Lana & Garrett | The Dominion Club

When I think of weddings that truly reflect the heart of a couple, Lana and Garrett’s day at The Dominion Club in Richmond, Virginia instantly comes to mind. Their story together began back in high school and bloomed into a bond built on care, laughter, and values. They’re both so easygoing, kind, and the type of couple who make everyone around them feel comfortable (I felt that since my first conversation with Lana!). Together, they love to cook (Lana has a soft spot for sweets and chose the best cake ever for their wedding), spend time outdoors, and enjoy the simple, joyful moments together.

Lana and Garrett’s October wedding day was everything a fall celebration should be: timeless, elegant, and full of happiness. Their color palette of dusty rose, gold, and ivory set a romantic tone that perfectly matched the warm fall light coming inside the windows at the venue.

The day started with excitement at both the bridal and groom suites! Lana looked STUNNING in her Maggie Sottero gown from Urban Set Bride, while Garrett and his groomsmen laughed together on the balcony of their suite overlooking the golf course.

Instead of a first look, the couple chose to share a first touch, an emotional moment before the ceremony that allowed them to connect without seeing each other. It was one of those moments that reminded them what the day was truly about (it was hard for me not to cry!).

Their ceremony at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church was beautiful along with their family and friends, followed by a celebration that blended cultures and joy in the most beautiful way. One of the most memorable moments was their Jordanian grand entrance, led by the drummers from ZEO Events. The energy in the room was electric!

Lana also surprised her mom with a bouquet dedication instead of a bouquet toss. I LOVED this tribute that left not a single dry eye in the room.

The Dominion Club: Classic and Timeless!

Located in the heart of Glen Allen, The Dominion Club was a perfect location for Lana & Garrett's wedding with its timeless architecture. The couple chose the venue for its open spaces and stunning views of the golf course, and it did not disappoint. A huge shoutout to Desirae Miller, the coordinator who helped us SO much on the day driving the golf cart, making sure everyone was at the right spot at the correct time.

We used the outdoors locations (including the gazebo!) for portraits and and lighting that day was out of this world!

With 130 guests in attendance, the space felt both lively and intimate... exactly the kind of atmosphere that reflects Lana and Garrett’s personalities. The night ended with a sparkler exit in front of the venue.

From our first conversation, Lana and Garrett told me how important it was for them to have their day captured naturally, with emotion, connection, and those small moments that often go unnoticed.

As their Richmond wedding photographer, I wanted to honor their story by capturing both the elegance of their details and the depth of their relationships: from Lana’s first look with her dad, to Garrett’s moment with his mom while dancing, to the laughter shared with his two best men, Reece and Tyler.

Their gallery truly reflects the spirit of their day and I left The Dominion Club that evening feeling grateful, not just for the beauty of the day, but for the warmth of two people who clearly bring out the best in one another.

Lana and Garrett, thank you SO much for giving me the honor to photograph your wedding day. I wish you both a lifetime of happiness and prosperity!
