Third Time is a Charm: Gorgeous Wedding at Dumbarton House

Vanessa and Jairo live in Northern Virginia and they had planned for a destination wedding in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Planning for their Puerto Rico wedding was underway and then, for personal reason plans needed to be restructured. So we went ahead and found them a new venue, new date, new vendors, all still in Puerto Rico. Just as we were all packing our luggage and getting ready for the big occasion, Hurricane Irma happened and devastated the island just the same week of their wedding. So, that left us with three days to plan them a whole new wedding here in the DC area. But as the saying goes… Third Time is a Charm! Vanessa and Jairo got a beautiful Georgetown wedding at Dumbarton House, and it was nothing short of dreamy and perfect! Luckily, some of their key vendors were also flying to Puerto Rico from DC hence were available, and others jumped in immediately to the opportunity to give this gorgeous family the wedding they had already dreamed three times about! We were so thrilled to be able to make their dreams come to life. See below some of the photos of their day by the talented Renee Hollingshead Photography!
