  A perfect day!

  Heather, Monique, and the entire Golden Horseshoe team gave us the most magical May wedding day (even in the rain). When we started our venue search nearly a year and a half ago, we quickly became overwhelmed at the options, cost, and general task of planning a wedding. We toured the Golden Horseshoe Inn on a rainy April day and knew immediately that it was the place for us. Monique was welcoming and helpful on our tour, so we knew we’d be in good hands. Overall, we wanted our day to feel intimate and stress free and the Golden Horsehoe Inn certainly provides that. We could not have asked for a better day and many of our friends and family remarked that it was the best wedding they’ve been too (they could be biased, but I happen to agree)! We chose to have Heather as our photographer and all of the pictures turned out lovely. We will enjoy looking back on them and reminiscing on our perfect day for the years to come.

  The BEST experience!

  Booking GHI for our wedding was the absolute best decision! They exceeded our already high expectations for an all inclusive venue. We were able to plan our wedding in less than 4 months; from the beginning, Heather was so fun to work with. She has a personality that just exudes excitement for you and your day in a way that is contagious - you can't talk to her without becoming giddy about the day you are planning together. She answered all our questions and helped us to organize our vision for the day-of; she was so helpful and fun that we booked our date before we ever toured GHI! Our coordination meeting was the first time we actually saw the venue, and we were able to realize how great of a decision we made. Monique and Heather were solely focused on what we, as the couple, wanted for our day. They were attuned to our style, personality, and goals. They also considered details that I never would have thought of myself, both in style and in guest experience and safety/health (e.g., magnetic vs pin boutonnière). They cared so much to even ask about any guests with special considerations, physically or emotionally, and kept detailed track of anything and everything we told them. Booking with GHI allowed me to only focus on what I really wanted to, which was finding my dress, getting together a guest list, and arranging guests at tables. Otherwise, they handled it (according to what we had picked out)! At the coordination meeting we sat down, pointed at what we did and didn't like from a look-book, and from there it was all handled. It was so fun on the day-of to show up and have everything just be together, beautiful, and exactly like we had pictured it! Getting to surprise ourselves with what the flowers exactly looked like (we gave generally what we liked, but you don't pick and approve exactly the arrangement), how the tables came together, etc. was so fun. Monique and Heather on the day-of were still so extremely focused on making sure everyone, but especially my husband and I, had a good time. For example, it was cold and rainy on our day, and once we came inside following our outside photos Monique had a cup of coffee in my hands before I could even sit down! Similarly, following our ceremony she had a water in my hand before I could get anywhere! Monique even gave both my husband and I a small "coaching" session before the ceremony, where she hyped us up and simultaneously calmed us down, reminding us it wasn't a performance and it was about us! The entire day I felt so pampered and cared for by them. Beyond that, Monique showed her genuine care and concern for our guests. For example, one friend of mine was pregnant, and I happened to seat her at our last table to be served food (oops!), but Monique had already asked her which dessert she really wanted and, when their table was called, pulled her to the front and had set some aside just for her to make sure she got what she wanted! Decor-wise, we had some semi-specific ideas, like for our wedding favors (coffee mugs), that Monique was able to take and run with and completely execute it to our vision. In addition, Heather was an energetic, uplifting, and committed photographer; by committed, I mean she ran around in the rain with us to get photos so that we could have those memories! As someone who can be a bit photo-shy, Heather pumped me up so much that I couldn't help but to pose and smile and enjoy the attention. Heather was attentive all throughout the day to what photos we wanted, what would look good, and helping tell us where to stand, how to move, etc. - all without being overwhelming or pushy. We are two months out and both of our families are still talking about how wonderful it was, how easy it was for them, and how much they loved Monique and Heather! I agree, and am so glad to have been able to fully enjoy my wedding planning and my wedding day. We are so in love with our photos and frequently talk about how much fun we had on our day; even in all the rain! We would recommend GHI over and over again!

  Incredible!

