Dumbarton House Garden Wedding

Wedding Portraits in DC, Romantic Spring Wedding at Dumbarton House Gardens, Sarah Bradshaw Photography

Will and Kate’s Romantic Spring Wedding at Dumbarton House Gardens this past May was an intimate afternoon celebration that turned into an enchanting soirée.  The couple gathered 85 of their nearest and dearest to join in celebrating their love. Kate honored her late father’s memory with a locket featuring his picture into her Wild Green Yonder bouquet. Kate’s mother gave her away in their intimate garden ceremony where her father’s best friend officiated.

The celebration continued at cocktail hour with a fresh seafood bar from Spilled Milk Catering. The bridal party donned various shades of grey and navy that complimented the soft pinks of the reception perfectly. As guests mingled and signed the guest book, the couple’s cheeky hashtag, “#nottheroyalwillandkate” was a crowd fave! The newlyweds joined their friends under a draped tent straight out of a fairytale for dinner and toasts. Afterwards, the party moved inside for a dessert bar and dancing to the sounds of Bachelor Boys Band. The couple made their exit under a shower of sparklers as their loved ones wished them well. 

Thank you to the incredible vendor team who made this day possible:
