Married!

Hosea and Sarah’s Ceresville Mansion wedding took place the morning of August 5th in Frederick, MD.  The day was hot, but filled with so much love and emotion from everyone who had gathered there to celebrate the couple.  Sarah did her own make-up, which was quite impressive!  She also did her second hair style herself and changed into a second dress after all the formalities were done during the reception.  I love that I got to see two different looks from Sarah on her wedding day.  My favorite part of the day is when we were doing portraits and Sarah squealed and said, “I’m married!  I just wanted to be married!”  It was ridiculously  cute and everything else that didn’t exactly go as planned that day just drifted away and her and Hosea were just there enjoying their wedding day together.  Hope you guys can re-live the day a bit through the pictures!!
Moments before the ceremony started…
One of the best “first time I see my future wife” faces I’ve ever seen!Ceresville’s ceremony site is just gorgeous!!
Definitely a first…not letting the audience see them kiss, ha!  I love it!Jumping the broom!!So after the family formals, we just had a couple of minutes to take pictures of Hosea and Sarah.  And when I say a couple of minutes, I literally looked at my time stamp and I did these portraits in 3 minutes!  You heard it right…we took the following portraits of Hosea and Sarah in only 3 minutes!  I mixed in the bridal party pictures which we took later (notice how Sarah’s hair and dress is changed)….I like 30 minutes of time for bride and groom portraits but sometimes you just don’t get that.  We do what we can do when we only have a short amount of time.  The room at Ceresville is always very pretty with a ton of natural light.  I love the simple centerpieces done by Ory’s Florals.  The cake done by Charm City Cakes was pretty amazing!At the end of the wedding, we took about 5 more minutes to grab a couple more pics and I’m so glad that we did especially since Sarah had changed her dress and hair.  Love it and love how incredibly happy these two are to be married!
Congrats Sarah and Hosea!!  So happy you included me in your special day!
