Willow Branch Flowers 

5.0

  • Florist
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Nellysford, VA

Willow Branch is Step mother/daughter team, Cathy Coyle and Mary Pearl Monnes. Willow Branch has grown from a life long love of flowers, gardening, art, nature and all things beautiful. Backgrounds in fine art and horticulture enable us to visualize unique combinations of color, form and texture with consideration for each individual couple and season. We work closely with dedicated local growers to select the best material for our designs. Embracing seasonal selections allow the beholder to take forward a memento of their experience, reliving the beauty of a day again and again in the passing of seasons.

As with many women, I have been dreaming about my wedding since I was a little girl playing pretend. My husband and I also had a two-year long engagement, so I dreamed even more intensely about what everything would look like. What we couldn't have predicted was how unbelievably gorgeous everything would look, because our florals were so vibrant and fresh and beautiful. I have never seen flowers so bright and healthy as Willow Branch Flowers'. They really made everything else in our wedding pop, and I'm so happy I got my bouquet preserved so I can always have a piece of these gorgeous florals. They were so easy to work with, very responsive, and even stayed after the ceremony to help set up the reception. The arch was easily my favorite part, but every table and votive and even the flower girls' petals were absolute perfection. They are completely worth it and more. I HIGHLY recommend booking with them!

I am absolutely obsessed with The Market at Grelen! There is an endless amount of possibility for photos on the property. The accommodations for the day from start to finish are always so on point and breathtaking. The bride & groom suites have everything you need and sit back in a private location that makes it convenient to take pictures before the ceremony. Their options for ceremony locations are all you could ever ask for to invite all your friends and family witness your union & photographer's dream. The best part is the views that overlook the nursery with the Virginia Blue Ridge Mountains that are unmatched at golden hour. The Greenhouse Reception tent has the most beautiful light any time of day & the reflection of the lights above is truly so romantic. Everywhere you look on the property makes a great photograph. The staff is so friendly and just does the best job running the show. Every wedding I've had the opportunity to photograph there has just been top notch & has gone so smoothly! Definitely consider visiting this venue & booking your dream wedding at this spectacular location!

They provided all the tables and chairs we needed, and even set up beautiful tiki torches along the ceremony field. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful and well-executed wedding celebration. Highly recommend Montfair Resort Farm to any couple looking for a stunning, rustic-chic venue with an amazing team to work with.

  • Serves Nellysford, VA

Pronounced like Eye-lish, I'm a Charlottesville, Virginia wedding photographer. I've been full-time in the industry for 5 years, and I love getting to memorialize weddings for my clients. I have experience in both photography and cinematography, which gives my images a uniquely timeless feel. My experience in film enables me to be unobtrusive, allowing you to experience your day exactly as it unfolds.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you want authentic pictures that will make you feel all of the emotions from your wedding day time and time again, Eilish is your person. If you are reading this review, chances are you have already seen her work and know that it is stunning. I can't even describe the awe of opening our sneak-peeks and film photography. I don't know how our full gallery could get any better, but I know she will somehow continue to deliver way beyond our expectations. She is literally an artist and truly captures the magic of the day. I found Eilish when I was researching a potential wedding venue, and she had written a blog about that venue and had pictures from a wedding she had captured there. I found myself looking through her work of who were complete strangers to me and feeling as if I was part of the day. I felt like I was witnessing the raw emotions the couple was feeling and the little moments between the two of them that went unnoticed to the rest of the guests. Her work showed the candid laughs between the wedding party and the sweet embraces between the couple and their grandparents. I immediately knew I wanted all of that. I wanted all of those little moments captured that would have otherwise been forgotten. The real, unposed, raw moments. That is exactly what we got and we could not be more grateful. Witnessing love is seeing your wedding day captured by Eilish. On top of being wildly talented, she also is extremely responsive, has an awesome guide that answers any questions you could possibly have, and sends out a detailed questionnaire before the wedding day to make sure she captures any little details you want. She is also so sweet and just a great person. For our wedding she had a second shooter, Kelly Spaine, who was equally awesome and literally felt like a ride-or-die capturing all of the wedding picture requests from guests. Both Eilish and Kelly captured our day while also being extremely unobtrusive. We never felt like we were at a forced red carpet event that happened to be our wedding. They were THE best team we could have asked for. Eilish doesn't know it yet, but I have already made sure her website says she does family photos... because we need her for all of our life events. Long review short, if you want pictures you will be proud to pass down for generations... book Eilish.

