Matt and I were married at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Washington, DC. We did a first look in the church before the ceremony, then took pictures with our wedding party at Meridian Hill Park. After the ceremony, our reception was held at the Josephine Butler Parks Center, a beautiful historic mansion. We took some portraits upstairs while cocktail hour started on the first floor. After dinner (served by two food trucks), his brother and my sister gave their best man and maid of honor speeches, respectively. Then my two brothers joined my sister with guitars and sang a few funny songs they had changed the words to be about Matt & I. Their performance ended with everyone singing along to I Can't Help Falling in Love With You. There wasn't a dry eye in the house! Finally, the DJ kept the dance floor packed all night and guests took breaks having fun in a photo booth with FRIENDS themed props, including quote bubbles that said "We were on a break!" and "How you doin'?" It was magical!
