Aaron & Allison's UVA Chapel and Keswick Vineyards Wedding

Allison has a smile that lights up a room and Aaron brings that smile on every minute they are together. We became best friends as we shared a year and a half of not only wedding planning, but this happy couple also bought a house and Aaron was taking the bar exam. Even with all of that busyness, he was a great planner and supported Allison every step of the way. The ceremony took place on a sunny August morning at the gorgeous University of Virginia Chapel, where Aaron was attending law school. Allison wore a beautiful satin gown as her Dad escorted her down the aisle to Aaron, the long awaiting groom. Friends and family celebrated with cocktails, dinner and dancing at Keswick Vineyards later that afternoon and into the evening. The Sperry Tent looked more special than ever with décor by Skyline Tent and Floral Images. 20 South and Cakes Unlimited kept the crowd happy with a beautiful display of stations for dinner and traditional wedding cake. The guests loved watching a video of photos of Allison and Aaron as they grew up with their families and friends and then fell in love. They all danced and had a great time to the tunes of DJ Derek Tobler before ending the night with a sparkler get-away. Aaron passed the bar – yay! We will see where their next adventures take them, but no matter what, they are always smiling. Enjoy these gorgeous pictures from JMK Photos- they're sure to make you smile!

Erin and Andrew's July Wedding

Okay, so it was a little warm this July day, but we all made the best of what was a wonderful new marriage and celebration of family and friends. Erin and Andrew melted for each other anyway! Derek Tobler carried the music for the entire day with first the processional of the groom Andrew escorting his Mother Chris, then Kevin, the bride’s brother escorting mother Bonnie to the ceremony location nestled against the vineyard with the blue ridge mountains in the background. Andrew’s Father Skip honored them as the officiant of marriage – how special is that? As Erin’s Father Brian took her gently and lovingly down the aisle, there was not a dry eye. Short and sweet in the heat and on to cocktails while the bride and groom took their golf cart “Limo” ride to the Keswick pond for some cool breeze photos by Jamie of JMK Photos. 20 South Catering had cold beverages for the guests as they enjoyed misting fans on the lawn during lawn games. Dinner was family style and so very beautiful and comfy under Skyline’s Sperry Tent. When everyone was ready to dance, we had a blast with icy washcloths tossed to the dance floor. Sparklers at the end of the night was the best send-off ever as Erin and Andrew rode away in the Albemarle Antique Limousine. Many happy years together Andrew and Erin!!!!
