From the moment we first visited Dover Hall, we knew it was the one. The picturesque castle setting was absolutely magical and provided a breathtaking backdrop for our ceremony and reception. The well-maintained gardens, and the exquisite architecture of the venue created a romantic atmosphere that left our guests in awe. One of the standout features of Dover Hall is its versatility.

We opted for an outdoor ceremony by the pool, followed by a reception in their elegant ballroom. The seamless transition between spaces was expertly managed, and it added to the overall flow and enjoyment of our wedding day. The venue’s staff were simply exceptional. From our first meeting with their wedding coordinator to the day of our event, they were attentive, professional, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. They took care of every detail, ensuring that everything ran smoothly, allowing us to focus on savoring every moment with our loved ones. Speaking of details, the cuisine provided by their in-house catering team was beyond delicious. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food, and neither could we. The menu was customizable, and Dover Hall accommodated any of our guests dietary preferences without hesitation. Another highlight was the stunning bridal suite and groom's billiards getting-ready rooms. It was not only spacious but also beautifully decorated, providing a luxurious and comfortable space for each bridal party to get ready. Also, the staff provided food and drinks that we could enjoy, which were perfect! Our wedding at Dover Hall was an absolute fairytale.

We had our daughter’s September 2025 wedding at Virginia Crossings in Glen Allen, Va (Richmond area). It is a boutique plantation-style hotel on 20 acres with a street lamp lined curving drive up to the main buildings. Our guests raved about the gorgeous estate-like grounds, the service, and the delicious, beautifully presented food. Many of our guests have lived in the Richmond area for years and never realized Virginia Crossings existed. It’s such a hidden gem! Chef Ashby knocked it out of the park with the cocktail hour hors d’oeuvres and plated dinner entrees. The portions were huge and so yummy! I’m still dreaming about the salmon with English pea puree and risotto. The wedding package prices are reasonable for what you get. Packages range from 110 to 140 per person (plus a 23% admin fee, taxes, and tips) and include a 4 hour open bar, 4 passed and 2 stationary hors d’oeuvres for cocktail hour, 3 course plated or buffet dinner, cake cutting, champagne toast for all guests, a Day of Coordinator and assistant, floor length linens and choice of napkin color, upgraded china, all glassware and silverware, tables and chairs, 5 hours of event time, ample getting ready spaces for both bridal parties, and a night’s stay in the Bridal Suite for the bride and groom. If you choose to have your ceremony on site, there is a 2000 site fee. You can get married in the lovely outdoor courtyard garden or other outdoor space, the interior Madison Lobby or in one of the smaller event rooms. Their rain plan is exceptional. It rained on my daughter’s wedding day, and they didn’t miss a beat. And because the interior spaces are so beautiful, there were plenty of spots for great pictures inside. Because the property has a hotel building, 2/3 of our 137 guests stayed on site for the whole weekend. Our family members who arrived on Thursday told us that the grounds crew was busy mowing, weeding, and trimming to make everything look perfect. And they saw cleaning crews in all the public areas scrubbing and polishing until the hotel sparkled. The hotel staff also handed out our Welcome Bags to our guests as they checked in. Without a doubt, the BEST thing about having a wedding at Virginia Crossings was working with Jeffery Ward in conference and event sales. He, his assistant Elise, and his staff worked incredibly hard to make our daughter’s wedding flow seamlessly. He managed all our vendors, ran the rehearsal, organized the bridal party, kept us on track with our timeline, and even helped bustle the bride’s dress. Jeffery also executed our vision for the cocktail hour and ballroom spaces flawlessly! When the doors to the ballroom opened for dinner, I rushed in so that I could see it all decorated before it filled with our guests. And it literally took my breath away! It was BEAUTIFUL!!! So romantic and dreamy!

The John Marshall Ballrooms

Richmond, VA
  • Up to 300 guests

The Hotel John Marshall opened in 1929 as the largest hotel in Virginia. Its rooms welcomed Elizabeth Taylor, Mary Tyler Moore, and Elvis Presley along with political figures such as Presidents Nixon, Ford, and Carter. After sitting vacant for over 20 years (save a few attempts to open) the building recently underwent an $80 Million renovation, spanning two years of construction to strip it back to the bones and restore it to its original 1920's grandeur.

Absolutely, hands down the best venue. I would have my wedding there again. Maria and her stuff were the easiest of people to work with. Everything from the food and decor, to drinks and table settings; everyone worked to make it the best day ever. Having in house catering is underrated and more people should choose a venue like The John Marshall and Homemade by Suzanne’s. When you have a 2 in 1 great deal like this you don’t have to worry about coordinating things yourself, which is a huge plus when you plan your own wedding!! Both my husband and I are so grateful for everything. It made the day go so smoothly and stress free. The ballrooms being beautiful just make the whole venue come together. 1000% would recommend having your wedding here!!

