Maria & Jeff were married on a beautiful December day in Washington, DC. They love Christmas, so it was perfect for them to have a light Christmas-themed wedding. What made it even more perfect was all of the Christmas decor that the ANC puts up all around the venue.
They chose to feature many things special to them, like their dogs on their signature cocktail sign, the DC skyline on their koozie favors, and dog cocktail napkins. M&J had been engaged for 3 years within the month, so it was even more special for them to see their friends and family come to support their long-awaited wedding.
After their first look, they walked over to Lafayette Square in front of the White House for their wedding party portraits. Check out some of the beauty from their special day!
