| Ready for a Wedding |
When we visited Belle Grove last weekend, it was set up for a wedding. The festive decorations were in contrast to the history of the property, which was once part of a Civil War battlefield. This is in Middletown in the lovely Shenandoah Valley. |

The wedding setting seems to give some peace to the valley. Lovely photos.
ReplyDeleteit is interesting to have that as a wedding site, now.
ReplyDeleteWonderful preparations.
ReplyDeleteThe bullet holes are quite a memento of a darker past.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely setting minus the bullet hole. Tom The Backroads Traveller
ReplyDeleteThat would be interesting to visit...but I'm really not so keen on the idea of a wedding taking place on a battlefield...historical or not.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a cool place for a wedding.. Beautiful scenic shots..Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteBullet holes from battle and a wedding are quite the contrast--but a sign that beauty can come from ashes. What a lovely place.