We hosted a black-tie winter wedding (late February) with the Estate at River Run (ERR) and were blown away by the event. One of the biggest draws for us with ERR was the venue’s ability to accommodate both indoor and outdoor ceremonies and receptions with gorgeous locations for each. This allowed us to plan for an indoor ceremony but flex to an outdoor ceremony the week of the wedding to take advantage of good weather! Several months after our wedding we still have friends and family telling us how gorgeous the venue was! ERR did a wonderful job communicating during the planning process and ensuring we knew what they needed from us to host a successful event. The staff and security during the event were wonderful, the venue itself was an absolute fairytale for our wedding day. If you are looking for a venue that can host a black-tie event in central VA or the greater Richmond area, please consider ERR!

My husband and I cannot say enough about The Boathouse at Rocketts Landing! From the first tour back in August 2024 until our wedding in November 2025, they were absolutely fantastic. We worked with Bonnie initially, but Alli was our official day of coordinator. The price is worth it for everything you get - venue, staff, food, bar, setup, and so much more. Alli and her staff were amazing every step of the way, and they truly made our wedding day as special, easy, and memorable it could be. The photos I am attaching are from Ivy and Lace Photo!

From the very first planning conversation to the final moments of the wedding reception, everything was handled with professionalism, grace, and genuine care. The setting itself is beautiful--the water views, the light pouring through the windows, the way the space feels both elegant and welcoming at the same time. It creates instant magic before you even add flowers or décor. But what truly sets this venue apart is the team. Kristan Hughes is exceptional. She is calm under pressure, incredibly organized, and deeply invested in making sure every detail is executed flawlessly. Her communication was clear, her guidance was thoughtful, and her presence on the wedding day allowed everyone (especially the bride and groom) to relax and be fully present. Her team operates like a well-oiled machine. Service was seamless, transitions were smooth, and every question was handled quickly and kindly. You can tell they take enormous pride in what they do. The food was outstanding, the pacing was perfect, and the overall experience felt effortless, which we all know is the result of tremendous behind-the-scenes work. If you are considering The Boathouse at Sunday Park for your wedding or special event, do not hesitate. It is a spectacular venue supported by an extraordinary team. And SO MUCH is included in the price. We are so grateful… and will definitely be back!

Burlington Weddings & Events was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first spoke with Madison, her communication was effective, efficient, and always pleasant. The venue itself was gorgeous, with a timeless feel that was worth every penny. Despite some tricky wind conditions trying to ruin our decor, Madison and the team went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. They were so efficient in loading and unloading that we were able to get out of there early. While their services may come at a premium price, you truly get what you pay for with the amazing team and stunning venue they provide. We couldn't be happier with our decision to host our special day at Burlington Weddings & Events.

Fawn Lake was the first venue we visited and after that, nothing else compared! We can not say enough about Jessica and her amazing staff! We were fortunate enough to work with them for over 2 years! Our original plan was to be married in June 2020, throughout the pandemic, Jessica kept in constant contact with us about updates a d supported us along the way. After our decision to postpone to June 2021, the team continued to stay in touch. Jessica and her team and are respectful, responsive and kind. Jessica is always welcoming as she celebrated with us as counts when down and Virginia opened up! She answered every minuscule question and walked us through every step of the way. With Fawn Lake, we never had a worry about our special day. They helped with with everything and took care of the entire day. We never had to fret! Just 20 minutes before our ceremony, it started to drizzle. Jessica offered 3 different back up plans before I could even blink. After a covid postponement, and a rain delay- Jessica and the staff at fawn lake made sure our special day was more amazing than we could ever dream! They stood by as it only rained for 17 minutes and switched from outdoors to in doors and back to outdoors without hesitation. We were truly blessed to find Fawn Lake! We are honestly sad that we don’t have an excuse to work with them anymore. They listen to every request, follow every direction and give amazing support and suggestions. Our guests are still raving about the organization and the food at our wedding! They are the best!

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.

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!

If you are looking for one of the best wedding venues in Williamsburg, VA, look no further! I've shot here a number of times (Zola only let me chose 10 out of 30 pics I wanted to show) and it is fantastic. First, the staff is wonderful as they are attentive and they go above and beyond for their couples. I love to see that because, as a photographer, I work closely with the staff so we can make the couple's day just as they imagined. There are great spots to get photos, just a short distance from the clubhouse. As a photographer, that is important because I want to get the amazing shots the couple wants without a delay getting them to the reception. The sunsets on the river are amazing and they get them ALL year. I've shot there in winter, spring, summer, and fall. You are in great hands with the staff at Two Rivers and you have the potential for stunning wedding photos. I highly recommend Two Rivers for you wedding day!
