I am SO excited about sharing Bethany and Tyler’s Chesapeake Bay Beach Club Wedding! Not only is CBBC are one of my favorite wedding venues, but their waterfront vibes also bring me back a little bit to the warm beaches I miss so dearly in Brazil. If you’re looking to have a Chesapeake Bay Beach Club Wedding, they have open house tours on the weekends.
I met Bethany and Tyler at their amazing Engagement Session at Patapsco Valley State Park, full of glowing sunlight and a champagne pop by the river. I mean, champagne anything, you know I am in!
From their wedding website – “Tyler and Bethany met back in 2017 while working together at Target. Tyler was actually the first person Bethany met on her first store tour. They became great friends before they realized that there was much more in store for them years later. Tyler popped the question while on vacation in Charleston, and the planning began!”
For you: WHAT’S A FIRST LOOK AND SHOULD YOU HAVE ONE?
I know I am like, totally biased but their wedding day was ahhh-mazing! The weather was perfect, sandwiched between two cold and dreary days. We had the best team of vendors and everything went amazingly well! From their florals to Bethany’s showstopper dress, and the special butterflies to celebrate loved ones no longer with us, the vibe of their whole day was just precious and captivating and my favorite part was when they said their “I dos”.
As I waited at the front, next to Tyler, I could feel how antsy he was to see his gorgeous bride already! Even though I had already seen her, even I was excited for them to see each other and once that happened, it was hard for them to keep it together. Between the joyful tears and the excitement to marry your best friend, there I am, wondering how did I get so lucky to be there.
From the ladybug that visited Bethany during her bridal portraits to their adorable ring bearer and flower girl, (who were asking for photos until they left!) to their enthusiastic wedding party, their sweet family, and of course, the happy couple who trusted my every decision and were always READY for whatever I asked of them, a BIG THANK YOU!
Memorable wedding days don’t just happen, they are planned, then flawlessly executed. When creating a custom timeline for Bethany and Tyler, we reserved 30 minutes for sunset portraits and every minute was worth it tenfold, see yourself below!
Another amazing wedding in the books and boy was this one for the books! Thank you, Bethany and Tyler (& family) for trusting me to capture your beautiful special day along with such a superb vendor team. I hope you all had a blast and enjoy reliving some parts of the day through my eyes. Love y’all!
