Waterfront Rustic Wedding with the Right Mix of Classic & Fun!

You are in for such a treat! Katie & Zach’s wedding was one of a kind and filled with love, fun and personal details galore! It was a lovely Annapolis private home waterfront wedding overlooking the picturesque Severn River creating the perfect backdrop for Katie & Zach to say “I do”! With a warm, rustic feel with a fun classic twist, this wedding was one we are in love with!

The couple said “I do” under a gorgeous oak tree on the family property overlooking the scenic Severn River. Katie looked stunning in her lace detailed gown as she officially joined the family. The Groom’s party had fun arriving in classic cars down the narrow, forested road and it made for such a romantic feel!

After a stunning ceremony, it was time to party! Katie & Zach wanted a laid back, comfortable yet elegant feel and for all their guests to enjoy good food, good tunes, and a great time! I hope you’ll agree they accomplished that in spades! With food trucks for cocktail hour and a main menu featuring a slider bar with chicken, beef, and crab cakes PLUS a mac and cheese bar, guests were in for a down home Annapolis Style menu that would please every bit of their stomachs and heart and souls!

The night ended with a fun dessert bar with cupcakes, Whoppi Pies (yes you read that correctly — eat your heart out!) and so much fun and dancing. Katie & Zach’s laid back yet elegant event will be one that everyone will remember for a lifetime! Thank you Katie & Zach for letting Wedding Savvy be a part of your big day and positive memories! You guys are the cutest!

Natalie and Sam's Boho Backyard Wedding

Natalie and Sam bought a house on the water in Annapolis with the vision of hosting their wedding reception there. With lots of love and thoughtfulness, thier day came together just the way they envisioned and created a lifelong memory! Hats off to Victoria Selman for capturing these amazing images of Sam & Natalie’s magical May wedding!

The ceremony was performed in a clearing on the property that had the feeling of an enchanted forest. The couple created a wire web to hang drapes to cover the area as well as a wooden aisle to lay carpet over for the most unique and special feeling in the forest! Guests were absolutely in love with the magical feel of the space and we completely agree :)

Natalie and Sam had a family friend provide the family style catering and Natalie & Bridesmaids personally arranged the flowers for the centerpieces in the vintage containers Natalie had been collecting. So much thought and personalization went into this wedding that made it meaningful and special to both the couple and their guests! We would be remiss to not mention the amazing DJ skills of Pedro from Mixing Maryland that kept EVERYONE on the dance floor all night long — it was hard to keep our coordinators’s toes from not tapping!
