Beautiful Summer Night Wedding at a Middleburg Virginia Winery

Happy Anniversary to Stephanie and Rob who married last year at Chrysalis Winery. Being that they love Chrysalis so much that they are VIP members, it made sense that they would want to have their wedding there as well. I remember the huge rainstorm that appeared as we were almost done with the rehearsal (luckily, the tent had gone up the day before so we could run under it); and an unexpected windy gust that blew the ceremony arch down during set up (thank goodness we weighed it down for the ceremony). What I remember most clearly was a beaming bride, and a dance some of the guests performed to Michael Jackson’s Thriller. So much fun! Thanks to Katie Stoops for sharing the photos. Enjoy — Vicky

Ceremony in the vineyard. Noticed we put a turf carpet down since it had rained so much the day before to keep the walk down the aisle nice and dry. Luckily black was in our color scheme. Note also the beautiful arch by Devers. Photo: Katie Stoops

Loved the color scheme – very classy and timeless. Devers Design Group did an amazing job with the centerpieces. Notice how wide the glass vase is to prevent tipping in the wind. Photo: Katie Stoops.
