Downtown Richmond Wedding

A perfect wedding weekend with a beautiful couple! We kicked of the celebrations with dinner and a welcome party at the luxurious Jefferson Hotel in Richmond the night before, Anne and Westin’s wedding day the next day brought sunshine and beautiful weather.

Westin’s family is from Dallas, and what a treat it was to have so many family and friends there from half way across the United States! As one of the groomsmen put it, Westin and his family are “the definition of class” and I can say that about Anne’s family too. Westin is reserved and steady, Anne is energetic and sweet, and they truly are perfection when they are together. Anne’s dress was a family heirloom! It was her grandmother’s wedding dress from the 1950’s, worn by her mom in the 80’s, her sister 6 years ago, and now Anne. Wow!

The reception was held at the Commonwealth Club, and the ceremony at the stunning St. James Episcopal church in Downtown Richmond.

Scroll through some highlights from the prettiest wedding day!

Grandma’s face when she saw the dress. I can’t imagine how surreal it is to see your wedding dress worn by your granddaughter, more than 60 years later!

Photos of the wedding dress, worn 4 times by 3 generations. What an heirloom!

A live band brought the energy!

Halfway through the dancing the cowboy hats came out….because, Texas! 🙂

Anne & Westin, it was a joy to be here. May your marriage build on the strength of your family, friendships, and community. It is truly inspiring.

xoxo!!
