Nicole & Patrick

Nicole and Patrick’s spring Castle Hill Cider wedding took on the historic estate’s enchanting orchard ambiance in a soft palette of pink, peach and blue. The couple said their I-do’s in the iconic white cider barn under golden strung lighting. Bridesmaids wore pastel pink and groomsmen’s tuxedos were a rich deep blue with boutique bouquets by Charlottesville wedding florists Verde Natural Florals adding to the fresh garden ambiance.

Charlottesville wedding photographer Courtney Collins Photography captured misty mid-May clouds moving through the forested hills and a touching first look on the lush terraced lawn. Wedding planners from All The Dainty Details curated the festivities with petite gold and ivory candles on pale pink linens dotted by oak barrel touches. A vintage Polaroid guestbook and tiny succulents as party favor table numbers added personal dashes to the sentimental Charlottesville wedding.

Top-tier Charlottesville catering by Harvest Moon Catering — including gourmet grilled cheese bites with tomato soup shots — fueled guests with locally grown goodness and a gorgeous dessert by Cake Bloom crowned the evening.
