Yvette and Mel’s Intimate Backyard Wedding

Yvette and Mel have known each other for 13 years.  Mel used to visit Yvette’s work asking to see her for years before he was brave enough to finally ask her out on a date. Once he finally got the nerve the ask, you can see the rest is history.  

Mel proposed one casual evening on the couch watching a movie!  The bride, Yvette, would have gotten married in jeans and a T-shirt if her family allowed... YES my kind of woman!  Yvette and Mel will enjoy a wonderful and relaxing honeymoon at a cozy bed & breakfast in Pennsylvania.  Sounds like the perfect honeymoon for such a relaxed couple.  

Their wedding was a gorgeous fall evening.  It rained nearly all week leading up to the wedding, yet the couple lucked out with gorgeous blue skies as the sun shone down on them during the ceremony.  Their wedding was intimate, just family and close friends as they got married in the backyard of their Baltimore rowhouse.  Yvette’s dress was lovely and matched Mel’s suit perfectly. 

The subtle decorations, delicious food, beautiful cake and gorgeous bouquet were all coordinated by Yvette’s daughter, Tyese, who is a Baltimore wedding planner.  What an amazing job Tyese did planning this special day for her mom!   

Here are some of my favorite pictures from this wedding.
