Angela Sent on 12/10/2024The Perfect Wedding Venue
We had the most incredible experience having our wedding at Keswick Vineyards, and we cannot recommend this venue enough! From the very first moment we reached out, the staff were beyond amazing, consistently going above and beyond to make our day as perfect as possible. Throughout the entire planning process, they were incredibly responsive, always available to help with anything we needed, big or small. On the day of the wedding, the team kept everything organized, ensuring that the day flowed smoothly without a hitch. Any minor issues that came up were swiftly resolved, allowing us to enjoy every moment without any stress.
The venue itself is absolutely stunning. The grounds are impeccably maintained, and there is truly a beautiful view around every corner—each location offering its own picturesque backdrop for photos and moments of serenity. Whether you’re looking for lush vineyards, breathtaking mountain views, or charming garden areas, Keswick has it all.
The combination of outstanding service, a picture-perfect setting, and a seamless experience made our wedding day unforgettable. If we had to do it all over again, there’s no question—we would still choose Keswick Vineyards. Thank you to the entire team for making our dream wedding come true!Keswick Vineyards's reply:
Angela & Jarrod, Thank you so much for the kind words. Your wedding was so much fun and I just love how important your dog Tucker is to you both and what a fantastic job he did for your ceremony. Everything about your wedding was just perfect and I'm so happy you wouldn't change a thing if you had to do it again. Be on the lookout for your blog to be posted in the near future. Hope you like it! Look forward to you visiting whenever you are in the area. Until then, take care! -

Keswick was a wonderful venue to have our wedding at! Grace was very kind and responsive and it was a pleasure getting to work with her. While the venue is truly beautiful, there were some downsides. A week before our second and final payment was due, the venue disclosed a new credit card fee. While I understand that some businesses require a fee, I would have appreciated some type of notice or for them to honor our original contract which didn’t have a credit card fee for our first payment. Additionally, something else to look out for is the venue allows 12 hours of time on-site. While this seems like a good amount of time, this is not enough time for the bridal party to get ready on-site. One additional hour is $500 which is tough when trying to work within a budget. Overall the venue itself is great but be prepared to spend a lot and maybe get hit with “hidden” fees.Keswick Vineyards's reply:
Maddy,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and congratulations once again on your wedding! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the beauty of Keswick Vineyards and had a positive experience working with Grace. She truly strives to ensure each couple feels supported and cared for throughout their wedding planning journey.
We wanted to take a moment to address your concerns to provide some clarity:
Credit Card Fees: We understand your frustration regarding the credit card fee, and we sincerely apologize if it felt unexpected. Like many businesses, we introduced this fee due to increased processing costs, but we chose not to raise our overall pricing to accommodate this. Instead, we provide alternatives, such as paying by check, which avoids the fee entirely. Our goal is to offer flexibility and keep costs as low as possible for our couples.
Rental Time: Our 12-hour rental period is designed to provide ample time for most wedding-day schedules, and it is longer than what many other venues typically offer. However, we understand that every couple’s needs are different. Some of our brides prefer to get ready off-site to maximize their time at the venue, while others adjust their ceremony start time to better suit their timeline. We’re happy to work with couples during the planning process to help create a schedule that works for their day.
We truly appreciate your kind words about the venue and Grace’s support, and we’re sorry if any part of your experience felt less than ideal. Your feedback is invaluable as it helps us continuously improve the experience we provide to our couples.
Wishing you and your partner all the best in this next chapter of your lives together! -

Keswick is a no brainer for hosting your wedding. Their onsite staff helps the day to go off without a hitch (even when we had a spontaneous thunderstorm, they were ready to go with umbrellas for our guests to get to the bathroom). Our guests made several comments about how kind and attentive the staff was. Also.. just look at it! It's stunning and doesn't need excess decoration. Thank you Keswick! -

Billy Sent on 03/11/2024Dream Wedding, Dream Venue !!
As many have noted previously, my wife and I knew Keswick Vineyards was the venue for our wedding the moment we step foot onto the property. The elegant ambiance and breathtaking scenery of the property is second to none. To start, we were given a recommended vendor list, along with some key documents to review. Grace, the coordinator at Keswick was truly amazing, she answered all of our burning questions and made sure that we were taken care of each time we visited Keswick (wine tasting, walkthrough, etc.) Grace was definitely an asset that was instrumental throughout our wedding planning, she was very helpful and often offered guidance and suggestions for everything from hotel to transportation service.
On the day of the wedding, Cindy and the Keswick team were a huge help in making the day an unforgettable experience. Every detail was flawlessly executed and the day went on seamlessly. We couldn’t have chosen a more magical place to celebrate our special day. To this day, we still have family and guests rave about how beautiful the day was.
Joanna and I are truly grateful for their hard work, dedication and commitment throughout this journey and we can’t wait to come back and visit. We highly recommend Keswick Vineyards for anyone seeking a dreamy and memorable wedding venue!!

