Kathryn and Joe have lived in Northern VA for the past 8 years, and while they have always lived in Arlington, they knew when they got engaged that they wanted to get married in Loudoun county.  Throughout their relationship, they spent time on the weekends enjoying Loudoun county’s wineries, farms, and history.  Their ceremony was held at St. Stephen the Martyr Catholic Church in Middleburg, Virginia. This is the historic church that the Kennedy family worshiped in, while in Loudoun county for Jackie’s horseback riding and hunting.  They found the perfect reception venue when they came across Creighton Farms, with its beautiful views of  Loudoun Country rolling hills.  As supporters of local farms, Kathryn and Joe also looked for a place that sourced local produce and meats onto the menu.  The floral arrangements were designed to match with the rustic and romantic feel of the VA countryside.
