Choosing Avonlea Farms to be our wedding venue in September 2024 was the easiest decision we made while planning our wedding. Not only is it a beautiful venue, but the owners, Clint & Debbie, are wonderful. From the initial tour to our wedding day, Avonlea Farms and their staff made us feel loved, heard, and valued. During the tour, we quickly fell in love with the vintage glass greenhouse, the wedding tree with pews, and the quiet forests. As two nature-lovers, my husband and I immediately knew this was the perfect place to celebrate our love with friends & family. Over two months later, we still have guests telling us how stunning our wedding venue was. Aside from the physical venue, working with the Avonlea Farms staff was a dream. It is clear that the owners, Clint & Debbie, pour their heart and soul into the venue & their couples. Debbie is kind, hard-working, and calm. Clint is easy to communicate with, accommodating, and dedicated. The rest of the staff is just as warm, flexible, and eager to help. I could go on & one about why you should pick Avonlea Farms, but to sum it up… you won’t find a better wedding venue. From the stunning grounds to the hard-working & kind-hearted staff to the unique venue perks (“pay-it-forward” decor, “emergency day-of” kit, golf cart transportation), your wedding day is guaranteed to be a dream. Overall, my husband and I cannot recommend Avonlea Farms enough. Don’t wait, book now! We promise you won’t be disappointed.

Unlike other farm-winery experiences, Eastwood Farm and Winery is located in Charlottesville, Virginia itself. You don't have to drive out to the country to experience the country here!

Set back from the road, our four unique event spaces are private and secluded - just waiting for you to create your special event. Our Winery Cottage is also the perfect space for the wedding party to relax and pamper themselves while getting ready for the ceremony (or for the entire weekend). With our partners, we can provide everything you need, from a beautiful tent provided by Skyline Tent Company, to power and lights, tables and chairs, and world class cuisine served in an elegant yet natural setting.

We had an absolutely incredible wedding at Eastwood in September of 2024. The views are stunning, the tent is so special and you cannot beat the location. Highly, highly recommend. The team at Eastwood is spectacular! Emma's partnership and guidance throughout the process was unparalleled. She took us up to the tent/terrace several times (more times than she needed to) as we figured out our vision for the wedding. Having the cottage on location was incredibly helpful. We were not only able to get organized in the days leading up, but also had a space for people to gather / our flower girls were able to sneak down and go down to bed a bit early too. We are so thrilled that we had our wedding at Eastwood!

Palmyra, VA
  • Up to 150 guests

Couples can host a gorgeous outside ceremony on the concrete patio, or opt for a covered pavilion ceremony. The pavilion is open on three sides to bring the beautiful scenery indoors, but the sides and barn-style doors can be closed in the event of inclement weather. Inside the pavilion, lighting is provided by lanterns and chandeliers, and a large hand-crafted fireplace takes spotlight, with rocks from the farm incorporated into its design. The outdoor patio is attached to the pavilion, creating an extra space that can be used for a ceremony, reception area, or dance floor. A second pavilion was completed in 2018 to provide reception space that is separate from the ceremony site, but within close proximity. This pavilion is completely enclosed and offers a gas fireplace as well as lanterns and chandeliers for lighting. As wedding guests arrive, wedding parties can use the bridal suite to get ready.

  • Both indoor and outdoor options

We absolutely loved this venue. Working w Pam was very easy. The ability to get in the set up the day before was a lifesaver. I would highly recommend this venue. Only downside is there's no way to heat up food and no ice on site. We made it work and would recommend Lazy Z Ranch to anyone. Thank you!!!!

I absolutely adore venues that offer a unique and personal space for couples. Windy Knolls is just that! Their barn space has such a wonderful and rustic charm. The inclusion of tables, chairs, getting ready space, a built-in bar, space that can be used just for catering, and more is truly so helpful. The space was perfect for a 40-person wedding I coordinated. The owner was so kind and just a quick reach away if we needed anything. She also was so trusting and communicated clear expectations, both characteristics are incredibly helpful as a coordinator. If you're looking for a cozy, charming place to get married away from the hustle and bustle, this is it!

There is not one thing we would’ve changed about our wedding and we owe that to the owner listening to all of our wants and needs. They reassured us that rain or shine they had backup plans to still make our day as special as possible. It was the most perfect day and our guests still rave about their experience and about how beautiful the venue is.

Logan is very helpful and communicative. The venue is rustic, charming, and quaint in all the best ways. The views are breathtaking- especially at golden hour! The arches and covered spaces are easy to make your own with decor and provide the perfect backdrop.

Showalter’s Orchard 

5.0

Timberville, VA
  • Select services
  • Outdoor & indoor
  • Starts at $5,300

Over the years, we've enjoyed sharing our farm with our friends and family for their uniquely beautiful weddings. Seeing our extraordinary aerie from their perspective reminded us to take in how special it is, and it inspired us to redesign and renovate a former greenhouse. We’ve created a belvedere of sorts with walls of windows that make a feature of our wondrous view of the Shenandoah Valley.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Has onsite accommodations
  • Surrounded by beautiful vineyards
  • Rustic-chic setting

Venue considerations

  • Does not provide event staff
  • No in-house lighting and sound packages available
  • Does not have a dance floor
Showalter’s was one of two venues on our short list, and we’re very glad we decided to go with them. We wanted a mountain view during the ceremony and the terrace was absolutely perfect. The greenhouse is gorgeous and looks amazing both in person and in photographs and was the perfect backdrop. We served cider and apple cider donuts and our guests loved both. It felt so unique and special! Working with everyone at the venue was incredibly easy, and they were so kind and welcoming to us and felt like they really wanted to make sure our day went well. We booked all of the AirBnBs on the property and would definitely recommend doing so. The “bridal” suite off of the Greenhouse was great for staging and getting a moment away during the wedding, having the extra space for actually getting ready was a very good choice (especially with larger wedding parties and lots of people doing hair and makeup). We also stayed in one of the AirBnBs the night before and afterwards, and being on the property was incredibly convenient as hotels in Harrisonburg are a bit of a hike. The AirBnBs were cute and worked great for our purposes! We stayed in one of the AirBnBs through to the Monday after our Saturday wedding which was great and made it so that we didn’t have to rush getting everything out the morning after the wedding.

Elegance Estates was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was prompt, informative, incredibly friendly and helpful. When we toured the estate for the first time, we knew that it was perfect for the type of event we wanted for our wedding day - intimate, around trees and flowers, but still having the option of being indoors if we needed to for the weather. We had our dinner under the tent on the back patio, and it was so beautiful with light still streaming in. Brittany, their day-of coordinator and overall contact, was amazing - she ran the entire event seamlessly and had all of our personalized decor set up perfectly. We couldn't have imagined a better day, and the value we got for what we paid was unbeatable. All of our friends are still raving about how much fun they had. I can't recommend Elegance Estates enough to any couple looking for the perfect wedding venue.

My husband and I loved our experience with VRV as our wedding venue. From the jump, we loved meeting with Barbara. The day we went venue shopping, we had a number of experiences in the area where we just felt like a number and they truly didn't care about us or getting our business. Barbara was genuinely interested in getting to know us as a couple and we felt cared for and valued. In an area where the wedding industry can be a machine, we felt like people - and more than that, family. The wedding itself was intimate, accommodating, scenic, and everything we would have wanted. Barbara was amazing to work with, as we figured she would be from our amazing first meeting. We really appreciate her for being flexible and accommodating as plans came together and changed leading up to the wedding. In an industry of potentially flakey vendors, VRV/Barbara were extremely helpful in being the glue to hold everything together and keep things moving forward. I also want to give a big shout out to Ben who was the lead organizer for the venue on the wedding day and he was terrific; our grandmas, who needed to be escorted around via golf cart at times, seemed to have the best time and had a constant smile on their face in Ben's company. I also must mention the pure beauty of the venue. My husband and I got married in late October and the trees could not have been more beautiful. The site of the ceremony was stunninh with the mountain backdrop and the barn had a magical feel in the Fall as it turned from day to night. Also the opportunity for the couple to go up to the top of the mountain for pictures was every bit as awesome as I thought it would be. Overall, if I could give the venue 10 stars here, I would. Could not recommend enough

Bellewether Farm was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the beginning, their communication was excellent - they were always prompt in responding to our questions and provided clear details about the logistics. The quality of their work and the overall value was outstanding. The farm is set on beautiful, private land with a pastoral, picturesque view of Mount Weather. The sheep roaming the open fields added such a fun, unique touch that our guests loved. It was the best three days we could have asked for, and the venue was well worth it. We couldn't have imagined a more perfect setting for our special day.

