It’s no mystery that this couple’s Spy Museum wedding was a must-see

Spy Museum wedding

Katie and Kyle's wedding at the iconic Spy Museum in Washington, DC was completely personalized - the pair drew inspiration from the jewel tones in their home decor, as well as from the geometric, art deco vibes of the FC Tulsa logo. FC Tulsa, in particular, is near and dear to the couple, as it is a professional soccer club in Oklahoma that Kyle owns and founded. Captured by Sarah Murray Photo and planned with the help of Cherry Blossom Events, this colorful and contemporary wedding is an absolute must-see!

Invitations with a secret

Katie and Kyle really embraced the Spy Museum venue, beginning with their invitations. Each invitation had a secret envelope with a task for people to solve. Guests completed a mission on the wedding website to get a secret code that was displayed day-of on the escort wall. Guests who got the code right on their RSVP won a door prize of custom matchbooks!

Timeless lace details

Katie donned a fitted gown with timeless lace details, complemented by a matching lace-trimmed veil. Her bouquet by The Rosy Posy was filled with off-white roses, pops of red, and plenty of pretty blues. Her jewelry was kept simple so that the glam by Carla Pressley Hair and Makeup took center stage.
