We had our wedding at Boxwood Villa on May 4, 2024, and it was completely perfect. Our family from out of town came a few days early to get settled and prepare, and there was plenty of space for us to spread out and also to hang out together. The beds were insanely comfortable and the accommodations were amazing. While we planned to have the ceremony on the front lawn, the rain had other plans and the team jumped into action and was ready to host our 30 guests on the spacious, gorgeous covered porch. The cocktail hour was held on the first level, and the beautiful house made for some incredible photo opportunities. The lawn was the most amazing place for the tent where our reception was held, and it was just as magical as everywhere else. Everyone commented on how perfect the venue was, including my family. I can't wait to visit again in the future to re-live these incredible memories. Thank you, Boxwood Villa!!!

We had an incredible experience having our wedding at Greenock Manor. We decided a small, 25 person micro-wedding was what we wanted and could afford and Chanel & Jim pulled it off flawlessly and threw everything they had into making sure our day was as magical as possible. From beginning to end Chanel made sure we knew what was happening, kept all our needs and requests in mind and created such a welcoming and beautiful atmosphere during the ceremony & reception. We recommend everyone we know to go here if you’re looking for the perfect wedding! My family kept saying how incredibly impressed they were with Greenock’s beauty and Chanel’s charisma and hostess abilities! Together Chanel and Jim make a dream team, Chanel orchestrated the whole event while Jim officiated and DJ’ed - it wasn’t easy either with a guest list full of non-English speaking family as well! The wedding suite was also the highlight of the night, it was so nice to just finally kick off our shoes in the end without anything to worry about and soak in the jacuzzi to melt our worries away! Chanel’s recommendations for vendors was the best as well, the catering (onsite next door!) was out of this world on top of it all!

Where do I even begin?… The Rixey Manor team was the absolute best. I just got married there this week and it was a dream come true. The venue itself is gorgeous but the team at Rixey Manor is something so special. Isadora and Grace took away all of the stress me and my now husband had. They made me feel so cared for and so important. They went above and beyond to make me, my husband & our families feel like royalty. Everyone kept mentioning to us how impressed they were at how professional and thoughtful Isadora and Grace are. Isadora made sure that I felt important and helped me with absolutely everything that day. She completely took charge of the day and all me and my husband had to do was show up. My 2nd dress strap kept breaking and Isadora was always there fixing it and she always did it graciously. I couldn’t have asked for a better group of people on my wedding day. The Rixey team is honestly a bunch of very special people who genuinely love what they do and they show so much love to the bride and groom. I also want to add that they were so attentive, caring and helpful when it came to my parents who both have a disability. I can go on for hours about how much I appreciate and legitimately care about Isadora and Grace. These people make dreams come true and my husband and I, along with our families are so grateful for them.

Absoluetly LOVED this venue! The moment I first stepped on the property, I fell in love and *knew* this was the place my husband and I were going to get married. Angela and her staff set everything up just the way I wanted it, and it went so smoothly! There are *so* many different options of locations to have the ceremony. Due Sorelle provides plenty of tables and chairs, and the staff will set them up for you - one less thing for you to have to worry about on your big day! I also loved that we had access to the barn the night before the wedding so I could set up the reception and not have to worry about finding someone to do that the morning of. Angela was a bit confusing to communicate with at times? Just some random things here and there - asking for details, scheduling things, and some either miscommunication or lack thereof. She was super sweet! I had just wished the communication process were a little smoother. Overall I loved Due Sorelle and would absolutely recommend it to anyone!

Nestled in the stunning Shenandoah region with a picturesque lake as its centerpiece, this venue offers a serene and magical backdrop for any couple's big day. But it wasn’t just the location that won us over. The beautifully constructed reception building was not only visually appealing but was also well-maintained and equipped with all the necessary amenities. Every corner of the property echoed the dedication and meticulous care of its owners, Brenda and Lynwood. Brenda and Lynwood's exceptional communication stood out throughout our journey. Their responsiveness to our questions and concerns was always timely, and their assistance in coordinating our wedding ceremony made the planning process seamless. One particularly memorable moment was when Lynwood, despite the rain, skillfully got a fire started for our fire ceremony, ensuring that even Mother Nature couldn’t dampen our special ritual. Adding to the allure of Brenwood Lake Weddings were the beautiful two cabins on the property. Conveniently located in close proximity to the main venue, these cabins were immaculate and provided a perfect staging area for us to prepare for our big day. It's evident that Brenda and Lynwood put their heart and soul into every aspect of Brenwood Lake Weddings. Their genuine passion for their work ensures that couples can truly experience their dream wedding. One of the most admirable aspects of our experience was the personal touch Brenda and Lynwood added to every interaction. Their guidance, combined with the venue's natural splendor, truly made our wedding day an unforgettable one.

