle in a breathtaking gown paired with elegant Jimmy Choo heels, embodying a timeless sophistication. As she approached Nigel, the emotion in the room was palpable—a beautiful testament to the journey they’ve shared.

A touching surprise awaited Emily as she stepped outside the Basilica. Her family had secretly restored an old English convertible, a cherished heirloom brought back to life by her grandfather and thoughtfully arranged by her mother. This gateway car, adorned with florals by LB Floristry and gleaming with nostalgia and love, added a layer of sentimentality to their wedding portraits, perfectly capturing the essence of tradition and new beginnings.

The reception at Three Oaks was nothing short of spectacular. Greenery and cascading florals adorned every corner, seamlessly blending with the chandeliers and soft, ambient lighting. The effect was an organic yet upscale garden ambiance, striking a balance between classic charm and modern elegance. It was the perfect backdrop for the evening’s celebrations, filled with heartfelt toasts, laughter, and dancing.

From the emotional ceremony to the unforgettable reception, Emily and Nigel’s wedding was a beautiful reflection of their journey together. It was an honor to capture each moment, preserving their memories in a way that they can cherish for a lifetime.
