Country Chic | Julie & Travis

Travis and Julie were wedding number two over our 4th of July weekend. They channeled their country roots and showcased that during their beautiful Charlottesville vineyard wedding on Sunday, July 2nd.

Every detail of their event was carefully thought out and carried along with the same theme. The bridesmaids wore short blush colored dresses with cowboy boots and the guys all sported their boots with boot-cut jeans. Attire aside, they kept the country wedding theme going with their detailed décor. We loved the wooden cupcake tiers that surrounded their main wedding cake. It brought the perfect amount of rustic into that portion of the night! Before they made their way to cake though, dinner had to be served! Hank’s Smokehouse served delicious hand pulled pork with a variety of “fixin’s” on the side. Guests loaded up their plates and hardly an ounce was left behind. That’s when you know it’s good!

Huong Up on Eddie | Huong & Eddie

Eddie and Huong came and kick started our 4th of July weekend here at Keswick Vineyards on Saturday, July 1st. The two were once upon a time Charlottesville locals and after recently making the move to Northern Virginia they were excited to come back for their wedding!

Pairing this couple together was an obvious choice. Eddie likes to think he knew from early on that the spitfire southern bell he met on the Downtown Mall was the one for him. Huong tells a different version, but nonetheless, almost 10 years later they walked down the aisle together as husband and wife after they said their I do’s!

Following their beautiful vineyard ceremony, they were ready to party. The couple and their wedding party snuck away for some quick photos and then they were ready to roll. They had the perfect summer night to enjoy with fine wine and amazing views. In true Huong and Eddie fashion, they needed to spice things up and end the night with more than just a sweet treat. They had custom poptarts made by the wonderful Wonderment of Charlottesville and brought in another local favorite, Benny Delucas pizza, to send guests off into the night fun and full!

Thank you to all of our vendors.

Ben Wins! | Winston & Ben

June 24th was a significant day for many reasons. Our wine maker and our wedding coordinator celebrated their birthdays and we celebrated the marriage of Winston and Ben! Everyone rolled in that Saturday in high spirits and they continued on throughout the day and well into the night.

The vineyard was this couple’s ceremony location of choice and it was perfect for their sunny summer day. They shared their vows with one another and proclaimed their love with their families and friends present. After that, the adventure truly began!

Signage has been trending in the weddings world as of recent, and I think it’s safe to say Winston and Ben following right along with this one (and then some)! Take a look at their massive welcome sign. It was almost as tall as me! We had to take a picture of it next to me for the comparison.

Another massive part of their wedding was their wedding party. They believed the more the merrier when it came to their group! They had an impressive lineup, all of which helped bring “Benston” together for their happily ever after.

Seven Years Strong | Kailie & Daniel

We shared our Father’s Day with Kailie and Daniel as they were married here at the vineyard. This couple were high school sweethearts and had been together an impressive 7 years! On the 18th of June we were there as the two became one with their marriage.

Kailie and Daniel had bright colors for their beautiful spring day. Their coral colored accents were perfect to brighten up their day. They kept the trend going throughout different areas of their wedding with their homemade décor. We love seeing our couples get crafty with their wedding day décor. It further personalizes their wedding day and make it beautifully unique to them!

After the couple symbolically blended their sand during their ceremony, the group was ready for cocktail hour around the corner on the East Lawn. Guests were encouraged to share their photos on Instagram with their cleverly crafted hashtag before they found their table and headed to the reception. Dinner was served, cake followed, and this bunch became another one of Keswick Vineyards happily married couples!

Congratulations to Kailie and Daniel and thank you to our vendors!
