Virginia Beach offers a stunning array of wedding venues that you'll love exploring; from oceanfront resorts and waterfront restaurants to historic properties with character. You can choose iconic spots like The Cavalier Resort with its presidential history and perfect gazebo setting or go for modern luxury at the Hilton Virginia Beach Oceanfront or The Gala 417. This coastal city gives you that perfect blend of beach charm and sophisticated celebration spaces for your special day.

The appeal of Virginia Beach for your wedding goes way beyond those gorgeous sandy shores. The Resort Area puts you right on the Atlantic with direct ocean views while Sandbridge Beach offers a more secluded feel with natural dunes framing your ceremony. If you're dreaming of a sunset celebration the Chesapeake Bay Beach area delivers spectacular evening skies over calmer waters. You'll love how venues like The Lesner Inn blend indoor and outdoor spaces; imagine saying your vows on their waterfront deck while overlooking the beautiful Lynnhaven River with your guests enjoying the perfect coastal backdrop.

Your wedding budget in Virginia Beach will vary based on your venue choice guest count and what season you book. Here's what you can typically expect for different size celebrations:

For just the venue itself you're looking at around $9,262 on average which is about 18% of your total budget for a wedding with 150 guests. This typically ranges from $8,300 on the lower end to $10,200 for premium spots; all pretty much in line with the national average of $6,500-$12,000 for wedding venues.

You'll find excellent accessibility options throughout Virginia Beach. The Virginia Beach Convention Center gives you centrally located elegant spaces designed with accessibility for all your guests in mind. If waterfront luxury matters to you The Gala 417 offers fully accessible facilities with staff ready to accommodate your needs. Lesner Inn provides wheelchair-accessible spaces while still delivering those breathtaking Chesapeake Bay and Lynnhaven River views for up to 300 guests. And the DoubleTree by Hilton Oceanfront combines accessible rooms and facilities with gorgeous ocean vistas your guests will remember.

You absolutely can include loved ones who can't attend in person. The Virginia Beach Convention Center has the tech infrastructure you need for professional-quality live streaming of your ceremony. The Virginia Aquarium offers unique underwater backdrops that create amazing virtual experiences for remote guests. Lesner Inn's scenic waterfront setting gives you creative opportunities to share your special moments virtually. You can even discuss advanced options with venues like VR integration interactive platforms for real-time guest participation and ways to incorporate social media so everyone feels included in your celebration.

Your wedding menu deserves to be as memorable as your venue. The Lesner Inn is known for delicious customizable catering that you can tailor to your preferences. Steinhilber's Restaurant has been serving exceptional fine dining since 1939 in their gorgeous Lynnhaven Inlet location. If oceanfront dining excites you The Attic at Waterman's delivers quality cuisine right along the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. And Blue Pete's Restaurant offers sophisticated waterfront dining perfect if you're planning a wedding where the food takes center stage.

Summer gives you those long daylight hours perfect for sunset ceremonies but expect to pay premium rates and navigate more tourists. Fall brings more comfortable temperatures and fewer crowds while still capturing beautiful coastal vibes. Winter weddings benefit from significant discounts at oceanfront hotels though you'll want heated backup plans for any outdoor elements. Spring showcases gardens at their peak bloom while avoiding summer's humidity; giving you gorgeous settings without the extreme heat or biggest crowds of high season.
