An Classic and Intimate Parque Ridley Creek Wedding

Gretchen and Christopher’s intimate Parque Ridley Creek wedding was held on a beautiful October day.  Their wedding was classic and elegant, and the Hunting Hill Mansion in Ridley Creek park provided such a stunning backdrop with its historical architecture, formal gardens, and woodlands.  Their wedding was a dream to photograph!

Some of my favorite moments were when Gretchen slipped on the shoes that were her grandmother’s and when her mother helped with the veil that she lovingly made for her daughter.  Gretchen is such a classic beauty.  Some of my favorite photos are of her getting ready in the bridal suite.  I loved exploring the grounds of Parque during their first look and portraits!  They told me they loved that their wedding location was somewhat isolated and juxtaposed with nature and historical architecture.  Gretchen and Chris also had a stunning outdoor ceremony with the sweetest flower girls!  Their reception was perfectly elegant with tapered candles adorning the long tables so tastefully decorated by Bloomsbury Floral Design.  The whole day felt like a dream and I was honored to capture it for them.    I can’t wait for you to see some of my favorites from Gretchen and Chris’ day!
