Katie and Travis, both Army helicopter pilots working in the DC-area, wanted to give their out-of-town guests the ultimate Washington DC destination wedding experience. Their St. Patrick’s Catholic Church nuptial mass was followed by a spirited reception at the Willard Inter-Continental Hotel. The band Onyx packed the dance floor for over two hours straight, and guests were delighted by late night sliders, fries and bottled Coca Cola.

Everything turned out just the way we wanted it to. Thank you so much for your help these past 10 months, we couldn't have done this without you. My family had a great time and I think our guests had a blast. We really appreciate all the time and effort you put into making our wedding so great. I know October is a busy month for you but hopefully you can get a break soon. Thanks so much!-Katie and Travis Buehner
