Jack and I could not have imagined a better venue for our wedding than The Club at Glenmore in Keswick, Virginia. Growing up in Charlottesville, I knew that I wanted to get married in my hometown. Wineries are a popular choice in Charlottesville, but they are mostly located in the surrounding counties which require a long drive from hotels. Winery weddings can also require coordinating a lot of rentals (decor, tables, chairs, etc.) and finding a caterer. After researching all of the venues around Charlottesville, we chose The Club at Glenmore or many reasons.

One, the beautiful and convenient location. Glenmore was conveniently located only about 10 minutes from our hotel block on Pantops which made it easy for guests and shuttles. Even though the location is close to town, it is situated inside a beautiful gated neighborhood with views of the mountains, rolling horse pastures, and well maintained golf course. So it feels like it's out in the country without actually being that far away from town!

Two, the full service. Glenmore provides so much for its couples! It has an amazing on-site chef so we did not need to find a separate catering company. This was one of our main deciding factors! Couples even do the food & wine tasting at the venue which makes for a fun day trip :) Glenmore provides all of the ceremony chairs, reception chairs, tables, glassware, serving ware, flatware, etc. So we did not need to rent anything except purchase some decorations. Speaking of decorations, Glenmore has many decor pieces that we were able to use! They have arbors, prosecco walls, a boxwood wall for photo opps, votive candle and holders, charger plates, up-lights, bistro lights, etc.

Three, the amenities. Getting ready spaces, ceremony locations, cocktail terrace, reception ballroom - Glenmore has it all! Glenmore has a beautiful bridal suite that the ladies in my bridal party were able to use all morning. The bridal suite has plenty of room to get ready in, hang dresses in, store decor in, and even take pictures in. There is a separate space downstairs where the guys can get ready in too! We all enjoyed spending the morning and early afternoon together in these spaces while eating breakfast and lunch prepared for by Glenmore! The space was also convenient for our vendors too. They could come and check in with me throughout the morning since I was getting ready on-site. There are many ceremony locations to choose from if you want your ceremony at Glenmore. We actually switched our ceremony location within about 2 weeks of the wedding and Glenmore was very accommodating with this switch. Finally, the beautiful ballroom was another major deciding factor for us. We had our wedding in the summer, so we knew we wanted to have the reception indoors in an air conditioned room.

Four, the staff. Glenmore takes pride in providing top notch service to its clients. Kim, the event coordinator at Glenmore, helped us so much from start to finish. She walked us through the wedding process, answered the many questions we had, worked with all of our vendors, met with us for our tasting and walkthroughs, made sure that all of our requests were met, and coordinated the entire Glenmore team on our wedding day.

If you are looking for a beautiful full-service wedding venue with everything including an amazing on-site caterer, top notch staff, convenient location, and gorgeous views, Glenmore is the place for you!!

10/10 recommend The Club at Glenmore for weddings!

We couldn't have imagined a more perfect location to host our wedding cocktail hour and reception. Not only was the Glenmore staff accommodating, attentive, professional, and kind, but I sincerely feel like they went above and beyond (both before and during my wedding) to make our day special. From the beautiful bridal suite to the delicious food (really... their chef is fantastic!), Glenmore provided the perfect setting for a Charlottesville-area wedding. We would use them again in a heartbeat!

I don't give 5 stars often (always room for improvement, you know?), but I do for The Club at Glenmore! We had our wedding here and our day couldn't have been better imagined.
Kim is the most thoughtful, professional, and helpful woman. She makes it all seem so effortless, and even with the "what if" scenarios we came up with she always had a plan! She worked SO well with our vendors and if anything went wrong I had no clue about it!
The chef and kitchen staff really outdid themselves too! The food was perfection, no one had anything negative to say about it, and so many went for seconds and thirds there was nothing left. You can tell they put their hearts and souls into their jobs and that's hard to find customer service like that now a days.
The flow of the day was so smooth and I'm sure there were countless others behind the scenes assisting and each one helped us stay stress free and present during our big day!
The pavilion and ballroom are spacious and beautiful we hardly felt the need to decorate.
Highly recommend this venue!
