It was a hot summer day for this Williamsburg Winery Wedding. Rylie and Don shared much love on their wedding day, and their friends and family were there to celebrate their union.

They met while at work during a meeting, and over the course of a year, they built a friendship. Their friendship flourished, and after dating a while, Don proposed to Rylie at a garden in Georgetown, as it's one of their favorite spots to spend time together. Afterward, both of their families joined them for a celebration brunch.

Williamsburg Winery is in the historic town of Williamsburg, Virginia. This gorgeous vineyard and winery is also a wedding venue that brings charm with its iron chandeliers, gold Chiavari chairs, and two stone fireplaces. Plenty of vineyards around the property make for a beautiful backdrop for just-married portraits!

Both the bride’s and groom’s grandmothers shared Bible verses during the ceremony, and Rylie carried one of her grandmother's vintage handkerchiefs. In a thoughtful gift for Don, Rylie gave him customized cufflinks with their initials and wedding date engraved on them. Rylie shared a touching first look with her father, and as he turned around to see her, he broke down, and tears of joy streamed down his face. A sweet moment like this was one of many throughout their wedding day.

At their wedding reception, Rylie's father and sister gave the sweetest toasts, which were emotional for everyone. Don's best man also shared a speech that brought tons of laughs from everyone, as he spoke about the many times he was mistaken for Don when they were younger.

Being complimented by our couple's families is one of the best feelings in the world. Don and Rylie's parents and grandparents were some of the most warmhearted people we've worked with.

The newlyweds shared their first dance to the song, "Love Me Tender." As they danced together, it was impossible not to feel the love between them, and it was clear they were both on cloud nine.

Rylie & Don, we absolutely adored working with you guys and wish you all the very best for your marriage and a lifetime of happiness together!
