We recently got married at Gala 417, and the entire experience was fantastic! The venue is absolutely breathtaking, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about how stunning everything was. Working with the Gala 417 team, especially Sarah and Lyndsey, made the planning process enjoyable and stress-free. They were incredibly responsive and attentive, always quick to answer questions and ensure that our wedding day vision came to life in a way that felt uniquely ours. Lyndsey, our day-of coordinator, was amazing! She handled everything flawlessly throughout the morning and early afternoon, and we truly appreciated how well-organized and professional she was. Even though there were a couple of small bumps after her departure, such as the DJ needing a reminder for speeches, and a few of our selected beer options running out earlier than expected, the staff still managed to keep everything running smoothly. To future brides, I would recommend clearly emphasizing any specific beverage preferences during your catering and blueprint meetings if you or your guests have favorites to avoid any disappointments. We were especially excited about the food after trying it at our catering meeting—it was delicious, and we even bragged to our guests about it! However, on the day of the wedding, the food served was bland and inconsistently prepared. We had requested steaks to be cooked medium, but after the fact, many of our guests shared that their filets ranged from rare to well-done, with some even mentioning gristle or fat in the cut—which shouldn’t happen with a filet. This was a bit disappointing, especially considering how much we were looking forward to the meal. Overall, Gala 417 went above and beyond to make our wedding day truly unforgettable. We would absolutely recommend this venue to future couples—between the gorgeous space and the dedication of the staff, our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more. We are so grateful to the entire Gala 417 team for making our day so special!

I couldn’t have asked for a better venue to get married at! Joel and Bethany were amazing to work with and made sure our special day was absolutely perfect! We had their wine and sangria for our reception (IMPECCABLE) and they had provided us with a list of vendors they’ve worked with which made finding a caterer, photographer, makeup artist, officiant, etc. SOOO much easier - especially since we were coming from out of state. There are so many picture perfect spots on their property that will truly feel like a scene out of a movie. I honestly can’t say enough amazing things about them!

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.

Riverside Weddings by Clore 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
Fredericksburg, VA
  • Up to 130 guests
  • Starts at $4,500

Our goal is to provide a million dollar outside wedding site at an affordable price AND treat every bride like she is our own daughter. In the 1950’s thru the mid 1970’s the site was known as Motts Run Landing, which provided access to the Rappahannock River for families, boaters and fishermen by day and a local lovers lane by night. In 1979 Gene & Linda Clore purchased this 2 ½ acre slice of heaven and dedicated their lives to the fun and pleasure of those who wished to enjoy the Rappahannock and Rapidan rivers by canoe. Because of it’s natural beauty a friend of the family, in 1993, requested to have their wedding overlooking the river. Thus was the inception of Riverside Weddings. After a few years of one or two weddings per year with family and friends (and friends telling friends about our enchanting spot to get married) it was obvious that we had become “Riverside Weddings by Clore”

Venue considerations

  • No in-house catering options

I could talk about how much I loved having our May 2025 wedding with the Clores for literal hours... and I have! From the first message to the end of the wedding weekend Gene and Linda were excited, helpful, communicative, and generally just "good peoples"! Through the process I felt just generally cared for which I feel like went a long way in how amazing I felt when the day came, it wasn't just a venue then, it was Gene and Linda's cabin. The feel of the cabin and grounds is so so perfect ... magical really - you know they put a lot of care, love, and expertise into it! It's a place you want to visit again (so tell your friends to get married there, too)! Our family and friends were in love with this place as much as we were. I truly cannot recommend it enough! If you are on the fence... reach out and make a visit... you'll see what I'm talking about!

We recently had our wedding at the Ospreys and it was an absolutely perfect day. We had Tori as our day of coordinator and she ensured everything was perfect and up to our standards. She even adjusted on the fly for us when we wanted to do most minute photo op. I had forgotten plenty of small things and she was more than prepared and made sure I had everything I needed and really went above and beyond. We had our ceremony indoors because of the rain, and it was still absolutely gorgeous. I highly recommend Ospreys as they are professional, excellent at what they do and they will make your special day a breeze.

Annita was absolutely amazing to work with. From the start, she made the whole planning process feel so much easier with her calm, easygoing personality. We had so many questions and worries along the way, but she was always there to reassure us and guide us through everything. It truly felt like we were in good hands. On the day of the wedding, Desiree, our day-of coordinator, was a total lifesaver. She brought so many great ideas to the table and handled everything with such confidence and care. Honestly, without her, we would’ve been a mess! She helped everything run so smoothly and let us really enjoy the day without stress. Our wedding day turned out to be absolutely beautiful, and we’re so grateful we chose Swan Point. Having Annita and Desiree by our side made all the difference. We can’t thank them enough!

They responded to every question quickly and kept us informed every step of the way, which made the planning process so smooth and stress-free. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, and we loved using their decor throughout our celebration—it fit our vision perfectly. The bridal suite in the manor was the cherry on top; our bridesmaids had the most elegant space to get ready, and it truly felt like a dream.

There is a special sort of feeling that being here at the farm brings, a calm and peaceful energy about the property. Maybe it is the history, there is comfort in knowing the original farmhouse, which sits at the center of the property, has stood for over two centuries. Maybe its the rustic beauty of the big white barn, that was built by farmers as a dairy barn in 1920. This little slice of heaven has been a part of so many families who lived and worked this land over the past 250 years. Come and see for yourself.

What a magical spot for our special day! We chose Belles Pleasure for our wedding, and it exceeded every expectation. The venue’s rustic barn is absolutely adorable—think charming wooden beams, string lights, and that cozy, vintage vibe that made our reception feel intimate and timeless. The beautiful little pond added such a serene touch; our photos by the water were straight out of a fairytale, with the gentle reflections and surrounding greenery creating the perfect backdrop. Emily, the owner, was an absolute dream to work with. From our first tour to the big day, she was incredibly accommodating, helping us customize everything from seating arrangements to last-minute tweaks without any fuss. Her warm, flexible approach made the planning process stress-free, and she went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. If you’re dreaming of a picturesque, heartfelt wedding venue that’s not over-the-top but full of character, Belles Pleasure is it. We couldn’t recommend it more highly—5 stars all the way!

The Athenaeum is a beautifully preserved antebellum building, now serving as an art gallery.

Please note wheelchair access is available only on the main floor. A/V equipment is available but limited. The Athenaeum is available for viewing during gallery hours or by appointment.

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!
