The Tidewater Inn Wedding: Rachael + Giovanni

After the fun engagement photo session in Philadelphia, the big day for Rachael and Giovanni finally came!

Their wedding venue was at the beautiful and historic Tidewater Inn, Easton, Maryland. It was convenient for the family and the guests that came from out of town because they could spend the night there and all the happenings were also in the same site.

Yup, the venue is a hotel as well. A beautiful historic hotel. 🙂

Although, Rachael and Giovanni lived in the suburbs area of Philadelphia, Rachael grew up in Maryland. In fact, her late Grandmother used to play bridge at The Tidewater Inn. This was why the venue was special for Rachael.

Beautiful wedding bands for the Bride and Groom. The beautiful diamond stone on Rachael’s engagement ring was actually from Rachael’s grandmother’s ring. Interestingly, her grandmother used to be a jeweler.
