Carol Anne Abbott and the UVA Alumni Hall Reservations team are delightful! We recently held our wedding at the UVA Chapel with the reception after at Alumni Hall. Alumni Hall is a pretty space in itself, with the Jefferson Ballroom serving as the main entertaining space. The Annex room attached to the Ballroom worked perfectly for our cocktail hour. Carol Anne is amazing - literally the best to work with. She answered our initial questions and helped us navigate the path to securing Alumni Hall and signing a contract. She was available for our walk throughs, and a wealth of knowledge in terms of recommending various vendors within the Charlottesville area. My husband and I both graduated from UVA, but as we no longer live in the area, we relied heavily on Carol Anne to help find our other amazing vendors. We loved working with Carol Anne so much we convinced her to serve as our day of coordinator in addition - one of our best decisions of wedding planning! Our wedding was true to UVA down to the cheesy color coordination of navy and orange. My husband and I met at UVA and wanted to reflect our love for Mr. Jefferson's University. We were very pleased with the reception venue of Alumni Hall and recommend it for others - they also offer a discount for the reservation fee to Alumni Life Members.

Alumni Hall is a great venue - classically "Charlottesville" and central to the University. The event planner is very easy to work with and responsive. The price simply cannot be beat (discount available for Alumni Association members)! We added uplighting from MS events and all of our guests raved about the venue and atmosphere.

Alumni Hall is gorgeous. Best space in the area. The staff was amazing - everything ran perfectly (or if it didn't, I didn't know). Could not have been happier with choice to use them. The staff went out of the way to make sure I was happy, even though they didn't have to. I was already so excited about how the hall looked. They made great recommendations about where to put things that I wouldn't have thought about.

Loved the outside cocktail space and the kitchen/bar area are the best for your caterers.

The price is unbeatable for the space. I did have to rent chairs to match my color, but that was no biggie.
