Wedding Venues in Hampton Roads

We could not have chosen a more perfect venue to have our wedding! From the time we scheduled a tour, to the wedding day, the staff was amazing. Eric, Cat and Jeremy went above and beyond to ensure our special day was smooth sailing and the venue looked perfect. The venue itself is beautiful, elegant and classy. Vaux Hall was welcoming with enough space to hold all of guests to make them feel comfortable. The farm was very well maintained, with beautiful homes and cottages to host all of our bridal parties and guests. This made for stunning and breathtaking photos to last forever. Not only did the venue itself make a selling point for us to have our wedding, the service was excellent. They worked with us through every detail, being accommodating with us, kind, and professional. Our guests fell in love with the venue just as much as we did. We, to this day, have people raving about how beautiful our wedding and venue were. If you are looking for the perfect venue that is not only beautiful, but organized and dedicated, Vaux Hall Farm is the place to book! It was everything we dreamed it would be!

Our daughter's dream wedding was held at the Williamsburg Inn. From the moment she stepped onto the grounds she knew it was the perfect setting for her wedding. The venue is stunning, timeless historic and beautifully maintained, offering countless stunning photo opportunities. We cannot recommend, Yuani Valentine, Weddings and Special Events Coordinator, highly enough! Yuani's knowledge of the venue, attention to detail, and prompt responses made everything seamless. Lindsay Codekas, Manager of the Floral Studio at the Williamsburg Inn, created stunning bouquets and centerpieces. From start to finish, the food exceeded all expectations--beautifully presented, flavorful, and perfectly timed. The wedding cake was a showstopper. The pastry chef worked with us to customized flavors and fillings. It looked stunning and tasted even better. The combination of the Williamsburg Inn's breathtaking ambiance and Yuani's exceptional expertise created a celebration that was both sophisticated and deeply personal. We cannot recommend this venue highly enough for couples seeking a wedding experience defined by elegance, impeccable service and unforgettable memories.

They’d soooo much I can say about James River Country Club 10 out of 10 definitely recommend we pick the spot because of the breathtaking view of a private beach that they have and then the inside is just a incredible as the outside it gives very elegant vibes and then the food TOP Notch I’m not a mushroom person but that mushroom ravioli, oh my God, best freaking thing I’ve had on top of all their other great choices of food that we picked for our dinner we had some of the best staff from Jo,Kristen,Rick and Conrad thanks for making my vision come to life

To preface this, I want to mention that I worked in the events industry for 9 years at a very busy venue, on top of having spent over a decade in the theatre. So when I went into the wedding planning process 18 months before my wedding I had VERY specific ideas of what I was looking for and for the people I wanted involved. Ford's Colony met and exceeded those expectations by a mile. Kristen was warm and very detail oriented, and we clicked right away as I began the planning process with them. Then I met Natalie and WOW! She takes what she does seriously, pays SO much attention to every detail and genuinely cares about her clients. She also knows all the best spots to take the photographers too! The food was delicious, the bartenders friendly and poured a good drink, and all of the staff were inviting, kind, professional and helpful beyond measure. Given that this was a same-sex wedding, it was also very important to me to find a venue that was open minded and drama-free. Not once did I ever feel I got a sideways glance or odd look from anyone at Ford's Colony. The entire staff of the venue couldn't have been kinder, even when we over-ran their bar for pictures before they opened! No wedding is complete without its share of minor heart stopping moments, and ours was no different. But Natalie and Ford's Colony were professionalism itself from start to finish and never said "Oh no!" The only response to ANYTHING from them was "Ok, and this is what we are going to do." When I saw Natalie PERSONALLY trying to resew and fix the zipper on the DJ's dress after it broke before the ceremony I was floored, and KNEW I had chosen the right place. Many venues are beautiful, have amazing food, quality staff and a great feel. ONLY Ford's Colony and Natalie can and will deliver that, but SO much more. They have heart and passion for both what they do and the people they work with as well as their clients.

I had been in contact with Victoria and from the start the communication was on point. The professionalism and integrity of the establishment was amazing. They truly are the great people who have the best intentions.

It’s 52 days later and we (and our guests) are still absolutely gushing over our outdoor, tented reception in the Renaissance Rose Court location at the Norfolk Botanical Gardens; it was the perfect venue for our wedding! Between their phenomenal staff and stunning views, they had it all! We could not have asked for better! They truly make you feel like VIPs throughout the entire process, from beginning to end. During our initial tour of the venue, the NBG team emphasized that they were always happy to answer any email or call that we sent their way (and boy did they mean it), so we knew we were in good hands the day of the wedding! Their level of communication is impeccable and I promise you will be left feeling like they will do anything to help you achieve your perfect wedding day! The NBG team are not only masters in problem solving, but they are also true professionals. They maintained a friendly and approachable demeanor, and helped all our vendors work together to make every small detail look perfect. The NBG team provided many different ideas and suggestions to make sure we could bring our vision to life in the best and most efficient way possible. They asked an abundance of great questions throughout the process to get a feel for what were our absolute “must haves” and even suggested some things we hadn’t thought of. We hosted our ceremony on the brick in front of the fountain at the Renaissance Rose Court location, cocktail hour at the Statuary Vista location, and then the reception was under a dreamy twinkle light tent on the first grassy tier at the Renaissance Rose Court location. Guests were in awe of the view (and we also lucked out with absolutely perfect, albeit slightly hot, weather)! They were also true champions (and professionals) to help our other vendors set up and break down through our outdoor wedding, on July 12th, in Virginia! Working with the staff at the Norfolk Botanical Garden has been an absolute pleasure from first contact until the end of the wedding day (and the next day when we stopped by to pick up a few forgotten items). Their exceptional talent, professionalism, and dedication to their craft makes them a stand out choice in the world of wedding venues! We could not recommend the Norfolk Botanical Gardens enough, and can’t wait to return to celebrate future life moments! It’s definitely well-worth the investment for a beautiful, love-filled weekend! - The Canavoses

Sara was my wedding coordinator for my wedding and she was AMAZING!! She made my wedding day perfect and was always thinking ahead and great at coming up with solutions/ideas for wedding day when I needed help. So many of our guests were raving about how amazing the wedding day was! It was truly the best day ever and couldn’t have done it without Sara and the rest of the Lesner Inn staff. Highly recommend having your wedding here and having Sara as your wedding coordinator! The views, food, and staff is 10/10!!

If you are looking for the best venue to host your Suffolk wedding, you found it! I am a professional DJ and I work a few wedding events here every year and already have some lined up for next year. Before this year is over, I wanted to take the time and share with all review readers how grateful I am for the opportunity to be able to collaborate with such a great venue and the talented team that makes magic happen every time I am there. They communicate well with vendors, everything is always clean and looks amazing, and the layout options are awesome. The riverfront is the icing on top of the cake, I love when we get to do ceremonies out there. They surely go above and beyond for their clients to have the best time ever. Go see for yourself, book your event here! Chris “DJ Karizma” August | DJ Karizma Entertainment LLC | www.karizma.bz

From start to finish nothing but professionalism, open communication and flexibility. Danielle started us off and then Nikki took over they both are beautiful women with beautiful souls. We were supposed to have an outside wedding, the rain said no. They worked with us through the financial and emotional hurdles. We appreciate them and the serving staff for the reception. Also the restaurant did a great job for the rehearsal dinner.
