Where oh where do I begin with Lindsay and Jeff?! From their incredible taste, to their ooey gooey infectious love for one another, all the way to their bad ass, upbeat personalities, they are and will forever be favs of mine. As a month-of coordinator, you are not always looped into every step of the planning process.  Usually it is not until the day-of or post-wedding that I see things like the invitation suite. But with Lindsay and Jeff, just like one of their cherished guests, I too received the invitation to their wedding.  You should have seen the look on my face and felt the warmth in my heart when I opened the mailbox that day. WHAT SWEET CLIENTS I HAVE!! I will never forget their wedding date, it’s the best date in the world. My birthday, September 28th! I was exactly where I was supposed to be that day in 2019. 

Lindsay and Jeff are true city-goers, married on the perimeter of downtown Baltimore at The Assembly Room.   When you soak in The Assembly Room and what it has to offer, you are soaking in Lindsay and Jeff.  It has them written all over it!  This couple was very meticulous in all of their vendor selections, which makes me so happy and honored that they chose me to be part of the team too! Given their diligence, it was particularly hard when the venue manager and I noticed that one of their vendors was shaping up to be an ill fit just a few weeks before the big day.  It is not always easy, but totally part of my job as a coordinator to break this news to Lindsay and Jeff.  Naturally, this was tough news for them to hear and all of us had to work tirelessly and quickly to replace this vendor.   Over the years, I have dealt with tears at weddings in the past, but this time was different.  This time it was before the wedding and it was one of my clients and we all felt the hurt on that dreaded call.  But it made us stronger and better as a client-coordinator force!

Wedding planning as a process can sometimes be hard and unkind, but in the end, it always seems to end up perfect and beautiful. Lindsay and Jeff had an AMAZING, AMAZING day. The evidence is in the photos by Peyton Rainey Photography and incredible video footage shot by Wild Light Films.  Enjoy - and congrats again to Lindsay and Jeff!
