The whole Valley Road Vineyards team (especially Barbara, Stan, and Ester) were amazing to work with from start to finish. Out of all the vineyards we toured in the area, VRV’s event space felt very intentional (essentially not an afterthought) for a wedding. We had a wedding of 70 guests in October, and the event space layout made the flow of ceremony to cocktail hour to reception very natural/seamless. Some of our guests had mobility disabilities, and Barbara emphasized how important it was to have the venue be accessible and help those guests. Additionally, though it didn’t rain on our actual day, we loved the rain contingency plan within The Barn because it still gave us/guests the opportunity to admire the vineyard’s beautiful scenery. The views of the valley/mountains from Valley Road Vineyards are gorgeous, and our guests complimented the area and wines throughout our wedding day! The sunset is also STUNNING here. During the initial venue tour, Barbara did an excellent job showing us the spaces, giving us time to enjoy the wines and discuss questions/concerns, and was honestly just a joy to interact with. As a queer couple, we felt welcomed by the entire staff. Throughout the entire planning process, Barbara was very quick to respond to any questions we had, flexible to what our needs were, and extremely helpful. We highly recommend Valley Road Vineyards for your wedding day!

Montfair was the first wedding venue my husband and I visited and we immediately fell in love with it. Private, understated but very well kept up, naturally gorgeous, and diverse in its landscapes, Montfair allowed us to create an experience that felt worlds away and truly magical. We held our ceremony down by the pond and guests could watch the sun set over the changing trees and water as they had drinks. The lodge feels intimate and cozy at night; the dance floor was expansive and welcoming; and guests who wanted fresh air could enjoy the bonfire Enjoying time with our families who stayed in the cabins the next morning was a special bonus. The team is resourceful and warm. This is a precious place!

We got to host our wedding at Love Ridge Mountain Lodging and we loved the experience. We appreciate the setting because it is beautiful, accessible and appropriately private. Having the 12 cabins there, as well as the camp sites, gave our guests many options and ample parking. All the rooms and beds are super comfortable. It was a perfect place to host a large gathering. People stayed two nights and enjoyed relaxing activities while we focused on staging the wedding - they could hike, ride e-bikes, play lawn games, relax in hot-tubs, and play with our photo booth. It was great! There were many spaces to choose from to create various atmospheres for the wedding. We used the lodge, the gathering lawn, the courtyard, and we had a tent on the open field for the reception dinner. We also had multiple bonfires and bar sites. It made the event feel varied and exciting, while keeping everyone in one place. The venue owners were very helpful and accommodating, happy to work with us during the planning process to make sure everything was taken care of. We're thus very happy to recommend this place!

The Barn at Tiffin Farm was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. The owners were incredibly responsive, kind, and easy to collaborate with throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself is absolutely stunning - the large barn doors open up to reveal a beautiful rustic space with breathtaking scenery all around. The bridal suite is especially impressive, with a luxurious and calming atmosphere. On the night of our wedding, when a storm rolled in at the end of the night, the owner even went out of his way to personally drive guests to their cars in his golf cart to keep everyone dry. We are so grateful for the Barn at Tiffin Farm team and the role they played in making our special day absolutely perfect.

Bellair Farm was the perfect rustic, casual, and relaxed venue for our wedding day. The rural setting provided a gorgeous, natural backdrop for our celebration, with plenty of room for our family and friends to spread out and enjoy the live band playing old time music, the square dance, and the barbecue buffet in the barn. The kids had a blast running around, playing in the sandboxes, and blowing bubbles. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect, laid-back setting to tie the knot. They generously let us store some of our flowers, food, and beer in their large walk-in cooler. Our caterer was able to set up in a closed off space in the barn that was out of site. Highly recommend Bellair Farm for any couple who is doing a DIY wedding event and looking for understated natural beauty and a relaxed setting that is kid-friendly.

Trump Winery 

5.0

Charlottesville, VA
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $4,500

Trump Winery is the venue where your wedding dreams come true. Whether you’ve envisioned an extravagant event or an elopement for just the two of you, we promise to create memories that you and your loved ones will cherish forever. Our 1300 acre property is nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, conveniently located 20 minutes from downtown Charlottesville. Our grounds have picture-perfect rolling hills, lakes, and over 200 acres of vines. Trump Winery couples benefit from indoor and outdoor ceremony, cocktail hour and reception settings, in well-appointed, heated and air-conditioned, luxury venues. Less than a mile away from both the Barn & Pavilion and the Grand Hall is our Albemarle Estate at Trump Winery, a 26,000-square foot, 11 bedroom mansion that provides overnight lodging for guests and a honeymoon night option for couples.

Our decision to elope at Trump Winery in Charlottesville turned out to be the best choice we could have made. From the moment we arrived, the staff provided exceptional service, going above and beyond to make our day perfect. Every detail was handled with care, and we truly felt like their priority. The venue itself is stunning. The chapel on the property is a masterpiece, offering a level of intimacy and charm that we couldn’t find anywhere else. The fresco on the ceiling is absolutely breathtaking, a true work of art that made the space feel even more special. The large bay windows and balcony created incredible opportunities for photography, while the pews and altar added an elegant, timeless touch. Speaking of photography, we were thrilled with our choice of Aaron Watson Photography. He was a true professional, expertly navigating less-than-ideal weather to capture photos that exceeded all our expectations. The wedding package we selected was seamless and stress-free. It included gorgeous flowers, a kind and professional officiant, and every element we needed to make our day unforgettable. Our stay at the Albemarle Estate was equally exceptional. Between the pristine grounds, beautifully appointed rooms, and the privacy of the cabin we stayed in, the estate made us feel like we had our own little paradise. With only about 11 rooms on the property, it offered a level of exclusivity that was especially memorable for our New Year’s Eve wedding. We couldn’t have been luckier to host our wedding here. The property’s uniqueness, from the incredible chapel to the estate’s picturesque surroundings, far surpassed any other venue we explored. Additionally, the entire elopement package was an extraordinary value. For under 10,000, it included the venue, officiant, photographer, floral arrangements, two nights in the cabin, hair and makeup brought directly to us, our wedding attire, and delicious meals in the fine dining room. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, making our wedding as easy as it was magical. If you’re considering hosting your wedding at Trump Winery, we cannot recommend it highly enough. The experience was truly one of a kind, and we’ll cherish the memories forever.

The venue has gorgeous outdoor spaces for the ceremony and cocktail reception. The indoor space is flexible for a reception with a dance floor. There are chairs for both the ceremony and reception as well as tables. We chose to have a June wedding and when the temps entered the upper 90s, we were grateful for the A/C reception space. Even better, there are two suites that the wedding party can use to make for a seamless process getting ready. We enjoyed our experience so very much. Lastly, the bathrooms there were also excellent and let’s be real, that’s a crucial component for any good party.

We had our wedding at Boxwood Villa on May 4, 2024, and it was completely perfect. Our family from out of town came a few days early to get settled and prepare, and there was plenty of space for us to spread out and also to hang out together. The beds were insanely comfortable and the accommodations were amazing. While we planned to have the ceremony on the front lawn, the rain had other plans and the team jumped into action and was ready to host our 30 guests on the spacious, gorgeous covered porch. The cocktail hour was held on the first level, and the beautiful house made for some incredible photo opportunities. The lawn was the most amazing place for the tent where our reception was held, and it was just as magical as everywhere else. Everyone commented on how perfect the venue was, including my family. I can't wait to visit again in the future to re-live these incredible memories. Thank you, Boxwood Villa!!!
