Ashley & Stephen had their Maryland Yacht Club wedding in Pasadena overlooking Rock Creek last weekend. It may have been one of our hottest weddings this year, but the skies were clear and made for an INCREDIBLE sunset! The Maryland Yacht club was the perfect spot for their wedding especially having such a deep rooted story in Maryland for these two. The view of Rock Creek and the Patapsco River had cruise ships, fishing boats, and sailboats cruising by all day in the back of their photos. Aubrey with Simply Created Events had the entire day timed out so perfectly with us and even helped the cute ring bearer’s make it down the aisle (Reason #157 to hire a coordinator for your wedding day!) The best part of the day that tied into the couple’s gifts, ceremony, & speeches was how they met. Back in 2002 Ashley & Stephen met through a mutual friend at a baseball field. They ended up dating for a few years in high school. Living an hour apart at that time made it difficult at that age but they had a shared connection and love of sports. They went separate ways in 2004 right before they each headed off to different colleges. After 8 years of no contact, in 2012 Stephen reconnected through Facebook and after a few months of talking, decided to meet up in person. In April 2012, they went on their (second) first date. “I think we both knew then that we had a special connection and wanted to spend more time together. We felt the same spark we had back in high school and we knew not to let it go this time.” – Ashley
After their first meeting 15 years ago, these two met down the aisle to start their new journey as husband and wife. It was so sweet to capture two people still so connected and in tune after all these years. Enjoy your honeymoon in St. Lucia!!
