Leeann and Scott met in high school in Rockbridge County, Virginia, but their history goes back even further. “Our grandmothers were in one another’s weddings. We became almost instant friends when we met during freshman year physical education class but didn’t start dating until senior year.”
The couple dated for twelve years before getting engaged. “We both got our masters degrees, worked hard to find our place in the professional world and moved to four different cities together. Once we felt fully settled in Frederick we decided it might be time, and got engaged in our living room on a hot July afternoon.”
85 guests were in attendance for their June nuptials, including three bridesmaids and three groomsmen.
“We were lucky enough to have my Dad serve as our officiant – he’s a preacher and performed my two older brothers’ ceremonies as well.”
When Leann and Scott were planning their wedding, they agreed that it had to include Frederick. “We knew we wanted to get married in Frederick so that we could bring all of our family and friends to see our awesome little corner of the world.”
The couple chose Tenth Ward’s Whiskey Hall for their big day. “We actually toured the space before construction even started and signed our contract before renovations were complete. It’s just a gorgeous building, with the perfect blend of industrial and modern finishes, and a badass team who makes everything run flawlessly.”
The couple decided to keep their decor minimal to let the beauty of the venue shine through. “We went for an easy, classic sort of feel and used lots of neutrals, metallics, and candles.”
The couple currently lives in Downtown Frederick.
