Jessica & John's Wedding Day | Jessica & John

On Saturday, August 10th, Jessica & John were married at Keswick Vineyards by Officiant Brian Purcell. Mother Nature delivered us an amazing day with beautiful blue skies and a slight breeze and cooler weather. Jessica looked amazing, and so did John, but I thought their dog was just adorable preceding Jessica down the aisle wearing a sign saying "Here Comes The Bride". Jessica & John knew how to make a grand entrance to their reception. They, along with the rest of their wedding party, performed a dance that definitely set a tone for the rest of the evening.

Most Out Of Town Guests Wedding | Amber & Andrew

Congratulations to Amber & Andrew who were married at Keswick Vineyards on Saturday, August 3rd. It was amazing to find out how many different states and countries that their guests traveled from to attend their wedding. Some that I can remember were: New York, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Texas, Iowa, Maryland, Virginia, Washington DC, Washington State, Canada, Brazil & Chili. There were probably more that I just can't remember. And let me say, these guests came to party! I've never seen a dance floor stay packed for the entire reception like I did on this evening. Usually a lot of guests hang out near the bar and watch people dance. Not this group. They came to dance and have a great time. In the middle of the reception Amber and Andrew were serenaded by a group of their friends to the theme from Beauty and the Beast but with different lyrics. It was awesome! One of my favorite details from this wedding was how they numbered their reception tables. For every table number, they matched a photo of each of them at that age. So, for table #6, there would be a picture of Amber at 6 and a picture of Andrew at age 6. What a great idea!

Their wedding couldn't of been possible without the following vendors: 20 South Catering, Event Planner Barb Wired, DJ TD Layman of Sound Enforcement, Photographer Ashley Whitlow, Florist Verde Natural Florals, Pastry Chef Hot Cakes, Hair by Lauren Perkins, Make-up by Jessica Biehl, Musician Peter Richardson, Officiant Jessica Sellers, Rentals by MS Events and A&A Limousine for buses.

Mazel Tov!!! | Fayette & Mark

Congratulations to Fayette & Mark who were married at Keswick Vineyards on Saturday, July 27th. Mother Nature played tricks with the weather radar all day making it a little stressful for a decision if the ceremony should be held outside or under the tent. Fayette had the final decision and she chose to have the ceremony outside so we all got busy to make that happen. Flowers by Natalie did an amazing chuppah for their ceremony, I have never seen one like that before. It was just perfect for a vineyard ceremony. Fayette wore the most striking wedding dress. The details and lines to it really made a statement. She looked amazing! Guests couldn't help but to get up and do the traditional hora chair dance. Even both sets of parents were hoisted up! And, after the stress Mother Nature caused during the afternoon, she ended up delivering us a beautiful evening for everyone to enjoy.

Special thanks to the following vendors for doing an amazing job: Caterer Harvest Moon, Event Planner Barb Wired, DJ Pauly Madison, Photographer Aaron Watson, Flowers by Natalie, Pastry Chef Albemarle Bakery, Cantor Jinny Marsh and Ambassador Limo for buses and limo's.