  The Golden Horseshoe is a hidden gem nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Standardsville, VA. I couldn’t be more thankful that we found this venue for my daughter’s wedding. Monique and Heather, the heart and soul of The Golden Horseshoe, orchestrated a wedding that was nothing short of magical. Their dedication and attention to detail ensured that every aspect of Cassie and Jancalo's special day was flawless, leaving them free to enjoy their day without a care in the world. Monique's expert coordination kept the day running seamlessly, ensuring that every moment unfolded just as Cassie and Jancalo had envisioned. And Heather took the most breathtaking photographs, preserving memories that Cassie and Jancalo will cherish for a lifetime. This place should be at the top of any newly engaged couple’s list of venues. Many happy memories were made and it was a great way for Cassie and Jancalo to begin their married life together.

  January Wedding at Golden Horseshoe Inn

  We cannot say enough good things about the Golden Horseshoe Inn. Heather and Monique do an amazing job at understanding the vibe you want for your wedding. It was as simple as giving Heather our wedding colors and she put together decor that we absolutely loved. I never worried for one second that the venue wasn’t going to be decorated to my liking, they have quite an eye for the details. The day of the wedding, they were so great. They took care of our every need and truly served us. They made our special day even more magical. We highly recommend them for your wedding venue!

  The best choice I ever made!

  I cannot even put into words how special Heather and Monique are at GHI.
  
  I was very hesitant to even have a wedding, so the thought of planning one sent me into an instant panic attack (typical millennial, right). I chose the afternoon tea wedding, and am so grateful I did. They bore the burden of all the details while ensuring I had a say to make it feel my own with my own special flare. The two of them make the perfect team, Heather was detail oriented and had the perfect vision while Monique was probably the only reason I made it through, she's so down to earth and helped calmed my nerves through the entire experience. They are truly good humans and the absolute best at what they do.
  
  If you're like me and aren't one of those girls who dreamed their whole life of their wedding day and don't really have a clear vision or even begin to know where to start with planning your big day, I cannot recommend GHI enough, they help you every step of the way and the end result is breathtaking.

  Stress-Free Dream Wedding

  Finding a wedding venue that was as accepting as we are was a priority for us. The Golden Horseshoe Inn wasn't just accepting, they were incredible! From the very beginning, Heather and Monique made us feel welcome, supported, and excited about our big day.
  
  What truly sets the Golden Horseshoe Inn apart is their all-inclusive approach. We were blown away by the beautiful location nestled near a national forest. The historic house itself provided a stunning backdrop for our ceremony and reception. This all-inclusive approach took away the immense stress of wedding planning, allowing us to truly focus on enjoying our day. Heather and Monique handled everything with such professionalism and care that we never once felt rushed or overwhelmed.
  
  There's a reason why Golden Horseshoe Inn has such a stellar reputation! During dinner, I managed to get a small cut. Monique and the day-of staff were absolute lifesavers. They sprung into action, found a bandaid in a flash, and got me back to celebrating with my family in no time. It was a small moment, but it perfectly exemplified the attentiveness and care they put into every detail.
  
  The best part? We were able to arrive hours before the ceremony and truly relax in the beautiful dressing rooms. This allowed us to savor the pre-wedding moments with each other without feeling rushed. Heather and Monique truly understand how important it is for couples to feel comfortable and stress-free on their wedding day. They go above and beyond to make sure of it. They even take the time upfront to ask thoughtful questions about potential guest dynamics and ensure they capture special moments with loved ones.
  
  Heather deserves a special shout-out for her incredible photography skills. She has a knack for capturing genuine emotions and the joy of the day. It's clear how passionate she is about making couples happy on their wedding day, and it truly shows in her work.
  
