Christine + Tim // The Stables, Georgetown

Christine + Tim were married on a warm August evening at The Stables in Georgetown. The mix of funky eclectic decor and a well curated playlist from The Talking Heads to Aretha Franklin made for a completely charming day. They included friends in their ceremony by having one play acoustic guitar versions of Iron and Wine's "Trapeze Swinger" when Tim walked down the aisle with his parents, and "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" for Christine, her mom and step-dad. When two friends sang a song mid-ceremony Christine and her bridesmaids couldn't hold back their tears. During toasts Tim's best man and long time friend shared a photo from when they were 7 or 8 years old on a ferry boat that they've recreated over the years- the pair made sure that grabbed a new version during bridal party portraits.

One memory that sticks out to me was the way that Tim kept quietly smiling at Christine throughout the day - there was no sign of stress, no hardships or rushing around, just assurance and pure satisfaction that they were moving into the next stage of their life together.
