Venue SpotlightS

Oakdale

What makes it unique:
The modern barn aesthetic. If you want to be married at a venue with a slight rustic touch but want to keep your overall aesthetic clean and modern, this is a great venue.



My favorite spot for photos:
Catching the sunset by the fence closer to the entrance. Your venue coordinator will golf cart us to our favorite spot!

The Estate at River Run

What makes it unique:
The Estate at River Run has a ton of photo locations! If there is that slight chance of rain on your wedding day, there will always be a backup plan in place. I also love cocktail hour by the pool.



My favorite spot for photos:
The line of trees to the right of the ceremony area. In the spring time, these trees are so beautiful to photograph under, especially when extra sunlight is shining through.

The Virginia House

What makes it unique:
While it's central location in Richmond, Virginia is ideal, this venue is also so beautiful. Even without tons of beautiful wedding decor, the venue shines on it's own. There are tons of breathtaking views from all angles of The Virginia House.



My favorite spot for photos:
In front of The Virginia House. You can capture it's beauty and historic fullness in all of your photos there. But I prefer to go all around the venue for photos.

Common house - Richmond

What makes it unique:
Located in downtown Richmond, Virginia, this venue is very urban and vibrant. There isn't a lot of outdoor area for this location but that just allows us to get creative together. This venue gives a more intimate vibe to your wedding and I can't get enough of it! 



My favorite spot for photos:
The rooftop during sunset. We can capture the whole city of Richmond in those photos.

The williamsburg inn

What makes it unique:
Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia is such a historic city. Everywhere you look there is a classic photo op. This venue has a ton of fun wedding twists involved like a horse drawn carriage throughout colonial Williamsburg for bride & groom photos.



My favorite spot for photos:
Sunset time, right by the fountain right outside.
