Real Wedding by A. Dominick Events

Devon Pearce — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 18:47:52 +0000

It’s Monday and, in an attempt to get back on our regular schedule, Monday means real wedding. And boy, do I have a jaw-dropping real wedding to share with you.

Emily and Charlie were married on September 19, 2009 at the Meridian House. To pull together an event that was both flawless and filled with style, Emily and Charlie turned to the oh-so-talented Aimee Dominick of A. Dominick Events (a District Favorite!).

I asked Aimee about this fabulous affair and here’s what she had to say…

This wedding at the Meridian House was my favorite look so far this year. I just loved the mix of the contemporary clean decor against the grand, historic setting. I’m fairly certain it was the first time anyone used a disco ball at the venue. It was also really fun to work with the bride’s palette of white, black and hot pink- so fun and unexpected!

Photographer extraordinaire Jeff Greenough captured these beautiful photos and was kind enough to send them our way. I usually select a handful of photos for our real wedding features, but there were so many amazing shots, I just couldn’t narrow it down. Without further ado…

The girls got ready at the fabulous Hay-Adams Hotel… Such a luxurious, beautiful location to prep for the big day!

Look at this phenomenal transformation. Aimee and her team clearly know how to execute a picture-perfect vision.

I am loving everything about this wedding… the white, black, pink…the mix of modern and traditional…Emily’s pink shoes and not one, but two gorgeous dresses…

A huge thanks to Jeff Greenough and A. Dominick Events for sharing this gorgeous wedding with us. Congrats Charlie and Emily — you definitely threw a show-stopping party!

D.C. Destination: A Wedding in Charlottesville IV

Devon Pearce — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 01:26:44 +0000

As I said this morning, I LOVE Charlottesville weddings… Just a short drive from my favorite city (D.C.), Charlottesville provides an unbelievable backdrop for a wedding day. Being from a small town on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, I love Charlottesville for the same reasons I love my hometown — the charm and the people. In fact, I lived in Charlottesville for five years before moving to D.C.

While I’ll always adore chic city weddings that take place in the heart of the District, I have a special place in my heart for weddings in Charlottesville.

That’s why I decided to start planning my own there.

Yes, that’s right! I’m engaged. I’ve been dying to tell you all, but with so many wonderful things happening in the D.C. wedding world, there was just too much else to talk about!

I’ll keep you updated on my own wedding finds, especially what I’m learning as a bride-to-be — seeing things from a perspective different than that as a wedding planner or a wedding blogger.

Our wedding is scheduled for September — less than 7 months away, I know! So if I am posting late at night, or sometimes into the following day, you’ll know why — things are pretty crazy!

Tomorrow we’ll kick off another exciting planning journey…a Green Wedding being planned by the D.C. Couture Wedding Consortium! Stay tuned!

D.C. Destination: A Wedding in Charlottesville

Devon Pearce — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 15:51:30 +0000

Oh, how I love Charlottesville, Virginia. This incredibly charming, unbelievably beautiful city is located just two hours south of D.C. Though it is certainly within driving distance, if you are planning a wedding in a more rural spot like Charlottesville, it tends to become more of a “D.C. Destination” wedding, as everyone — even your local D.C. guests — is coming in from out of town.

Liz and Brian were married last October at Barboursville Vineyard. I could go on and on about how beautiful Barboursville is, but just wait til you see the pictures . Wedding Planner extraordinaire Aimee Dominick, of A.Dominick Events, created a wedding day that embraced the coziness of fall, the subtle elegance of a vineyard, and the magic of Charlottesville. Photographer Jeff Greenough did an exceptional job capturing this unbelievably gorgeous wedding… Oh, how I LOVE Charlottesville weddings!
