Keswick Vineyards is a family-owned estate in Virginia's Blue Ridge foothills, 15 minutes from Charlottesville. Weddings use a 12-hour rental with outdoor ceremony and a tented reception, for up to about 200 guests, and tables, chairs, a Wedding Suite and the Lounge are included.

The story

A twelve-hour wedding in the Blue Ridge

Keswick Vineyards sits in a valley of rolling farmland ringed by the Blue Ridge Mountains, about 15 minutes from Charlottesville, under an hour from Richmond and roughly two hours from Washington, D.C. It is a family-owned vineyard, and weddings are held on the Edgewood Estate grounds. The Blue Ridge views frame both the ceremony lawn and the tented reception, and because the rental covers the tent and furnishings, there are fewer separate suppliers for the couple to arrange.

Couples book a 12-hour rental, adjustable with approval (for example 11 am to 11 pm), which leaves them free to set their own ceremony and reception times. Both are outdoors: the ceremony takes place on the estate lawn, which holds up to 200 guests, and the reception is held in a tent on the grounds.
