We worked closely with Laure (as did my Mom...) and she was incredible. Patient, quick to respond, positive, and made me so confident that all things related to our reception would go smoothly. I did not envision getting married in a hotel, but Laure and the team at the Westin made us SO glad we hosted our reception there!

The Athenaeum is a beautifully preserved antebellum building, now serving as an art gallery.

Please note wheelchair access is available only on the main floor. A/V equipment is available but limited. The Athenaeum is available for viewing during gallery hours or by appointment. Gallery hours are Thursday-Sunday from 12:00pm-4:00pm. The Athenaeum is closed on holidays. Advance notice for viewing the Athenaeum is appreciated.

Venue considerations

  • No on-premises lodging options
  • Requires outside catering services
  • Does not have a dance floor
We recently had our wedding at the Athenaeum in Old Town Alexandria, and it was a truly special occasion! The venue was just the right size for the wedding we wanted and the style made us think of the place we got engaged, on the Acropolis in Athens. The venue has a lovely indoor gallery space as well as a courtyard and we hat our ceremony outdoors and the reception indoors. A few things you should keep in mind if you are considering the Athenaeum: the space is on the small side, which we liked, but may not suffice for some weddings; you have to choose one of their recommended caterers or pay an added fee (though we were very happy with the caterers we went with and they knew exactly how the venue worked!); the venue does not include anything beyond the actual space, all vendors and services need to be hired separately. For us, this all worked out well and we felt our guests had a great time! The venue also makes for a beautiful backdrop for photos, just make sure to reserve the parking spaces in front of it. Our only minor issue was that the rental manager was not super responsive, but his coworker was, so it wasn't a problem in the end, I just didn't know who to reach out to at first. All in all, we are so happy we got to have our wedding at the Athenaeum! The art on display on the day was cheerful and modern and everything went according to plan. So excited to see more picture and relive the special day!

  • Does not provide event staff
  • Does not have a dance floor
A beautiful boutique hotel. We chose the Morrison House for our 75-person wedding in May and it proved to be a beautiful setting with a perfect mix of modern, classic, and vintage style, exactly what we hoped for this event. The bridal suite was smaller than others and not specifically setup for weddings (other venues had large mirrors and hardware hung high on the walls for dresses etc). 3-4 people sat on the couch while two makeup artists setup in the sitting room and the hair stylist in the bedroom. One issue related to the room- they booked a high-ranking Marriott member in the bridal suite with a 4PM checkout, despite us having booked the hotel and that room Friday-Sunday. We arrived at 12 on Friday as discussed couldn’t access the suite until after rehearsal. I used a separate guest room to hold all of our bridal suite belongings and get ready. We didn’t move into the bridal suite until the evening. Ceremony: Plenty of room for our guests to be seated on the outside brick driveway. The front stairs made a beautiful and easy location for photos. The DJ was able to access power for mics and music without issue. Cocktail hour/bar: The hotel allocated 1 bartender for the event, which we felt would be insufficient to provide drinks to 75 people after the ceremony. A second bartender was added for a small fee. We also requested our signature cocktail be prepared and ready for guests after the ceremony to ease the rush to the bar. We could not use the room beyond the bar (restaurant area) bc it was where they kept all the additional furniture and vendor equipment. The space fit our needs and activities (photobooth, guest book, and “sip and solve” crossword). Reception: the ballroom is on the smaller side but fit 75 ppl comfortably. We had a 12x12 dance floor and two tables had to be placed on it for dinner then removed prior to our first dance/dancefloor opening. We designed our schedule to accommodate the space/table removals and it worked out well! We had a sweetheart table in the front with plenty of room for the dancefloor and table setups. All in all we were able to get a dessert table, 4’ DJ table, sweetheart table, dancefloor, and 75 guests seated in the space. Hotel staff and food service were attentive to our needs and very approachable. We had issues with the venue coordinator/catering director, which I believe is a contracted service for Marriott (Sage Hospitality Group). It involved communication- the original contact was wonderful but left a few months before the wedding. With the change in staff came difficult communication- emails being lost, voice messages left with no return, etc. I spent around 6 weeks trying to contact the new venue/event coordinator with no success. We then hired an outside wedding coordinator and it was the best decision. After similar difficulty, she was able to connect with the venue and begin finalizing details just two weeks before the wedding. The venue coordinator seemed to brush over our concerns (about the 1 bartender, setup/timeline) but the hired coordinator was able to help advocate and take the lead. The day of our event went flawlessly from my perspective, but I attribute that to my hired coordinator. I saw the venue coordinator only once on the wedding day. I’d highly recommend hiring your own if you were to hold a wedding here, I just didn’t get the impression that my wedding would be executed to our expectation with the current catering director. Overall we had a great day!

