Our wedding at Sweeney Barn was nothing short of amazing, unique, and unforgettable. From the moment we first visited the venue, we were captivated by its rustic charm blended seamlessly with modern elegance. The barn's architecture, with its stunning exposed beams and spacious layout, provided a breathtaking backdrop for both our ceremony and reception. The staff at Sweeney Barn went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect. Their professionalism and genuine care for making our day special were evident throughout the planning process and on the big day itself.

Milton Ridge was an amazing venue for our wedding. The connections, experience, and package deals they offer are super convenient and reduce the stress of planning for the big day. It is a beautiful and accommodating location that really caters to your idea of the best wedding. Shout out to Meaghan for her work in coordinating, especially day-of. If you are looking for a venue and long-term coordinator that takes care of all the minute details and plans everything for you, you might want to hire an additional "month of" planner and coordinator. Be sure to read through all of the offerings to avoid missing details and add-on costs. Also, be aware that Milton Ridge is not necessarily "in charge" of some of the vendors they utilize. The location is private and beautiful. Bridal and groom suites are comfy and well appointed in case you forget the small stuff like hangers and speakers. The coordinators were also communicative and flexible after the wedding when we realized we left/lost some items. Overall, a great experience and lovely location.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do I start with Fox Meadow Barn and the owner, Dixie?! From my first tour, Dixie was incredibly accommodating. Due to the venue being 2 hours away from me and the fall being peak season, I needed to tour during the week around 7:00 PM. Unfortunately, my husband couldn’t make that tour and I was unable to FaceTime him. Once again, Dixie accommodated us and let us do a self-guided tour the day before Thanksgiving. Just like me, my husband immediately loved it and wanted to call Dixie to book. We needed to come home and look at some more details before moving forward and Dixie never once pressured us. I reached out to 100 venues across Virginia, DC, and Maryland, and many people were focused on sales and made me feel like just a number. Dixie made me feel like family! After booking, Dixie provided me with a ton of resources — a day of timeline example, a spreadsheet with vendors for everything imaginable, photos, and videos. No matter how many times I emailed or texted, Dixie responded within hours or less. She made being a DIY bride and planning my own wedding a breeze! In fact, because of Dixie and how much I enjoyed planning my wedding, I am strongly considering entering the wedding industry part time as a planner or coordinator. I cannot recommend Dixie and Fox Meadow Barn enough! I was not a barn bride until discovering Fox Meadow Barn. It is absolutely gorgeous!

If you are searching for somewhere to have the perfect outdoor wedding, look no further than Comus Farm. Lauren and Kara truly pulled out all the stops to make our wedding day unforgettable! In 2023, my husband and I were looking for wedding venues: we were very specifically looking for someplace that would not require a lot of decoration work, since we were planning the whole event ourselves. As soon as my husband and I arrived at Comus Farm, I said “this is it, I want to book this place.” The farm is located in pleasant countryside, and the farm itself has a very beautiful entrance through trees and sunny fields: many of our guests commented on how this made the drive from the off-site ceremony to the reception at the farm very enjoyable. We toured the rose garden, outdoor dining and dancing pavilions, and the large barn, all of which are airy and open, making it feel very welcoming. The farmhouse Airbnb was spacious, clean, and well decorated. Lauren and Kara were both so kind, and they provided a lot of information with us in our first meeting: we signed the contract about a week after seeing the place. Lauren and Kara used AislePlanner to help us get going with our wedding planning. The website is easy to use, and the provided checklist covered literally every single tiny detail you could possibly need to consider for the planning journey. I was especially pleased with the seating chart map, it made it so easy for us to track guest meals, stage table set up, and communicate special requests. It also prints out the layout really nicely if you need to send it to your catering company. Our wedding party stayed at the farmhouse Airbnb the night before and after the wedding. Everyone had a really fantastic time, there was more than enough space for the girls to get ready in the AM, and the food provided was delicious! During the reception, my grandparents enjoyed their dinner in the kitchen so they could get some quiet time and rest, but they were still close enough to the wedding so they could say hello to the guests and listen to the speeches happening in the dinner pavilion. I also cannot say enough about how much we appreciated Lauren and Kara’s thoughtfulness throughout the planning process and on the day. They patiently answered so many of our questions, and they allowed us to come by three separate times to see the farm and meet with our vendors. They coordinated the vendors without a hitch, and we didn’t have to worry about a single thing on the day of the wedding. Kara drove the two of us and our photographer out to more remote areas on the farm to get some portrait shots. Lauren coordinated some fun photos with the alpacas, which was a lot of fun! Comus Farm is truly a beautiful spot to have a wedding, complete with a team that made our day perfectly stress-free. I’ll definitely be looking for any other reason to book with them in the future :)

