Sunday morning found a crowd waiting outside at the grand opening of the new Wegmans store at Hilltop Village Center in Alexandria.

The shopping center is located at Telegraph and Beulah. Store hours are 6 a.m. to midnight, daily.

Alexandria is Wegmans’ 86th store, the seventh in Virginia. The company’s first Virginia store opened in 2004 in Sterling (Dulles). Today, Wegmans has more than 3,600 Virginia employees, and that number will grow next year when it opens two stores in Richmond and one in Charlottesville.

Here’s a look at photos from the big event, posted today to social media (just move the blue cursor on the right up and down):
