Planning an al-fresco dining experience for your wedding day can be nerve wracking. The unknowns of Virginia weather made this outdoor reception at Potter Cider wedding even more of a success. Tucked in the Charlottesville mountainside, the Fall colors and art deco details were brought to life. Everything about this day was perfectly curated to fit K&T’s style. From the outdoor al-fresco dinner, historic chapel in the woods, to the geometric bridal style dress, rings, and most unique floral arrangement I’ve ever seen. Kelsey and Tyler focused on the people who mattered most and eliminating the formalities that felt overdone. I loved exploring Potters Cider and the best weather for an unstuffy day in the cool Fall breeze.