Victoria Sent on 01/06/2024The perfect venue
We knew Keswick was the venue for our wedding the moment we drove onto the property. The drive through the vineyard is breathtaking no matter the season. We were initially torn between a date in August or late October. Cindy, the wonderful owner of Keswick, spent over an hour with us on the phone (before we had even signed a contract) talking through each date’s pros/cons, showing us pictures of the vineyard at the respective times, and helping us coming to our ultimate decision of October. She was so kind and patient with us as we went back and forth with our decision. Working with the Keswick team was a dream – we are not from the area, but they were able to accommodate a visit each time we were in town for us to check out the property again. We were given complimentary wine tastings when selecting the wines we’d be using for the wedding. They have a dedicated area on the property for you to bury the bourbon if it's a tradition you choose to take part in.
Grace, the event coordinator, was amazing. She was quick to answer any questions we had via email or over the phone. Cindy, the owner mentioned above, goes above and beyond to be sure your day is everything and more you would want it to be. She is subtly present the day of your wedding to make sure everything is running smoothly. She drove us and our photographer around in a golf cart during cocktail hour to make sure we found the perfect spot in the vines for golden hour. She genuinely wants your wedding to be the most special day.
The beauty of the property really speaks for itself. We were so lucky with the gorgeous weather coupled by the stunning fall scenery of the foliage and vines. We continue to have our family and friends rave about how beautiful the day was. We would choose Keswick over and over again!

Victoria, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for your incredibly kind review! Your words truly brightened our day. It was an absolute delight collaborating with you in the days leading up to your wedding.

You cannot beat this venue
The venue was absolutely stunning and the on-site team was 10/10!! This is an outdoor venue (though they have a beautiful backup tent), but you truly cannot beat this venue on a nice day. It was showstopping! And there are a lot of different ways you can orient your ceremony to fit your taste, which is a great feature! Cindy was incredibly helpful as well!Keswick Vineyards's reply:
Thank you Taylor! It was an absolute pleasure to host your wedding! We hope to see you back here soon :) - Grace -

Derek Sent on 09/26/2023Amazing Venue
The venue is absolutely beautiful and we received many compliments during and after our big day. Unlike a typical vineyard venue, the ceremony/reception area is completely separate from the tasting room, making it a very private evening, which was important to us. This also allowed us to easily book the venue for the whole day without interfering with the tasting room, which doesn't happen at other vineyards (we could also start our ceremony before 6 pm due to this setup, unlike every other vineyard we toured). Staff were easy to work with and flexible to help us with what we wanted to do. Everything was clean and the grounds look great, couldn't have asked for better scenery for us and our guests. We are so glad that we chose Keswick!Keswick Vineyards's reply:
Derek, thank you so much for your kind words! You and Emily, along with your guests, brought so much joy to our establishment. Hosting your special day was an absolute pleasure for us, and we are overjoyed to hear that you all had such a wonderful time. Thank you once again for choosing us to be a part of your day! -

Hope Sent on 09/11/2023Better Than They Write About In Fairytales
Choosing the right venue for our wedding was one of the most important decisions we made, and we are overjoyed to share our exceptional experience at Keswick Vineyards. From the moment we laid eyes on this enchanting location, we knew it was the perfect place to begin our journey as a married couple.
First and foremost, the natural beauty and charm of Keswick Vineyards took our breath away. Nestled amidst lush vineyards, picturesque grounds, and scenic mountains the venue provided a captivating backdrop that made our wedding day feel like a fairytale. Our guests were equally spellbound by the stunning setting, and many commented on its unparalleled beauty.
The team at Keswick Vineyards was nothing short of remarkable. The event coordinator, Grace and the owner Cindy, were not just experts in their field but also genuine, caring individuals who went to great lengths to ensure our day was perfect. From the initial planning stages to the execution of every detail on the big day, their professionalism and dedication was evident. They listened attentively to our vision and offered invaluable guidance throughout the process. The result was a seamless and stress-free wedding day that exceeded our wildest dreams.
One of the standout features of Keswick Vineyards was its versatility and effortless beauty. Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, this venue has the flexibility to accommodate your needs. Our ceremony was held outdoors with the lush vineyards and rolling mountains as our backdrop, while the reception took place in the elegant tent framed by the beauty of nature, which was transformed into a magical setting that left our guests in awe.
Keswick Vineyards provided us with a dreamlike setting for our wedding, and the entire team exceeded our expectations. We are immensely grateful for their hard work, dedication, and commitment to making our day truly special. If you're in search of a wedding venue that offers natural beauty, flexibility, and a team that treats your wedding as if it were their own, look no further. Our wedding day was a masterpiece thanks to this remarkable venue, and we will cherish the memories made here for a lifetime.Keswick Vineyards's reply:
Hope,
We are absolutely thrilled that you chose Keswick Vineyards as the venue for your wedding. It was an absolute delight to host you, and we couldn't be happier to hear about your fantastic experience.