The Briar Patch was wonderful! So so beautiful and accommodating. They really worked with us to make sure we had everything we needed and wanted. They made getting our friends and family a place to stay so easy and we’re so quick to answer any questions or requests we had. My bridesmaids and I needed breakfast very early on Saturday morning and they brought it right to our room, right on time before serving the other guests in the main dining room. If you are looking for a beautiful venue that accommodates out of town guests and allows the bride and bridesmaids to stay together the night before the wedding, look no further!

Pinstripes North Bethesda 

5.0

North Bethesda, MD
  • Up to 500 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,000

Whether you are hosting a wedding reception, ceremony, bridal shower or bachelor(ette) party our dynamic ballrooms and private event spaces provide an upscale yet relaxed space for your special day. We host truly unique events and deliver sophisticated fun through combining our from-scratch Italian-America menu with the classic games of bowling and bocce ball. Let our talented event team work with you on a customized event to suit your personal style and help you bring your dream wedding to life to create a perfect day that you and all your guests will be sure to remember!

Pinstripes made for an incredible day. We cannot thank them enough for their space, and help through the day. This year we worked with Pinstripes, setting up the rooms, food choices, and many of the other logistical challenges of planning a wedding. We were able to work closely with our contact at Pinstripes and she was quick to answer any questions and concerns we had. Organizing the event, with varying guest counts - with people dropping out and surprise additions - Pinstripes handled it amazingly and their communication lines made it feel easy. The space on the day-of was amazing, we had a wedding of 100 people and we were able to mingle around the library, as well as the outside terrace. Bocce ball was available and used by the children, which I think was very helpful to guests with children. Their ballroom is beautiful and we loved the tall windows surrounding the room and the pictures we have already look incredible. Something people are still talking to us about is the food. The food at Pinstripes is amazing. I don't quite know who the chef is but they are doing an amazing job. I feel like Pinstripes very well might be one of my favorite restaurants in the area. A benefit also of picking Pinstripes is that their wedding food menu is largely the same as the restaurant menu so you can go back at any point to re-try your wedding meal again - something we definitely plan on doing. Following the reception, which went incredibly thanks to the wedding coordinator from Pinstripes we had an hour of bowling with all of the lanes reserved for us which everyone loved. I feel like bowling was a great way to involve everyone in an afterparty. Even though it's our own wedding, we definitely don't think we'll ever be to a better one (unless it's also at Pinstripes!). Besides everything else, the location was amazing too. Being steps away from a hotel (and blocks from additional hotels) made it easy for our guests. There multiple options for post-post wedding party locations. We saw a farmer's market open on the day of our wedding that we heard some of the guests visited. We'll be happy to make our return to North Bethesda for many date nights, likely including bowling with it. Pinstripes had it all, location, professionalism, food, staff and coordinator, the fun-factor. We know we had the best wedding of our lives here.

Athenaeum 

5.0

Alexandria, VA
  • Up to 80 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,100

The Athenaeum is a beautifully preserved antebellum building, now serving as an art gallery. One of only two remaining examples of Neoclassical Greek Revival architecture in Alexandria, its exterior features an impressive portico supported by soaring Doric columns. Oversized windows bring natural light to the main gallery rooms, which boast 24-foot ceilings, wonderful woodwork, and exposed granite walls lined with rotating art exhibits. Your ceremony can be held in the sweet, private courtyard. This quaint, romantic space has a “secret garden” feel, sheltered from the street by high, vine-covered red brick walls. Please note wheelchair access is available only on the main floor. A/V equipment is available but limited. Viewing the Athenaeum The Athenaeum is available for viewing during gallery hours or by appointment. Gallery hours are Thursday-Sunday from 12:00pm-4:00pm. The Athenaeum is closed on holidays. Advance notice for viewing the Athenaeum is appreciated.

