Marc & Caity

Marc & Caity | Kellys Ford, Virginia Wedding Photographer

The week when everything started to bloom, Marc and Caity’s wedding arrived. How appropriate for the start of the wedding season! 🙂 I’m praying that this wedding weather continues throughout the year for all of my brides. They were incredibly blessed by not only the atmosphere, but the celebration. What a happy and joyful day it was!!! Everything was laid back and exactly how Marc and Caity envisioned it to be … well, until the dancing began then the celebration really started! Going through their photos and witnessing their wedding day, it was so obvious how much they adore each other. I mean, I know Marc must have been shocked when he saw Caity walking down the aisle in her stunning gown! Definitely a jaw dropper. 🙂 They were both glowing and I hope that carries throughout their marriage. <3

Thank you Marc and Caity for an incredible time at your wedding! It was a joy watching you both commit your lives together in front of your closest family and friends. 🙂 I wish you both the best!!! CONGRATS! xoxo!
