October 11, 2018 Allie + Jon | 1840s Plaza City Lights Ballroom Wedding | Baltimore, MD

Allie and Jon’s wedding this past Sunday was a day filled with beautiful moments and a high energy party!

The Couple

On their wedding website, Jon and Allie shared their own versions of the story of how they met/their first date. I loved Jon’s so much. It feels so much like Jon – honest and sweet.
From Jon’s Perspective:   “We first met as Allie stepped off the train, ready for a fun filled date day. I took her to my favorite local place to eat, Bigelow’s Fried Clams. We had some of the best Clam Chowder in the world and talked about her schooling.  After that I took her home to watch tv and play video games. We had a spirited round of Mario Kart 64 which I lost brutally as Bowser. I gave her a kiss goodnight and she was on her way home from what was surely a great time. It turns out if I had known Allie, I wouldn’t have worn a shirt with a funny video game slogan on it. She stepped off the train, took one look at me in what I thought was my best shirt, and considered turning around and getting back onto the train. Turns out she’s not a big fried strip clams girl either, she just said she’d be happy to go to be nice. She also wasn’t thrilled about just going to some guy’s house to play video games. It turns out what saved the date was how relaxed and happy being around me made her feel during a stressful time in her life, and losing in Mario Kart. She loves being competitive, and winning was one of the highlights of her night. I may have lost the race, but I won her heart.” So sweet!

The Wedding

Allie and Jon were married this past Sunday at 1840s Plaza on an unseasonably warm day. Although we all needed quite a few air conditioning breaks, it ended up being the perfect day. Allie and Jon’s friends and family were so warm and it was such a joy being in the company of such amazing people all day. I loved the details at the reception space, that felt straight out of a Disney movie. Their cake was one of the most beautiful cakes I’ve ever seen, and from what I hear, tasted even better! Everything came together perfectly to celebrate an amazing couple. Here are just a few of my favorites.
