This Black Tie Wedding at The Wool Factory Has Flower Grandmas

Hello, black, gold, and white color palette! Jessica and Austin's elegant celebration at The Wool Factory in Charlottesville, Virginia was the stuff of classic dreams. From custom A and J monograms to beautiful flower grandmas, these two lovebirds threw a personalized classic black tie wedding that celebrated their love with sophistication and style.

Photographed by Xiaoqi Li Photography and planned by Emerald Events By Nilsa, Jessica and Austin wanted to prioritize time and experience with their loved ones on the wedding day, so all of the details were around that theme including an interactive "best buds" seating chart with white roses, merch with their wedding logo, and the cutest motorized toy car for the youngest kiddo to go down the aisle in. Later on at the reception, the bride surprised her Dad during their father-daughter dance with a baseball glove so they could play catch like they used to when they were little as well as her mom having a special dance with each of her sons-in-law.

With tall elevated floral centerpieces decorating the tables and bridesmaids in gorgeous black dresses, everything was a mix of classic and fun. Even the cake passed the vibe check! While pretty bow elegance on the outside, Austin and Jessica's tiered black and white wedding cake boasted a party on the inside with a funfetti flavor as well as being surrounded by mini cake shooters of different kinds!
