    Just what I wanted and needed!

    Sarah and Chad were just the people I needed to make my wedding weekend everything I needed and more. They care so much and went above and beyond to handle every little thing. I wanted to walk through a door before I went down the isle and it wasn't standing correctly during the rehearsal, Chad built an entire new door that night so that it was ready for my wedding day.
    the venue is beautiful and made for the perfect fall wedding. All of my guests were raving about how peaceful and gorgeous the land is. The reception tent was perfect and my decorator was able to make it everything I wanted and more. I highly recommend Historic Whitewood.

    Wonderful, considerate and beauty of Powhatan

    We had a great time at the historic whitewood! We booked the location for a farewell party for an office manager who meant a lot to us. The Taylors, the owners, were so gracious. Every detail was carefully thought out. We had some unseasonably cooler temps with some rain but out came the tent and the space heaters and an indoor component. . We barely noticed the weather. The grounds are beautiful and you feel a world away from Richmond. If I wasnt already happily married, I would consider the Historic Whitewood for my wedding venue. The beauty of Powhatan is evident everywhere and despite the historical ambiance of the venue, no modern convenience was spared. Just an epic party and a fantastic place with considerate and thoughtful owners and managers.

    Wonderful!

    My husband and I recently got married at Historic Whitewood and it was nothing short of amazing. As soon as we turned in the driveway we were met with a beautiful entrance full of landscaping and a beautiful “Historic Whitewood” sign allowing us to find the venue with ease. I absolutely love the fine details that this venue had to offer us. It is private yet extremely spacious. The bridal suite (also where my husband and I stayed the night of our wedding) is a 3 bedroom house that is decorated beautifully. It has a complete salon right off of the kitchen which made getting ready a breeze. The natural lighting in the bridal suite is incredible too if I might add. The grooms den is completely separate from the bridal suite which was a must for our party. The Grooms den is masculine, clean, and very elegant. One of my favorite features that was offered to us in the package we chose was the Whitewood INN, it is a 5 bedroom house located at the front of the venue. The INN has a great floor plan and each bedroom had either a Queen or King bed we were able to offer to our guests of choice for the weekend. Lastly, The owners of Historic Whitewood were phenomenal to work with. Sarah was so friendly through the booking process. She never made me feel rushed and was quick to respond when I would reach out with questions. She answered all of my questions with care and honesty. It was evident very early on that she had experience in event planning and customer service. Chad went out of his way more than once to check in with both sides of our wedding party to ensure we had everything we needed and more while we were preparing for the ceremony/reception. Both Chad and Sarah were so accommodating in many ways and I highly recommend this venue to anyone who is considering an elegant wedding at an affordable price point!

    A hidden gem

    Historic Whitewood was simply amazing for our daughter's wedding! Chad and Sarah have covered every detail and the value in what they provide is unparalleled these days. Cool history behind this venue and a perfect place for rehearsal dinner, wedding and reception. I cannot speak highly enough with how wonderful they are to work with. I would give it 6 stars if I could and so worth checking out! Throw in that you can do your own catering and bar and the value gets even better.

    Historic Whitewood's reply:

    Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. It's wonderful to hear you received amazing service and found tremendous value in our offerings. We feel honored to have met your family and loved being a part of their wedding day!

    Very Lucky to have been a guest at Historic Whitewood!

    Whitewood was flawless, and such a beautiful and serene setting for an event! We loved the poolside cocktail hour by the fireplace and the food was delicious. The Taylor’s were so kind and have thought of everything… the Horse trailer bar is super cool!! Can’t wait to visit again!

    Thank you, Ben! We are so glad you enjoyed yourself and look forward to having you back again in the future.