We don't have enough incredible things to say about Guildford Farm. We paired our event with Katie's planning services which is a must-do; however, i'm separating the venue review from the specific owner's planning (she was stellar). The venue includes both the reception/wedding space, and also a home, and I am including both in this review. 1, VALUE- Incredible value for a full weekend and on-site lodging. The amount we and our bridal party saved in hotel cost more than makes up for the full-weekend fee, and what could possibly be better than hanging out with your favorite friends all weekend? If you're looking for winery-aesthetic with more freedom and lower cost than most C-ville winery venues, this is your spot. The best part is this reception/wedding space is a blank canvas and can be dressed up several ways, so you aren't cornered into a vibe (ex. don't have to go rustic, don't have to go glam, etc). 2, PHOTOS - gorgeous photo spots. They have a classic bridal suite, 2 balconies, mountain backdrops, field backdrops, a pond, and a home with so much vintage character packed into aesthetic rooms - three of which are themed by color which makes for adorable photos with 10/10 natural morning lighting. The venue includes a masculine den for groomsman photos. The arbor is built-in which also saves time and improves photos. 3, FUN - As of writing this review, the venue comes with over-sized games (ex. jenga, connect-4) which makes cocktail hour way more fun. It also comes with a bar which saves lots of for rentals. If you like fishing, there is a pond, and trails for hiking. There is also a sick basement space for groomsmen to stash away and hang out all day. If you want a "royalty" moment, there is an interior balcony from the bridal suite where you can go watch the party (or bridal party entrances) from far above. 4, PRIVATE - There is nothing around to cause any sort of noise disturbance or traffic or wedding crashers. There is shopping/target about 15 minutes away, so you can run out to get emergency items if needed. The stars at night are super bright due to minimal light pollution. 5, EASY - If you have anxiety about timelines being crunched, your reception ending too early, or forgetting your rings in your bedroom, Guildford is the best possible venue to battle those fears. The layout allows for easy movement between spaces which minimizes risk of timeline-derailment. While we didn't run into weather issues, I would say the venue can moderately flex for rain - they have backup plans, and while obviously any rain plan is not ideal, your wedding attendees wouldn't be soaked and you could still have a pretty ceremony/reception. It's also high on a hill, which means ground would be less muddy. Will return to the review to upload photos if Zola allows me to.

Seriously this was one of our best decisions in wedding planning. This venue has it ALL! We were looking for mountain views, outdoor ceremony with indoor reception, bring your own beer/booze (with hired legal bartender and correct licensing), bring your own food with no additional charge, on-site his&hers changing rooms, enough room for 100 people with a dance floor, and a cute cabin vibe. Not only did Faithbrooke meet all our requirements, it blew our expectations away! Faithbrooke is pretty much the only affordable, reasonable venue left in the greater DC/Shenandoah area that still is absolutely gorgeous and appears very high-end. The best part was Cort's kind, attentive, responsive customer service. He was truly incredible to work with, always easy to reach (which was so important), and worked with any special circumstances we had. They are more than accommodating here, so don't wait....seriously....book with Faithbrooke!!!!!

Words cannot adequately describe how grateful we are to Jessica Hewlett and her staff at The Cove and Fawn Lake Country Club for the perfect wedding reception for our wedding on Saturday, October 30, 2021! However, we want to share some of our thoughts. When we came to visit The Cove at Fawn Lake Country Club the first time in June, we knew immediately that this beautiful new venue was the perfect place for our reception. We were impressed with Jessica’s professionalism, calm demeanor, and attention to detail. From the tasting experience to the coordination and planning prior to the big day, Jessica led us through this stressful process with caring, respect, and understanding, while being the consummate professional. Once the big day arrived and we entered the venue, our jaws literally dropped and brought us to happy tears at how perfectly Jessica set up the reception. It was magical! She coordinated the events of the afternoon and evening with precision, leaving us with no worries and just being able to enjoy our special day. Our guests raved at how wonderful the food was as well as the service. They were also in awe of the incredibly beautiful venue and lakeside setting. We both looked forward to this day all our life, and Jessica delivered our dream Wedding reception. As we said, it was simply a perfect day none of us will ever forget, and we are incredibly grateful to Jessica and The Cove at Fawn Lake!

