I hope you are ready for a dose of elegant and beautiful with today’s featured wedding in Washington DC. Zoe and Chris opted for an elegant Washington DC wedding ceremony at the beautiful Meridian House, where they celebrated both their vows and wedding reception. With the help of their wedding planner, A. Dominick Events, their wedding ceremony was lush in white and green formal florals with small rustic and organic touches. The bride donned a wrap around her lace wedding dress, fitting of the fall season in which they wed. The neutral wedding color palette blended perfectly with the pale pink and taupe bridesmaid dresses, which contrasted the dashing groom in his black tuxedo. Thanks to wedding photographer, Kathy Blanchard, the couple’s first look photos are fabulous! I love the joy on Zoe’s face when she sees Chris for the first time! Special thanks to DC-are wedding planner A. Dominick Events for sharing Zoe and Chris’ big day with us and stay tuned for their candlelit wedding reception up next!

From the bride: When we were looking for a wedding venue, we loved Meridian House the minute we saw it and knew it was the one! The outdoor space was perfect for pictures (and cocktail hour, if the weather cooperated!), and the inside of the building was so elegant and beautiful. It seemed perfect for the vibe we wanted to create on our wedding day.

We loved the harp music at the wedding ceremony because it was unique and so different.

Congratulations to Zoe and Chris! Thank you for sharing your elegant Washington DC wedding ceremony with us! Stay tuned, up next we’re showing you their candle-clad white and green wedding reception.
