We stayed with this vendor when we got engaged, and fell in love with the historic hotel and the beautiful vistas surrounding it. When planning for our wedding, we wanted a historic venue that didn't have ties to slavery, which is difficult in Virginia, as many of the most beautiful venues are or once were plantation houses. We kept coming back to the Mimslyn, and eventually decided they'd be perfect for us. Our main contact was Ryann, who above all else was professional, kind, courteous, and resolved every single issue we ever brought to her without complaint. During our engagement, the hotel changed ownership, which we believe was the main source of any issues we encountered. These might not affect future events at this hotel, but we experienced growing pains with their website and booking, resulting in many guests having issues accessing the Room Block that we had set up for them. Ryann was great and fixed these problems so that they created no issues for our guests. The hotel staff was also incredibly warm and kind to us, and seemed thrilled whenever we spoke with them. The chef met with us personally and helped us coordinate the dinner, which was delicious and was exactly on time. It was the best wedding food we've ever had by far. There was an unfortunate heat wave that affected our very outdoor wedding. With less than a week to go, the hotel and our coordinators came up with a plan and restructured the ceremony to be indoors. This could not have been an easy task, and likely required a lot more work and stress for all involved, but you wouldn't know it by the way they professionally handled everything the day of. Despite our issues with the hotel side of things (which were again resolved thanks to Ryann being the best), everything was beautiful and perfect the day of our wedding. We are happy with the choice we made, and are grateful for everything they did for us.
