Why Savannah and Stephen Chose Belle Haven Country Club for Their Wedding
One of the reasons Savannah and Stephen chose Belle Haven Country Club was its versatility. They wanted a venue that could accommodate their energetic celebration while also providing a stunning backdrop for their ceremony and reception. The spacious grounds and beautiful setting were perfect for their fall wedding, with just a touch of rain to add a little drama to the day—something that didn’t phase this couple in the least!
Located in Belle Haven, Virginia, this venue offers a combination of indoor and outdoor spaces, which made it ideal for a couple looking to bring their vision to life. The lush greenery surrounding the property, paired with the sophisticated interior design, created a beautiful contrast that allowed them to make the most of both the ceremony and reception spaces.
The couple was able to host their ceremony in an outdoor garden area, which provided a beautiful, intimate setting surrounded by trees and natural beauty. The reception took place in the club’s elegant ballroom, where the guests could continue the celebration as the energy of the day carried on into the evening.

A Fall Wedding with a Party Atmosphere and a Touch of Rain
Savannah and Stephen’s wedding day had the perfect fall vibe—just a slight chill in the air, with a touch of rain adding some drama to the outdoor ceremony. But instead of letting the weather get in the way, they embraced it and kept the energy high throughout the day. The party atmosphere was contagious, and their guests were ready to dance and celebrate with them from the moment they arrived.
The combination of a relaxed, fun celebration with just the right amount of excitement was exactly what this couple wanted. Savannah was jumping out of her skin with excitement, and Stephen looked at her with awe and love as they danced, laughed, and partied the night away. The joy and energy in the room were palpable, and every single guest was having the time of their lives.

Personal Touches and Family Traditions
This wedding wasn’t just about the venue—it was also about the people who made it special. Savannah got ready at her childhood home, and the morning was filled with love, laughter, and excitement. The feeling was one of an old-school getting-ready party, with no nerves or jitters—just a group of people who were there to celebrate Savannah and Stephen’s big day. That personal touch helped set the tone for the entire event, making it feel like a true celebration of their love.
The color palette for the wedding included beautiful shades of green and floral patterns that were personal to the couple. Everyone picked out their own dresses, which allowed each member of the bridal party to feel like themselves while still fitting into the overall theme of the day.
One of the most memorable parts of this wedding was how much fun the couple and their guests had—everyone, from the bride to the band, was fully immersed in the celebration. The band even came off the stage to join the crowd, and the couple didn’t hesitate to join in, showing just how much they valued having fun and enjoying every moment together.

A Perfect Exit to Cap Off the Night
One of my favorite moments as their wedding planner was helping Savannah and Stephen execute their wedding exit. Often, the exit can be tricky to coordinate—getting everyone in position, timing the photos just right, and making sure it all feels seamless. But we worked together to make sure it was perfect, and the result was one of my favorite photos of the day. The moment was beautiful, capturing the love, excitement, and joy that the couple and their guests shared throughout the night.
