Virtues Make Dreams Happen: Jordan and Ashley

Ashley and Jordan’s wedding day was a dream! The weather was perfect, despite the rain and hot weather leading up to their beautiful Sunday wedding. The location was gorgeous and cozy and they had local beers! Not only did they have local beer, but the food served at the reception was made with local ingredients as well. Most of their guests were from out of state, so they truly got a taste of Richmond while attending one of the most fun weddings I have planned for the 2017 season!

From the very start, Ashley and Jordan were a joy to work with. They were good at making important decisions, had a vision in mind and Jordan was such an involved groom! I mean, he even did the light installation in the courtyard. Jordan works for a company that does lighting for huge events and he was able to show off his work for his own wedding, how cool is that? Ashley’s main color was deep purple with hints of gold and neutrals. I love this color scheme for fall and it brought so much life to the courtyard of Linden Rowe.

Ashley and Jordan were so much fun! The most important thing to them was the commitment they were making to each other and that their guests would have a great time! I am certain that their guests had a fantastic time because I did!! It’s hard not to enjoy yourself when you’re surrounded by great people, an awesome line up of vendors, a phenomenal DJ and yummy food! Urban Farmhouse is the in-house caterer for Linden Rowe. They are a business that uses local ingredients to make all of their delicious food. Their team was great and their head guy was so much fun to work with. The fantastic pictures were taken by Don Mears and once again, I am amazed by his work. He even saved my assistant, Kaitlyn and I by getting us Cokes from down the street. I couldn’t forget about Paisley & Jade. Personally, I think there’s never a time or event when their stuff shouldn’t be there. It makes every occasion come together and look perfect! When I have fun at a wedding because of the awesome couple, great vendors and amazing guests, it makes me love my job even more.

Ashley and Jordan, thank you for trusting me on one of the most important days of your life. Your wedding was gorgeous, the party was fun (even for those of us working!!), your guests were so entertaining, the food was fantastic and working with all of your other vendors was a dream. Ashley, your bridesmaids were the sweetest and incredibly helpful. I could tell that they were all thrilled to witness you marry your best friend. You looked absolutely stunning and I never saw you without a huge smile on your face! Jordan, your groomsmen were hilarious and such gentlemen. You were so relaxed and the way you looked at Ashley the entire evening was so endearing.

I wish you both a life full of happiness, joy and so many adventures! Thank you for making the last Hannah Marie Events wedding of the season so perfect and fun! It was truly a wedding I’d repeat again.
