Casual elegant Maryland wedding: Chelsea + Mike

January 11, 2012

A historic secluded mansion like the Brittland Manor in Maryland is one of many gorgeous venues you can choose when planning your wedding. If it’s available on your date, book it – it’s stunning! Chelsea + Mike made it theirs for the weekend, filling it with neutral colors, burlap, calico patterns, and beautiful flowers. She wanted a venue with a beautiful brick building and gardens, he wanted to get married on the water. How often does it happen that you find the entire package? Not often, but as you’ll see, C + M’s wedding was classic, elegant, and closed out with a wild dance party. We’re more than excited to share this wedding, not only because it’s beautifully shot by Justine Ungaro, but also because the cinematography at the end, filmed by the groom’s company, Monachetti, left us in tears!

Music: Chelsea walked down the aisle to “Your Hand in Mine” by Explosions in the Sky, together they exited to “Young London” by Angels and Airwaves, and danced “Reasons to Love You” by Mieko.

Why have a bar when you can fill up a cute dinghy with tasty beverages – love this idea!

Large paper lantern lighting in the center of a tent is the perfect way to make it warm and cozy for your guests.