We recently had our wedding at the Athenaeum in Old Town Alexandria, and it was a truly special occasion! The venue was just the right size for the wedding we wanted and the style made us think of the place we got engaged, on the Acropolis in Athens. The venue has a lovely indoor gallery space as well as a courtyard and we hat our ceremony outdoors and the reception indoors. A few things you should keep in mind if you are considering the Athenaeum: the space is on the small side, which we liked, but may not suffice for some weddings; you have to choose one of their recommended caterers or pay an added fee (though we were very happy with the caterers we went with and they knew exactly how the venue worked!); the venue does not include anything beyond the actual space, all vendors and services need to be hired separately. For us, this all worked out well and we felt our guests had a great time! The venue also makes for a beautiful backdrop for photos, just make sure to reserve the parking spaces in front of it. Our only minor issue was that the rental manager was not super responsive, but his coworker was, so it wasn't a problem in the end, I just didn't know who to reach out to at first. All in all, we are so happy we got to have our wedding at the Athenaeum! The art on display on the day was cheerful and modern and everything went according to plan. So excited to see more picture and relive the special day!

Cimiez Manor

Leesburg, VA
  • Up to 100 guests

  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,500

Cimiez Manor is a historic mansion available for rental. Originally build in 1840, we are on 13.5 acres that is only 2 miles from downtown Leesburg. We are available for weddings, special events, banquets, and business events. Our stunning views and historic beauty will make your event memorable! Our expert staff is available to help with your questions.

Wes and Jill and all of Cimiez Manor made our wedding truly magical. We met Jill in November of 2019 right after we got engaged looking for a venue that could handle a moderately sized wedding without breaking the bank and still available on the most popular wedding date of 2020 at the time (10.10.2020). The venue is off the beaten trail up the road from Dry Mill Winery. When you drive down the road you see a beautiful manor house that checked off our first box. We walked into the house and Jill decorated the giant chalkboard wall with our name for an extra special touch. The high ceilings, giant chandelier, Victorian era decor, and the speakeasy charm had us hooked. Once we signed, Jill and Wes kept us updated on all the happenings at the venue and changes that incurred with a COVID wedding. They worked well with our wedding planner and we really couldn’t have had a better wedding. They even let us hide a bottle of whiskey on the property for good luck! If you are truly looking for a magical wedding, Cimiez Manor should be the first choice!

A venue perfect for all seasons, our Sperry tent provides full outdoor coverage from April until late October for up to 350 guests.

The elegant design of our manor house estate gives our spaces seamless scalability for any type of event. For cozy family or smaller gatherings, our pub and parlor rooms provide exclusivity and intimacy with the beauty of open space and architecture surrounding it.

My husband and I recently tied the knot in February 2024. The Inn at Vint Hill was the perfect all-inclusive venue for our winter wedding. We got married indoors and it was a good size for our smaller wedding (50-60 people). The place has a timeless charm, which made it easier to decorate. Lots of space upstairs in the getting ready suites for both the groomsmen (including a pool table) and bridesmaids. The food was great and we heard lots of positive comments about the slow-cooked brisket. Dawn and her team worked with me to help bring my vision to life. And surpassed it! We felt like family with how flexible and accommodating they were, from being able to drop off decor weeks ahead of the wedding and always being responsive to any questions asked. It was a truly memorable day, so any future winter brides be sure to check out the Inn!

