Baltimore Museum of Industry Wedding by Kirsten Smith Photography

Oh do we ever have a treat for you today! Today’s amazing real wedding is 1940’s do-wop chic and we can’t get enough of each an every detail. Drive-in table cards, write-on record guest book, live swing bands, and our favorite: the bridesmaids carrying their bouquets in vintage coca-cola bottles. The Baltimore Museum of Industry provided the perfect venue and it was all captured by Kirsten Smith Photography. Enjoy!

Antrim 1844 Wedding by Jonathan Hanson Weddings

The old-country feel of the Antrim 1844 Country House & Hotel provides the perfect backdrop for today’s classically beautiful Antrim 1844 wedding!

From the photographer, Jonathan Hanson: “The bride & groom were drawn to both the beautiful location and the cuisine at Antrim 1844. The venue provided them with an ideal location for everyone to prepare for the wedding in one spot by utilizing the various guest cottages. The gardens provided them with a wonderful backdrop for the photography, and was something that they wanted to incorporate into the wedding itself. The sprawling countryside provided a breathtaking view during the sunset!”

Southern Inspired Golf Club Wedding by Dana Cubbage Weddings

We can’t get enough of the beautiful colors today’s real wedding! Bright blues and greens paired with the soft pinks create a gorgeous theme for this southern-inspired affair by Dana Cubbage Weddings.

From photographer, Dana: “The bride wanted her day to feel as Southern as possible, and with the help of her florist + DIY details, I think she did a fantastic job! Her beautiful lace dress was the perfect inspiration piece for her Southern-inspired wedding, and the bridesmaids wore beautiful striped dresses that felt preppy + Southern chic all at the same time. The bride’s DIY decor included a monogramed mailbox for cards, rustic wooden boxes on each table to hold the beautiful floral arrangements, chalkboard table numbers and cute bunting on their sweetheart table. The day was filled with love + laughter as the couple said “I Do” at Salem Lutheran Church, where the bride’s grandfather was a founding member. That made the ceremony extra special!”
