The Quirk Hotel is a boutique hotel chain with locations in Charlottesville and Richmond that’s perfect for a small, artsy wedding. The Quirk Hotel in Charlottesville can host anywhere from micro weddings like Robin and Vito had to 200 person weddings. However, they are really best suited for weddings with 120 guests or fewer. The […]
James Monroe’s Highland is a beautiful wedding venue close to downtown Charlottesville. The historic property was once the estate of President James Monroe. The estate features incredible gardens, rolling hills, tree-line roads and white picket fences. It’s good fit for couples who want a historic manor feel for their wedding without paying the price of […]
Eastwood Farm and Winery is a newer wedding venue in Charlottesville. Most ceremonies happen at what they call “the mountaintop” (that’s where Caitlin and John’s wedding took place). The mountaintop features meadows of wildflowers, woods and narrow mountain views. But ceremonies can also take place on the terrace beside the reception tent or on the […]
Castle Hill Cider is one of the prettiest wedding venues in the Charlottesville area. It’s located in Keswick, which is about 30 minutes from downtown Charlottesville.

However, if you are hosting an intimate […]
One of the best spots in the Shenandoah Valley for mountain engagement photos is Cole Mountain. Cole Mountain is one of those spots that is kind of a local gem. I wouldn’t call it “hidden” since there always lots of people there, but the space is so wide open you feel like you have it […]
Sierra Vista is one of those wedding venues that has been on my radar for a long time. I knew it had incredible mountain views. But driving up and seeing them in person is something else. Sierra Vista probably has the most epic mountain views of any venue in Virginia. And i’ve been to a […]
Sundara is an incredibly beautiful wedding venue located just 20 minutes outside of Roanoke. It’s situated at the base of Cahas Mountain. As a result, it is one of the best central Virginia wedding venues for mountain views. Yet it is close enough to downtown Roanoke to make finding guest accommodations and wedding vendors a […]
VRBO is my go-to place to find epic vacation rentals for hosting a wedding. (Airbnb banned events at their properties as of 2020.) Luckily, a LOT of properties are cross-listed between the two platforms. Interested in other great wedding venues? Check out this blog post on the Best Wedding Venues in Roanoke.
