On the morning of her wedding, I walked into Ashley’s parents home where she and all of her gorgeous bridesmaids were preparing for the day and immediately felt the excitement building…the part of the day when the bride is getting ready is always my favorite, but somehow the fact that there were so many girls there ready to celebrate Ashley and her soon to be husband made it even more exciting! As Ashley slipped into her gorgeous BHLDN wedding gown, the room fell quiet as everyone admired how stunning she looked…I’ve never seen a more beautiful bride! 

As we were heading to the ceremony, the rain started to fall and somehow that just made the day feel more romantic and cozy…their guests gathered in a room at the Lodge in Colonial Williamsburg to watch Zach and Ashley say their vows in a beautiful ceremony…

Ashley and Zach are the kind of people that are well loved by everyone…which was so evidenced by all the people in their bridal party!  It was such an honor to get to be a part of this special time in their lives and to photograph their wedding day! They first met at Virginia Tech (Go Hokies!) over ten years ago and started dating a few years back…their wedding was a beautiful celebration of their friendship and love that has grown over the years and I’m so excited for them to be starting this new season of life together! 

I hope you enjoy of few of my favorites from their day! Sending a huge thanks to Lauryn for being my second shooter!
