“I was SO happy to get be able to get my wedding date here! The planning that went into our wedding was astonishing. Isabelle and her team blew my mind with everything that was done for us. They had every last detail planned and it was amazing to see it all put together. I would have paid triple for what we paid for the planning and venue, it was that good. I never thought I needed a planner for my wedding but HIRE A PLANNER. It allowed us and our family to completely relax and not have to worry. Not only the planning but the venue, WOW. It was so so beautiful and convenient. Everything is on one property so there wasn’t extra traveling for our guests. And we stayed in the house the days prior to the wedding which eased my mind and allowed me to settle beforehand. I can’t say enough about how stunning our wedding was and how meticulous the planning was. Book it before you regret, I would do it over 100x.”

  • Select services
  • Indoor

Amherst is a community arts center and event space. It is a hub for the arts, small businesses, and community groups.. The facility can be leased for community events, musical performances, parties, weddings, and more. The old Amherst Baptist Church was the home of that church's congregation until 2005. Its sanctuary was constructed in 1882, making it the second oldest religious structure still standing in the Town of Amherst. Starting in 2012, a grassroots group took the initiative to save a historic structure in the heart of Amherst, VA, and to re-purpose it as a creative community center. Located in the middle of a vibrant village, the goal was to provide a gathering place for events. The class architecture and details of this circa 1880s historic building is sure to compliment any theme. The antique checkerboard flooring adds a touch of eclectic flair. The building also features two separate dressing/staging areas as well as a full catering kitchen.
