Picturesque tented wedding in the Blue Ridge Mountains

Samantha and Desmond’s wedding in Somerset, Virginia, was a truly unforgettable event. When the couple discovered The Market At Grelen, they immediately knew it would be the perfect venue for their big day. The idyllic grounds are located in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains and offer breathtaking panoramic views of the enchanting landscape. It was here, surrounded by the natural beauty of the mountains, that Samantha and Desmond said ‘I do’.

On the wedding day, guests were welcomed into a space filled with lush greenery and soft pastel flowers. This natural setting, combined with subtle decorations, created an enchanted atmosphere that perfectly matched what the couple had envisioned and planned with Brousseau Events.

One of the most special moments of the day was the “First Look”, where Samantha and Desmond saw each other in their wedding dresses for the first time before the actual ceremony. The couple had chosen to exchange their personal vows privately before saying the traditional vows in front of their guests. This private time allowed them to take in the emotional significance of their big day. This moment, captured in the magical images of Kasey Powell, will stay with them forever.

After the wedding ceremony under a beautiful tree surrounded by loved ones, guests were ushered into a see-through tent where a cozy yet romantic atmosphere awaited them. The fairy lights and pastel-colored table decorations, an enchanting mini dessert buffet and a lively dance floor made this night an absolute highlight. A light rain shower just before dusk quickly turned into a fiery sunset.
