A quirky, playful, wildly authentic celebration | Wedding at Old House Vineyards

Описание: A quirky, playful, wildly authentic celebration at Old House Vineyards**

From closing down The Jasper on their very first date… to a snowy proposal under the Northern Lights in Finland… Ashley & Matt have always done life their own way. And their wedding day was no different.

85 of their favorite humans gathered in Culpeper for a day that blended romance, faith, craft cocktails, anime poses, pumpkins, and pure joy.

✨ A dockside lock ceremony sealing their promise forever
✨ A “Reserved” ribbon honoring Ashley’s father
✨ A surprise bouquet dedication to the Mother of the Bride
✨ A birthday cake surprise for her brother
✨ Parent piñata instead of parent dances (iconic)
✨ A fishnet bouquet toss (wait for the boyfriend’s reaction 👀)
✨ Pokémon theme song re-entry
✨ Choreographed first dance
✨ Champagne tower (because why not?)
✨ Espresso martinis + emo/metal dance floor energy to close the night

Every detail was intentional — from ribbons tied at each place setting to table names instead of numbers, a photo seating chart reveal, lounge vignettes, pumpkins for a whimsical fall touch, and a glowing lantern exit.

Ashley calls Matt steadfast, affectionate, thoughtful.
Matt simply calls Ashley perfect.

But what you really see here? Two best friends who make each other braver, calmer, stronger — and who laugh loud, sing in the car, and choose each other daily.