Thank you for entrusting us with your special day. We genuinely appreciate your choice, and we're looking forward to welcoming you back to Keswick Vineyards for many years to come!

We loved hosting our wedding at Keswick! From the moment we pulled on to the property, we knew that it would be the perfect wedding venue for us. It is an incredibly stunning venue that offers an impressive amount of flexibility and options to create the wedding of your dreams.

![Lyric]()
Lyric Sent on 07/13/2023Incredible wedding venue
We could not recommend Keswick Vineyards more as a winery as well as a wedding venue! After contacting several wedding venues in the Charlottesville area, the moment we started talking to Cindy at Keswick, we knew this was the venue we were destined to get married at. So much so, we booked it without visiting beforehand. We were able to do a virtual tour with Cindy, and she answered all of our many questions with great detail and assured us we would have a perfect day. We fully put our trust in the Keswick team and could not be more thankful! Once we booked with them, we received a comprehensive recommended vendors list, which we followed and couldn't be happier with the vendors we worked with. They were all very experienced with working at Keswick Vineyards, which contributed to our wedding day flowing seamlessly.
Leading up to our wedding day, we were able to visit Keswick on many occasions - to do our wine tastings for the wedding, bury the bourbon, and do our final walkthrough. Each and every time, the team was so accommodating and eager to welcome us back. Grace, the Keswick Vineyards Wedding Event Sales Manager, is extremely on top of things and worked tirelessly to ensure we had everything we needed for our wedding and that we were comfortable with all the decisions we'd made.
The day of our wedding was absolutely perfect. The venue is stunning, and minimal decorations and florals are needed to enhance the space. Our guests could not stop raving about how beautiful the venue was - it felt like we were in the French countryside! The way the venue is set up also helps the day flow seamlessly - from the ceremony in the front facing the vineyard, to the cocktail hour area, down to the reception tent. Everything was stunning and we couldn't have imagined a more perfect day.
If you are considering booking Keswick Vineyards for your wedding day, do not hesitate! We are so thrilled to be able to continue visiting the tasting room for all our anniversaries to come.Keswick Vineyards's reply:
Lyric, we cannot thank you enough for such a glowing review, and are so grateful that your experience was so amazing! Your wedding was absolutely stunning. We can't stop thinking about it! And what beautiful photos. We hope to see you back here in the very near future! :) - Grace -

Maddie Sent on 05/15/2023The best venue EVER
Today is our one month of being married and my husband and I truly don't have the words to summarize Keswick Vineyards. We did what most couples do once they get engaged, which is to go venue shopping and nothing really popped out at us. In fact, we were about to call it quits and just get married in our backyard. Until we pulled up to Keswick Vineyards. The second we got out of our car we knew this was the one. Then we went inside and met Cindy and all the stars aligned. I can't say enough great things about how amazing she was with every single aspect of the wedding planning. She was thorough, kind, and made our vision come to life. Her team was nothing short of incredible. She encouraged us to bury the bourbon and thank goodness we did! It was supposed to rain (and yes, I called her almost in tears fearful that would happen) but she told me to believe in the bourbon and that everything would work out. Our wedding day was PERFECT and not one drop of rain, our fairytale dream came true. We wanted an outdoor wedding with a beautiful white tent and Keswick Vineyards exceeded our expectation. We were able to have our horse and carriage and our ceremony in front of their gorgeous home. From the breathtaking landscaping to the flawless getting ready rooms everything was spectacular. Don't get me started on the wine, which was to die for!!! We had Cindy, the owner, as our day-of coordinator (best decision we made) and her son was our videographer (another amazing decision) they are just the greatest people. We left feeling like we were family and I did tear up leaving the venue the day after the wedding because I was going to miss Cindy so much! I wish we could relive this day!Keswick Vineyards's reply:
Maddie, Your wedding was definitely a fairy tale! Your horse drawn carriage coming up through the vineyard was just breathless. I'm so happy the bourbon worked for you (did you ever doubt it:)). Be sure to come back and visit us along with your mom. We definitely created a special bond between all of us so this is just the beginning of a very long friendship! Cindy -

