We understand that some Virginia couples may prefer to only hold a one day garden wedding ceremony and a short reception.
Perhaps you are on a tight budget, live locally or don’t expect any out of town guests.
This is a great option for a Sunday morning garden wedding. After exchanging vows in the garden the new couple can invite their guests to enjoy a Sunday Brunch buffet. Served under the shade of the ancient Linden Tree or perhaps an early afternoon BBQ complete with yards games. or a simple wedding cake complete with champagne toast to the new couple. What ever your idea of the perfect event, we will do our best to realize your vision.
