Kristin + Ian : Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Baltimore Winter Wedding

Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-37Happy New Years Eve everyone!!
Before we start the new year, how about a little more Christmas wedding inspiration?!  Kristin and Ian’s Royal Sonesta Harbor Court wedding from earlier this month was the perfect combo of fun and classy…kind of like Kristin and Ian themselves.  Ian is high-energy always thinking positive, which rubs off on Kristin and helps her find the fun in everything.  Kristin is the more calm and laid-back “let’s bring it down to Earth” half of the relationship, which helps keep Ian focused and grounded.  I love being able to see traits like that in the couples I work with despite only being around them for a limited amount of time.
Their gorgeous wedding was full of Christmas inspiration.  From the amazing red of the bridesmaids dresses, to the red berries and silver accents in Kristin’s bouquet, the cute Christmas ornaments that served as both place cards and favors, to the beautifully lit wreaths that adorned the windows of their reception space…..it reminded me of how much I love winter weddings.  I seem to always forget that every year and then winter rolls around and I fall in love all over again.  Weddings where the bride wears a fur and we’re not sweating our butts off doing photos outside (even though this particular day was one of the rare December days that was actually cold…it’s a trade-off) is a winner in my book.
Kristin and Ian, I have had so much fun hanging out with you guys……..from when we first met to your super windy engagement session and then your gorgeous wedding day…….thank you for honor and privilege of going through those adventures with you!! Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-1Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-2Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-3Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-4Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-6Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-9Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-10Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-11Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-13Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-15Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-19Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-20Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-22Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-23Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-25Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-28Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-31Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-32Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-34Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-37Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-39Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-41Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-42Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-44Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-45Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-47Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-50Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-48Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-52Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-53Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-54Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-55Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-56Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-57Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-58Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-59Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-62Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-64Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-65Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-66Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-67Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-68Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-69Don’t judge me on how this photo is not the best technically, but when you come across a car with a shout out to perhaps the best Christmas movie ever, you do what you gotta do.  Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-71Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-73Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-74Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-76Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-79Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-81Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-83Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-87Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-88Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-89Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-90Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-91Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-85Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-93Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-96Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-97Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-100Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-103Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-104Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-106Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-115Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-119Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-125Ian was surprised with the softball championship trophy.  I love surprises at receptions  🙂Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-128Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-109Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Wedding Kristin Ian-110The professionals that made this day possible:
