Romantic Winter Wedding in Downtown Asheville, NC
LOCATION
Rhubarb | Asheville, NC
COUPLE
Chowning & Kevin
Cozy, intimate and family vibes for Chowning, Kevin and their girls Madelyn and Reese.
Rhubarb’s private event space is *the* best spot for this moody and romantic winter wedding. With about 20 guests in attendance, the space was perfect for a laughter-filled ceremony + candlelit dinner + a small dance floor to boogie off the delish food. Rhubarb is located in the heart of downtown Asheville; our mountains are stunning but might I suggest that our downtown is a dreamy and fun place for a winter event!

We began with getting ready + details at Chowning’s hotel room at The Foundry. Chowning got ready with her daughters - Madelyn and Reese.
Kevin got ready with his buddy next door in a different room.
Chowning, Kevin and I slowly walked from The Foundry to Rhubarb for the ceremony. The sun sets much earlier in the winter so we captured all of their portraits along the walk as the sun set.
Kind Words from the Bride:
“Chelsea is incredible. A rare mix of creative, beyond professional, kind and just plain on it. She was the first decision I made when planning our wedding and her recommendations, vendors she shared, tips and other advice made our wedding what it was well beyond the photography. But to the photography, she effortlessly captured the day of and the magic while letting us simply be us. The photos are beyond what I could have expected and so was Chelsea.”
Sweet words from the bride about the photo collection:
"Oh we are just beyond!!!!! They are stunning, sweet and so intimate. Everything and more."
Flanked by the kiddos, Chowning and Kevin exchanged vows in the private event space at Rhubarb. The ceremony space was then transformed for their beautiful reception dinner - keeping everyone indoors throughout the event which is extra nice during the winter!
