A Glam Luxe Wedding in Washington, D.C.

Andrea and Julian’s journey together began on a warm July day in 2010, when their paths crossed at a beautiful wedding celebration. It was a moment filled with laughter, dancing, and the kind of connection that leaves a lasting impression. However, as the summer drew to a close, life took them in different directions, and they eventually lost touch, each going their own way.

Fast forward to August 2017, when fate intervened once more. This time, it was social media that brought them back together. The timing couldn’t have been more perfect; both Andrea and Julian had grown and changed over the years, but the bond between them felt as strong as ever. They quickly became inseparable, spending countless hours together, exploring new places, and creating cherished memories.

Excited to mark this new chapter in their lives, the couple walked down the aisle in a luxe wedding ceremony with planning and design by Pearls 360 Design, and captured by Mesus Studios and Aperfilms.

Engagement Story 

It all took place at Andrea’s 30th birthday party. As the party went on, everyone was vibing and enjoying themselves. Unbeknownst to Andrea, Julian had a surprise up his sleeve, and everyone was in on it. Julian called Andrea to the middle of the party. Everyone surrounded them while Julian professed his love for Andrea. Soon after, he got down on one knee and asked her to be his forever. She tearfully said yes. The DJ went on to play Next’s “Wifey,” and everyone danced the night away.
