Fall Wedding at Riverview at Occoquan

After nine beautiful years making friends together, traveling together and getting a dog together, Colleen and Derek brought everyone to celebrate their wedding at the stunning Riverview at Occoquan. Their sheepadoodle even joined them during their first look and portraits for a day that felt uniquely them!

When these two first reached out to me, Riverview at Occoquan was a new and gorgeous venue that we couldn’t wait to tour together and plan for the big day. With the help of some absolutely phenomenal vendors (listed at the end!) everything came together perfectly for a wedding that will wow and a reception that will blow you away. Scroll slowly, all the way to the end! Trust me, it’s worth it!

Their wedding was in the beginning of October so they enjoyed perfect weather, warm gold flourishes throughout their details, beautiful wine colors in their gorgeous decor and amazing views for the entire day.

Have a look at this perfect wedding day and imagine how amazing the guests and the couple must have felt!
