The bride is a graduate of Shenandoah Valley Christian Academy and is currently a full-time student at Shenandoah University. The couple honeymooned in Orlando, Fla. following the wedding and they reside in Front Royal. The club participated in the Glen Burnie joint garden clubs annual gathering, the Festival of the Leaves, the District Meeting at Lake of the Woods, and the workshop with Pat Rowe of Debbie's Ivy Garden.
