Kim and Stuart’s Washington D.C. LDS Temple post was so full of gorgeousness that I knew their reception would need its own space on my blog.    Temple Wedding Fact:  There are 155+ operating temples for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day-Saints throughout the world.  Some regions have many within a short distance, while other areas require members to travel long distances to attend.  The state of Virginia does not have a temple, so when members of the church are looking to get married (or sealed as they call it)  they travel to The Washington D.C Temple in Kensington, MD.  It is 3.5-4 hour drive from Virginia Beach depending on traffic.  Once it even took me 8 hours to get home because I-95 was a parking lot–yikes!

Blush and Sage Cypress Point Country Club Virginia Beach Wedding Reception | Kim + Stuart Part II

I was so excited for this wedding!  Not only was it at my favorite place, The Washington D.C. Temple, but I’m so crazy about this fun couple!  I knew when I met Kim and Stuart that they were my kind of people!  They were so fun at their engagement session and I knew their wedding would be just as awesome as they are!  They were sealed as husband and wife on a Wednesday.   We had the entire temple grounds to ourselves.

Washington DC Temple Spring Wedding

Leslie and Payton were sealed for eternity on a chilly December day at the Washington DC Temple.  When I first met them at their Richmond engagement session, I instantly fell in love with them.  They are such a sweet couple and have so much love for one another.  Their family welcomed me with open arms and I immediately felt so at home with them.
