Everything was AMAZING…Book it!!!

I had an absolutely amazing experience at the White House Weddings venue! Leela was super fun and great to work with. She answered all of my questions in a very timely manner, and was always quick to accommodate my needs! She was super sweet😊 The venue is also gorgeous! You can tell a lot of work is put into it. Leela has it already decorated quite nicely, you just have to add your finishing touches! The check in time is also quite early in the morning, so you have all day on Friday to decorate the venue how you like it, and check out is very generous, so there’s plenty of time to clean up on Sunday (if you’re having a Saturday wedding that is)! Booking an Airbnb for your wedding is a great choice in my opinion! The house itself is huge and has so many amenities, like a sauna, and it’s GORGEOUS! This venue is a hidden treasure, please check it out❤️

Top Quality-Lowest Venue Price!

This estate has it all! A mansion, where my family stayed, a glam barn where we had our weddings and reception. A pond, a Victorian Gazebo, and a flower garden, a bridal boudoir, a gentlemen's room, a baby grand piano and a chapel room! The cheapest rates you will ever find. All in the beautiful state of Virginia. I found this place at www.thewhitehouseweddings.com

Incredible!

This property is extremely beautiful and well maintained. There are no other venues like it in the area and maybe the state. The property has everything you could ever ask for to make your big day a success. On top of the property being breath taking Ms. Leela who manages the property was the sweetest most nicest person I’ve met. She made the experience even more memorable. The White House weddings has my highest recommendation!