The Manor At Airmont 

5.0

Round Hill, VA
  • Up to 200 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

Celebrations at The Manor are one-of-a-kind events designed to tell your story. Whether it's a wedding weekend surrounded by 150 of your closest family and friends or simply a weekend away with a few friends to celebrate a birthday, The Manor offers the perfect setting. Nestled in the heart of VA's wine country on over 18 acres there are multiple indoor and outdoor locations to accommodate your event. The Manor at Airmont has multiple sites for ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Our venue offers an in-house design team and catering, and event planning and management options.

When looking for a venue the Manor was the second venue we’d seen out of five and after taking a tour with Anthony we crossed the rest off our list. When we visited I immediately felt it was elegant and classy but also warm and cozy. Their all inclusive package was a godsend, it removed the stress of having to interview and coordinate different vendors. They handled it all while keeping us comfortable with our budget. The design process was so much fun! Natallia really invested in getting to know us personally which would inspire her recommendations. I wasn’t a bride that had dreamt of every single detail down to the color of the napkins but I knew the style and ambiance I wanted and gave Natallia and her team artistic license to come up with designs that matched my inspiration board. The outcome was breathtaking. Several guests mentioned it was the most beautiful wedding they’d ever attended. A unique twist Natallia and her team came up with was a way to acknowledge that our wedding date also happened to be Cinco de Mayo. They set up a beautiful taco and tequila welcome bar before the ceremony that our guests devoured. The food from the welcome taco bar to cocktail hour to dinner and then the dessert bar was 5 star restaurant quality. The tasting event was my husband’s favorite part of the entire process but also the most difficult because it was too hard to choose with some many delicious options. We ended up upgrading our dinner menu and adding additional hors d’oeuvres. The artistic presentation combined with the decadent flavors had our guests complimenting for weeks. Choosing The Manor at Airmont was the best and easiest decision of the entire wedding process. Their staff were incredibly detailed, attentive, and genuine. The Manor is a truly special place, that makes all its guests feel welcome. This is a dream venue for any couple looking for a stunning location, with an exceptional design team, matched with delectable dishes and cocktails. I tell everyone I meet getting married that they need to book their wedding at The Manor!

Cumberland Estate is unbelievable. If you’re looking for that perfect place for your dream wedding, look no further. Tucked back in the woods it opens up to a beautiful plantation that sits along the Pumunkey River. The views and landscape are breathtaking. From the flower gardens to the weeping willow cascading over the ponds , it’s romantic and beautiful. My husband and I got married at the estate in 2021. We stayed on the property in the Carriage House the night before and the night of our wedding. The Carriage House is also used for any guests that want to stay at the Estate. We just recently stayed again for our one year anniversary! It was just as wonderful as it was for our wedding! The staff here is amazing. They made sure we had everything we needed and they are so thoughtful. I definitely recommend Cumberland. There’s plenty of beautiful scenery for the perfect wedding photos.

Rixey Manor 

5.0

Rixeyville, VA
  • Up to 250 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $15,500

We are proud and happy to help curate every wedding to our couple's romantic specifications. We include coordination, and no 'must use' vendors list so you can make your wedding personal and relaxing. We only offer totally private rentals, so you can feel like your guests are visiting you in your own home. Our pet-friendly property even lets you bring your pups. Rixey offers the most spectacular views... from the top of the Blue Ridge Mountains on one side, to the bottom of Rixey Lake on the other. Our rooftop and patio spaces make for a magical setting both at sunset and at night, and the Ballroom, complete with climate control and ADA-accessible bathrooms, means that inclement weather won't have a negative effect on your special day. The history of the house lends an air of vintage elegance, but what most of our couples love is the comfy atmosphere provided by big sofas, real fires, and the ability to curl up at the end of the night in the library with your favorite people.

