D.C. Destination: A Wedding in Charlottesville IV

As I said this morning, I LOVE Charlottesville weddings…  Just a short drive from my favorite city (D.C.), Charlottesville provides an unbelievable backdrop for a wedding day.  Being from a small town on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, I love Charlottesville for the same reasons I love my hometown — the charm and the people.  In fact, I lived in Charlottesville for five years before moving to D.C.  

While I’ll always adore chic city weddings that take place in the heart of the District, I have a special place in my heart for weddings in Charlottesville. 

That’s why I decided to start planning my own there.

Yes, that’s right!  I’m engaged.  I’ve been dying to tell you all, but with so many wonderful things happening in the D.C. wedding world, there was just too much else to talk about!

I’ll keep you updated on my own wedding finds, especially what I’m learning as a bride-to-be — seeing things from a perspective different than that as a wedding planner or a wedding blogger.

Our wedding is scheduled for September — less than 7 months away, I know!  So if I am posting late at night, or sometimes into the following day, you’ll know why — things are pretty crazy!

Tomorrow we’ll kick off another exciting planning journey…a Green Wedding being planned by the D.C. Couture Wedding Consortium!  Stay tuned!

    The picture was taken at Barboursville Vineyards in Charlottesville. Beehive Events did the candles and floral arrangements.
