We are located minutes from I-95, Routes 1 & 17 and walking distance to historic Downtown Fredericksburg.

The event space holds up to 300 guests. Your ceremony can take place in a variety of locations including our adjoining chapel, courtyard, or inside the mill. This Silk Mill is known for its flexibility of set up & layout designs and is the perfect backdrop for any decor taste.
Our new sister venue, The Woolen Mill, is located just next door. The Woolen Mill dates back to 1864. Since then, it has served as a factory for various industries including a shoe & pant factory, and most recently before it's current use, a commercial signage company. Along with the Silk Mill, Woolen Mill was also a major employer of women in the area, and there are countless stories & family history that are rich to Fredericksburg's history. Now restored, Woolen Mill offers a gorgeous industrial modern feel with beautiful craftsman accents, most of which are original to the building. One of it's most unique features is a spacious rooftop overlooking the scenic Rappahannock river where you are sure to see a variety of wildlife including bald eagles that nest along the riverbank. This loaction also boasts an orignal elevator, however a modern elevator has been added to offer access for your guests who may not be able to walk up stairs as well as for safety purposes. Woolen Mill accomodates up to 220 guests.
Our venues include tables, chairs, & linens as well as set up a break down of those items. We also are proud to offer in-hours catering and bar options for a streamlined & stree-free process for our couples.
