Yesterday at the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore, Ann and Shawn got married and now they’re Mr. & Mrs. Massie! Their ceremony took place at the Zoo’s Lakeside Pavilion led by Reverend Parker Sutton and was short, sweet and rain free! Folks made their way to the Zoo’s Mansion House following the ceremony for cocktails and appetizers and the Zoo’s animal ambassadors were there to greet them. Ann & Shawn mingled with guests before DJ Frank officially introduced them into their first dance; “Love Somebody” by Maroon 5. An incredible buffet meal put together by our good friends at Zeffert and Gold Catering came next (the lobster sliders were legendary!). After dinner, Shawn’s Brother and Best Man and Ann’s Maid of Honor raised a drink and made a toast to the newlyweds before a surprise live performance of “All You Need Is Love” by Mzz B & Company. Whitney Houston’s “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” opened up the dance floor and was followed by requests for hits by Don Omar, Young MC, Gloria Gaynor, 50 Cent, John Denver, Missy Elliot and many more. Folks enjoyed cupcakes for dessert and simply partied for the rest of the night. Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believing” was the last song of a really fun reception. 18 months ago we met Ann & Shawn and instantly fell in love with this awesome couple. Working with them was a pleasure and their celebration last night was picture perfect. Thanks to Caitlin with Caitlin Krebs Events for being great and assisting us and congratulations to the new Mr. & Mrs. Massie!
