Alli & Tim

Alli and Tim’s September Charlottesville wedding shone with late-summer vineyard bliss. The classic Veritas Vineyard wedding wore shades of powder blue and rich polished navy accentuated by playful garden floral prints.

The couple’s original 2020 wedding was postponed to 2021 and sweet save the new date notes stated “love is patient and worth the wait.” The day flowed between Veritas Vineyard's elegant winery and countryside grounds, offering cascading mountain and panoramic vineyard views.

Charlottesville wedding photographers from 3 Cats Photography captured creative reflective shots, playing with streaming rainbow beams of sunlight and delivering a breathtaking blend of black and white and warm full-color imagery. The trained lens caught slow dance moments in the grand Saddleback Hall entryway beneath floor-to-ceiling window panes, a verdant lawn ceremony soaked in September sun, newlywed kisses in front of glowing vineyard rows and jubilant wedding party shots under soaring shade trees.

Veritas Vineyard wedding planner Emily Clemenson arranged seamless transitions from the ceremony lawn to a sneak-away newlywed embrace in the stoic wine cellar to a graceful ballroom reception. Guests delighted in personal touches that included slip-on shoes for comfortable dancing and a box of specialty cigars.

Charlottesville wedding florists Blue Ridge Floral Design delighted with locally grown arrangements, building stylish bouquets in ivory, white and soft blue with green leafing; the sweetest flower girl crown and a brilliant rustic half-moon archway complementing the natural Blue Ridge Mountain beauty. Décor by MS Events accentuated the enchanting Saddleback Hall grand ballroom in blue and paisley patterned linens and soft candlelight.

From pre-ceremony passed hors d’oeuvres in the form of gourmet flatbreads and cheese boards accompanied by flutes of rosé to a multi-course reception feast and desirable dessert table, Veritas Vineyards Catering team delivered a steady offering of refined, sophisticated cuisine.