Hi! I'm Kelly! I'm a wedding and portrait photographer based in Charlottesville, VA. My specialty is couples' photography - surprise proposals, engagement sessions, and weddings! I capture love stories all over Virginia and Washington DC! Everyone's story matters. That's why I believe it is important to let my clients know that I am an LGBTQIA+ and BLM ally.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Kelly was better than I could have imagined! She talked with me over a Zoom call at the beginning of planning our wedding and made a wedding timeline with me. Over the months of planning our wedding, we edited the timeline a few times, and I was so happy to have her experience and guidance in that since we were not hiring a wedding coordinator. Kelly was prompt with her responses to my texts and emails, and always professional. Our engagement session with Kelly was so fun, and she made us both feel comfortable during our first professional photo shoot ever. She delivered over 100 photos just from our engagement shoot! The day of our wedding, Kelly wore many hats. She acted as coordinator by keeping everyone in line and everything according to our timeline. She was also basically my maid of honor, fixing my dress, buttoning my gown’s sleeves in the car on the way to our ceremony, and swapping her shoes with mine for 30 minutes so my feet could have a break from my uncomfortable shoes before our first dance. I also appreciated her taking charge when needed. It took some stress off of me and allowed me to enjoy our big day without having to boss people around, haha. When it was all said and done, she delivered about 1,000 stunning photos of our day that we will always cherish, and even sent 100 printed photos as a gift to us. Kelly, THANK YOU for making our wedding day run smoothly, hyping us both up, making us feel comfortable and heard, and delivering such special memories in picture form. 3 So thankful we found you to be our photographer!

I got married at Hardware Hills in March 2025. It was hands down the best day of my life and I couldn't have picked a better place to get married. My now husband and I toured the venue in the Fall of 2024 while the new event space was in the process of getting built. Lori was amazing at keeping me updated on the progress and the finished product turned out amazing. I enjoyed working with the entire Hardware Hills team and would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for an event space. The bridal suite is so beautiful and easily accommodated my bridal part of 6 plus other members of my family that was getting ready there that day. The groom and his groomsmen enjoyed getting to relax at the cottage the morning of the wedding. Everything was so amazing! If you're looking for a wedding venue, definitely check this place out.

Hi there. I originally hail from Georgia, but am so happy to now call Charlottesville my home. When I'm not chasing down perfect sunlight, you can usually find me tucked away somewhere with a book, writing, enjoying life with my partner Charles, styling my 1920s home, or snuggling with my Frenchie pup, Finny.

Awarded Best of Zola
I don’t even know where to start. Audra was amazing, I don’t know how but we had crazy weather for both our engagement shoot (Canadian wild fires making it the smokiest day of a decade) and our wedding (hottest day of a decade at 100 degrees feels like 110). But Audra could not have been more amazing, she was so flexible and handled all the weather hurdles like such a pro. She was able to take all the photos we wanted and make us feel so comfortable while doing so. She captures such beautiful moments and was so patient when people were late or grumpy about the heat. She then handed us some of the most beautiful photos I’ve ever seen and made me feel so gorgeous and that I was back in the moment with my husband. I seriously love every photo so much I think she has such a gorgeous style that can take a simple moment and turn it into a work of art. I cannot recommend her enough.

We have a history of procuring the finest, freshest ingredients for the meals we create and serve, and access to those ingredients through relationships we’ve cultivated for more than 20 years.

Vickie and Mark of L'Etoile made our wedding incredible from the moment we first started discussions with them. They were incredibly knowledgeable, knowing all of the important logistics that will matter during the day, caring, ensuring that all guests (and the married couple) were fed, and flexible, making changes with us as we moved through the planning process. The food was delicious and our tasting with Vickie and Mark was probably the highlight of our planning process. They worked with various allergies and dietary restrictions and made sure that the night flowed seamlessly. I also want to highlight that Vickie is incredibly kind and supportive of her staff, making sure that they were learning great skills in a supportive environment. As someone who has worked food service and catering before, seeing this made me feel even better about our choice to work with them.

