Love was in the (cold) air yesterday.
In a most perfect ceremony and celebration my dear friends Thad and Frances got married.
After a gorgeous Saturday Charlottesville woke up to a cold drizzle on Sunday morning, perfectly cozy weather for a small, fall wedding. 😉
Upon arrival at the incredible Belle Haven we were greeted with hot tea and small bites.
I left my camera at home and left most of the snapping up to the very talented Sarah Cramer but I did manage a few random phone pictures.
The Belle Haven house is from the 1880’s! Â Amazing details…
And Frances did amazing with the wedding details as well, check out the table assignments! Â She scoured antique shops to find a skeleton key for each guest.
We’ll miss these two when they move to Colorado at the end of the month!
Tate and I were honored to be included on the short guest list (less than 40).  I loved the intimacy of the ceremony and celebration!  I heard every word of the vows!  It  was so intimate in fact, that Thad stood up at lunch and said a quick, off the cuff, passage about every single person in attendance, it was a sweet and personal touch.
Gorgeous pictures! Thanks for sharing.
Love that tea set!
Isn’t it amazing?
Oh darling Faith!
This is soooo sweet! We were so grateful to have you and Tate there supporting us. It was all so magical. I love your iphoto shots. It’s still like a dream to me.
Love Frances
Tell us more beautiful bride! Did you guys buy that tea set? Everything was SO perfect and gorgeous. I definitely cried during the ceremony…several times! xooxoxoxo
I did collect all those tea cups from different antique stores around the area (as with all the plates, serving ware and silver). It was one of my favorite parts of wedding planning. I’m a bit of a pirate – I love treasure hunting 🙂
Some of the grander pieces (champagne buckets, large vases, silver trays etc) were borrowed from my Mum and a number of the antique tea cups were sent to me as a gift by my “fairy godmother”
All the silver was so gorgeous! I thought that it belonged to Belle Haven!
such a sweet post, love it! Frances is my fave yoga teacher in town and she will be missed!