Tucked back in the woods it opens up to a beautiful plantation that sits along the Pumunkey River. The views and landscape are breathtaking. From the flower gardens to the weeping willow cascading over the ponds , it’s romantic and beautiful. My husband and I got married at the estate in 2021. We stayed on the property in the Carriage House the night before and the night of our wedding. The Carriage House is also used for any guests that want to stay at the Estate. We just recently stayed again for our one year anniversary! It was just as wonderful as it was for our wedding! The staff here is amazing. They made sure we had everything we needed and they are so thoughtful. I definitely recommend Cumberland. There’s plenty of beautiful scenery for the perfect wedding photos. This place is like a fairytale. So magical! Oh, did I mention there’s a pool too?!

I just got engaged and have zero interest in the big wedding thing - my family is annoying and I’m shy so I can’t imagine being in front of everyone I know professing my love. This is a really perfect solution for someone like me and my SO. We plan to keep it intimate for just the two of us, and the chapel has everything we need to get hitched quickly and easily. I loved the vintage vibe of the space and the 3 owners that I met at the grand opening (we happened to be walking by) were incredibly sweet and gracious. I can’t wait!!

This is the perfect wedding venue if you want a historic venue and have a small to medium wedding! We had about 50 guests, and felt that it was the perfect amount for the space. The Linden Row team was a dream to work with! Alexa was incredibly responsive to all of our emails. Their partnership with Groovin’ Gourmets truly made our planning so much easier as the staff have great relationships and are used to working together. For all that was included, we felt the price was fair, however keep in mind that in the event of rain, you will also need to work with one of their approved tent vendors since there is not an adequate indoor space for a wedding. This is not their fault, but something we wished we talked through more in the early stages of planning! The room blocks were super easy to set up and we were given a log in to track who had already booked a room. For any guests that are staying in the hotel, it was easy for them to get breakfast on site. All of our guests said they loved their stay at Linden Row. There was another event in downtown Richmond the weekend of our wedding, so parking was a challenge, but again, it is not Linden Row’s fault, just something to keep in mind when booking a room or a wedding.

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!!

Dover Hall is is such an amazing venue and only made better by the staff and service. My wife and I were married here in March 2023 and could not have asked for a better venue. From the moment we toured Dover Hall back in 2022, we knew this would be the place for us. From the beginning, Rachel was such a pleasure to work with and we can't say enough great things about her. As we approached our date, Silvia came on-board and took the lead without hesitation. She was instrumental in organizing all of our details and worked so well with our Planner and the rest of our vendors. The week of the wedding was made so much easier with the help and guidance of both Silvia and Rachel, along with the rest of the Dover Hall staff. Each and every one of them was kind, personable, knowledgeable, and kept our thoughts and wishes at the top of their priority from Day 1. The wedding itself was truly amazing; everything we had dreamed of and more. From the outdoor ceremony, to the cocktail hour, to the ballroom reception, all of the logistics of the day were handled and executed flawlessly. The food was absolutely amazing and I cannot understate how many compliments we received from our guests. It only added to the amazing night they helped us pull off; we could not have had the wedding of our dreams without Dover Hall!!!

My son recently got married at Earlyhouse, and the entire experience was nothing short of perfect. The venue was gorgeous. Everywhere you looked, there was a stunning backdrop for wedding photos. We were especially grateful to have the day-of coordinated by Katie, who worked behind the scenes to coordinate with all of us (coming from Florida, Texas, Maryland, Tennessee, & New York) and our vendors, she even managed my sons wedding timeline. It was evident that she genuinely cared about making the day special for our family. Her dedication and professionalism shined upon us the whole time. Because of Katie's expertise and dedication, we were able to relax and truly enjoy the day without any stress or concerns. Knowing that everything was in capable hands allowed us to be fully present in the moment, celebrating our son and new daughter-in-laws special day. I cannot recommend Earlyhouse enough-both for its breathtaking beauty and the exceptional staff who made our sons wedding a day we will cherish forever.

