Meg + David

Meg and David managed to long-distance-plan a wedding in only a few months – and that alone is a feat.  They flew from their current home in Utah to beautiful Charlottesville last weekend for an afternoon wedding and incredible meal with family and friends.  Both families stayed the weekend at a great new B&B called The Inn at 400 West High.  “New” is a relative term, because the original construction dates back to 1900!  A great spot, full of charm, for a few getting ready shots…

David packing a snack for Meg, which must have been eaten mid-photo-shoot, when I wasn’t looking.  Way to be prepared!

 

Many thanks to my wife Nina, for helping cart the three of us around and get so many pre-ceremony shots that otherwise wouldn’t have happened!  Time for a “first look” and a series of portraits around Charlottesville – the Del, Wesley Mem, and the classic UVa Lawn…

On to the Rotunda!!!  (for the approximately 3 minutes we have left…)

 

We arrived at The Local, which had been seriously done up for the occasion by a friend of the family, Jean.  She doesn’t do this for a living – but she’s GOOD!

Guests file out onto the covered porch for the ceremony…

Meg and David retreated into the wine cellar after the ceremony, and I found them a little while later…

 

A local, gourmet, tapas meal followed the ceremony, interspersed with great conversation, catching up, and toasts by two old friends.

M&D – thanks so much for asking me to be part of your celebration.  I had a blast, and I hope you enjoy these pictures now and for many years to come!  Looking forward to the next time we’re on the same coast/in the same state 🙂
