About

On WeddingWire since 2008

From an intimate proposal to a gorgeous garden ceremony and every special moment in between, Maymont is a perfect backdrop for memories that will last a lifetime. Choose from the flower-filled Italian Garden or serene Blue Atlas Cedar tree for your ceremony, and celebrate your reception in The Robins Nature Center. Or, enjoy your ceremony and reception at our newly-renovated Westover location. Rehearsal dinner locations and engagement packages are also available.

At Maymont, a 100-acre estate given to the community by James and Sallie Dooley, guests can tour a historic mansion, see native wildlife and farm animals, or just relax amidst its beauty.

Beautiful Venue

We had the most beautiful wedding that required minimal decorations due to the venue being so amazing itself! All of the staff were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable when it came to answering questions! They were even really amazing about helping us navigate having a wedding during a pandemic.

Maymont was the perfect venue for our ceremony and reception! Catherine, Tawheed, and the Maymont staff were easy to work with throughout the process and very helpful/flexible with our ideas. They worked with our other vendors to make sure the wedding day went off without a hitch. We picked a number of other vendors who had previously worked at Maymont, which made the process a little easier because they all knew what they were doing and where they were going. Everyone loved the ceremony site outside the Nature Center - the weather was beautiful and the setup was perfect. The cocktail hour in the Nature Center exhibit area was a big hit with our guests, and the reception on the Nature Center back patio was a perfect-sized space for our 100-ish guests. The venue had a personal connection for us, which made the wedding extra special. Thank you, Maymont!

I shot a very private wedding at Maymont and absolutely loved it. They are a wonderful group of people to work with and the grounds are nothing less than extraordinary. It's a beautiful venue for a wedding, and has a wonderful indoor/outdoor reception location. My entire experience was wonderful and I would highly recommend the location to anyone.

Maymont has several options for ceremonies and receptions! It's such a lovely park to go to on any day, but on your wedding day - it's nature at it's best! We love working with their team there!

Oh my stars! I can't say enough amazing things about Maymont! I have photographed several engagement sessions here and I used to take my photography and art history students here on field trips. It is a gorgeous outdoor venue, steeped in rich history, agriculture and architecture. This is THE venue for the intelligent, classic, romantic and joyful bride!