Rixey Manor was an absolute dream venue. From the moment we came for a tour, we knew that we wanted to get married there. The venue is private, gorgeous, and unlike anything else we'd seen, but it's the people at Rixey who truly make it worth every penny. Throughout the planning process, Isadora (the venue manager) was incredibly organized and made the process much less stressful. Her team has years of experience and were able to give advice and insights on the entire process - including how much alcohol to buy, how to schedule the day so it ran smoothly, and even extra decorations on the property that we were able to use cost-free. They have a helpful Google template that served as the brain trust of our wedding operation - it had tabs for nearly every aspect of the whole weekend, and we shared it with all of our vendors to plan the day. Rixey even has an annual "Bridal Bootcamp" where couples can come and learn about the planning process from their recommended vendors and spend time at Rixey. They go above and beyond for their couples. But Rixey and its staff truly shined on our wedding weekend. A major advantage of booking Rixey is that you get access to the venue for the entire weekend. We can't understate how wonderful it was to arrive and set up Friday, be able to wake up at the venue on Saturday, and then go to sleep there after partying the night away and have brunch with our loved ones on Sunday. We got so many compliments on how seamless the weekend ran and how gorgeous and unique of a venue Rixey is. It is truly its own private space, and you can feel its intimacy reflected in your whole day. We were able to truly relax and enjoy the weekend, because Isadora and her team took care of everything. Isadora is a superhuman and listened so intently, arranged every decoration, and handled every vendor interaction for us so that we could be fully present and enjoy the weekend. That, in itself, is a gift we will treasure forever. Bottom line is, if you'd like a special, one-of-a-kind venue that your guests will love, with staff that will make you feel relaxed, present, and prepared, book Rixey!

Elegance Estates was the perfect venue for our April wedding. We got married in a church and had the reception at Elegance Estates, and it was absolutely beautiful. I am a very minimalistic girl, so I did not provide the venue coordinator (Brittany—she’s amazing) with very much decor or direction and she still somehow made everything look perfect. Their catering team is awesome and the food was delicious. The set up provides lots of space for guests to move and mingle, and we had a blast dancing in the ballroom. Would highly recommend! They made wedding planning so easy.

I had the pleasure of working with the director of catering, Liliana Klein, on a gorgeous wedding this February. I was the couple's planner and was thrilled to be able to produce a wedding at Ritz Carlton Georgetown. Throughout the process, Liliana was so professional: warm and welcoming, communicative, addressed any and all questions, followed up after any meetings promptly, and on the day was FANTASTIC to work with. I could tell it was a high priority of Liliana to go above and beyond for the couple in making their wedding weekend a dream experience for them and an effortless celebration for their guests. Would work here for every wedding if I could! Plus, gatherings of 100 or less are my favorite!! Thank you, Liliana and RC staff.

Fredericksburg Country Club

Fredericksburg, VA
  • Up to 180 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $2,500

Fredericksburg Country Club is a wedding venue located in Fredericksburg, Virginia. Oozing classic Southern charm and sophistication, the property is ideal for couples seeking to escape the normal every day. Away from the hustle of the big city, couples can transform a variety of event spaces to host the wedding they’ve always envisioned. Founded in 1925, this venue strives to be your home away from home, providing a safe and glamorous setting for some of life’s most precious moments.

I had my wedding reception at the Fredericksburg Country Club in August 2019. I had a rather large reception, and it was a little confusing in the last month of planning because of the number of international/traveling guests - no matter how many times I emailed Amy, called her, texted her she always was prompt and professional - honestly if I sent her a smoke signal I truly believe she would have responded quickly while still managing to quell any anxieties! If you haven't been to the country club, while the pictures are beautiful, they do not do the place justice. When planning our wedding we wanted a place that was very "Virginia" and classic. With its vaulted ceiling in the ballroom, the wall of windows facing the rappahannock river, the beautiful parlors, and pristine grounds, this was exactly the place! I can not speak on how highly I recommend the FCC for any event - they will help you meet your dreams effortlessly.

The planning process went smoothly because we utilized a lot of The Manors preferred vendors. All of our vendors were incredible and knew the space well which was a huge plus. Kristin our day of/month of planner with the venue did an excellent job answering all of the questions that came up and was very honest about how some things would work on the day which was much appreciated.

She arranged my decor exactly as I had pictured it in my head and went above and beyond to make everything so beautiful. The staff were amazing and kept the day running smoothly. We ended up getting pretty far behind on our timeline, but nobody noticed because of how well they worked the event. Everything seemed seamless!
