We met Sabrina last year at her cousin’s wedding and were thrilled when she called us to photograph her wedding. She and Ben planned a Hindu ceremony and then a Jewish ceremony to blend their two faiths and both were stunning.
We started off the day with the Hindu ceremony at The Hay Adams hotel in their newly remodeled rooftop space called the Top of the Hay overlooking the White House and the Washington Monument. You can’t find many better views in the entire city. Most of Ben’s family was in from California so I don’t think that view went unnoticed at all!
After that, it was off to the Ritz Carlton Washington for the Jewish ceremony and the reception. Sabrina is the lucky bride who not only gets to wear multiple dresses throughout her day but looks beautiful in all of them.
Julie Savage of Strawberry Milk Events filled the entire day from the ceremonies to the reception with so many amazing details. When you deal with The Hay Adams and the Ritz Carlton, the venues are beautiful to begin with but when you add all the detail and lighting, they just come alive.
I know it was a long day for Sabrina and Ben but WOW, what a day it was!!
