Alexa & Tommy

Alexa and Tommy’s fall Charlottesville wedding was swathed in soft sunlight and late-season grapevine bounty. Charming family-run Charlottesville wedding venue Veritas Vineyard delivered an elegant combination of indoor and outdoor venues set against sunset mountain silhouettes and deep gold and orange leaves.

The October wedding was a black tie affair with striking sleek tuxedos and elaborate florals. The bride’s flowing, layered gown exuded fairytale glam while the bridesmaids’ palette of terracotta, muted emerald and feathery mint set a soft feminine earthy tone.

Charlottesville wedding photographer Sarah Houston caught dreamy images in black and white stolen vineyard kisses, a touching moment between the bride and her father and the cutest infant flower girl in her floral wagon. Blue Ridge Floral Design brought in a pretty palette of blooms in stunning shades of mauve, mint, ivory and peach. The Charlottesville wedding floral designer’s delightful locally grown arrangements complemented the natural 250-acre farm with a custom ceremony arch and romantic reception tablescapes wrapped in green leafing and illuminated by gilded candlelight.

Charlottesville wedding caterers from the onsite Veritas Vineyards and Winery Catering team welcomed guests to the reception space festooned in Prescott lanterns, aged wine barrels and rustic wood farm tables before serving a regionally sourced grand ballroom feast paired with award-winning Veritas wines. A three-tier artistically textured red velvet wedding cake doused in vibrant florals from Cakes by Rachel capped the evening of dining and dancing.
