"My dream lux wedding came to life with the team at JAE! We honestly did not want it to end. If you're planning a wedding - JAE is the way to go and 100% worth the investment. The communication, attention to detail, presenting to us the vision and design we had in our heads to a look-book was beyond. Everyone was on top of it.

About this Wedding Weekend
Rachel and Steve’s wedding weekend at Fleetwood Farm Winery in Leesburg, Virginia blended romantic garden design with sophisticated equestrian details inspired by the bride’s lifelong love of horseback riding. The celebration began with a vibrant welcome dinner featuring playful equine-inspired touches before transitioning into an immersive wedding day filled with lush florals, thoughtful hospitality, and meaningful family traditions. A greenhouse-style ceremony space was transformed with cascading greenery, airy white blooms suspended from the ceiling, and a vivid floral pergola in shades of pink, purple, and blue, while the reception featured floating clouds of baby’s breath and hydrangeas, custom bar details, and an equestrian-inspired escort display modeled after a jumping course. The result was a luxury Virginia winery wedding that felt enchanting, deeply personal, and effortlessly connected to Rachel and Steve’s story.
