The Arch Meadow ceremony site
An intimate countryside wedding destination near Charlottesville
A private, family-owned 225-acre estate about 25 minutes from downtown Charlottesville. Choose from two outdoor ceremony sites, celebrate in a restored barn, and keep your closest people on site all weekend. Up to 150 guests.
Founding Couples: as we open our inaugural season, our first 10 couples receive 15% off the venue fee, on any date. Ask about your date.
Ceremony settings
Open pasture views at the Arch Meadow, or the quiet seclusion of Emberwood Pavilion. If the weather turns, your ceremony moves indoors to LumeCrown Hall.
Pasture-view ceremony lawn
Say your vows on an open lawn set on slightly higher ground. Behind the ceremony pergola, the horse pastures and wide countryside views stretch into the distance. It's at its best at golden hour.
Secluded ceremony hollow
Tucked into a sheltered hollow with the forest beyond, Emberwood feels like a quiet little world of its own. A paver promenade leads from the Bridal Suite to a ceremony lawn with a pavilion and fire pit.
Larry and Tina laid the paver promenade and fire pit themselves. About the farm
Indoor barn reception hall
A restored barn, now a climate-controlled, 2,400-square-foot reception hall that keeps its rustic character and adds modern comforts. It doubles as your indoor ceremony space.
The hall opens up on all four sides. Including the restrooms, that's more than 5,200 sq ft of covered space, so your celebration can carry on rain or shine.
Real, climate-controlled restrooms, finished like the rest of the hall. They sit in their own wing off the back porch, on the same level as the hall, so guests never walk far or step outside.

Getting ready
A private, 2,000 sq ft getting-ready suite on the terrace level of the Residence, with three connected rooms.
From the suite, walk straight onto the paver promenade to Emberwood Pavilion, or take the steps up to the Arch Meadow.
A garden Tina, one of our owners, designed and planted herself, with seasonal plantings, winding paths and a garden swing. A favorite spot for portraits.
A 7,000 sq ft home where up to 10 guests can stay through the weekend: five bedrooms, a chef's kitchen, and a sunroom that opens onto the Grand Sunrise Deck.
A 1,800 sq ft east-facing deck with treetop views, a gazebo, a built-in bar and serving counter. Soft light in the morning and shade in the afternoon, for coffee, cocktail hour or a welcome party.
