4. Every bride dreams of a WOW moment, and whew… Demri certainly understood the assignment! She was perfection in her strapless gown with an intricate beaded pattern. Her sweetheart neckline was accentuated with a stunning necklace that had been worn by the women in Eugene’s family before her. It was the perfect “something old”. With its beaded edges, her cathedral veil tied the look together. We all know that Demri is beautiful, but I don’t think anyone was prepared for just how amazing she looked as a bride!
5. Speaking of not being prepared for Demri’s bridal look, I’m pretty sure she stunned Eugene! Their first look near the water was such an emotional moment. They exchanged sweet notes to each other beforehand, and it served as such a good reminder of why we’re all here in the first place – because two people fell in love. After their first look, all of the nervous jitters were gone, and they were ready to tie the knot + dance the night away!
6. After the first look, we grabbed some portraits on the dock, in the grove of trees, and basically, all over the grounds of the Kent Island Resort! This all-white coastal chic space is one of my favorite Maryland wedding venues so I’m always happy when the wedding party is excited to explore it, too.
