Patti and Gavin are the kind of couple whose warmth and love are instantly felt by everyone around them. From the moment you start a conversation with them, you’re struck by their genuine, kind-hearted nature. Their St. Ann’s Catholic Church and The Fairmont wedding day was a beautiful reflection of this warmth, filled with meaningful details and surrounded by family and friends.
Gavin proposed to Patti at the National Shrine Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes in Emmitsburg, MD. Their wedding ceremony, held at St. Ann’s Catholic Church, was just as beautiful. In the presence of their family and friends, Patti and Gavin’s Catholic ceremony was complete with love, grace, and faith, setting the perfect tone for the rest of their celebration.
After the ceremony, everyone headed to The Colonnade at The Fairmont for a beautiful reception. For their wedding decor, Patti and Gavin opted for a palette of soft, late-summer pastels that perfectly complemented the season. Surrounded by their closest family and friends, Patti and Gavin danced the night away, celebrating a day that was so perfectly “them.”
One of the sweetest and most unique details was their guestbook. Instead of a traditional book, Patti and Gavin chose vintage DC postcards for their guests to sign. It was such a fun nod to the city they love and gave their friends and family a creative way to leave well wishes. This personal touch fit seamlessly into their celebration, highlighting their connection to DC in a memorable way.
Planning their wedding was such an honor, and watching it all come together was incredibly rewarding.
