Commitment Ceremony

We recently hosted our commitment ceremony at The Osprey with just six weeks to plan, due to unexpected health issues in our extended family. From the very beginning, Manager Vanessa Escobar and Johana Amezquita were outstanding. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and calm demeanor made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable.
Johana worked closely with several local caterers and helped us select Taste of Elegance, a woman-owned business from Fredericksburg. The coordination between Johana, Tracy Augstell, and Carey Barber of Taste of Elegance was excellent. They expertly managed the day’s timeline, handled several last-minute changes with grace and efficiency, and ensured everything ran seamlessly.
The venue itself was ideal for our event, offering a beautiful setting with a private dressing room, cocktail bar, dining area and a lovely two-level outdoor patio. The food from Taste of Elegance was delicious, and the overall customer service from both The Osprey team and Taste of Elegance far exceeded our expectations.
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend The Osprey for anyone planning a special event.

We loved The Osprey’s!

Booking The Osprey’s for our wedding was the best decision we made. Once we booked it, everything else fell into place. Vanessa was wonderful to work with, as well as all our vendors that we hired through their list of vendors. My husband and I highly recommend The Osprey’s!

Our perfect fall wedding

We had been dreaming of a waterfront venue for our fall 2025 wedding and the Osprey's more than delivered! Unlike other waterfront venues, because there's also a skyline of the trees across the river it gave the most BEAUTIFUL fall foliage!! It was stunning and we still get compliments and questions on how we found this venue! Also, Tori was the BEST at being so responsive and flexible. She was very knowledgeable and helpful in planning our big. I had no "post wedding blues" because everything about our day was absolutely perfect and it wouldn't have been the same without the Osprey's at Belmont Bay!

Beautiful Venue

I went to see the Osprey's back in January 2025 and fell in love with it right away. We met with Vanessa, who showed us the venue and went over reception options for our wedding. One thing we quickly realized was that the Osprey's had excellent customer service. Every question we had was answered quickly. Vanessa was very friendly, professional, and easy to work with. Even with the follow up questions we had after our tour, Vanessa responded to our emails quickly. Once we were about 45 days away from the wedding, we were paired with Tori, who was our Event Director. When we met with Tori, she was very friendly and helpful. One thing that we found helpful was the timeline template they provided us with. It helped us plan out our reception details with ease. One thing to note was that the Osprey's provides a list of preferred vendors to work with, such as DJ's, caterers etc. Their preferred list was a God send! We ended up hiring 3 of their preferred vendors and so happy we did! The our wedding day was PERFECT. Everything we planned and wanted actually happened. I received so many compliments about the venue and the wedding and I was so happy our guests truly enjoyed it. Tori did a fantastic job as our event director and made sure we followed the timeline and kept things moving with ease. While the day flew by, we simply had an amazing wedding. I wanted to send a huge thank you to the Osprey's and especially Vanessa and Tori for making our special day go so well. :)

Destination Wedding in the DMV

Thank you Ospreys at Belmont Bay for executing my beautiful wedding. The venue provided me and my husband with a destination like wedding right here in the DMV. My ceremony was outside overseeing the water on a beautiful pergola. A special shout out to my Event Director Tori she was truly amazing to work with from start to finish.

Hidden Gem

The coordinators are so helpful. The list of recommended vendors really helps because they are vendors that they have worked with many times. The bridal suite is so big and spacious and I love that the groom had somewhere to be as well. I loved the “borrowed” closet, that really helped with purchasing decor and not having to spend the money on certain pieces. The venue is so spacious that you won’t feel overcrowded. I definitely recommend this venue because of the coordinators, the location and views and over all experience.

Beautiful location, beautifully organized ✨

I was determined to get married on the water which can typically be very expensive however, the Osprey’s location was amazingly priced especially given the amount of guests we had. They had a huge and beautiful bridal room and even a grooms quarters that made the getting ready aspect even easier. They also provide a “something borrowed” closet that had a ton of different decor pieces that really helped pull everything together and also saved cost of little decor pieces I would have had to purchase myself!

Lastly, they provide you with a day-of coordinator who works with you so closely to ensure that every moment of your days flows smoothly and perfectly. I have to give Vanessa a huge shoutout, she really made the day that much better! Our family’s cannot stop talking about how perfect it was and we are just so happy! Highly, highly recommend!

I love working with Brooke's team at Osprey. They are professional, detailed, and make sure their couples have the perfect wedding day. As an officiant, I know that I can focus solely on my job because the Osprey staff will be on top of all the other details. You are in excellent hands at Osprey.

It is very hard to find a waterfront location for a wedding, and it is even more difficult to find a nearly-perfect one. Until you come to The Osprey's at Belmont Bay. Located just outside of Fairfax County, near Occoquan, and on the wide and spectacular Belmont Bay (the confluence of the Occoquan and Potomac Rivers), it is a magnificent vista spread out before you. This site is done right, with a beautiful gazebo and paved area. Then the club house is just for your reception ... no other guests. It is a wonderful place to have a wedding, and I always love knowing I am going to the Osprey's to officiate a wedding. Makes my day, and it will make yours too!

Brooke and the staff at the Osprey are absolutely amazing! I watched as she transformed the Osprey's venue into a beautiful space. Osprey is one of the most beautiful waterfront venues I have ever seen. Brooke and I have been working together for the last four years and all I can say is WOW. She is not only an amazing director of events but she cares deeply about the success of every single event. Brooke will make sure that your event is nothing short of spectacular. I get excited every time I work at the Osprey because I know their team will do an amazing job to ensure a successful event!!