  We can't thank the Golden Horseshoe Inn team enough for making our wedding dreams a reality. They created a warm, welcoming, and stress-free environment that allowed us to celebrate our love with our family and friends in the most perfect way imaginable. In fact, we trusted Heather and Monique so much, we booked the venue without even seeing it in person! And let me tell you, it was one of the best decisions we could have ever made. If you're looking for an LGBTQ+ friendly venue with an all-inclusive approach and a team that goes the extra mile, look no further than the Golden Horseshoe Inn! We couldn't recommend it enough.

  Stress-Free Dream Come True

  Don't hesitate to book this venue!
  As an anxious, Type A millennial I was beyond stressed when I started planning my wedding. Trying to find an affordable, beautiful place to hold it was quickly becoming overwhelming when I found the Golden Horseshoe Inn.
  Their website spoke directly to me, toting an all-inclusive experience with full planning, which was too good to pass up.
  My now husband and I jumped on the opportunity for a tour and let me just say it was love at first sight.
  Heather, Monique and their staff made our day absolutely perfect. We had our planning meeting in which we picked out flowers, our cake (which is included! Can you believe that!), linens, our photography package and goals; the whole kit and caboodle really. By the time the Big Day arrived, we had a full itinerary which made the day stress free as I knew what was expected of me, when and where I would need to be.
  The space to get ready in was a blessing as well. The Cabinet of Wonders had everything, including a curling iron small enough to mimic my natural curls and tuxedo studs! Truly a lifesaver as the location is a bit out of the way.
  Our wedding was everything I ever dreamed of. The team took care of everything! They even fixed the time that catering arrived to make sure everything was perfect for my guests!
  We also purchased their photography and videography packages which we also absolutely love. We can't wait to see the rest of our photos and our video.
  Overall, I'd give this place a 1000000/10 if I could. Absolutely perfect!

  Heather and Monique are AMAZING!

  I cannot recommend Golden Horseshoe enough. Our wedding day was an absolute fairy tale, and we can't thank Heather and Monique enough. They handle every little detail. There's very little extra planning that you have to do. And, they made us feel unbelievably comfortable from the moment you walk through the door. They took fantastic care of us all day long. Heather's photography is top notch, and Monique is an amazing officiant. On top of it all, relative to the average cost of a wedding, they are super affordable. I highly recommend Golden Horseshoe!

  Amazing wedding venue!

  My husband and I can't thank Heather, Monique and the entire team at GHI enough for helping make our wedding day so magical and perfect in every way. From the very beginning of our planning process, Heather was so attentive, responsive and genuinely excited to help us bring our vision to life.
  
  The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous - the perfect backdrop for wedding photos. But what truly made our experience outstanding was the GHI team. They attended to every detail and were so accommodating to our specific needs and schedule.
  
  On the day of, everything ran so smoothly thanks to their expertise and coordination. All of our guests kept remarking about the beautiful decor, delicious food, and more. My husband and I truly felt carefree and able to cherish every moment with our loved ones. Heather and Monique work very hard to make sure the day is focused on the bride and groom.
  
  All in all, Monique and Heather went above and beyond to ensure our special day was everything we dreamed of and more. I can't express how grateful we are and highly recommend GHI to any couple looking for a truly stress free and magical wedding experience. Heather and her team will take your wedding vision and help make it a reality in the most seamless way. We will cherish the memories made at GHI forever :)

  Truly the very best at what they do

  Heather and her team made our day a dream come true. They made planning a breeze and worked with us the whole way to make sure the day was exactly as we wanted it. They were so warm and kind, and they all made the day so special. They wanted the day to go just as wonderfully as we did, and it showed in everything that they did. I am forever grateful to everyone involved at the golden horseshoe for giving us our picture perfect wedding.

