Shelby & Jon’s Wedding was nothing short of extraordinary. These two are so in love, so joyful and filled with emotion… that I was brought to tears on more than one occasion. And with a red, white, and blue color palette – to the beauty of their ceremony at the Naval Academy Chapel, Jon’s military service was the center of inspiration for their wedding day.
Over the last two years, I’ve been excitedly awaiting Shelby and Jon’s wedding. Through mountains of cheerful emails and an amazing engagement session, I feel as though I’ve gained two wonderful friends. And that’s the thing about Shelby and Jon… They have a way of making the people around them feel so very special and loved. These two are truly selfless and compassionate, so giving of their hearts – that the world is a better place simply by having them in it. And judging by the shared tears and laughter of their beloved friends and family… I’m not alone in that heartfelt sentiment!
Congratulations Captain & Mrs. Galinski! Wishing you a lifetime of love + happiness!
