A Lavishly Romantic Lynchburg Wedding at Bella Rose

Savannah and Cole exchanged vows on a sun-drenched July afternoon in Lynchburg, Virginia, with both their ceremony and reception held at The Preserve at Bella Rose. As the newest addition to the historic estate, The Preserve offered an airy, light-filled setting that opened seamlessly to the surrounding trees and meadows, blending the serenity of nature with the elegance of modern design.

Petals lined the aisle as Savannah made her way to the altar in a flowing off-the-shoulder gown, her billowing sleeves adding a soft, romantic touch. Cole, in a deep emerald suit, stood beneath a rustic wooden cross draped in ivory roses and cascading greenery—a striking focal point that framed the moment with natural grace. As they exchanged vows, rose petals drifted through the air, blessing their first kiss and marking the start of a joyful celebration beneath a canopy of twinkling chandeliers.

The reception unfolded in the heart of The Preserve, where refined rustic elegance met thoughtful design. Entwined Events brought the space to life with dramatic black chargers layered over navy linens, floating candles in glass cylinders, and eucalyptus garlands flowing across live-edge wooden tables. A whimsical ice cream sandwich station by Eat at Rookies delighted guests with handcrafted scoops served between warm, fresh baked cookies.
