The Millstad Center Joppa MD Wedding : Kristie + Ray : Laura Patrick Photography

Kristie and Ray met while on a 10 day trip in Israel.  They were on the same tour bus and didn't even know each other existed.  The leader of the tour and the pastor of the school/church that Kristie teaches at decided to do a little match-making and by the last day there Ray had finally asked Kristie for her phone number... the rest is history.  Kristie and Ray long distance dated for a little while before Ray decided to make it official and ask Kristie to be his wife.  The obvious love and admiration these two have for each other was so beautiful to witness on their wedding day.  Their ceremony was finished with a rose petal send-off and guests headed off to The Millstad Center for the reception.  The toasts were heartfelt and emotional and the night ended with Kristie smashing cake into Ray's face.  Kristie and Ray- I pray blessings over your marriage and I am so grateful to have captured the start of your life together!
