Before I dive in, I’d like to mention that I had been looking forward Shannon and Cody’s dusty blue and green Bretton Woods Germantown wedding for quite some time. I finally got to meet them last week and we immediately felt like old friends. A great way to start the day!

The couple began their day getting ready at Gaithersburg Marriott Washingtonian. I loved the dusty blue and green color palette Shannon chose for her bridesmaids. Cody and his groomsmen looked sharp in a dark and light gray suits with vests. Shannon and Cody later met for a First Look at their ceremony and reception venue, Bretton Woods Recreation Center, in Germantown. Despite the midday heat, these moments were some of my favorites of the entire day!

Shannon and Cody’s ceremony what a particularly special part of the day. I liked the intimate setting they created around the trees outside. They even had a close friend of Cody’s officiate. I adore when close friends or family do this. The entire moment becomes that much more special!

What a tremendous honor it was to have been your photographer, Shannon and Cody! I hope you enjoy reliving a these special moments from your day, and I’m excited to deliver your final gallery in a few a weeks!
