We’re big fans of Melissa Manzione Photography and when she submitted this gorgeous wedding we nearly jumped with joy! It’s nautical & elegant, simply perfect for Bayside Bride!
From the Bride: Our wedding day was unforgettable. We were very fortunate to discover beautiful Herrington on the Bay on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay. Herrington’s gorgeous landscaping and expansive view of the bay was the perfect setting that bridged together my upbrinding in tropical south Florida with my husband’s Maryland heritage. We were both very excited to get married outdoors, overlooking the bay, and convinced ourselves for a year that it wouldn’t rain. About an hour before our evening ceremony, soft gray clouds turned dark and we began to hear the clap of distant thunder. Our amazing wedding coordinator (and family and friends) stayed calm and got the ceremony going a few minutes early. Despite the omnious skies, we made it through the entire beautiful ceremony without a drop of rain. The rain and swirling winds waited until we were safely under the nearby tent. We had an amazing rest of the evening dancing, eating, and celebrating with our friends and family. We can’t wait to return to Herrington for our anniversary.
