River Farm Wedding Album - Allison & Ben's Wedding Story

River Farm, headquarters of the American Horticultural Society, and formerly part of George Washington's property, he gave it the name River Farm, is a lovely setting for a wedding any time of year. I've given you a glimpse already of Allison and Ben's perfect fall wedding day. Now, here's their album design; the day's story unfolding in pictures.

River Farm Wedding Photography - Congratulations Allison and Ben!

Allison and Ben had the most gorgeous fall day for their garden wedding at River Farm in Alexandria, Virginia last Sunday. River Farm has long been one of my favorite gardens and as the home of the American Horticulture Society, there is always something blooming. This time of year the wild flower meadow is still beautiful and I was so excited to be able to use it as the backdrop for some of the wedding pictures - and one of those ended up being my favorite picture of the day!
I have the most fantastic wedding clients! It was such a pleasure to be Allison and Ben's wedding photographer and to capture the wonderful celebration they had with their families and friends on their wedding day. For more pictures, be sure to watch the slideshow in the following post too.
First, the sparkling rings:
The bride's beautiful gown with all those buttons!
Allison's Dad sees his daughter as a bride. Always a sweet moment.
Simply stunning bride!
Beautiful fall colors for the bouquets and the front door.
All the lovely ladies:

And the men had their moment to shine too.
The ceremony was held in the garden. Presenting Mr. and Mrs.!
The beautiful couple.


This is my favorite! I just love the textures and colors in the fall meadow.

The tented reception was warm and inviting.


And to top off the day, an amazing sunset!
