Hey y’all! Happy (early) Thanksgiving! We are so excited to be spending an intimate holiday with our close friends & family tomorrow. This week we are blogging a LEGIT stunner wedding. LIKE STUNNING. Our girl Hannah tied the knot back at the end of September and she, along with us have patiently waited for these images. We knew that Hannah’s design, venue, and choice in photographer was sure to result in incredible wedding images.
Hannah got married at the beautiful Irvine Estate & House Mountain Inn located in Lexington, Virginia- just a little west of Charlottesville, VA. Her wedding took place right in the heart of fall and definitely had some bomb linens and florals to help bring her Big Day to life!
Alright- here they are, Ryan & Hannah Newell
Hannah went with a beautiful boho vibe as she brought out some burnt orange & rust tones to pair with her greys and tan shades. We are so excited for her that this day turned out to be everything she could have asked for- especially since she was a COVID bride too! Let’s take a look at her tables so you can see just how awesome these images really are.
I love to look at the reception space as a whole & then zoom in on the individual table details.
All guest tables were set with a natural charcoal linen, and rust polyester napkin tied perfectly in a knot. For her head table Hannah went with a majestic khaki linen, a beautiful boa of greenery and some wooden chargers & burnt orange velvet napkins with a menu fold.
Can we all just take a second to admire this ahhhmazing head table? I mean the design that went into every single inch of this reception space, even we weren’t expecting! That chandelier- we’re obsessed.
Even her guest tables were beautifully done & paired perfectly with the overall feel of this wedding from the napkins to the venue itself.
Up close on the guest table you see just how beautiful everything is altogether.
We love when our couples want to deck out the head table just a tiny bit extra than the additional guest tables. One of the best ways to do that is upgrade the napkin and throw in a charger plate- and Hannah killed it with this setting.
I couldn’t finish this post without including one of Hannah’s beautiful bridal shots. This is personally one of my favs- trust me it was hard to pick! And I know what you must be thinking, yes she looks this good on a normal Tuesday.
Hannah we are SO happy for you and extremely thankful to have you on our team! Hope that when you see this post you’re pleasantly surprised that this entire blog is dedicated to you (:

xo, Waterford!
The guest tables were kept simple and elegant with just a hint of color in the napkin. Loving the knotted napkin fold- that has just been taking over this year & really just vibes with the boho aesthetic they were going for.
A little up close & personal shot of the long tables gives you a good example of how less is more. Really just keeping things simple and letting all the small details work in their own way is the way to do it sometimes! Don’t worry- we’re still a fan of over the top too!!
One image we’d like to see more of is our couples’ faces as their see their reception space perfectly set up. All the time that gets put into working with every vendor to get all the things just right takes work on both ends so seeing the satisfaction from the end result is always a must have! If you walked into your reception space looking like this wouldn’t you just be STUNNED.
Zooming in just one last time. I mean how cute is this table setup. We are obsessed with all of these neutral colors just coming together so effortlessly.
Congrats Sam on your amazing wedding day! You were a beautiful bride and we are so happy you chose us to help share in this big day! Cheers to you and the hubby!

Moving into the reception space you’ll find an incredible table set up with all of the elements coming together perfectly.
Steamed to perfection you’ll see our majestic silver that is so beautiful with just a hint of texture as you can see the threading of the fabric just barely. The tabletops were dressed with silver beaded chargers and the brand new etched velvet mauve napkins. And to give it the perfect finishing touch is the mauve chiffon runner with cute little sprigs of greenery from one side to the other.
Our design meetings are fun- getting to meet with our clients and help them bring what was once an idea to life is always rewarding. But wedding day is the BEST part. Going from our small showroom design table to the full venue, all the tables out, with all the other elements is a dream come true for us all.
And would ya just check out these party favors? How cute are these customized hand sanitizers?!
Looking at the cake table you’ll see the exact same linen used here as with the napkins. We didn’t think this fabric could get any more stunning until we saw it in a full tablecloth.
What a perfect way to end this blog than with another amazing sweetheart table. This floral is so full & beautiful with the most amazing colors all together really giving us all the feels. I love the extra billowing of the material down at the bottom which just adds to the romantic effect.
Paired here you’ll see our matte satin taupe, etched velvet blush with a stunning french floral blush napkin. It’s so fun to see everything come together after starting off with just an idea in your head.
Remember, the trick when picking out the best linens is to make it all complement each other. Not everything has to be the same, or match your bridesmaids’ dresses perfectly. Sticking within the same color palette and vibe is the best way to make your entire wedding day flow effortlessly.
We just adore how these colors & patterns just bounce off one another for a perfect tablescape don’t you? If you’ve been wondering about pairing patterns- welp here is your sign to just GO FOR IT.
Here is a better shot to capture the table from further out. We are just totally digging these vibes!
Moving into the house you have the tables paired with gold chiavari chairs, gold acrylic chargers, and some of our favorite napkins- Natural Belize Nutmeg.
Aren’t you just loving this!!! We got all this done & moved inside in a matter of 2.5 hours- all in the middle of the pouring rain but as her guests you would have never thought this to be anything other than the original plan.
Even the back patio could probably serve as a backup ceremony space. This weekend we chose to use this as an overflow for guest tables & the cocktail hour space.
Told you guys these views were just stunning!! Seriously, if you’re still in need of a venue, this might be calling your name. 
A HUGE congratulations to Megan and Josh on their incredible wedding day! Nothing was going to get in the way of celebrating you two! We hope this day was everything that you have ever imagined. We hope you both have the most amazing life together!
Debating on a head table? Well, you may have just gotten your answer right here. We love the sophisticated & elegant look that head tables bring and when topped with a stunning boa of greenery it doesn’t get any better than this! 
Wondering what else you can add to your reception space to add a more romantic feel? Sashes, and chiffon sashes woven through a chiavari chair is just everything! This may or may not be our favorite tie when it comes to giving chiavari chairs that extra oomph!
Adding on a sweetheart table is a great way to make sure you and your new spouse get to spend that extra quality time together on what seems like such a fast paced night! After getting a chance to chat with all of your guests it’s such an intimate way to give you all that time just for the two of you!
And who doesn’t love a BOMB cake table shot, amirite? Having a beautiful linen, or in this case, paired with a show stopping floral arch is the perfect way to elevate that cake table shot & ensure some beautiful photos when it comes time to cut the cake! We love a good cake table photo that just captures the beauty of all the things- linens, cake, floral, it’s just PERFECTION.
And when it comes to table decor, nothing is off limits. Whether you’re dramatic & show stopping with the centerpieces or simple but breathtaking, you’re sure to get some beautiful photos of what was once an idea, but now a reality!
Congrats to Jeff & Paige! Thank you so much for letting us be a part of your amazing wedding day! We wish you love & happiness for the rest of time!
We are just loving the simplicity and natural look Haley and Brandon were going for with their linen choices. 
We just love a good place setting shot, don’t you?? Keeping it super simple and trendy with the menu card and the cute napkin fold in a knot. Such a small detail can make all the difference!
If you’re looking for beautiful and whimsical sweetheart table ideas, then you have to check out our voile! This is a super delicate and flowy material that is sheer and can billow down to the floor giving an extremely magical feel to the sweetheart table.
We weren’t kidding when we said they are probably one of the most happy & beautiful couples! Like just look at this photo. Couples this happy and in love make our job so much easier and gives us butterflies every time.
