Virginia House in Richmond

Virginia House is an estate overlooking the James River outside of Richmond, Virginia USA. The Tudor Style manor was constructed by Alexander and Virginia Weddell and was completed 1929 as their private residence. Alexander served as the United States ambassador to Argentina from 1933 to 1939 and to Spain from 1939 to 1942. The house and grounds are now owned by the Virginia Historical Society and used as a venue.

When our team was putting together everything for this editorial wedding feature, we wanted to showcase both the dark moodiness inside the house and the incredible grounds outside.

We tried to capture a story with this shoot. A nontraditional bride is getting ready and we’re moving through the day with her, seeing her different fashion looks and moments with her groom inside and outside of the house. We shot in several different rooms including their library and dining room with its hand painted wall mural. I very much wanted to marry the historic feel of the house with unique and modern wedding decor. The table design is the perfect example with its pampas grass centerpiece and West Elm table settings. No one had ever done a table design inside the house and this is not your regular wedding table and we wanted it that way. This was about creating something that would make couples stop and think about their wedding design elements.
