Rustic and Charming!

We got married at Buchanan Hall with our ceremony and reception onsite. From the beginning, we loved this venue - our vision was to have a memorable and meaningful wedding, surrounded by family and friends, at an affordable price. Buchanan Hall is where that vision was solidified and ultimately, carried out. The price for renting the hall cannot be beat and they allow so much flexibility with vendors, which was helpful.

Montana, the point of contact we worked with, is an absolute gem. She gave us plenty of advice and support along the way, along with knowledge of the venue itself. I loved that this venue is a local non-profit and supports a farmers market and other local community events, including a pride celebration.

If you are interested in getting married here - GO VISIT. That will help make the choice for you since you will be able to see all the included amenities, such as getting ready suites. The beautiful mountain view is an added bonus. Thanks again for making our wedding amazing!

Perfect Wedding Day

Wedding venues in NOVA are insanely high priced, and finding something within our budget was turning into a nightmare for us. Buchanan hall was one of the nicer venues we looked at and Montana was fantastic in helping arrange and coordinate our big day. We also loved that the hall is a non-profit community space.

October wedding

Words really don’t express how amazing our wedding day was and how beautiful everything was. Buchanan hall made all our wedding day visions come true! The history, outdoor space, get ready rooms, hall, and everything in between was simple perfection. Montana has been amazing this whole process and is more than helpful. We couldn’t think of a better space to hold our big day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