Barren Ridge Vineyards is a small vineyard and winery in the heart of Virginia’s beautiful Shenandoah Valley. John and Shelby Higgs opened the vineyard in 2008, on land purchased by John’s father in 1934 when the farm was known as St. James Orchard. Clearing the land, tending the vines, and transforming the packing barn into a state-of-the-art winery has been a labor of love for the Higgs family. Part of their vision is to see other families celebrate the special occasions and milestones of their lives at Barren Ridge, and they created event spaces characterized by warmth, elegance, rustic beauty, and Southern hospitality, surrounded by a backdrop of spectacular views. Convenient to Staunton, Waynesboro, Harrisonburg, Lexington, Charlottesville, Roanoke as well as Richmond, Barren Ridge Vineyards offers an ideal venue for your celebration, with its friendly and knowledgeable staff, award-winning wines, breath-taking landscape, versatile event spaces, and gracious ambience.

My husband and I had to reschedule our wedding three times due to COVID and were under a time crunch: an upcoming military deployment. We decided LESS THAN A MONTH BEFORE to move our wedding to Barren Ridge. This was one of the best decisions I ever made in my life. In my humble opinion, you will not find a better venue than Barren Ridge Vineyard. Not just because of the unbelievably gorgeous property, the delicious wines and beautifully spaces, but mainly because of Angela and Rob. Let’s first talk about the gorgeous property, we got married out on the beautiful patio. All our guests were able to sit outside on comfortable patio chairs with a view of the vineyard as they watched us exchange vows. Stunning. (You can also get married out in the vineyard, but due to August heat we choose not to). Next the delicious wine. Go to a tasting. AMAZING. Half our guests bought bottles as they left, they loved the wine that much. Beautiful spaces. The tasting room was perfect for a grab and take cheese board (we had them individually wrapped for grab and go COVID style) and bar. The room upstairs is spacious, inviting and gorgeous. We were able to have a dinner, cut the cake and do the first dances with plenty of space to social distance. The room is understated in a way that allows the architecture and the vineyard to shine. I hate over the top venues, but this room matches the décor of a vineyard perfectly. Simple flower arrangements and you’re done! Rob and Angela had different sized tables and other décor options which made setting up the room an easy feat. Now on to Rob and Angela. When I met them, I will be honest, I was in tears. My future husband and I were leaving for Japan for three years in September and if I didn’t pull off an August wedding, I wouldn’t be having a wedding. When I say these two LEAPT into action, I’m not kidding. They leapt! With their unbelievable amount of help we pulled together a wedding in a month. Armed with just a few sketches of seating arrangements and a small number of vendors Angela and Rob pulled off our miracle. I got the most beautiful wedding of my dreams. I also had a lot of COVID “demands” like all the tables with disposable water bottles, silverware and all food in to go containers. They helped make that work with the caterer. They allowed us to play music over the blue tooth speaker. The BRV team is amazing. When you get married at Barren Ridge, you choose to have Barren Ridge a part of your life forever. You open Barren Ridge wine every year on your anniversary. You have your birthday parties on the patio. You bring your kids on a picnic in the vines. When our original wedding was canceled, I was devastated. Little did I know I would still have the wedding of my dreams. It was better than the dream one I imagined (even with COVID). Our wedding day was so perfect. Barren Ridge is a place I will call home and a place I will keep coming back to, year after year. We are so lucky to have gotten married here. If you choose BRV, it will be the best wedding decision you ever make (after maybe the groom lol). (p.s. If you are planning a microwedding, Angela and Rob have been doing them since August 2020. They are experts now. Our wedding spread 0 cases of COVID and that’s in no small part to the diligence of the BRV team)

We got married at Briar Patch in October 2024 and I cannot say enough about how wonderful the venue was and how kind and communicative the venue owners were. Any time we had questions they were so quick to answer. I loved that we could have any vendors we wanted, but they also provided a list of wonderful recommendations. The price was also wonderful for the area! Having the venue for the whole weekend was such a great experience for our whole bridal party who stayed onsite.
