Haley and Tucker’s Fall Wedding

By Terry Meadows




Haley and Tucker's romance began in Hamilton, VA, where they first met through mutual friends. Tucker was spending the summer with his godparents in nearby Round Hill when he started hanging out with a college friend who lived in Hamilton. One day, this friend brought along Haley, a high school acquaintance. The connection between Tucker and Haley was immediate. As summer ended, they faced a choice: part ways for college or attempt a long-distance relationship. Choosing not to part, they committed to making it work. Six years later, they celebrated their union in Hamilton, just a mile from where their love story started.

"ALL-INCLUSIVE & ALL WEEKEND! We loved the idea of having everything being booked together in one place. This took a huge weight off of our shoulders and allowed us to focus on the fun aspects of wedding planning. Having the venue for the entire weekend also gave us extra quality time with all of our family and friends that we will always remember and cherish."

Zion Springs offers beautiful outdoor and indoor options for every event of the wedding weekend, so that we didn’t have to stress about weather.

"The accommodations were perfect! We had space for our immediate family and all of our wedding party (and their plus 1s) to stay on-site. Having everyone in the same place made it so much easier to get everyone together on time and ready to go! Plus, having all your favorite people staying in the same place at the same time is a pretty cool once in a lifetime experience."
