On a crisp fall day, amidst the vibrant hues of October, Jenny and Christian exchanged vows in a celebration that perfectly encapsulated the beauty and warmth of the season. Held at The Estate At River Run near Richmond, VA, their wedding was a breathtaking blend of elegance, romance, and autumnal charm.

Red tones danced throughout the wedding, from the lush roses adorning every corner to the tantalizing hors d’oeuvres, and even the shade of Jenny’s lipstick. These rich hues added a touch of passion and sophistication to every detail, complemented by accents of gold and navy blue. Jenny stunned in a long-sleeve lace wedding dress, a perfect reflection of her chic style and the season’s cozy elegance. The gown’s intricate detailing matched the autumnal vibe flawlessly, while still exuding timeless beauty and grace.

The couple captured some unforgettable moments by the Pool House and the lush greenery of Summer Court, posing on the chessboard amidst laughter and love. These candid snapshots perfectly encapsulated the joy and excitement of their special day. The bride and her bridesmaids also captured memorable moments on the second floor of the Marble Foyer at the Loft Gallery after they all got ready together. Posing amongst the details of large columns and winding arches, the girls resembled elegance in their gowns. The Estate offers a variety of shooting locations both indoor and outdoor that capture the timeless, unique feel of the property.

The ceremony took place on the picturesque Bluestone Terrace, offering a breathtaking waterfront view of the James River. Against this stunning backdrop, Jenny and Christian exchanged heartfelt vows, surrounded by their closest family and friends. True to their hearts, Jenny and Christian couldn’t forget to include their beloved dogs in the festivities. The furry companions added an extra layer of love and personalization to the celebration, making it truly complete. The Tuscan Ballroom provided a warm and intimate setting for the reception, with its brick walls and opulent gold detailing. Guests were treated to a feast for the senses, with delicious food and desserts like vanilla bean cupcakes that delighted every palate.

As the night came to a close, friends and family gathered by the front of the mansion to bid Jenny and Christian a fond farewell. With heartfelt goodbyes and wishes for a lifetime of love and happiness, the couple embarked on their new journey together, surrounded by the warmth and love of their nearest and dearest.
