An Classic Wedding at CrossKeys Vineyard in the Shenandoah Mountains
Nick and Kaitlyn's wedding day so classically inspired! From the elegant, classic white rose, ranunculus, and hydrangea floral scheme by Faded Poppy to the elegant greenery and white gold details that donned the reception and ceremony space, this wedding was absolutely stunning and the perfect nod to classic yet modern bridal details.
Kaitlyn wore a gorgeous Allure Bridals beaded lace gown from Studio I Do Roanoke while her bridesmaids wore a variety of petal pink gowns and her bridesman wore the same classic black tux worn by Nick and the groomsman. Of course there's nothing like a gorgeous cathedral veil and cascading bridal bouquet, so when it came down to portraits, they were nothing short of stunning!
The arbor where they exchanged their vows was flanked by two wine barrels decorated with the same gold elements, candles, and white florals and greenery that Faded Poppy certainly delivered on. Their ceremony overlooked the deep blue ridges of the Shenandoah Mountains skyline, before the cold of fall touched the leaves and during a perfect timed early October overcast day.
The reception tables in the elegant CrossKeys Vineyard ballroom were decorated with white linens, candles, and classic white wedding florals and greenery, with touches of personal details sprinkled about in the bar area - like cocktails named after their pups! The night continued with toasts that left people laughing and crying and dancing that will forever leave their album full of memories and laughter, and it's days like these that leave wedding professionals feeling loved, successful, and wanting more of the joy shared by couples like Nick and Kaitlyn!
