Romantic September Wedding at Valley Road Vineyards

Jasmine and Akil's romantic September wedding at Valley Road Vineyards in Afton, Virginia, was a heartfelt celebration of love and natural beauty. Set against the rolling hills of the Charlottesville countryside, the vineyard’s lush landscape and serene ambiance offered an idyllic backdrop for their day.

The celebration embraced rustic vineyard charm with weathered wooden archways adorned in cascading greenery and rich burgundy blooms. Guests, dressed in vibrant saris and traditional attire, gathered to witness the couple's vows. Moody bouquets of navy and plum roses mingled with delicate white florals—an enchanting fusion of cultural elegance and seasonal color.

Planned by Faded Poppy, the reception unfolded within the vineyard’s whitewashed pavilion, where cascading bistro lights cast a celestial glow over tables draped in soft lavender linens. Rustic crossback chairs and minimalist wooden lanterns nestled in verdant greenery created a warm, understated sophistication. A semi-naked cake adorned with vibrant fuchsia dahlias stood as a striking centerpiece, echoing the day’s rustic-chic charm.

Amelia B. Photography brought a refined and artistic lens to the day. Their thoughtful, cinematic storytelling beautifully captured the celebration’s quiet moments and vibrant energy, preserving Jasmine and Akil’s love with grace and sensitivity. The floral arrangements by Sola Wood Flowers added depth and texture throughout, their handcrafted blooms lasting beyond the day itself. A flavorful menu by Lehja Richmond delighted guests with bold, aromatic dishes, while DJ Geeta Jhaveri kept spirits high with a lively mix that filled the dance floor from start to finish.

As twilight settled over the vineyard and music and laughter echoed into the night, Jasmine and Akil’s celebration unfolded as a seamless blend of timeless tradition, heartfelt details, and unforgettable joy.
