We had the most wonderful experience working with A Little Wedding Garden for our wedding. From our very first interaction, the staff was friendly, professional, and respectful. They went above and beyond to make sure our day was truly special. The area itself was absolutely beautiful, with lots of lovely floral decor that created a truly romantic atmosphere. Even though it was raining on our wedding day, they were so accommodating and let us come back another day to take photos in their gorgeous garden. They even gave me a couple of roses to take home as a sweet parting gift. I would highly recommend A Little Wedding Garden to any couple looking for a stunning, intimate wedding venue with incredible service.

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!!

We won a giveaway for this venue and had no idea what to expect- but the owner, Logan, walked us through everything and helped deliver a wedding we will never forget! 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. The get ready space and parking is not ideal, but they have come such a long way in a short amount of time and continuing to make improvements every day as a brand new venue! I’d definitely recommend Bentwood Farms for your wedding.

  • Select services

  • Starts at $950

The Carolyn Baldwin Lake Pavilion is named after our dear loved one, Carolyn Varner Baldwin, who unexpectedly passed away in 2008 due to an allergic reaction. She was the matriarch of our family and a beautiful, one-in-a-billion type of person with a generous and loving spirit. She was a talented gardener, a devoted fisherwoman who could out-fish the best of 'em (we're talking "sun-up-til-sundown" kind of fishing), was creative and artsy, and never knew a stranger. We felt it only fitting to name this lovely place in her memory. We are a family-operated business. Joanna is the General Manager and works with each client to accommodate varying event needs. She handles a wide range of aspects of the business, from answering questions about what will make your event run smoothly to giving you layout suggestions. She has worked with over 200 wedding & event clients over the last 10 years and has learned quite a bit about weddings & event planning through her experiences.

The Depot in downtown Orange, Virginia is everything you could hope for in a special event venue. I have had the privilege of shooting 2 separate events in The Depot's event spaces, and I hope to return for more. Each space within the depot is thoughtfully designed with beautiful details, making it the perfect backdrop for any special celebration. I typically try to avoid indoor venues due to a general lack of quality lighting/backdrop opportunities as a photographer, but I have loved every minute that I've worked at The Depot. Everywhere you look presents a new backdrop opportunity, and the spaces are filled with ample natural light during the daytime. Working with the Grelen Events team is always a breeze, and they are eager to resolve any day-of questions or concerns. You really can't go wrong booking The Depot for your next celebration/event!
