Samantha and Evan fell in love with Charlottesville when they visited a few years ago on a hiking trip from their hometown in Pennsylvania! Because of their love of wine, they decided that Keswick Vineyards would be the perfect spot to get married which we completely agree with as Keswick Vineyards wedding photographers! What a fun morning we had watching Samantha and Evan get ready at Keswick Vineyards. The bridesmaids laughed and joked as they got their hair and makeup done and the groomsmen thought it would be funny to pose shirtless with suspenders by the pool. After that, we knew it was going to be a fun wedding day!
It was so touching to watch Evan’s reaction when seeing Samantha during their first look in the vineyards. They are truly a match made in heaven! Their little french bull dog, Newman, joined the party and everyone was just smitten with him! All of their guests really enjoyed their beautiful assortment of desserts at their dessert table! We highly recommend a desert table for every wedding, as it is always a hit with the guests and your vendors!
One of the funniest moments of the wedding day was when Evan and his fellow police officers posed in front of the Carpe Donut truck with Chief Wiggum from The Simpsons! Evan wasn’t lying when he said he loved donuts! Later in the evening Samantha and I were looking for him to do night pictures, and low and behold he had snuck away to the Donut truck again! We loved this couple’s sense of humor, and know they will have so much fun in life together.
Samantha and Evan, we wish you the best in life, and hope you had a lovely time on your honeymoon in Mauritius and South Africa!