  Highly recommend GHI for the perfect micro wedding

  Heather and her team exceeded our expectations. They listened to what we wanted and followed through to make sure every little detail was absolutely perfect. It was so nice to walk into the venue on the morning of our wedding and see it set up without having to lift a finger. It took all the stress out of planning a wedding and allowed us to focus on the fun details. In addition to the wedding details, the photos are incredible. The way Heather captured the details really tells a story and will allow us to relive this day forever. The mountain photoshoot was probably my favorite part of the day. Though it wasn’t the original plan, we decided to do it prior to the wedding so our guests wouldn’t have to wait. Having the private first look and that time alone together provided the perfect opportunity for us to have an intimate experience to enjoy each other before our family and friends arrived. Since our big day, we have had so many friends and family members comment on how nice the venue was and what an exceptional job Heather, Monique, and the rest of the staff did to make sure everything and everyone was well taken care of. We wanted a Micro Wedding without sacrificing the special moments, and GHI gave us exactly what we were looking for.

  GHI was amazing! Highly recommend.

  Our day was perfect! Heather. Monique, and the whole crew handled almost everything. They knew what would likely not go as planned and was ready. Heather took amazing pictures. This place is just as beautiful and amazing as the website makes it look.

  You will not regret booking GHI!

  I cannot recommend GHI highly enough, you would be absolutely crazy to not book your wedding here. My partner and I are introverted and knew we wanted a small gathering with family only, with a focus on low stress planning, a fun event, and getting married in the mountains. Heather (owner, photographer, wedding planner extraordinaire), Monique, and the GHI team are the fairy godmothers of weddings, we couldn't have asked for a more perfect event. My partner informed me afterwards that he was surprised how fun it was, and how smoothly everything went. Heather has a general wedding plan she follows to ensure a smooth and wonderful event, she then gives you the option to customize (add or take things out) to personalize your event to what you and your partner want. Just to give a breakdown of what you are getting by booking with GHI:
  
  All of this was included by booking (with options to remove them if not wanted!): beautiful venue in the mountains, wedding planner (Heather), appetizers, non alcoholic beverages, tables, linens of your color choice and design, decor closet access, three tier cake (with customizable cake flavor, icing, and styling), bridal flower of your color choices, boutonniere for him, and cake flowers, set up and take down, food service if you choose to cater, your choice of outdoor garden ceremony or cozy indoor ceremony, licensed officiant if you don't have one, two getting ready rooms, and plenty of parking
  
  The following were add ons that GHI offers, for an additional cost, that we decided to purchase: extra flowers for decoration, photography provided by Heather (she knows the best spots of her venue!), a Shenandoah mountain shoot also with Heather, chafing dishes for our caterer
  
  The following were things not included that we brought separately (just to show how much GHI provides, and how little planning you need to do!): a caterer (recommended by heather), bridal hair/makeup (also recommended by Heather), some extra personalized decor items that were meaningful to us
  
  Even with the add ons, this venue was WELL BELOW our budget. We are waiting to receive our official photos from Heather, but she sent us our previews and we are so happy with how they turned out! I cannot stress enough how amazing our experience was with GHI, we will remember our wedding forever and we are blessed that Heather, Monique, and the GHI team made our wedding a dream come true

  GHI is the perfect wedding venue

  Five stars doesn't feel like enough for the amazing experience we had with the Golden Horseshoe Inn for our July wedding! We delayed wedding planning for a while after we got engaged because it made us anxious -- weddings are expensive and they are a lot of work. But with the Golden Horseshoe, we had a team of professionals help us to plan and coordinate the intimate wedding of our dreams for a small fraction of the money we would have paid to have this experience elsewhere. And this team is unmatched. Heather and Monique are a perfect planning duo, and they helped keep us on track every single step of the way with checklists and reminders, and a meeting that helped us to understand what it was that we truly wanted our wedding to be. Heather is also a truly amazing photographer -- we worked with her for both our engagement shoot and the wedding day photography and all of the images are phenomenal. She is very kind and disarming and was able to help both of us feel comfortable in front of the camera. She also was able to capture so many small and meaningful moments throughout the day. Monique was a wonderful officiant, and a perfect day-of wedding coordinator for us; whenever either of us needed direction or reassurance during the ceremony and reception Monique always appeared and pointed us in the right direction. So, if you're looking for an affordable, intimate, and absolutely beautiful wedding venue with a top-notch team of staff who will help you have the wedding day of your dreams, look no further than the Golden Horseshoe! We can't thank Heather and her team enough!

