An indoor wedding ceremony at Oakhaven can be just as colorful and romantic as saying “I Do” outdoors. This photo shoot, featuring one of our favorite floral designers and two of our signature add-ons, shows just how to bring an indoor wedding ceremony to life at Oakhaven. And since the terrace adjacent to the Grand Reception Hall is just steps away, we had to share its beauty as well.

Bringing Color, Greenery, and A Touch of Surprise

An indoor wedding ceremony in front of Oakhaven’s soaring stone fireplace provides a variety of backgrounds. Of course, there’s nothing like a fire in this signature focal point. But flanked by large windows overlooking the countryside, it’s more than just a cold weather feature. Here, the stone lends a stately contrast to the colorful floral designs by The Blossom Shoppe of Danville, VA. Oakhaven’s ferns, available for rent, fill in and tie it all together beautifully. And at the end of your ceremony, why not celebrate with Oakhaven’s newest decor rental — indoor Sparktaculars!

The Terrace: One of Oakhaven’s Outdoor Ceremony Sites

While Lionel Faith Photography was here, we couldn’t resist a few images of the Grand Reception Hall Terrace. This stone terrace, one of our outdoor ceremony sites, showcases incredible views of Oakhaven’s 1400 acres. Couples love taking their vows in front of the wrought iron pergola. The sunsets from the terrace are simply stunning. And with the string carnival lights, it’s the place to dance the night away.
