Gina and Chris
Gina & Chris met by playing social sports in Baltimore. Gina was playing on a team with teachers she worked with and the team needed a few guys. One of Chris’s friends was recruited to play on the team for softball and he brought Chris along for football season. They hit it off instantly and had many a date at Camden Yards and M & T Bank stadium.
They took a long weekend trip to Maine simply because they had been there once before. Gina & Chris decided that when they returned they were going to watch the sun rise on Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park. This is the first place in the United States where you can see the sun rise. Naturally, they added it to their bucket list. When they arrived it was very dark and as the sun began to rise, Chris proposed!
Baseball was the theme and their colors were based off of the Orioles and Red Sox- navy with splashes of orange. They linked baseball connections throughout the day. Ceremony- the ring bearer carried a glove with a baseball pillow to hold the rings. One of the junior bridesmaids carried a white with red flowers (to resemble stitching) pomander ball. The Prayer of the Faithful mentioned sports. When Gina & Chris exited the church the bridal party held up bats! There were crackerjacks and peanuts in baggies for the guests when they arrived to Ripken Stadium.
Section #s as table #s, different team pennants for each table, baseballs with heart stitching, crackerjacks, peanuts, water bottles with team labels, flip flop baskets that said “for your dancing feet” for guests to change into, bathroom baskets, personalized baseball bat, baseballs with the wedding date and a home plate for guests to sign.
