Grown with love. surrounded by it.

On May 9, 2026, E&C gathered their favorite people at Shenandoah Woods for a wedding rooted in all the things that mattered most to them — family, friendship, nature, and one another.

Set against sweeping mountain views, their outdoor celebration was effortlessly personal. From flowers grown by C himself to long communal tables filled with the people they loved, nearly every detail felt connected to their story.

It was intimate. It was joyful. And it was entirely theirs.

the prep.

A wedding months in the making — in more ways than one.

As E&C spent the morning surrounded by family and friends (and taking pictures with their pup), the details of their day began coming together beneath the pavilion overlooking the mountains.

Among the most meaningful were the flowers. C had grown the blooms for their wedding himself, and seeing them finally arranged along the long communal tables made the celebration feel even more personal.

While our team brought the plans we'd built together to life, E&C got to settle into the excitement of a day that had finally arrived.

With the mountains stretching out behind them, E&C exchanged vows surrounded by the people who knew and loved them best.

There was something beautifully uncomplicated about it — an outdoor ceremony, an incredible view, and a community gathered together to witness two people choose each other.

The love surrounding them wasn't something that needed to be styled or staged. You could feel it.

Dinner under the pavilion. Dancing beneath the sunset.

Guests gathered around long communal tables adorned with C’s homegrown flowers, sharing a meal in a setting that felt more like one enormous family table than a traditional wedding reception.

As evening settled over the mountains, E&C danced in the sunset, slipping away for portraits in the fading light — where they apparently caught the attention of a few curious neighbors. A group of cows came running over to watch from nearby, creating the kind of perfectly unscripted wedding-day moment no timeline could ever plan. 🤍

The rest of the evening unfolded exactly as it should: surrounded by family, friends, laughter, and so much love.

E&C’s wedding was deeply personal, and bringing it to life meant working alongside a team who understood exactly what they wanted their celebration to feel like.

We're grateful for every creative partner who helped us turn months of planning into a wedding that felt relaxed, thoughtful, and unmistakably E&C.
