Susie and Tyler got ready in rooms at the Holiday Inn at BWI. I knew I was in the right spot as I heard Susie’s laughter radiating from her suite. I found the girls wearing matching robes, adorable socks, and the bride with her hair pinned to hold curl. The boy’s were already getting into their suits, and Tyler was anxious to see his soon-to-be wife. After a short commute to Celebrations at the Bay, we set up a First Look for the two. We knocked out the majority of portraits before the ceremony, knocking most of the nerves out of the way in the process!
The weather for this October wedding was overcast. The dusty blue skies complimented Tyler and Susie’s navy and orange color scheme. Beautiful florals graced the arch under which they were wed. Guests surrounded them in classic white chairs. It was a sweet ceremony that ended in ALL smiles.
There was no time wasted in getting to the celebrations. Dinner was served, toasts were given, and the dance floor opened. Susie and Tyler were surrounded by loved ones on and off the dance floor, in their photo booth, at the outside bar, and sharing private moments watching the moon hang over the bay. Everyone truly danced the night away until it was time to board the party bus and head back to the hotel for more fun!

It was a gorgeous event and your photos are absolutely amazing. We are one set of Tyler’s grandparents ( I was in a long dark purple gown). I’m so anxious to see the grandparents photos with the bride and groom. Could you possibly email them to me? I would love that. Thanks so much, Beth Baker
