Bohemian Fall Wedding at Valley Road Vineyards
Afton, Virginia
Congratulations to the Wildman’s!
Romantic, whimsical, bohemian; these are just a few words that can describe the Wildman’s wedding day. On November 4th, 2023, they tied the knot at Valley Road Vineyards in Afton, Virginia, just right outside of Charlottesville, VA. With perfect weather and a gorgeous mountain view, it sure was a dream wedding.
Brooklyn and Lane started their wedding day by getting ready in separate suites at Valley Road Vineyards with their wedding party. Brooklyn, alongside her bridesmaids, mom, and mother-in-law, stepped into her dress and began the final touches. The room was full of energy, with the girls listening to good music and sipping on some wine. It was the perfect way to relax before the day began.
The ceremony was set up nearby the main reception building, tucked away between the vineyard and the mountain that overlooks a lake. With tissues tucked into Lane’s pockets and Brooklyn’s lucky penny placed below her feet, the ceremony officially began.
To know Brooklyn and Lane is to love them. Their love for each other is unmatched, and it’s so beautiful to be in their presence. Lane’s reaction to seeing Brooklyn for the first time as she walked down the aisle was nothing short of amazing, and the huge smile on his face is the proof in the way he feels for her. The soft smiles, grazing of hands, and undeniable happiness throughout the ceremony, it’s truly one of my favorite parts of their Virginia wedding day.
It was so obvious that these two chose to have some of their favorite things and own sense of personality added into the day. For example, Lane’s cufflinks and the bar napkins included illustrated faces of their two husky babies, Koda and Kylo. With Brooklyn and Lane being huge Taylor Swift fans, they also made sure to include her in their wedding decor and important songs.
As the night drew to a close, Brooklyn and Lane’s wedding reception was full of magic. The laughter, music, and dancing created such a joyful atmosphere that perfectly led to their grand exit with sparklers. It was clear this night would be remembered by everyone in attendance.
To Brooklyn and Lane,
I want to take a moment and express how honored and grateful I am to have been a part of your special day. Witnessing and being able to capture the magic of the day was truly an incredible experience, and I am so happy for you both. Sending you all the love, congratulations!

HAVE YOU HEARD OF THE LUCKY PENNY ON YOUR WEDDING DAY?
There’s a sweet wedding tradition that says placing a penny in your shoe or beneath your feet during your wedding day will bring you good luck and prosperity. Brooklyn’s lucky penny was given to her by her Dad, and placed right in the spot she stood for the ceremony. How sweet is that???
DURING THEIR ROMANTIC PORTRAITS, WE TOOK THE GOLF CART TO THE TOP OF THE VINEYARD MOUNTAIN, AND THE VIEW WAS JAW DROPPING. AFTER GIVING BROOKLYN AND LANE A FEW MINUTES OF PRIVACY TO ENJOY THE VIEW, HERE’S WHAT WE CAPTURED!
Congratulations again to Brooklyn and Lane Wildman!!!
