St. Mary’s Church Wedding and Reception at USNA Officer’s Club | Ali & Josh | Annapolis Wedding Photographer

A classic and traditional Catholic wedding at St. Mary's Church in Annapolis with reception at US Naval Academy Officer's Club by Maryland wedding Christa Rae Photography

Ali and Josh became husband and wife at the gorgeous St. Mary’s Church in Annapolis, followed by a very fun filled reception at the Naval Academy Officer’s Club.

These two have an amazing love story. Ali and Joshua met in the third grade, dated in high school, were good friends throughout college even though they went to different colleges, and reconnected and started dating again in their senior year. After college, Ali and Josh moved to Seattle where Ali is stationed in the Navy. Josh proposed to Ali in the kitchen of their home, just the two of them. She came home to a homemade dinner and in his hands was bouquet of yellow roses for her.

Congratulations, newlyweds! It was amazing capturing your love!