Kim Hayden was amazing to work with. Kim thought of (and remembered) every detail I told her. She was 100% on board with my vision and made it happen. I was able to use my own china which I had collected for my special day. We got married on the 10th Green, had the cocktail hour under the Pavilion and then our reception was in the Ballroom. The Glenmore had a champagne wall for my use, linens, lanterns, bars, and even candle holders. We added some of our own touches, but Glenmore is full service. From the prosecco wall, the the lighted hedge behind our cake, to putting our printed menus in the perfect spot. Our wedding was perfection. The views are phenomenal. The food was delicious - we served buffet style to make sue of my china and the kitchen did it all right. We had plated salads (tomato and mozzarella) then buffet steak, shrimp in grits, gnocchi with vegetables, roasted potatoes and asparagus. Everything was amazing. The Glenmore was so accommodating. They let us add a sparkling rose and rose to our wine choices - which felt so right with our theme. They had a hedge to put behind our cake table, which we added a personalized sign to, flowers and fairy lights. Glenmore let us have a photo booth in the ball room lobby, and we used their gorgeous farm tables to set out framed photos and favors. I had the absolute best time at my wedding. I highly recommend the Glenmore as a venue. It has gorgeous views, super friendly staff, they are diligent and 100% know how to throw a wedding. I have no regrets entrusted them with my special day and I have the absolute best memories. Thank you Kim and Molly!

It was evident that she genuinely cared about making the day special for our family. Her dedication and professionalism shined upon us the whole time. Because of Katie's expertise and dedication, we were able to relax and truly enjoy the day without any stress or concerns.

There are so many options to make your event exactly what you want it, and the staff is so great and easy to work with. Best of all- the fees go towards sending special needs children to camp.

The Inn at Vint Hill was the perfect venue for our wedding. Dawn and her staff were incredibly accommodating, prompt, and professional in their communication throughout the planning process, which was especially helpful for me organizing everything from overseas. They have a wonderfully family-oriented approach that made us feel welcomed and at home. The venue itself is spacious, romantic, and classic - the perfect backdrop for our special day. From assisting with planning and preparations to helping bring our vision to life, Dawn and her team went above and beyond. Their flexibility and attention to detail ensured our wedding day was seamless. I cannot recommend The Inn at Vint Hill highly enough for couples looking for a venue that delivers excellent communication, stellar service, and a simply beautiful, romantic setting to celebrate their love.

Blue Valley Vineyard And Winery was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding day. Their communication was always effective, clear, concise, and with a warm demeanor. The quality of their work and overall value was beautiful, modern, clean, inspiring, and offered an amazing view. Candee sent us personal pictures of the wedding and throughout the planning process the venue was open to our unique design plans. Meg was flexible and very calm and professional, along with the entire beautiful staff. The view is truly stunning and breathtaking, and the 100 goats and sheep that roam freely make you feel like you're in Europe. The owner and his wife are just lovely, and the wine is amazing! The only watchouts are: It's incredibly windy outside - be aware for veils and any outdoor installations. And, skip what we did with installing fabric draping in the main space -- it blocked the air conditioning and we were a little toasty. Not the venue's fault at all, but an oversight and a learning on ours! We couldn't have asked for a better venue for our special day. Thank. you so much to the entire Blue Valley Vineyard team.

Eastwood Farm and Winery was an incredible venue for our wedding. The communication style of the team, especially Emma the event manager, was incredibly prompt, friendly, and professional. From the beginning, they were responsive to our questions and provided beautiful photos that helped us envision our dream day, even though we were planning our wedding from across the country. On the day of, Emma was on site to manage the events and ensure everything went smoothly. The tent they provided as a rain backup was stunning and proved to be a lifesaver when we needed it. The views at the venue were breathtaking, and the separate event space away from the winery was perfect for our celebration. Out of over 20 venues we contacted in the Charlottesville area, Eastwood Farm and Winery stood out, and we're so glad we chose them to host our special day.

My October 2019 wedding at Trump Winery, more than, exceeded my expectations. It was everything I have ever wanted my wedding to be!! The venue itself is astonishing. We were married at The Chapel there and got ready at he Bridal Suite at the Barn (which was breathtaking in itself). The autumn views at the winery in Virginia was just the cherry on top. The event manager Coleen Larson was such a joy to work with & made the experience seamless. She helped me every step of the way, even with a short time frame we had to work with. We planned it all in less than 3 months. We have received so many compliments of our intimate wedding (25-30 guests) & the pictures and videos from it are just amazing. Virginia Schweninger, the harpist was also phenomenal. Together, we we picked each song to make my wedding special & it truly turned out wonderfully. I would do this over and over again, if I could. My husband was also very impressed. We could not have asked for more! Beautiful!!! just beautiful.
