Real Jewish Weddings | Richmond, VA

Lauren and Harrison created a warm and inviting wedding ceremony and reception: it warmed the hearts of all who attended and invited them all into their new lives as husband and wife. Lauren was inspired throughout her wedding planning from the blogs and magazines she frequented, as well as Pinterest. She settled on a silver and black theme, letting the exquisite decor of the Empire Room at The Jefferson Hotel, speak for itself. White flowers with a touch of color were selected to complement the overall look as well as the bridesmaids’ slate dresses. Favorite details from the wedding day include the tablescapes: from the centerpieces and menus to the event lighting that accented the details, the tables were the focal points of the reception room.

In looking back, Lauren says the ceremony was her favorite part of the day, which was officiated by a rabbi who was also a family friend. As for advice for future brides, Lauren shared with us, “Make sure you have fun with the planning and don’t let yourself get stressed out over little details. I think that everyone focuses so much on small items, but the guests remember the big picture and will probably never notice the small things that may not go as you planned on the day of the actual event. I enjoyed every minute of planning the wedding with both my family and Harrison’s family.”

Mazel tov, Lauren and Harrison!
