    An enchanting venue! Just what we were looking for to host our daughter’s Quinceañera this May. Bel Air is as gorgeous in person as it looks in the pictures. Fitting our theme (enchanted forest), Bel Air has a very well-kept garden, a gorgeous path of aged trees, and of course the spacious rustic barn to compliment every aspect of our “Enchanted Quince” event. The space is gorgeous with minimal decor, or a blank canvas for creativity. Perfect to begin and end the day in one place, from hair and makeup to end of reception, and with all the magical moments in between. We used every spot of the venue and worked with Maria to get the lights to change colors during the event as we progressed through different segments and performances of the night. She was great to work with before and during the event. We are very thankful for her receptivity to our questions and ideas as we put together a very busy event. Our guests loved the beauty of the venue and vendors who were new to Bel Air were stunned by such a gorgeous place in such a convenient location. My recommendation is: book early!

    From the moment we walked into BelAir 1740 my daughter knew this was the perfect place for her wedding. The barn and the grounds are beautiful. Maria made it so easy to book, plan and enjoy the day. The gardens are beautiful and although it rained the day of, there was plenty of room on the patio for the ceremony. Highly recommend this venue. Large bridal suite and groom's room on site. Great lighting and plenty of room inside and out for guests to enjoy your event.

  • The PERFECT Northern Virginia Venue!

    Our experience with Bel Air 1740 was absolutely wonderful! From the very beginning, Maria was professional, attentive, and truly dedicated to making our event special. The venue itself is stunning, offering picturesque settings that made every photo look spectacular. Every detail was handled with care, and Maria went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. We felt completely taken care of and could not have asked for a better place to celebrate our special day. We highly recommend Bel Air 1740 to any couple looking for a seamless and memorable wedding experience. Thank you for making our day truly unforgettable!

    I love working at Bel Air 1740. MARIA is such a wonderful person to work with. She's passionate and really cares about her couples! The venue is amazingly beautiful and the guests at weddings are always complimenting the beauty of it. The bridal suite is pretty big with lots of light and mirrors for make up. The cocktail hour space is amazing with floor to ceiling clear panels in the winter and open air during the warmer months. The firepit is ALWAYS a hit! The kitchen, is on the larger side compared to the other venues I've seen. The ceremony space is breathing and the tall trees with the walkway in the middle is absolutely stunning! I 100% reccommend this venue!!
