Rachel and Jacob’s American Visionary Arts Museum wedding was a celebration full of laughter, color, and heartfelt joy. Located in the heart of Baltimore, MD, the venue was the perfect setting for their whimsical and ethereal garden-themed day. With delicate tones of sage green, peach, and periwinkle woven into everything from the florals to the cake, this wedding felt like a dreamy stroll through an enchanted storybook.
Their love story? Like many modern romances, it started with a swipe on a dating app. But for them, it was beshert—a Yiddish word for soulmate, destiny. From a first date at the Met to an unforgettable proposal in Central Park surrounded by friends and family, their journey has always been grounded in nature, connection, and joy. And honestly, those vibes carried seamlessly into their wedding day.
