Top 10 Virginia Wedding Resorts: Berry Hill Resort

Berry Hill Resort and Conference Center opened in 1728, and has been refining its colonial elegance ever since. Which means that today, you can hold your spectacular Virginia wedding at a place that certainly has stood the test of time. Metaphorical, isn’t it?

Actually, metaphors aren’t needed much at Berry Hill - reality is breathtaking enough. It’s hard to wrap your mind around what it means to stand in a structure that’s been here for almost 300 years. This used to be a 105,000-acre plantation, and it still looks like one today; the main building is a carefully-restored Greek revival mansion built in 1842, when Berry Hill was already well over a century old.

Besides the obvious - and numerous - spectacular indoor and outdoor settings for your wedding, Berry Hill Resort offers a complete staff for planning, food and beverages and more. That’s not to mention the complete range of services and bridal packages at the exquisite Blackberry Spa, right onsite at Berry Hill. It’s the most modern, historical Virginia wedding you can imagine.
