Besides having the best dance party of the year, Leigh and Carey knew that they wanted their Chesapeake Bay Beach Club wedding to be a combination of simple, casually elegant, personal, modern, and fun experience for their guests. The bride had visions of beachy pastels coming to life on the Chesapeake Bay alongside a few subtle bay-themed elements. We love the personalized cocktail napkins with their first dance lyrics, the head table with laser-cut wooden place card names, and the incredible seating wall created by Edge Floral Designers. This is one you won’t want to miss! It featured names of all the places that they have traveled to together and was so personal. In addition, serious floral dreams became reality with their light pink, peach, butter, and dusty miller arrangements!

Leigh and Carey’s love story began when they started dating after a chance meeting at their neighborhood watering hole, Bourbon in Glover Park. Not exchanging numbers the night of their meeting didn’t stop these two, as a mutual friend ensured they’d connect later. Fast forward 4 years and that same friend acted as their Jewish Ketubah signing witness on their wedding day. We love when things come full circle like that to create a beautiful moment. Thank you to Bonnie Sen Photography for sharing this whimsical Chesapeake Bay Beach Club wedding with us today!
