Kara & David in Washington, DC

Even though Kara and David were getting married in historic Washington, DC, that didn’t stop them from throwing the tropical celebration they wanted. The Bride Kara Heitz, 30 The Groom David Sylvester, 26 The Date July 23 A visual riot of hot pink, red, and bright orange, Kara and David’s wedding was inspired by their midsummer wedding date, and yes, a Miami Vice marathon. The result: spectacular wedding eye candy at every turn, from tropical arrangements to the red fabric–draped after-party lounge.
