Melissa and Howell were so much fun. We took photos of just the two of them around the city and had a blast. It was nice that it was just the two of them because we ended up going in a cab. I love that!
Here is her awesome dress hanging in the window when I arrived!

Her earrings…

A quick brushing!

And she was ready for makeup with the amazing Morgan Blaul.

Howell was in the same hotel getting ready…

Love this one!

And we were off to meet Howell for photos…


A gift for the bride…

The grooves in the road can make it tricky to walk on in heels! Melissa was a trooper!!!


The bouquet matched the bridge!





The bride jumps off for more photos!





I love this wall. LOVE it.

And we headed downtown for more pictures…


She put on her wrap for more pics!





And then we arrived at the very cool, Cafe Brauer.

The Ketubah signing started as soon as we arrived…

Melissa’s father…

Her mother…

Their friend flew in for the ceremony…

And a kiss before the ceremony!

I love this one of Melissa and her father…

The guests wait anxiously for the ceremony…

And…here we go!

LOVE this shot that Dawn got from the balcony!!! Check out Dawn’s site HERE!

Howell spots Melissa…

Everyone was crying…

The homemade chuppah looked very cool….

They had friends read at the ceremony…


Howell’s dad…

Melissa’s parents…

I love the expression on his face!

And they kissed…

The cocktails commence!

She was taking pictures with her super sweet disposable camera. Hey, nothing wrong with that! =)


Um, she looks like she is going to A. Break my camera or B. Break my face?

Brauer at night…

Lollipop place cards!

I love when people get photo booths!

The flowers…

I also love when people do succulents!

More details…


Ugly doll cake toppers!!! SO cool.

The first dance…

Her father thanks everyone for coming…

And then the bride does the same…

The cake!

Melissa dances with her father…

And then the party continues!



Uh oh!



One reason I want to be Jewish = The Hora! =)~

Ha!

Her father LOVES the camera. I love this shot of the bride and her father!!

Melissa and Howell live in D.C. Her and her D.C. girls are representin’.

They gave out little bottles of Jack Daniels for people to take home at the end of the night. I couldn’t resist using the cap for a ring shot!

Thanks for being so much fun!!!
