CHRISTIAN + BRENT
Christian and Brent are the picture of the beautiful college love story young girls dream of. First, they met Christian’s freshmen year at Howard University. Then, with the help of a mutual friend’s Facebook profile they first connected online. Years later, their Washington, DC wedding was a vision of modern holiday glam. And among the many vendors present, we were excited to set up the booth for a night of fun and laughter.
During the chilly nights of winter, Christian and Brent’s big day was December 16, 2017. Christian, the bride, is visual artist/product developer. Similarly, both artists, Brent, the groom, is a saxophonist/composer. Lastly, LongView Gallery in Washington, DC was the venue for their reception.
