We planned our wedding in less than 4 months, and Milton Ridge was an amazing choice. Meaghan was so understanding and always answered all of our questions in a timely manner. She coordinated so many things (some we may not even know about) which took a lot of pressure off of us as the couple! We loved how easy it was to do so many things in house (ceremony, reception, catering, DJ, etc.). The food was INCREDIBLE. I cannot tell you how many guests told us it was the best food they've had at a wedding reception! We were so grateful to find Milton Ridge and to work with them to put together our special day in such a short amount of time. :)

The top (reception area), bank (cocktail area or rain ceremony option), and bridal cottage are apparent, but the scope of vistas, privacy, and proximity to town are unique to Cloverdale Barn, and provide the value you and your guests will remember.

Cloverdale Barn is a fantastic venue! We got married there just over a year ago and still have the most vivid memories of the day, the surroundings and all the love we felt that day!! The people of Cloverdale Barn helped with that is so many ways. Claire is the one who I (bride) was in contact with throughout the whole process and she is so heartwarming and comforting! Very easy to work with and she makes you feel like family! From all the prep work, all the up to the last moment when we left the property through the sparkler line, Claire was there. They have several options to help you customize your event the way you want and Claire was open to the variations. We of course used it for our wedding and having the bridal suite on site was an added bonus for my day. I really liked how on the day of our wedding Claire added some pops of color to match our wedding colors with flowers in the outside flowers pots and table clothes on the bridal suite tables. She really does take the time to make your day feel extra special and I will forever be grateful to her and remember that day!!

I can not thank Turf Valley enough for making our wedding day so AMAZING! It was hands down the best day and I can not say enough good things about the staff and service. Leading up to our wedding day, Jenny was fantastic and always available to help us in the decision making process. To start our weekend, my girlfriends and I went to the spa! The spa was absolutely WONDERFUL and a great way to kick start our weekend! Crystal from the spa was so friendly and easy to work with! My husband went golfing while we went to the spa and he loved the course and service very much! We did a bridesmaids luncheon the Friday before the wedding and Steve from the restaurant was very helpful and nice to work with! For the entire weekend, Latisha was our right hand lady! She made for a very calm weekend and handled any problem we had with vendors immediately. She would frequently come check on us during the wedding to see if we needed anything. She helped keep us on track with our schedule throughout the wedding day. Latisha did anything and everything to help make it the smoothest day possible! All the staff were truly INCREDIBLE! We also loved the convenience of having the hotel at the same location as the reception. It was very easy for our wedding guests. I would 10/10 recommend Turf Valley!

The Manor At Airmont

5.0

Round Hill, VA
  • Up to 200 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

Celebrations at The Manor are one-of-a-kind events designed to tell your story. Whether it's a wedding weekend surrounded by 150 of your closest family and friends or simply a weekend away with a few friends to celebrate a birthday, The Manor offers the perfect setting. Nestled in the heart of VA's wine country on over 18 acres there are multiple indoor and outdoor locations to accommodate your event. The Manor at Airmont has multiple sites for ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Our venue offers an in-house design team and catering, and event planning and management options.

When looking for a venue the Manor was the second venue we’d seen out of five and after taking a tour with Anthony we crossed the rest off our list. When we visited I immediately felt it was elegant and classy but also warm and cozy. Their all inclusive package was a godsend, it removed the stress of having to interview and coordinate different vendors. They handled it all while keeping us comfortable with our budget. The design process was so much fun! Natallia really invested in getting to know us personally which would inspire her recommendations. I wasn’t a bride that had dreamt of every single detail down to the color of the napkins but I knew the style and ambiance I wanted and gave Natallia and her team artistic license to come up with designs that matched my inspiration board. The outcome was breathtaking. Several guests mentioned it was the most beautiful wedding they’d ever attended. A unique twist Natallia and her team came up with was a way to acknowledge that our wedding date also happened to be Cinco de Mayo. They set up a beautiful taco and tequila welcome bar before the ceremony that our guests devoured. The food from the welcome taco bar to cocktail hour to dinner and then the dessert bar was 5 star restaurant quality. The tasting event was my husband’s favorite part of the entire process but also the most difficult because it was too hard to choose with some many delicious options. We ended up upgrading our dinner menu and adding additional hors d’oeuvres. The artistic presentation combined with the decadent flavors had our guests complimenting for weeks. Choosing The Manor at Airmont was the best and easiest decision of the entire wedding process. Their staff were incredibly detailed, attentive, and genuine. The Manor is a truly special place, that makes all its guests feel welcome. This is a dream venue for any couple looking for a stunning location, with an exceptional design team, matched with delectable dishes and cocktails. I tell everyone I meet getting married that they need to book their wedding at The Manor!
