Talk about luxury

We had our wedding under the Washington package with the dessert display and late night snacks. Talk about luxury. The ballroom, the staircase, the staff, the rooms, everything was exactly how we imagined our wedding. The food was incredible, our only regret was not eating more of it. Planning was very smooth, the staff was helpful, and the event planners at the Virginian were very thorough to ensure the event went off without a hitch. They were very flexible with what we wanted with our wedding, for example: we love tiramisu, so we were able to substitute one of our dessert display desserts with some of the BEST tiramisu cupcakes we have ever had (we really wish we had the recipe because we only ate two over the course of the night and would love to have more!). The planning process was very low stress with them, which was great since we lived 4 hours from the actual venue, and in the end everything went very smoothly on the wedding day. Our guests were very impressed with the food, especially the cocktail hour foods, and the staff all worked to make the event special. The bartenders were great and there was never too long of a wait at the bar during the wedding. Hotel staff throughout the weekend were very accommodating, the valets were lovely to work with, and all our guests that stayed on site loved all of the luxuries of the hotel. Thank you so much for your hard work Shelby and Angelie, we really appreciate your guidance during the wedding planning process.

Best Venue Ever

I went to Liberty, so about everyone I know has gotten married in Lynchburg. By far, I had the best experience planning and preparing for my wedding of anyone I've talked to who was married at another venue. Angelie is a gem and was incredibly responsive and accommodating. My mom and I made several site visits before and after my now-husband and I made the decision to get married here and we were made to feel so special and cared for at each appointment. The venue is beautiful and well-maintained, the food is AMAZING, and they were so flexible letting us set everything up early. The banquet staff and front desk personnel were amazing as well! About 80% of our guests were coming in from out of town and a lot of them stayed at the Virginian. Each of them had nothing but great things to say about how kind everyone was. I stayed in a suite with my bridesmaids the night before, got ready in it that morning, and it was flipped for our wedding night during the reception. Such an amazing experience. I wouldn't have done anything differently!
