Trump Winery Wedding | Charlottesville, Virginia

Jess and Charlie didn’t just have a wedding, they had a wedding extravaganza! Residing across the country, Jess and Charlie decided to have a blow out weekend and have their bachelor/bachelorette parties, rehearsal dinner, welcome party, and wedding all in one weekend to make it easier for their friend and family who were traveling from throughout the country. The entire wedding party stayed at the gorgeous Boar’s Head Resort in Charlottesville.

The festivities began on Friday with the bachelor and bachelorette parties. The guys started their morning at the Birdwood Golf Course while girls decided to have a relaxing day by the pool. On Saturday, after a quick rehearsal, the welcome party kicked off with friends and family celebrating throughout the night.

Sunday morning, everyone got ready and headed over Trump Winery for the big event. For their details, Jess included a small foam finger to surprise Charlie, a note to their first date. After a first look with her mother, sister and bridesmaids, Jess headed down to the Chapel for her first look with Charlie.

Trump Winery sits on nearly 1,300 acres surrounded by stunning views of Blue Ridge Mountains. Nestled among a lush grove of trees, the Chapel features checkerboard gray and white marble floors, stunning glass windows, and a hand-painted ceiling featuring “The Story of Virginia” by internationally renowned artist Graham Rust.

After their adorable first look, the couple headed back up to the Grand Hall for bridal party photos and family formals before getting ready for the ceremony. The ceremony, held in the chapel was intimate and hilarious as Jess had everyone laughing historically during her vows. Immediately following the ceremony, everyone gathered outside the chapel for a group photo to commemorate the day before heading to cocktail hour.To finish off their wonderful day, Jess and Charlie had a firework sendoff while Long Live by Taylor Swift played in the background.

Congratulations to the newlyweds!
