Nothing brings us more joy than searching for then incorporating vintage and antique items into the design of our home, gardens, and parties. Joseph hails from El Paso, Texas and Rob from Williamsburg, Virginia. Life has brought us to a lovely location on the banks of the York River where our guests may be seated in a 1730’s chair while sipping a cocktail from a 1930’s glass. Our home, Riverwood C

ottage, is decorated with a unique blend of antiques and collectibles that span the past 300 years. We often pair treasured, centuries-old family heirlooms with kitschy castoffs. We might be described as traditional with a twist. Our shop reflects our wide-range of personal interests and tastes. Our combined experiences in the fields of education and retail coupled with our diverse cultural background provide special perspective and knack for locating fun, interesting pieces. Welcome to Riverwood Cottage; Come in, relax, and enjoy shopping.

Happy 13th Anniversary to the greatest! It is rather ironic that Joseph plans magnificent weddings with elaborate timelines, decor, and extensive guest lists, yet when we were married, it was just the two of us and officiant in Washington DC-- no photographer, no flowers, no reception (that day-- our celebration brunch followed in October) and no legal marriage in Virginia or the United States for EVERYONE. It was just the two of us deciding to face life together in love!
HERE is to many more years of cat dadding, traveling, gardening on an arid river bank, dinners and drinks with friends or on the sofa watching TV, DIY projects, amazing parties, and general fun and shenanigans! Thanks for being a nurse this year. Thanks for soothing anxiety, and most of all THANKS for choosing me! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I love you bunchismo!

We know that the common daylily is often vilified by gardeners and appears on so many Do Not Plant lists, but we love their color and indomitable spirit. This little guy grows in a crevice between our entrance steps and paved surface. He blooms early because the paving retains heat! As we come and go it is a welcome reminder that summer is almost here! 🧡🧡🧡
