Northern Neck Wedding at Belle Air

It was a beautiful summer day for a wedding at the Northern Neck of Virginia at Belle Air, Belle Isle. Bel Air sits at the mouth of Deep Creek in Lancaster, VA on a 33-acre peninsula of land. It’s known for its sweeping views of the beautiful sunsets over the Rappahannock River.

Valerie + Scott first met back in 2012 when she moved to Virginia while in the Air Force. They worked together on the flightline on Langley AFB. There was a broken jet for Valerie’s shop and Scott was out on the same jet running some tests for us on it. (The two still work together as VA Air National Guard members!) They started out as friends and grew over many years before they both realized it was meant to be!

One day after a work trip to Florida, Scott met with Valerie’s 7-year-old son and had a very important conversation with him. He asked if it would be OK if Scott married his mom. Then the two men in Valerie’s life BOTH asked her to marry Scott!

Tears were shed during an emotional First Look between the couple. I love when couples opt to share in this special tradition! They were able to show their emotions freely without an audience. Although, when Scott saw Valerie being escorted down the aisle, he was still a bit overcome with emotions and teared up a bit again. Valerie was walked down the aisle by her brother, who stepped in for the honors after the passing of their father. Valerie’s son read an excerpt from Winnie the Pooh about love during the ceremony, and her Maid of Honor also served as their officiant.

Congratulations to the happy couple! It was such a privilege to be a part of this season in your lives, and I send you the very best wishes for a happy future together!

Here are a few of my favorite images from their Northern Neck of Virginia wedding!
