A Celebration of Love: Kirby & Trent’s Stunning Keswick Vineyards Wedding
What a difference a day makes! After yesterday's couple navigated their wedding during Hurricane Helene, Kirby and Trent were treated to nothing but sunny blue skies for their celebration. As they say, "If you don't like the weather in Virginia, wait an hour!"
Kirby and Trent set the tone the moment their guests arrived at Keswick Vineyards, one of Charlottesville's top wedding venues. Walking through the stunning corridor of Edgewood Estate, guests were greeted by an elegant champagne tower. The scene was further enhanced by the estate's natural beauty, with vineyards, mountains, and the iconic fountain creating a perfect backdrop for their outdoor ceremony.
After the heartfelt vows, guests headed to cocktail hour, where a large hanging fabric displayed their table assignments. At the bar, they were greeted by a sweet touch—a Polaroid photo of the couple’s dog, Ginger, posed in front of the fountain. Though Ginger couldn't physically attend, her presence was still felt.
One special moment was when I happened to catch the couple sneaking a quiet moment by the pool, enjoying appetizers and toasting to their marriage just after their ceremony.
As everyone moved into the Aurora tent, they were immediately drawn to the showstopping decor—a wreath-shaped structure hung over the dance floor, adorned with multiple disco balls. Below, a striking black-and-white checkered dance floor signaled that dancing was a high priority for the evening. The couple made sure their guests were well-fed with a decadent menu featuring filet mignon, salmon, and later in the night, Cane’s fried chicken for a fun, late-night snack.
Kirby and Trent’s wedding was a day filled with beauty, joy, and celebration, making it a perfect reminder of how magical weddings at Keswick Vineyards can be—especially when the Virginia weather cooperates!
