Mary and Travis’ special day at Brenwood Lake Weddings was essentially a masterclass in DIY charm. The couple made nearly every detail, including centerpieces made from old books, an atlas and postcard guide book, and succulent favors. Vivian’s Flower Shop also added accents of organic, textural flowers in a mix of bold and vibrant colors, which added to the handmade and totally romantic vibe. From the couple’s emotional first look in the woods to their gloriously sweet bicycle exit from the reception, Earthmark Photography did a fantastic job capturing every minute of this Virginia wedding!

Brenwood Lake Weddings, Stanley, Virginia
When we first visited Brenwood Lake Weddings, we immediately fell in love with it. The scenery is gorgeous, the facilities are extremely comfortable, and the venue owners (Brenda and Lynwood) are exceptional people and hosts. The log reception hall was the perfect size for what we needed and felt warm and homey. The spot where we had the ceremony was surrounded on three sides by tall trees, making it very green and peaceful. It was what we envisioned for our day before ever seeing this venue. We cannot recommend Brenwood Lake Weddings enough. It was absolutely amazing and exactly what we wanted. Brenda and Lynwood went out of their way to ensure we were happy every step of the way.

We really wanted both...
