sneak peek: ryan & heather's wedding

Happy Friday! We're excited to share a little peek of one of our very favorite wedding couples, Heather & Ryan Zimmerman, who are featured on the cover and inside the new issue of Washingtonian Bride + Groom magazine, on sale today.

Heather & Ryan were not only a dream to work with to plan their wedding...but most of all they are both exceptionally kind and caring people. They founded the ziMS Foundation and dedicate much of their time to the worthy cause of finding a cure for multiple sclerosis, which Ryan's mother suffers from. Their beautfiul wedding would not have been possible without the incredibly hard work of a lot of our creative partners.

The biggest thanks and admiration to Abby Jiu for their gorgeous pictures and to everyone that gave us such beautiful things to photograph and the smoothest possible day...

Thank you to Suann and Sarah SIMPLESONG design for all of their lovely paper goods and Molly Jacques for her calligraphy.

Thank you Sweet Dani B. for the Miley cookies!

...to Amaryllis for their incredible work on ALL things floral and decor...bringing ideas to life...

Thank you to Design Cuisine, Frost Lighting, Syzygy Events, Nuage Designs, Sterling Artists & West Coast Music...for creating the most beautiful setting, an impeccable dining experience and amazing entertainment.
