Riley & Corey

Riley and Corey’s refined spring wedding at Batten Green in Staunton, Virginia was a heartfelt celebration of enduring love. With the venue’s in-house planning team guiding the day, every detail unfolded with ease and elegance. Set in a bright, airy space featuring brass chandeliers and patterned tile flooring, their celebration struck a perfect balance between rustic charm and modern style.

​

Guests gathered in the softly lit ceremony space, where bentwood chairs lined the aisle and a flowing white drape framed the altar as the couple exchanged vows. During cocktail hour, guests mingled around an artfully arranged buffet from Autumn’s Catering & Cafe, featuring tiered stands of pastries and sandwiches, rustic charcuterie boards, and eucalyptus accents. A cheerful arrangement of yellow daisies and pink lilies brought a vibrant touch to the display, echoing the season’s natural beauty.

​

The reception unfolded beneath Batten Green’s tent pavilion, where tables dressed in crisp white linens were set with gold-toned charger plates and delicate white dishware. The open sides of the tent revealed views of surrounding greenery, adding to the relaxed, romantic ambiance. Centerpieces took an eco-conscious approach, with repurposed glass bottles filled with simple sprigs of greenery and foliage.

The couple’s three-tiered naked cake, adorned with fresh flowers, embodied understated elegance.
