    River Farm, in Alexandria, VA, is situated on the Potomac River with one of the most expansive views of any property in the area, making it the perfect place for a garden wedding.   Listed with Fairfax County as a 1920’s gentleman’s home, the grounds are one of George Washington’s original five farms and the history of the area is extensive.  A perfect combination of historical significance and beauty, I simply adore River Farm. For the ceremony, the two most popular sites are at the Blue Rose Arbors in the formal gardens and then at the top of the steps leading down into the meadow...

    I'm a little behind on my posts, its been crazy and there is so much I want to share! A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of visiting the oasis in Carmel Valley known as the Holly Farm. Let me tell you after walking the grounds I was ready to move in! I love Carmel Valley, and have the honor of being part of many weddings in the area. But this property is special, downright magical! There are two houses (one an amazing refurbished adobe and one the quintessential surfers cottage complete with outdoor shower) as well as a honeymoon cottage straight from the islands. This property is all about es...

    The bride & groom are getting married on a farm in North Carolina.  They wanted to focus on natural elements & have a love for birds.  Wanting to continue the tone they set with their save-the-date cards, done by themselves on a vintage typewriter {love that!} they chose one of my favorite images I use - the thrushes.  The pink & brown added to the vintage feel & the peony add a touch of romance.  I know the wedding will be lovely.  Congrats to Nola & Josh!   ...

                         I simply adore the packaging on the Belvoir Farms drinks. I've used them on a couple of shoots. The Elderflower drink is particularly lovely. I remember having it the first time I went to London.Reminded by the lovely Eat Drink Chic, via A Summer Picnic Wedding....

    Maggie and Steven are lucky enough to get married on her family's farm, so they chose a rustic, but still chic pallette of kraft brown, chocolate, green, and ivory. The covers are stitched with chocolate thread in a freehand curve to accent the circle cutout.August in Missouri...hopefully these fans help to cool the guests down so they can enjoy what I'm sure will be a beautiful wedding. Congrats and best of wishes to my "farm" couple. (I secretly nickname every bride by the way...always something nice though)...
