Erika & Jordan’s Wedding Day | Erika & Jordan
Congratulations to Erika and Jordan who were married by Claire Goodman amongst the vines at Keswick Vineyards on Saturday, September 19th. With over 200 weddings performed so far at Keswick Vineyards, I would have to say that the vows written by Jordan were some of the best I have heard from a groom. Not only were his words so personal, emotional, humorous at times, just so touching but I loved even more how he was always reaching out to hold Erika’s hand. My favorite part was when Erika was done saying her vows that were also so beautiful and touching that Jordan was moved so much that he had to give her a hug and then wanted to give her a kiss. The crowd quickly let him know that a kiss was not allowed yet so Jordan quickly took his hands off of her. The guests really got a good chuckle out of that.
A favorite item from this wedding was a large monogram stand Erika’s father had made out of corks. I also like the framed table assignments that were displayed on a table before guests entered the Sperry tent. Each table number match a framed photo of the bride and groom at that age. Table 8 had a picture of Erika and Jordan at age 8 and so on. Very cute!
Guests danced the night away with DJ Stroud at the controls and enjoyed a late night snack of breakfast burritos and hash browns prepared by Harvest Moon.
Thank you to the following vendors for making another dream wedding come true: Wedding Planner Julie Cooney, Caterer Harvest Moon, Officiant Claire Goodman, Cakes by Rachel, DJ Stroud, Photographer Raiza Vega, Flowers by Cathy Coyle, Transportation by Easy Rider, Hair & Make-up by Faces by Joy.
Aimee & Joshua Tie The Knot! | Aimee & Joshua
Congratulations to Aimee & Joshua who were married at Keswick Vineyards on Saturday, September 12th. The two of them could not of been happier with the weather that Mother Nature provided them. With overcast skies the temperature was just perfect and provided such beautiful lighting for their photos. I love the color of green that Joshua actually chose. Accented with white baby breath bouquets and the men dressed in light tan made such a stylish wedding party. And let’s not forget about the cuteness that their flower girl and ring bearer brought. Adorable! Instead of a guest sign in book they chose to have a matted tree print with leaves that each guests would sign. I’m sure they will be hanging that in their home. Thanks to Harvest Moon, guests enjoyed a delicious buffet dinner followed by all night dance under the direction of Dennis Payne of Playback DJ. As you can see, the dancing was non-stop! A sweet touch on the dessert table was to spell out the word LOVE with cupcakes. Cute, huh?
Thanks to the following vendors for all their help: Caterer Harvest Moon, DJ Dennis Payne of Playback DJ, Reverend Barb Jacobs, Passionflower Cakes, Photographers Samantha & Mikey of The Photography Smiths, Lisa McMahon as florist, Make up by Brideface, Hair by Simply You Salon and Transportation by Albemarle Limousine.
Mallory and Kurt Get Married! | Mallory & Kurt
Ending our stretch of three weddings over Labor Day we celebrated Mallory and Kurt! We knew we were going to fall in love with them when they first walked into our office… we were right! The couple was so unique and their wedding showcased that. They brought personal touches to every element of their decorations which truly made it a one of a kind day. The bride, dressed in ivory lace, was so bubbly and happy throughout the entire day. With a flower crown on top of her head she frolicked around the vineyard both before and after the ceremony simply in bliss! Her ceremony in front of the fountain made for the perfect backdrop for the couple, their guests, and their little dog too. It’s a well-known fact that we welcome dogs here at Keswick, and we especially loved how theirs was the first to greet mommy and daddy after the ceremony! Following ceremony guests were greeted into cocktail hour by the tunes of a bluegrass band, Whiskey Rebellion. The group serenaded their guests with acoustics and kick started the initial dancing for this crowd! The couple also had a signature Cajun Lemonade cocktail from Southern Inn Catering, an absolutely delicious spiked lemonade for a breezy September day! Homemade touches were found throughout her entire wedding including hand jarred raw local honey for her guest favors. Such a sweet touch! Congratulations to Mallory and Kurt!

Katie and Patrick's Wedding Day! | Katie & Patrick
Is there a doctor in the house? PLENTY! This wedding had ever kind of medical professional you could image in attendance and they held true to the good old work hard play hard mentality! This group was a ball full of energy and it radiated through their entire crowd. Guests were greeted with a spiked lemonade stand courtesy of Harvest Moon Catering, followed by a beautiful vineyard ceremony. A raw oyster bar was the headliner for this couples cocktail hour with a magnificent ice sculpture display. Such a fun interactive treat! Cheers, hoots, and constant laughter with dancing were how they continued all the way through the night. The group was all about having the best time together with family and friends and it showed. The dance floor stayed full with the help of DJ Andy Wilfong and adults and kids alike kept the spirits alive! To end the evening guests were treated with a late night snack of sliders and old bay tater tots before sending the newlyweds and their guest off with our favorite sparkler send off. Congratulations to Katie and Patrick! Cheers!