Alvina Sent on 12/02/2022Perfect wedding
Keswick was the first venue we checked out. Once we went to Keswick, all other venues really paled in comparison. The view, the scenary, the carriage house everything, blew us away. Most importantly, we were able to have our dogs with us on our special day.
Both Cindy and Lindsay were always so quick to respond to my onslaught of emails when the day was approaching. We knew we were in great hands. If there were any confusions, they were quick to clarify, and will do their best to work with you. Everyone at the wedding could not stop talking about how enchanting and mesmerizing the venue was! Everything was well taken care of, right from the start to the end. I can't thank them enough for our perfect fall wedding :)Keswick Vineyards's reply:
Alvina,
Thank you so much for your kind words! Cindy and I loved having the opportunity to be your coordinator!
It was such an honor being able to see you and Mike's wedding dreams come to life! Having the dogs there made the day even more special.
We wish you two the best! Come back and visit us:) -

Keswick Vineyards was nothing short of stunning and everything we were looking for in a venue! The staff are so friendly, helpful and quick to respond to questions! Our entire day from start to finish was so magical and we cannot thank the staff enough. Lindsay and Cindy were so sweet while remaining very transparent during the entire process which we appreciated. 10/10 would recommend this venue for your weddingKeswick Vineyards's reply:

Had our wedding here early September. All outdoor was a bit of a gamble with the weather, but my GOD this venue is gorgeous so any bit of heat and discomfort was totally offset by the party favor fans we provided and the STUNNING BEAUTY of the venue. All our guests were thrilled just being there. Perfect day, couldn't ask for more.Keswick Vineyards's reply:

We are so happy that you and Sarah had the perfect wedding day! It was such a pleasure working with you both!
The fans were a great surprise for your guests! -

Kadie Sent on 06/06/2022Overall a great experience
Overall, we are very pleased with everything Keswick had to offer. Being that we are from out of town, we relied heavily on their recommendations, which were excellent, and they made communication very easy. We also cancelled 3x due to the pandemic and they were very kind to let us reschedule without charging us additional. Cindy and her staff also saved the day when my coordinator didn't meet expectations, so honestly if it wasn't for them and the caterer taking over, it could have been a disaster. They made it run relatively seamlessly without her, which was much appreciated. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is planning a wedding in that area.Keswick Vineyards's reply:
Kadie,
Thank you for your kind review.
Cindy and I are so glad you finally got to have your dream wedding after having to reschedule 3 times! It was such a pleasure working with you and Chuck and we were happy to step in and make your day a success!

We couldn't be happier with our decision to get married at Keswick Vineyards. The venue was perfect for the entire day from getting ready in the bridal and grooms suites to the multiple ceremony and reception locations. The venue is absolutely beautiful and we received endless complements from our guests. Cindy and her team at Keswick Vineyards did everything they could to help make the day perfect. Leading up to the wedding they were very quick with responses and gave multiple recommendations for other vendors. After postponing a year due to COVID we were so happy with our wedding day and can't thank the Keswick Vineyards team enough!Keswick Vineyards's reply:
Jessica & Brandon,
Thank you for the kind review! We are honored to have been a part of your big day. We are so happy to hear that even after having to postpone your wedding due to COVID, you both still ended up having your dream day in the end! You truly got married at a magical time of the year here as the florals started blooming!
We think it is so special that the two of you got engaged at Keswick Vineyards and then ended up getting married here as well! Feel free to come back and visit us anytime! -

Keswick was an amazing place to get married. I still have guests commenting to me on how amazing the venue was and how gorgeous. The staff at Keswick was awesome to work with and really went above and beyond. The owners are really good people. The flow of the day was perfect, the sunset even better and the reception made for a really fun night. Cocktail hour was seamless and we had the games set up in the back lawn to allow for more activity. It was so romantic at night. I had a very large bridal party (12) and all of us and even family were able to have enough space to get ready and move about before the ceremony. I don't have a single regret on choosing this as our venue. The wine was also amazing (rose especially was a hit) and its awesome we have a place to visit now for years to come. Thank you again!!!Keswick Vineyards's reply:
Kelli and Chris,
Reviews like this mean the world to the team here at Keswick Vineyards. We are so happy to hear that you have zero regrets about the venue. We know weddings can be stressful so it is amazing to hear that the flow of the day was perfect, that is always our goal here!
We hope you all decide to visit us soon as we love when our couples come back to Keswick Vineyards! -
