Patty + Antonio | Alexandria Wedding Photographer

Antonio and Patty are married!!!

It was a gorgeous day for a wonderful couple to tie the knot!! Patty and Antonio’s wedding was a magical day!

I met the girls at Patty and Antonio’s home in Alexandria, Virginia. The girls were getting ready and everyone was so excited for the special day! Patty was surrounded by her three sisters as she got prepped for her wedding. I just love the bond these sisters have. It is especially beautiful because they all live in different states. Patty told me they get together every week for a zoom family gathering!

Antonio and the guys got ready off site and met up with us at Cedar Knoll before the ceremony for the finishing details and some portraits. They were ready for a great day too! Antonio looked so sharp in his suit!

The ceremony and reception were both held at Cedar Knoll in Mount Vernon, Virginia. It was beautifully lit and the guests enjoyed watching Antonio and Patty share their vows. My favorite part of the ceremony was when Patty and Antonio placed leis on one another. Patty is Hawaiian and this symbolizes love and commitment. How beautiful is that??!!!

At the end of the ceremony a Mariachi band played as they exited! The guests enjoyed going right into dancing from the ceremony on their way to cocktail hour!

We stepped over to the Potomac river which was just across the street from Cedar Knoll for the wedding portraits. This property was just amazing. Next door to Cedar Knoll is George Washington’s Mount Vernon Estate! We had time to enjoy some beautiful scenery and capture some amazing images!

Once we got back to Cedar Knoll the party was on! The reception was held inside and there was amazing food, lots of dancing, drinks, and great desserts! The cookie table was created by guests that shared their favorite cookies for everyone to share! This was an absolutely perfect day for and absolutely perfect pair!
