Ellen & Max

November graced the grounds of King Family Vineyards for the wedding of Ellen and Max in Crozet, Virginia. Thoughtfully planned by Cody Smith Weddings, the day unfolded at this stunning winery venue nestled between the scenic Blue Ridge Mountains—the perfect backdrop for a crisp autumn celebration. The dual-pillar floral arch and rolling green hills set the stage for their heartfelt outdoor ceremony, where the bride dazzled in a flowing white gown and the groom looked dapper in a classic black tuxedo.

​

After the ceremony, guests gathered around an elegant reception setup inside the rustic barn event space. Tables were adorned with lush floral centerpieces in warm autumnal hues—vibrant oranges, deep burgundies, and delicate roses, crafted by Blue Ridge Floral. Candlelight flickered across the setting, creating a cozy and inviting ambiance. The couple added personal touches with their custom-designed stationery and a thoughtfully curated menu of seasonal delights, while Carpe Donut delighted guests with sweet treats to end the evening on a sweet note.

​

As the sun dipped below the mountains and a lively band filled the air with music, Ellen and Max took to the dance floor, hand-in-hand, surrounded by the love and laughter of their friends and family. With an eye for capturing both sweeping landscapes and intimate moments, Tom Daly Photography preserved the magic of their day—the glowing vineyard views, the candid joy, and every moment in between.
