Market at Grelen Charlottesville VA Wedding

Taylor and Daniel worked seamlessly as a team while planning their bespoke wedding at the Market at Grelen. “I loved conceptualizing the aesthetics, and Daniel handled the logistics,” Taylor shared. Their 600-acre nursery venue set the stage for a romantic, garden-inspired celebration. Taylor designed the letter-pressed invitations with hand-sketched branches, curated a rich palette of mauve, burgundy, and sage, and selected her cousin as the stylish ring bearer.

Their wedding day at the Market at Grelen was also filled with sentimental touches. Years before their wedding, Daniel had given Taylor a stack of letters to open at future milestones. She read the last letter just before walking down the aisle.

For their ceremony, the couple exchanged vows in front of a circular altar adorned with autumn foliage, hydrangeas, scabiosa, and garden roses. For their reception, they honored Daniel’s Korean heritage by wearing custom hanboks. And, for the wedding favors, their passion for woodworking inspired them to craft wood coasters for each guest. Daniel even built the gold-painted wooden frames that their florist used for their towering centerpieces.

The festivities culminated in a dazzling sparkler send-off, as family and friends cheered the newlyweds into their next chapter together.
