Today we are excited to share Meg & Eric’s wedding day on the blog! We had such an enjoyable time working with this fun-loving couple. The weather was remarkable for their late September wedding, which one might attribute to the two burying a bottle of bourbon at their 30 day final walkthrough. Enjoy browsing through some of our personal favorites from their wedding album captured by Aaron Watson Photography while they tell you a little more about their love story and how they met!




In October 2013, as Meg was living in New York City, she traveled to D.C. for a girl’s weekend away to visit friends. Their only plans were looking forward to a relaxing and fun weekend. That same weekend was also Eric’s birthday, and he was gathering his own friends for a night out.




One of the friends Meg was visiting, Melissa (one of our bridesmaids!), happened to be one of Eric’s roommates in a group house in Eastern Market. After spending the day exploring D.C., Melissa encouraged the girls to make just one more stop at Eric’s birthday party.




Eric saw Meg’s smile from across the bar, and knew he had to at least say hi. He finally gathered the courage to ask Meg about the Oregon Ducks football game that night, one of her favorite topics, just to get the conversation going.




Meg returned to New York City at the end of the weekend, and Eric had made the rookie mistake by not asking for her phone number. Luckily, Meg reached out first! They haven’t stopped talking since.



Meg and Eric continued to see each other long distance for two years before Meg decided to make the move to D.C. Over the last 5+ years, they have enjoyed traveling all over the country to visit friends, up and down the East Coast to visit family and sometimes spending quiet weekends in D.C. with their dog Bodie.