  The most stress-free beatiful wedding possible!

  If you want the most stress-free, beautiful wedding as possible, book here! Heather and Monique were extremely helpful in coordinating and planning out our big day! We knew from the first day of sitting down and talking about what was offered, there was no need to shop around for other venues. Right away you get that warm feeling that they really care about ceremony and you are not just a paycheck. The day of the wedding, all I had to worry about was walking down the isle, everything else was taken care of which allowed us to be in the moment the entire time.
  
  A large selection of the decor was provided for us to use and if we wanted to add any of our own decor they found the perfect place for it to be displayed at. All the flowers were provided by a local florist that they work with we, just needed to guide the colors and type of flowers we liked and they did the rest.
  
  Were it possible, I would provide 10 stars as the experience from not only the bride and grooms perspective but, that of our guests was phenomenal. To capture the moment by getting professional photos with amazing shots also, book the photography package.
  
  Thank you so much Heather and Monique for hosting our day that we will never forget!

  Golden Horseshoe Inn - A Bride's Dream

  I could not be more thankful that we chose the Golden Horseshoe Inn(GHI) for our venue! It is seriously the best bang for your buck. Wedding coordinator? Included. Officiant? Included! Chairs, tables, linens? Included! Centerpieces? Included! Bouquet/Boutonniere? Included! Cake? Included (and oh, so yummy!)! Photography? Included for a little extra- plus the option to do a really stunning Mountain Photoshoot that I highly, highly recommend. It was seriously one of our favorite moments of the whole night and let us take a breather after all the action. Heather and Monique are amazing, and walk you through the entire planning process. They take on a LOT of the planning burden and are happy to answer any and all questions you may have (I would know. I emailed them ALL of the questions. And Heather answered kindly and knowledgeably every time). Heather is also such a gifted photographer. She helped make my camera shy partner and I feel comfortable and added so many small details to the day that made for gorgeous photographs and a great guest experience. She has a truly great personality and I would go back to her if we ever needed photos in the future. And we got the sneak preview within 5 days of the wedding. Who does that?! Amazing. Did I mention we actually got to eat dinner? As a planner I was really worried I wouldn’t get to enjoy the day because I would be too busy stressing the details…but that really wasn’t the case. GHI stressed the details and I got to really, really just enjoy the day and be present. I truly felt like I got a dream wedding at a budget price. Thank you GHI, for making dreams come true! I could not be more grateful. Choose GHI- you won’t regret it!!!!

  Could not recommend more!

  If you are looking for the BEST place to have your intimate wedding celebration, this is it! We were drawn to the Golden Horseshoe Inn (GHI) by Heather’s incredible mountain-top photos, and were absolutely blown away with everything about our GHI micro-wedding experience. Heather, Monique, and the rest of the GHI team executed our wedding vision to perfection — they are not only incredibly experienced and professional, but were also a joy to work with throughout each stage from our initial planning to their behind-the-scenes action on our special day. Our ~20 guests had a blast and were extremely impressed too. Any question or update we communicated was responded to immediately, and our wedding day was worry and stress-free! We hands-down recommend GHI to any couple — if we could give them more than 5/5 stars we would. :)

  We loved our wedding at GHI!

  This is the way weddings should be: simple, beautiful, and meaningful! GHI does everything: cake, flowers, décor, and photography! We visited once before deciding to book. Once we booked, we had a planning meeting, and then we had our wedding. The only things we had to do were get the suit and dress, arrange for someone do my hair, make a play list, and provide some personal items to make our décor unique. GHI made everything SO easy, and the whole day was beautiful and enjoyed by our family and friends.
  
  Heather does an amazing job with photography. She knows what looks good and is great at coaching people to get the best pictures, even for those of us who are less photogenic. The skyline picture session was stunning and well worth the small extra fee. Monique was so helpful in keeping positive vibes, addressing our guests needs/wants, and keeping the day moving smoothly.
  
