Rachel & Jackson | Backyard Wedding in Virginia | Blue Ridge Mountain Wedding

With a mountain backdrop, tons of homemade tables, incredible florals, and a “Hobbit Feast” - they hosted hundreds of their friends and family in their own back yard for their wedding.

When I first met up with Rachel & Jackson to discuss their wedding day what seems like so long ago, I knew it would be an unreal wedding - from Rachel being inspired by Jane Austen for the details, and then wanting a Hobbit Feast for their dinner, and the wedding taking place surrounded by mountains. It seemed like every email I got from them was “oh, and by the way, we’re also adding THIS awesome thing to the day”.

Not only was the wedding day stunning as far as the colors and the decor - the two of them were a freaking blast to hang out with. The perfect blend of gorgeous and absurd.

And then they ended the night with fireworks.

There’s really nothing else you could possibly want from this.
