Surrounded by the bustling streets of Baltimore, tucked away in a historical gem known as the 1840’s Plaza, Amy and Shane made their forever official. Their wedding day was a breathtaking blend of timeless elegance, heartfelt moments, and vibrant celebrations against the backdrop of this hidden urban oasis. 

The day kicked off with Amy and Shane getting prepped at a relative’s house, a spacious and well-lit haven that set the scene for all the wedding excitement. Opting for a first look and private vows beforehand, they cleverly sidestepped any pre-ceremony jitters. A nod to my introverted pals out there—this trick might just be your ticket to sharing those intimate vows without the audience pressure (except for me, maybe, but shh!).

Adding to the charm was Gus, the adorable fluffy pup you might have spotted in the photos. Since it was his birthday, he got his own little pawty moment with a pupcake—cue the collective “awws”!

The venue itself, the 1840’s Plaza, proved to be the most beautiful setting and with an amazing team of vendors the perfect wedding experience was created for Amy and Shane. 

Nestled in the heart of Baltimore, this historic setting offered a unique blend of old-world charm and urban chic. With its classic architecture and picturesque courtyard, it was the perfect canvas for this romantic celebration. 

Speaking of the courtyard, it stole the show, transforming into an enchanting space for an alfresco cocktail hour.

Floral arrangements by Yarrow Floral added a touch of natural beauty to the day. From the stunning bouquets carried by Amy and her bridesmaids to the enchanting ceremony backdrop, every petal was meticulously placed, (and placed again and again due to some minor wind issues) creating an ambiance of romance and refinement. Yarrow Floral’s artistry truly elevated the entire event.

The day flowed seamlessly, courtesy of The Otherside Creatives, masters of detail and execution. With their expertise, Amy and Shane’s vision unfolded effortlessly, leaving everyone free to soak in the magic of the day.

Entertainment by Watershed Entertainment kept spirits high from speeches to the dance floor, ensuring unforgettable moments for all.

As the night drew to a close, with hearts full and smiles bright, Amy and Shane’s wedding at the 1840’s Plaza was a testament to the power of love and celebration. It was an honor to witness their special day unfold in such a picturesque setting, where every detail was thoughtfully curated to reflect their unique love story.

Here’s to Amy and Shane—may your journey ahead be as beautiful and joyous as your wedding day at the 1840’s Plaza in Baltimore. Cheers to a lifetime of love and happiness!
