Dominique & Christian
A Festive November Soiree at The Renaissance
Dominique and Christian's November wedding was a joyful celebration of their love, filled with vibrant colors, lush romantic florals, and an atmosphere of pure bliss. The couple exchanged vows at the historic Renaissance hotel, a stunning venue that provided the perfect charming Richmond backdrop for their special day.
Virginia wedding planners with Let's Get Married RVA orchestrated the exciting autumn day, setting the grand ballroom ceremony in a deep red and soft ivory palette, accentuating abundant red and pink roses curated by Flowers by Zoie. The bridesmaids, dressed in enchanting shades of fuchsia and muted rose, complemented the bride's look with their own lush floral arrangements.
Photographer Bri Ellington captured the couple's joy and emotion in stunning black and white and color images that highlighted the urban venue's timeless elegance. Following the ceremony, guests enjoyed a vibrant cocktail hour in the ballroom, sipping on signature drinks and indulging in passed hors d'oeuvres catered by the Renaissance's talented culinary team. The reception space itself was a vision of romantic opulence, with sparkling chandeliers, rich velvet draperies, and a striking mural of a Tuscan landscape as the backdrop.
As the evening progressed, the dance floor came alive with the pulsating beats of DJ Kameron Blaze, who kept the energy high and the guests moving all night long. Dominique and Christian shared their first dance as husband and wife, their smiles radiating pure happiness. The newlyweds were then joined by their bridal party, who danced the night away, celebrating the love and community that made this day so special.
