Make your wedding unique: host it at a Virginia bed and breakfast.

Some innkeepers cater weddings themselves, while others have good relationships with local photographers, caterers, and officiants. This may be your first wedding, but it probably isn’t their first wedding, and you will find them both helpful and reassuring.

One of the best reasons to have your wedding at a Virginia bed and breakfast is that the wedding party can lodge at the wedding venue. The entire wedding party can sleep under the same roof the nights before and after the wedding. Host your rehearsal dinner at the inn, as well as the reception, and don’t worry if you toast the nuptials often – you just need to walk to your room at the end of the evening.

A few good places to get married in Central Virginia: Mayhurst Inn, a 1859 Italianiate Victorian Manor in Orange, VA; Winterham Plantation, an antebellum manor on 14 acres near Richmond, VA; and Longacre Bed and Breakfast, a lovely brick Tudor home in Appomattox.

A few good places to get married in Southern Virginia: Maysville Manor. a federal manor in Buckingham, VA; The Three Angels Inn at the historic Sherwood Plantation, near Lawrenceville, VA; and Cooper’s Landing Inn in historic Clarksville on the Lake.

Chesapeake Bay

Start your life together by the Chesapeake Bay.

If you’re looking for Wedding Venues in Virginia, you have many options. Virginia is not a large state (it’s the 35th largest in the country), but it is diverse. There are gorgeous mountains, fertile fields, and over 100 miles of coastline. There are remote islands, charming seacoast towns, and grand historic homesteads. Once you’ve both said yes, you’ll need to settle on a wedding venue in Virginia.

If you are drawn to the mountains, consider a wedding in the Blue Ridge Highlands. Hope Springs Farm, in picturesque Floyd County, sits on 100 lovely acres, and Rockwood Manor, 45 minutes west of Roanoke, specializes in weddings and receptions. If you prefer to hear the sound of the surf in the background as you say your vows, host your wedding on the Virginia Eastern Shore; the Bay View Waterfront Bed and Breakfast overlooks Occohannock Creek and the Chesapeake Bay. The Essex Inn, by the Chesapeake Bay, dates back to 1705 and was one of the first homes on the Tappahannock.

Planning for a wedding is an exciting time, whether you’re the bride, the groom, a member of the family or a good friend. There really is no bad choice of wedding venue in Virginia – the most important thing is the commitment.