Our wedding day at Keswick Vineyards was perfect from start to finish - not an exaggeration. Everyone on staff made the entire day seamless, so we were able to truly just arrive and enjoy the day. When weather caused a hiccup in our day, our cocktail hour was moved under the tent no problem, drinks were brought to the wedding party while we waited out the storm, and we were able to keep to our schedule due to Cindy and team's fantastic planning. The venue itself was beautiful - the pool, house, and vineyard made the perfect photo backdrop, the carriage house where we got ready was the perfect secluded spot for our wedding parties, and I just truly didn't have to think of a single thing. The inclusions to the venue rental (tent, chairs, tables, etc.) made planning that much easier, along with vendor recommendations, and Cindy and team are true professionals who know what they're doing and will ensure your day is just about you and your love story. We were also lucky to have Cindy as our month of coordinator, which if you're lucky enough to snag one of her limited spots, DO IT! Going into our wedding, I truly felt so stress-free and like everything was out of my hands and handled. I truly cannot recommend getting married here enough, and it makes me so happy that we'll be able to share a bottle of Keswick wine together each anniversary. Just truly can't fit how wonderful this whole team and venue is in a single review. I am so grateful our wedding day was so special and perfect thanks to this place. This is a dream venue.

Trump Winery 

5.0

Charlottesville, VA
  • Venue
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $4,500

Trump Winery is the venue where your wedding dreams come true. Whether you’ve envisioned an extravagant event or an elopement for just the two of you, we promise to create memories that you and your loved ones will cherish forever. Our 1300 acre property is nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, conveniently located 20 minutes from downtown Charlottesville. Our grounds have picture-perfect rolling hills, lakes, and over 200 acres of vines. Trump Winery couples benefit from indoor and outdoor ceremony, cocktail hour and reception settings, in well-appointed, heated and air-conditioned, luxury venues. Less than a mile away from both the Barn & Pavilion and the Grand Hall is our Albemarle Estate at Trump Winery, a 26,000-square foot, 11 bedroom mansion that provides overnight lodging for guests and a honeymoon night option for couples.

Our decision to elope at Trump Winery in Charlottesville turned out to be the best choice we could have made. From the moment we arrived, the staff provided exceptional service, going above and beyond to make our day perfect. Every detail was handled with care, and we truly felt like their priority. The venue itself is stunning. The chapel on the property is a masterpiece, offering a level of intimacy and charm that we couldn’t find anywhere else. The fresco on the ceiling is absolutely breathtaking, a true work of art that made the space feel even more special. The large bay windows and balcony created incredible opportunities for photography, while the pews and altar added an elegant, timeless touch. Speaking of photography, we were thrilled with our choice of Aaron Watson Photography. He was a true professional, expertly navigating less-than-ideal weather to capture photos that exceeded all our expectations. The wedding package we selected was seamless and stress-free. It included gorgeous flowers, a kind and professional officiant, and every element we needed to make our day unforgettable. Our stay at the Albemarle Estate was equally exceptional. Between the pristine grounds, beautifully appointed rooms, and the privacy of the cabin we stayed in, the estate made us feel like we had our own little paradise. With only about 11 rooms on the property, it offered a level of exclusivity that was especially memorable for our New Year’s Eve wedding. We couldn’t have been luckier to host our wedding here. The property’s uniqueness, from the incredible chapel to the estate’s picturesque surroundings, far surpassed any other venue we explored. Additionally, the entire elopement package was an extraordinary value. For under 10,000, it included the venue, officiant, photographer, floral arrangements, two nights in the cabin, hair and makeup brought directly to us, our wedding attire, and delicious meals in the fine dining room. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, making our wedding as easy as it was magical. If you’re considering hosting your wedding at Trump Winery, we cannot recommend it highly enough. The experience was truly one of a kind, and we’ll cherish the memories forever.

My son recently got married at Earlyhouse, and the entire experience was nothing short of perfect. The venue was gorgeous. Everywhere you looked, there was a stunning backdrop for wedding photos. We were especially grateful to have the day-of coordinated by Katie, who worked behind the scenes to coordinate with all of us (coming from Florida, Texas, Maryland, Tennessee, & New York) and our vendors, she even managed my sons wedding timeline. It was evident that she genuinely cared about making the day special for our family. Her dedication and professionalism shined upon us the whole time. Because of Katie's expertise and dedication, we were able to relax and truly enjoy the day without any stress or concerns. Knowing that everything was in capable hands allowed us to be fully present in the moment, celebrating our son and new daughter-in-laws special day. I cannot recommend Earlyhouse enough-both for its breathtaking beauty and the exceptional staff who made our sons wedding a day we will cherish forever.

