They say that a little rain on your wedding day is a sign of luck, and if that’s the case, Morgan and Justin are in for nothing but bliss and bounty! The venue that Morgan and Justin chose for their wedding was the historic Belmont Manor in Elkridge, Md. and the home was full of beautiful charms and details. The grounds and the garden surrounding the manor were also lush with greenery and flowers that made for a memorable photos. Follow along as we document the love story of Morgan and Justin, who were married by the same officiant who married Morgan’s parents 29 years ago.
There were two First Look moments for Morgan. First, she had one with her beloved father, who received her in her full bridal splendor with twinkling eyes and a warm smile.
With the official blessing from daddy, it was time for Morgan to head off to Belmont Manor for a First Look with her husband-to-be, Justin.
Justin is in complete shock and awe at the sight of his beautiful bride in all of her glory! Fellas, when you’ve got a real one, you know it!
Officially married and kissing in the rain! Nothing can stop the love of Justin and Morgan!
Morgan surrounded by some of the most important maternal figures in her life, including her mother-in-law and her mother.
Morgan’s love for her daddy was so touching! Seeing her tear up during the father-daughter dance during the wedding reception just filled everyone with a sense of pure joy.
