Valerie & Tom’s gorgeous wedding at Trump Winery was the epitome of rustic elegance. The couple originally met in Kansas when they happened to be staying at the same hotel while traveling for work. We love how an unlikely serendipitous moment brought them together! After moving to Virginia to be with Tom, Valerie could not think of a more perfect place to get married. The gorgeous Charlottesville wedding chapel was the perfect backdrop for this couple to share their vows. We love photographing in the chapel at Trump Winery; the ceiling creates a heavenly feel with the gold and white accents adding to the ambiance of the tiny church.
There were so many beautiful rustic details throughout Valerie & Tom’s wedding day, from the invitation suite to the signage. The gold, navy blue and ivory colors accompanying the rustic details created an elegant feel. It’s always wonderful to work with Cinda Hoege of White Birch Events, as she is very creative and has a great eye for detail. We loved the Trump Wine cork board that she made for the place cards (and we repurposed for the ring picture). There were so many classic moments in this wedding, it was hard to choose our favorites to share with all of you!
Valerie & Tom, we are so happy for you both and wish you all the best! Thank you for letting us be a part of your wedding day!