My entire bridal party and I stayed here my wedding weekend and it was fabulous! The house is so large so no one felt on top of eachother with multiple seating areas and common spaces all beautifully decorated Not to mention my cousin and I got to wake everyone up with our piano playing in the formal living room on the day of our wedding. The property is absolutely gorgeous and I felt like I was in a Nancy Myers movie while staying here. The landscaping is so well done and the massive kitchen was so helpful in feeding everyone while we were getting our hair and makeup done! Not to mention it was so great being able to have my dog there with me!

Jack is a longtime Charlottesville-Albemarle resident, and currently lives in "downtown" Crozet. He's been a full time photographer in Charlottesville's wedding community for 20 years. Specialties include surprise engagements, and weddings ranging in size and complexity from elopements with a handful of guests, to multi-day celebrations with many hundreds of guests.

Jack is so wonderful. From our first call, we knew that he would be our guy. He is so laid back yet still professional. It was easy for all of our guests to approach him for photos if they wanted. He kept an eye on the sunset and whisked us away for a few amazing shots. He quickly got the obligatory family shots out of the way, very painlessly. He even suggested another local place to go for our first look that was more private and so beautiful. He really looks out for you and what you want. Also, he works insanely quickly. He is really fast to reply to emails as well. You cannot go wrong with Jack. He did such a great job and helped us to relax. HIGHLY recommend him. Book him already!!

It's Time To Glam!

I feel so incredibly lucky to have gotten to work with Tai for my March 2025 wedding. I had never gotten my makeup professionally done before, and honestly had some nerves going into the process. I knew from pictures that I felt like Tai’s style fit what I was envisioning, and in the first minutes of meeting Tai, I knew I was in good hands. She is such a kind and bubbly person, the trial felt like catching up with an old friend. Seeing myself in the mirror both on the trial and on the wedding day, I felt truly beautiful and confident. I felt like me, but elevated. On top of that, she also helped to cover a scar that I got on my back from an unexpected procedure a month prior to my wedding. I felt so insecure about it, and she was able to cover it with ease. As for the look itself, it lasted all night, through happy tears and a hot dance floor. One of the best wedding vendors out there, would definitely work with her again!!

Wow.. I genuinely don’t even know where to start with Avonlea. My husband and I are still riding our wedding high after our September wedding here. The staff is so kind and so helpful, the entire process was honestly seamlessly! From the moment my husband I stepped on property for our tour, Debbie and Clint made us feel right at home. They sat down and asked questions about us and our vision and you can tell they genuinely love what they do. Our wedding day went so smoothly thanks to them and their team, and the grounds!! The grounds are just absolutely stunning! I love and will cherish this venue for life! I also cannot stop gushing to everyone about Connie, our coordinator. She was honestly the best and cares SO much about her brides and their day going smoothly.. Seriously, Avonlea and their people really make you feel at home!

To put it simply, we love planning weddings. There's something magical about taking every little detail of such an important occasion and bringing them together to create lifelong memories for our couples and their families. ​ Based in beautiful Charlottesville, we are an experienced wedding and event planner team dedicated to making your dream wedding come to life. We don't want any couple (or their families) to have the stress of managing all of the event details on the wedding day. After all, the guests of honor should be enjoying every moment!

Working with Nadia was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very first meeting, she was kind, professional, creative, and organized. Every detail was handled with such care and we truly felt supported throughout the entire planning process. She understood our vision perfectly and elevated it in ways we never could have imagined. Her communication was always prompt, and on the wedding day itself, everything flowed wonderfully. We even tried out a new layout/timeline for our venue, and she nailed it! We were able to relax and fully enjoy the day knowing she was handling everything. Our wedding was beyond anything we dreamed of, and we owe so much of that to Nadia and Mary Elizabeth Events. If you’re looking for a planner who is organized, creative, organized, open, and genuinely invested in making your day perfect, look no further :)
