Ashley & Andrew’s Wolfe Heights Wedding

Ashley and Andrew’s wedding day felt like a storybook romance brought to life, and nothing captured that timeless feeling better than their Super 8 film. The soft grain, warm hues, and vintage charm of the Super 8 added a layer of nostalgia to every moment, from their emotional vows to their golden hour portraits. As the film rolls, you can feel the authenticity of their love and the elegance of their celebration, creating a cinematic memory that truly stands the test of time.

Ashley and Andrew’s wedding at Wolfe Heights Winery was a celebration of timeless elegance with personal touches that made it truly unique. Guests arrived in formal black attire, creating a sophisticated atmosphere that matched the couple’s vision. Andrew stood out in a green velvet suit, a bold and stylish choice that perfectly reflected his personality.

The ceremony took place beneath a greenery-covered arbor, surrounded by the natural beauty of the venue. Bridesmaids wore deep emerald dresses, complementing Andrew’s suit and creating a cohesive color palette. Ashley wore a lace gown that exuded both grace and romance. Together, they created a picture-perfect scene that blended effortlessly with the serene surroundings.

Andrew’s craftsmanship was a highlight of the reception. He built the champagne seating chart himself, a sleek black display adorned with elegant calligraphy and accented by fresh white florals. Tables were set with black napkins, white linens, and minimalist greenery, striking the perfect balance between modern simplicity and classic sophistication. Large, illuminated letters of their last name lit up the reception space.

The celebration continued under the stars, where string lights illuminated the dance floor. Guests enjoyed heartfelt toasts, delicious cuisine, and an energetic dance party. Glow sticks added a playful touch to the evening, creating vibrant moments on the dance floor. Every detail reflected Ashley and Andrew’s thoughtfulness and love for their family and friends.
