Stunning locations with friendly staff
Terry and Sharon are great to work with, they were there to answer all the questions and guide you through all the stages. Fast and thorough response to all questions and it was very easy to schedule times to see the venue before your big day. The balcony makes stunning wedding pictures!-

Retirement
When he retired my husband wanted to celebrate his staff of many years. The Obici house was a natural choice since we both worked at Obici for many years and had attended numerous functions there. We could not have asked for a better experience from planning to the celebration it was seamless and painless thanks to the dedicated staff that oversee the venue. We highly recommend the Obici House for any celebration and especially a wedding as it’s a beautiful venue. -

After we bought our house in Suffolk, we wanted to find a local venue for our family and friends to experience all Hampton Roads. After looking at several options, our search stopped after we saw the Obici House. Terry and Sharon, the event coordinators, were FANTASTIC. They quickly answered any questions and provided great suggestions, such as information on trusted vendors, which is how we found our photographer. In comparison to most vendors who have one or two caterers to choose from, the Obici House has five preferred catering companies to choose from; plus the Obici House has a bar, bar tenders and liquor license. The house is a blank canvas for every event, I had the choice to have it decorated to fit our wedding with the only limitation being - no glitter.
Our wedding day was perfect! The house layout accommodates every phase of the day from getting ready, the ceremony, social hour, photography sessions, dining and dancing without it feeling like one big open hall. Our guests loved the venue and repeatedly commented how beautiful not only the house itself was, but also the view of the water. We had several kids attend our ceremony, the multiple rooms plus the outside lawn provided open space for them to run and play. Terry and Sharon was amazing coordinators on the day of the wedding. They allowed me and the catering company more than enough time to get set up and ready. They were everywhere during the ceremony, social hour, and dining. After the first set of family pictures, I turned around to see Terry holding two glasses of iced water for me and my new husband.
If you're looking for an unforgettable venue for you and your guests, this is the place. You get it all under one roof, amazing views, choice of catering, and phenomenal customer service. We are so happy with our choice to use the Obici House for our wedding and highly recommend them. -

The Obici house is an absolutely beautiful place! The staff there really worked to make us happy and the quality of service was amazing. The best part was that the Obici House didn't break our bank! I can not thank them enough for making our wedding day so special! -

The Obici House made our wedding perfect. Terry was nothing but accommodating, and everything we wanted she gave us. If I could get married all over again I wouldn't change a thing. -

New Year’s Eve wedding
We had an outstanding experience with at the Obici House for a short notice New Year’s Eve wedding. Teri and Sharon went out of their way to make sure that everything was taken care of with utmost professionalism and kindness. As a mother of the bride, I would have no reservation in recommending their service and this venue for your wedding event! -

I am a event planner. I was able to put together a wedding ceremony and reception in less then 2 months because of the support offered by Mrs Terry Tagg of Obici House in Suffolk. I would recommend this location because of the professionalism shown to me, and the brides Mother during our visits. The day of the event things went smoothly because of her and the stagg. The Obici House is a beautiful venue. -

The Obici House kindly hosted our 'hurricane' wedding with uninvited guest Matthew. Needless to say, there was a lot of excitement that night with the crazy weather. Terry & staff were very accommodating throughout the event, making sure that all guests were safe & everyone was happy. We booked the venue about 10 months before our wedding & both Terry & Sharon were great with communication while we tried to set everything up via email. We were also able to make several trips out to The Obici House & they were always happy to work with us on scheduling. I just wish we could of had more time there the night of (which was the weather's fault - nothing to do with Obici). If you're looking for a great staff, historic/unique place & beautiful waterfront views, The Obici House is perfect for your wedding day! -

After our first visit here, we immediately fell in love with the vintage decor and beautiful water views at this home! Sharon was wonderful to work with. Super prompt and accommodating! She allowed us to visit the space as many times as we wanted in order to visualize everything. Unfortunately, it rained on our wedding day so we weren't able to take full advantage of the beautiful water views and grounds but the house is so lovely itself that our pictures will still be beautiful. If you are looking for a unique and historic setting, you will not be disappointed here. Sharon and Terry care so much about the venue and their bride and groom and really made us feel like family. -

Short Notice Wedding Dream Come True
My husband decided to move our wedding date up a year due to his departure for assignment. We started planning on December 30th and were able to get reasonable pricing, a tour of the venue, and secure thIs venue for our Ceremony on January 10th. We had a small indoor ceremony with 23 guests. If you looking for a vintage and intimate feel, I recommend this venue. The Bridal Suite and private dining room are amazing. Thank you Terry and Susan for helping arrange our wedding. Could not have asked for a better experience. Photos by MICHAELANDJASMINEPHOTOGRAPHY https://michaelandjasmine.com/ -

We really enjoyed our experience with Terri and Sharon (and staff) at the Obici House! From the minute we reserved the date, Terri was always available to answer questions, and provided much needed and timely information for us to continue making the right choices for our day. She went the extra mile to help us arrange a hot chocolate bar, and made the presentation of our seating chart look amazing! We had an unforgettable ceremony and reception, and couldn't have done it without Terri, Sharon and their team! If you're in the market for a venue, put The Obici House at the top of your list! -

They were very flexible! We rented the entire venue, but it was well worth it. We even had a fire pit out on the lawn. What a fantastic place for our wedding. It was private, being on the water and in the back of a golf course. There was plenty of parking, and it's location in N. Suffolk made it easy for our guests from all over to get to. -

Obici House
The Obici House was a wonderful place to have our small reception after our ceremony. It was beautiful, and the staff was easy to work with and flexible! We had to book late, because our plans changed a lot with COVID, and they made the process and transition really easy. This venue was beautiful and wonderful! -

One stop Celebrating!!
The Obici House was a wonderful experience for us and our guests. The wedding celebration was held on the steps of the house and the reception was inside. Included in the cost of the Venue, are the tables, chairs and basic linens not to mention they carry the liquor license and have huge amounts of parking. This is where you can get nickeled and dimed so having it all there really pays off. Terry was wonderful to work with and we appreciated her input on many preparations. There is plenty of parking and a beautiful view of the Sleepy Hole Gold Course and the Nansemond River. The Obici House is a beautiful historic home that needs very little decorating (another savings) with modern day amenities for your DJ. I highly recommend this venue for anyone that wants an indoor or outdoor venue! -
