Joanna & Chris at Decatur House

Decatur House_001

It is hard not to smile effusively when you are around Joanna and Chris.  They are two of the warmest and most gracious people I have ever met.  This was the first wedding where I received hugs from the couple, their parents and siblings before I left at the end of the night.  Talk about making me feel welcome!  I absolutely LOVED spending the day with these two, and my cheeks actually hurt from smiling so much when I got home that evening.  Joanna and Chris were married at the church where they met, National Presbyterian in Washington, DC, and their celebration took place at the gorgeous Decatur House at Lafayette Square.  It was a perfect day, and these two are perfect for one another.  Congratulations to a truly remarkable couple!
