I first met Grace + James at Margaret + Wesley’s wedding last year… but I didn’t know them then!  I was so excited when Grace and her mom contacted me about photographing their wedding because I already knew their family was awesome.  And in family tradition, they were getting married at Grace Covenant Presbyterian Church in Richmond which is just stunning!

They chose Grace’s grandmothers house for their backyard reception, beautiful corals for bridesmaid dresses, and Grace’s mom is a florist so you know the bouquets were perfection!  Oh, and the food.  I can’t adequately describe the food because it was so amazing!  I included lots of food images in this post because there were so many choices and they were all delicious.  There were little stations set up all over the backyard where chefs were making the food fresh!

Overall, the day was full of elegance and grace (no pun intended!).  It was such a relaxed and fun atmosphere.  Everyone danced the night away despite it being over 90 degrees outside at night, and they ended the night by showering Grace + James with rose petals.  A perfect day!