My wife Brittany and I have had a fantastic and transformative experience dancing at Forever Dancing Ballroom! We found them at one of their open house events and immediately booked a package of lessons with Fabio for our wedding. Our dance lessons were always a fun break from wedding planning, and we left every dance lesson feeling better than we did when we walked in. It was exciting to learn new moves and choreography at every lesson. At first, we thought the techniques were difficult, but with practice and good coaching, we were able to learn the steps and perform a romantic and fun first dance at our wedding. It was thrilling to do our dance in front of such a supportive and enthusiastic crowd - we absolutely loved the magic moment of our first dance! My wife and I had a casual interest in dancing before we worked on the first dance with Fabio, but since then, we've become hooked and now we take group classes and have continued with private lessons as well. Jennifer Bonini manages the studio classes, billing, private lessons, events, and more. She is friendly, funny, and supportive, and very excellent at keeping everything organized. A talented dancer herself, Jennifer has also shared some excellent dance coaching with us from time to time. Other coaches at the studio are similarly personable and welcoming to all. The entire vibe at Forever Dancing is simply perfect for those looking for an approachable dance studio that will keep you smiling, moving, and have a blast dancing. I highly encourage you to visit Forever Dancing Ballroom as a studio: for wedding first dance lessons, group classes, cool workshops, and a fulfilling way to spend your time!

My husband and I got married in December '24 and had a great experience with the Sheraton Pentagon City. The hotel is really close to DCA so it was super easy for our guests to book AND the rate was AMAZING. Having a wedding so close to the holidays made travel much more expensive so having a hotel that was so reasonably priced was such a HUGE win. There was some construction in the surrounding area but none of our guests had anything negative to say about it, so if you see this don't be concerned. The stunning view from the ballroom spoke for itself! We worked most closely with John and Christian but the Sheraton team was huge and we met many different people responsible for our event. They are a well oiled machine so you don't need to worry about what happens if someone gets sick or is stuck in traffic on your big day! The rooms were lovely, with stunning views of all of DC! Overall I would HIGHLY recommend having your wedding here :)

They need a 10-star rating! So, I was on TikTok looking for bridal shower places when I stumbled upon this beauty. So, I asked my fiancé at the time, if you know me then what you know about this place? He said, you like it because it has all those crystals and chandeliers! I instantly hit the contact us button. I began communicating with Pura who was very personable. I said OK let me go look at these reviews. I went on every page I knew that had reviews and they were 5-star no complaints. I said well let me book to go see it in person because pictures can be deceiving. We scheduled a tour of the event and when I tell you this place can't be touched with a 10 foot pole. I have not found a Venue yet that can TOP this one. From the time you walk in, to the ballrooms, the best dressing area and even the bathrooms are so clean you can eat off the food (not that you would but that's how clean and neat the place is). Pura thanks for all the phone messages day or night one thing for sure she was never too busy to get back with me. She was very accommodating. Farah the decor was gorgeous. Andrea thanks for pulling things together as the coordinator alongside Pura. Every time I visited; they made you feel welcomed. My family talked about the level of hospitality that you all provided at the rehearsal and wedding. They made sure all my vendors were in place to take the stress off of me on my wedding day. The overall service gives you royal and rich vibes.

The Country Club of Culpeper was a bit difficult to get in touch with at times, but their venue and service made up for it. The outdoor and indoor spaces were clean, gorgeous, affordable and perfect for our wedding day. Jen, our event coordinator, was amazing and accomplished everything we asked with such grace and patience, even during the stressful changes that happened on the big day. The food was absolutely delicious and all our guests complimented it. While they went through three different event coordinators from when we booked them to our wedding day, which was definitely stressful, Jen was the perfect fit for us and was very understanding of the changes. We got the most beautiful photos in the venue and on the golf course. Overall, the Country Club of Culpeper provided a beautiful, high-quality setting for our special day.
