Growing up in NY, I would occasionally visit Washington, DC for class trips & extended family vacations--it was a good time but didn't leave much of an impression. Thank goodness for maturity because as an adult, I'm bonkers for the place. It is striking, magical and awe-inspiring. (Not to mention a great nod to urban planning.) Maureen & Danny were the perfect personification of what I felt about my experience here: striking, magical, awe-inspiring but also adorable, funny and so very real. It was such a gift to be at their wedding and meet them & their incredible families. What a great weekend. (Note their coolness factor below when they stopped to chat and sip with strangers on a boat before heading into their reception at the Torpedo Factory, a kick-ass art center. Awesome. Oh, and there was fondue.)
