First of a Triple Wedding Weekend | Cherissa & Frank

Fall is here which means lots of weddings.  Nothing can be better than having a fall, outdoor wedding in Virginia.  To start off this week end, Cherissa & Frank were married at Keswick Vineyards on Friday, October 4th.  Cherissa & Frank booked their wedding here site unseen.  They are from Virginia Beach and fell in love with Keswick Vineyards just by the photos they had seen.  They certainly could not of been disappointed with their choice.  Mother Nature did an outstanding job in providing picture perfect weather and the vendors all did an amazing job.  Cherissa & Frank have a tradition that every Friday night is pizza & wine night for them.  Their wedding night would be no different.  They brought in a pizza food truck to provide fresh, homemade pizza's as a late night snack.  Delicious!

Congratulations Liz & Greg! | Liz & Greg

Congratulations to Liz and Greg who were married at Keswick Vineyards on Saturday, September 28th.  Liz and Greg really have a silly side to them as you will see from some of my photos.  Really got to appreciate Greg's humor with his speech.  He really could be a stand-up comic.  Love how they added 30 Asian lanterns to hang through out the Sperry tent.  This was one partying group of guests who couldn't get enough dancing that evening.

Way Too Cute Of A Couple! | Kelly & Will

Congratulations to Kelly & Will who were married at Keswick Vineyards on Sunday, September 22nd.  It was hard to believe that Kelly & Will's wedding day was finally here.  I still remember showing the two of them around last year and immediately hitting it off with them.  The cuteness of this couple is sickening!  Their love story and all their special little quirks they have for one another (even a secret language) is so adorable.  3:11 has a special meaning to them so it was only appropriate that the wedding ceremony start promptly at 3:11.  Their hand written vows were so special and touching.  Lots of tissue was needed for this one!  As Kelly & Will would visit Keswick Vineyards through out the year leading to their wedding day, many discussions were about food.  Barbecue Exchange hit a home run with the delicious food items including some sliders and Mac & cheese with bacon fried balls!  To top off the evening, Carpe Donuts!  I was in heaven along with the rest of the Keswick staff that evening.
