Julie, Scott, and their team made our wedding day perfect. From the first site visit and throughout the planning process, they were amazing communicators. 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 used the Kimpton The Forum Hotel for our wedding weekend and it was a DREAM. By far the nicest accommodations available in the Charlottesville area, and pricing-wise, it beats competitors by a mile for a much nicer experience. From the minute we arrived for our wedding weekend, staff here made us feel seen and helped us with our every request. We were able to book a suite for bride and groom and getting ready, and Shannon helped us so much in securing our room block, extending it, and coordinating our stay. We also opted to have our wedding welcome party here, which was truly perfect. A huge thank you to Jake for the wonderful support provided in planning. The bar staff was so kind and soldiered through a very hot evening outside on the Camilia Promenade (which was a BEAUTIFUL venue) and choosing to host the welcome party at the hotel was one of the best decisions we made in our wedding planning process. The food and drink were perfect. This was also a great spot for our guests, who could find something to eat at one of the restaurants when needed. We found ourselves gathered around the bar at night which was just such a lovely way to spend time together, and the accommodations themselves were so upscale and lovely. Valet staff was out of this world helpful, remembered our names, were friendly and kind...and our guests loved the happy hour in the evenings, too! I wish we could've stayed here even longer, it was truly so perfect and made us feel so special over our wedding weekend. Can't recommend enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
When planning our wedding, we knew we wanted to prioritize spending as much time as possible with family and friends. We had 130 guests and 80 guests stayed with us in cabins. The location in Charlottesville also allowed easy access for guests who preferred to stay in a hotel. Tina was fantastic to work with and met us on two different Saturdays prior to the wedding so we could look at the venue. Shuttling guests from parking to the top of camp was much easier than we expected. We really enjoyed having full use of the dining hall where we ate breakfasts and lunches, and being able to use many of the camp amenities was awesome (picnic tables, fire pit, previous wedding goods, etc) The campfire circle with benches, pavilion, and an open space for cocktail hour are all very close together making for smooth transitions throughout the day. Our band was able to set up in the Pavilion and sounded awesome, and there was plenty of parking for catering as well. If you are looking for a camp-y wedding, we absolutely recommend Camp Holiday Trails.

Keswick Hunt Club was the perfect spot for our November 2023 Rehearsal Dinner & Welcome Reception! We had about 115 people at the welcome reception, and there was plenty of space for mingling. The wraparound porch was lovely, and having the stage there for music or a photo wall is a great addition! Arnold (the ops manager there) is wonderful, and his wife Judy and her team are availble for delicious in-house catering! If you're looking to pair it with the perfect florist who has worked there many times & knows all the ways to perfectly enhance it, go with Gregory Britt Designs (also in Keswick)!

Mary Neifert was the wedding coordinator for my daughter's wedding at Chisholm Vineyards. As someone who has worked in the service industry many years ago, I know just how much it took to pull off what Mary pulled off with my daughter's wedding. It is no small feat to deal with so many people - from the bride and groom - to the bridal party to the vendors to the guests to your staff, etc. The organization it takes, the attention to details, the discipline, the patience, the ability to roll and adjust as things changed, to be able to think outside of the box, to be available for the many questions that the bride and mother of the bride had along the way, to corralling a very large wedding party and all of the many other people who were floating around - Mary made everything go flawlessly and gave my daughter and her now husband and myself so much peace from the very beginning to the finish line. Mary even calmed my husband and gave him so much peace as he was preparing to officiate our daughter's wedding. He even said Mary was a calming presence and helped him to see a solution when he couldn't see the forest for the trees. He was having problems with his tuxedo studs and Mary very quickly helped solve the problem. Mary's thoroughness in everything she did was incredible. She truly has a gift for what she does. I know Mary was working well into the night (well past midnight and then we met her the next morning to get the remaining vases we left so I don't think she slept much!) to clean up and put everything back where it needed to go. She gave 100% of herself throughout this process and it was very evident that she truly and genuinely cared about the bride and the groom, and she protected them when they needed it most. Her professionalism and drive for excellence is unmatched. I would highly recommend Mary and Chisholm Vineyards to any bride and groom! I really do want everyone to know what a valuable asset she is!

We loved our wedding at Tiffin Farm! The views, the versatility of the barn’s style, the cocktail hour location, and much more! The location is conveniently less than 30 minutes from downtown Charlottesville, much more convenient than other venues we looked at. We couldn’t recommend it more to any couple looking for a venue in the Charlottesville area!
