Nestled in Fredericksburg, Virginia, Belle’s Pleasure is a wedding venue with a country and vintage feel. The property is dotted with historic buildings from multiple centuries as well as forests and meadows. An enchanting ambiance treads throughout the farm, which is located near both the District of Columbia and Richmond. Family-owned, it offers an idyllic backdrop for whimsical weddings.

Facilities and Capacity

The venue features a luxurious dressing room for you and your wedding party to get ready in. Originally the carriage house, it boasts two floors and numerous amenities to make preparing for your wedding day both comfortable and convenient. Dark wood flooring and white walls with ornate furnishings offer an additional touch of sophistication to the space. For your ceremony, you can move out to the lawn framed by trees. After, while your guests enjoy cocktail hour, take your wedding photos by the water or row a canoe out on the pond for magical photographs. Come time for the reception, dine and dance in the classic barn. The tall ceilings bring a sense of wonder and the natural grain of the wood in this building makes the space inviting.

Services Offered

Infuse the wedding decor with antique charm. The owner of Belle’s Pleasure has a passion for historical objects, from plates and glassware to furniture and decorative items. You may request to use any of these items for your wedding. For example, chalkboard signs can greet your guests as they enter the venue while flowers elegantly drape rustic whiskey barrels. Set the space with the help of their staff and use the location's tables and chairs as well as lighting and sound equipment to get the venue wedding-ready.

History

Belle’s Pleasure has a long and rich history with stories echoing throughout the property. The farmhouse that stands proudly on the 15-acre plot was originally constructed in 1769. As for the barn, it was built in the 1920s. For over two centuries families have lived, worked, and loved here, imbuing the venue with a sense of romance.

Beautiful Venue

Emily was great! There were a few things that started to feel out of control leading up to our wedding and Emily was very reassuring and made sure that everything went smoothly and that we had everything we needed for our big day! She made the planning process so easy, we were able to rent a bunch of cool couches and chairs right from the venue that gave the wedding the vibe we were looking for. Emily is also very knowledgeable about the set up of the venue depending on the weather so rain or shine we were not worried that the day wouldn't be a success! She also has a ton of things you can use so there are less things to pack with you! The bridal suite is adorable and has quite a lot of space to make getting ready easy plus you are already there so less travel! I can't say enough good things and would definitely recommend Belle's Pleasure to future brides! Oh and of course I can't forget about the horses! They were magnificent!

Best Venue Ever!

Picking this venue was the best and easiest decision when planning our wedding. Everything fell into place so easily because of the owner, Emily, who is a godsend! Her and her husband-Adam, have worked so hard to make this place a dream!

This venue is absolutely stunning! It literally has everything you could need- the gorgeous barn, the pond, the AMAZING bridal suite, silo bar, etc! There are so many options when determining the layout of your wedding here. Our wedding was October 10, 2020. We chose to have our ceremony outdoors by the pond, cocktail hour by the silo bar/barn which included photo booth, gift table, high tables, with additional seating, and reception in a tent. It was perfect! I loved literally everything about this venue and cannot begin to express how thankful I am to Emily and Adam for allowing us to have our wedding at Belle's Pleasure.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts,
Savannah & Brian!

Our experience with Belle's Pleasure Venue was AMAZING and everything that we hoped for!

Belle’s Pleasure Venue is nestled in a quiet countryside setting in Fredericksburg, VA. Our daughter was to be married in April 2020 at another venue however do to COVID her wedding had to be cancelled and we were in need of finding a new venue for their new wedding date which was October 3, 2020…….which brought us to Belle’s Pleasure and WHAT A FIND!!!!! It was perfect in every way! The day we went to tour the venue, we were greeted by the owners Emily and Adam who are genuine and lovely people. They helped us in every way they could with all our thousand questions and talked through our decisions on how their special day would be. They made it easy and smooth throughout the whole process and made themselves available the day of our daughter’s wedding to make sure that everything went off as we planned. The barn is magnificent and charming, and the whole historical factor made it all that more special. There are so many possibilities to fit what your vision is for your special day there. We choose to have the ceremony outdoors by the pond, the cocktail hour on the grass by the Silo Bar and the reception in the barn. Their new Silo Bar looks amazing as we had the opportunity to see it as they were first renovating it. Emily and Adam even joined us late at night after all the guests had left to sit in the barn and talk to us about the day. Samantha and Nate stayed in Belle’s Bridal Suite which is so adorable. Samantha and her Bridal party got ready there for the wedding which makes it so convenient. Go see them before you look at any other venue…..You won’t be disappointed!!!!! Emily and Adam……Thank you from the bottom of our hearts……You are amazing!!!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