  I can’t say enough good things about GHI.

  Perfect Day

  If you want a worry free day that is your way, the Golden Horseshoe Inn is the venue for you! While in the early stages of wedding planning, my husband and I were in between going to the courthouse or an intimate ceremony due to what we know weddings can cost. I ended up doing a goggle search for all-inclusive wedding venues and this place popped up. Please know that we both can become overwhelmed with endless options but Heather, Monique, and the whole team made wedding planning a breeze. Along with providing a detailed checklist, they have everything you need and are super flexible in accommodating any special requests. All pricing is straightforward and is right on the website! While most couples have nerves leading up to the big day, my husband and I can both say that our wedding day was perfect. We even received our photos about a week earlier than expected and are eagerly awaiting our video!
  
  Thank you to Heather, Monique, and the rest of the Golden Horseshoe Inn team for making our day special!

  A stress free experience in a very stressful time!

  My wife and I had the misfortune of getting married on the tail end of a hurricane. Fortunately for us, we booked at the Golden Horseshoe Inn! They made what could have been a disaster into a wonderful evening and our wedding went perfectly. The staff was truly invested in making it a seamless experience for us, and the photography and videography is a must have, I did not imagine how well everything would turn out!
  
  If you want an inclusive, stress free experience there is no place I would recommend above The GHI.
  
  I will update my post with some of the pictures once we get our full prints.

  Our Dream Wedding was at Golden Horseshoe Inn!

  The Golden Horseshoe Inn made our wedding absolutely perfect! Our wedding date ended up being during Hurricane Ian, but Heather and the rest of the crew at GHI were able to not let the weather rain on our parade!
  The value of their venue exceeded our expectations. Having a background in coordinating events and activities, I found myself wanting to help out on the day of our wedding, but they had everything under control, leaving not only us, but our families, to do nothing else but enjoy the day!
  Their vendors who did our cake and the bouquet/boutonniere were so awesome. The cake was delicious and the flowers were beautiful! Heather and her husband also did an AMAZING job with our photos and videos. You can tell this is their passion, and we will treasure these mementos of our special day for the rest of our lives.
  I also have to give a huge shoutout to Monique. She was the officiant for our ceremony, but also coordinated the entire day and kept everything running like clockwork. She is a gem! The rest of the staff also did an awesome job!
  You will seriously not be disappointed if you choose Golden Horseshoe Inn for your wedding. The level of care and professionalism they will provide you, you can find nowhere else. We love you!

  No Stress Wedding

  From our first time meeting Monique and Heather, we knew they would cure our wedding-planning-anxiety. They explained the process and timelines, provided documents and helpful hints, but most importantly, they were always available to offer advice. Whenever we had a question, we'd receive a throrough email (usually within the same hour!) going over the pros/cons of why we might want to choose X or Y. Throughout the wedding, Heather guided us around for pictures and various breaks and Monique consistently checked in on us, making sure we had everything we needed or who we needed. It truly felt like a magical day because we were able to enjoy it - there were no surprises, no hiccups - just a wonderfully timed, planned, and beautiful event. On top of that, we received the highlights from our photos the next business day, which just extended the wedding excitement. The photos were thoughtful and exactly as you'd find on the website, in addition to Heather taking various requests throughout the day. I cannot recommend GHI enough for anyone who feels overwhelmed by the wedding planning process.

  Absolutely amazing!

  Heather and her team are AMAZING - they think of everything and make the whole process easy and the event meaningful with tons of little extra touches! From the ease of planning to having everything pretty much included - it is definitely the best way to get the wedding of your dreams on a budget. Heather is an amazing photographer and her husband is a brilliant videographer. They provided exactly the right touches for our photos and video and were mindful of our concerns and shot in a way to minimize those. Don’t walk - run to book your perfect day with at the Golden Horseshoe Inn!
