It was love at first sight. On a beach in Sarasota, Florida in 2013 Molly and Derek instantly knew that they had both found something special. Time nor distance could keep this sweet couple apart and in just 6 months, Derek proposed on Christmas morning surrounded by Molly's family. Flash forward to June 2016 at Vista Point in Norfolk, Virginia. A beautiful bride gets ready with the help of her beloved corgis. They make the day extra special and seem to understand the importance of the event about to take place. The sweeping views are breathtaking as the sun begins its slow descent into the horizon. The Chesapeake Bay glimmers in the background, overshadowed only by the glowing couple declaring their love for one another. Surrounded by family and friends, Derek and Molly exchanged their vows. Even the wind played an important role. Though it was an uninvited guest, the photos were made even better by its unexpected arrival. It was a truly magical ceremony. The bride is not only beautiful, but talented too! All of the bouquets and table settings were her creations! That's not all, she even made her own three-tiered wedding cake with gorgeous white flowers cascading down the side. It was a work of art and a labor of love. They celebrated into the evening and danced until the very last song. It was a perfect ending to a perfect day. Congratulations, Derek and Molly!
