August 19, 2015 Lindsay + Finbar | The Belvedere Wedding | Baltimore, Maryland
Lindsay and Finbar’s wedding this past Saturday was so incredibly beautiful. A gorgeous couple, a stunning church, lovely reception space. But it was more than just that. There were beautiful moments all day between Lindsay and Fin, their families, and friends. I got teary watching their first dance because they just looked so over the moon happy to be married, and that’s how it should be.
I absolutely love the story of the day that they met! It’s so good that their priest even shared it during the ceremony. Lindsay and Fin met in Dewey Beach in 2010. Lindsay was in Ocean City with a friend, and reluctantly went along to Dewey Beach. She didn’t want to go to some place with people she didn’t know, and would rather have just stayed in Ocean City. (I can so totally relate to this). But she decided to be a good friend, and she went anyway. When they were on their way, she saw a shooting star. A sign, perhaps? That night, she met Finbar and they hit it off right away. When it was time to go back to Ocean City, she didn’t want to leave. Later that week they went on their first date back home in Baltimore, and the rest is history. I love it when a chance meeting turns into a lifelong love.
Lindsay and Fin, I’ve loved getting to know you both and loved being by your side to capture your special day. I hope you have a blast in Italy and I can’t wait to hear all about it when you get back!
