Congratulations to Amanda & Bryan who became Mr. & Mrs. Karnezis yesterday at Celebrations at the Bay in Pasadena, MD. A beautiful day to be near the Chesapeake Bay was perfect for an outdoor ceremony as well. Amanda & Bryan were married by Natalie Tyler of Weddings Quick and Sweet, one of our favorite officiants before enjoying a cocktail hour with great food, drinks and live music. We introduced the bride & groom into the Chesapeake Ballroom to “I Don’t Want To Live On Mars” by Ziggy Marley and then toasts and an incredible meal provided by Catering by Uptown followed. Parents dances took place as dinner was wrapping up and then the newlyweds danced for their first time as Mr. & Mrs. to Bill Withers and Grover Washington’s “Just The Two Of Us”. Throughout the evening guests enjoyed drinks, a cool breeze on the outdoor deck and tunes by artists like Daft Punk, Salt-n-Peppa, EU, Paul McCartney & Wings, The Killers, Tone Loc and more. Per Amanda & Bryan’s request we avoided most of the usual traditions aside from a cake cutting and instead turned the evening into one giant celebration/dance party. The last song of the night was Andrew Gold’s “Thank You For Being A Friend” and it brought everyone out for a big group hug on the dance floor. Every part of Amanda & Bryan’s big day was smooth, stress free and very, very fun! Thanks to the guys from Artistic Difference Photography and Videography for working with us and of course to our new friends, Mr. & Mrs. Karnezis!
