Montfair Resort Farm

My husband and I cannot recommend this venue enough! We wanted a naturally beautiful wedding in a place we loved and we got exactly that. We currently live out of state so we were worried about the process of picking a venue but Victoria was so helpful with the process and worked around our schedules to fit us in a tour when we were back in Virginia. She was always available through email and phone and was very responsive. As for the venue itself, there are too many good things to say! I recommend getting at least the 2 day wedding weekend so you know your wedding will be the priority and you can start getting things set up early. I also recommend booking all of the cabins; first for the priority people then allowing guests to claim them, they go fast because all the guests want to be on location. This is really important because we were told Ubers typically won't come out that far. There are multiple ceremony sites throughout the venue so you have plenty of say in what you want your wedding to look like. The lodge is also such a perfect place for the reception, including a massive deck for partying. The pictures and pricing (Charlottesville is so expensive) cannot be beat and we can't wait to return again. GET MARRIED HERE!!!

We fell in love with this venue online then once we arrived on site we knew it was the one. They are so easy and nice to work with plus you can stay on site if you’d like. Their cabins are so cute and fully stocked. There is so much todo on the property and they are not far from breweries/wineries, etc. Our wedding was absolutely perfect at Montfair and we can not rave enough about this place and people!

Montfair was an amazing venue! It is so beautiful, and we were thrilled to hold our wedding there! Our guests were all raving about our location! We had such a perfect wedding day! Victoria was great to work with! She was quick to respond to all our emails and answer all our questions. She was really organized and so helpful! She really helped us plan the perfect wedding. We could not recommend Montfair more!

Hosted our wedding in April 2023 at Montfair and it was incredible. From the start of selecting Montfair as our venue we loved the mixture of spaces and views that it offered to us. When it all came to life and our guests got to experience what we had been planning and be part of all the different spaces it was just magical. It offers the classic Charlottesville views with the blue ridge mountains in the background, the green pastures, and fence lines, and then feelings of nature under the trees, the lake, and the deck space and lodge were excellent for having indoor and outdoor offerings. It was the perfect mix of spaces and a relaxed outdoor vibe that we were going for. Our guests were wowed by it all. We booked the entire weekend so we had events Friday and Saturday, our friends stayed in all of the cabins, and we stayed in the main Beauchamp House with our dog. It was all perfect and highly recommend booking the full weekend if you can - for the price and value it's unbeatable. Other venues we considered would have been the same price for just 8 hours on Saturday that we paid for the entire weekend. Working with Victoria and the Montfair team was fantastic, we got lots of great ideas from her and they were open and accommodating to what we wanted.

The reception space had cement floors with a muddy gravel path leading to the ceremony field and no accessibility. I don’t know why anyone would choose to get married in this dumpy “resort”.

We held our May 2022 wedding at Montfair and had a wonderful experience from start to finish. The staff is easy to get in touch with and willing to answer any and all questions. We went out to tour the space multiple times, and the Montfair staff (especially Victoria) were accommodating and willing to let us see the space as many times as we needed in order to feel confident! We rented all cabins and the venue space for the entire weekend so that our wedding party and families could stay on site with us, which was absolutely worth it and honestly very affordable for what you get! It ended up raining on the actual wedding day, but it was unclear what the weather would be; Montfair was flexible with setting up chairs and a tent a day beforehand just in case, and it was a relief to have the tent set up when it did end up raining! We got many compliments from guests on the venue space, and the casual but beautiful vibe on Montfair was exactly what we were looking for. I'd recommend Montfair as a wedding location to anyone!

The best venue!!!! My husband and I booked this venue the day after we got engaged without having ever seen it in person based on a recommendation from a trusted friend. They were initially already booked for the year, but they took a chance on us and let us have Thanksgiving weekend-- the latest wedding they've done in a given year. It was everything we could have asked for and more. We had friends coming in from all over the world, so having the cottages on site was absolutely perfect. We had the rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception, and send-off brunch all in the same location. It was extremely convenient. The location is absolutely stunning-- the mountains provide a perfect backdrop, and there is a gorgeous lake for waterfront photos. The bridal suite is perfect for gorgeous getting-ready photos. The team at Montfair is the greatest part of all. These are the coolest, most down-to-earth folks in the wedding business, a very rare gem. We were able to choose our own vendors, and the team at Montfair was always there to answer questions from myself, my husband, our friends and families. They were always so kind and helpful. Our guests and bridal party had a blast, and so did we. It was the perfect, stress free weekend-- not a common feat in this industry! Could not recommend them more.

HAVE YOUR WEDDING HERE! Montfair was the most incredible venue we could have asked for. Our guests were wow'ed by the beauty of the property and it was so wonderful to have our wedding party stay in the Montfair cottages with us. There are so many thoughtful/unique touches (pictures in canoe, Japanese lanterns, bonfire) and the views are incredible. Montfair made sure the whole weekend went perfectly. Victoria was so incredibly helpful throughout our wedding planning process and went above and beyond to make sure we had all our questions answered. The staff at Montfair were all so helpful and kind. They made sure that the chairs/games/bonfire were all set up as we asked. Seriously, get married at this magical place! We can't wait to come back and stay in the cabins again to relive our wedding weekend!

I knew this venue was perfect from the moment I saw it online. It was such a beautiful wedding! The reception lodge was magical and the ceremony field was stunning! We booked all the cabins on site and wouldn’t have done it any other way. The bonfire was a great addition for our guests to enjoy. The only thing that caused some negativity was the staff member who was there. She made us feel rushed and kept reminding us when we needed to leave as if we weren’t aware of it. We payed to have the whole venue for 2 nights and the fire is scheduled until midnight. They reminded us about 5 times when we needed to be cleaned up and out even after we stated we understood the first time. The fire was almost out at 10 and when we asked for more wood, the person made sure we knew again we were to be gone at midnight. Then they gave us yet another warning for 30 minutes. I felt that they were treating us like children and did not appreciate being rushed out of my own wedding that we spent a lot of our hard earned money on just because they booked one the next day. I still give it 5 stars because it was absolutely perfect in all other aspects! Victoria Sours was amazing throughout the whole process and the Beauchamp House was perfect for the bridal party to get ready in. The cabins were perfect for our wedding party too! My guests were all saying it was the most fun wedding they’d ever been to!

Montfair was the second venue we toured and we knew fairly quickly that it was a great fit for us. We wanted a venue that brought in nature but wasn't fully outside, and also wasn't fully "rustic" (just not our vibe). Montfair fit that bill beautifully -- we loved having the option to have our ceremony in the field surrounded by the fall colors, or down by the lake. We opted for the field, but also made use of the lake space by utilizing their bonfire. Our guests also loved the venue for its beauty, space, and the bonfire too. The inside of the event lodge (where we had our reception) can be decorated in so many ways, it's a very versatile space and ended up being exactly what we were looking for. Our wedding was around 60 guests, so we had lots of options (the field, the lake, the lodge, and the large tented decks). Highly recommend this venue! (There are also on site accommodations, including a house we were able to use to get ready in. This is a huge plus for those who wish to get ready on site and who might have family coming in from out of town! It was super convenient for us!) Victoria and Lisa were very accommodating during our entire wedding planning process, and we appreciate their responsiveness and customer service!

When we first got engaged, I did some casual venue searching. I had an idea in mind - something rustic, with an unobstructed, picturesque view of the mountains. My husband and I are both from flat areas, so I knew I wanted a very "Virginia" vibe as the backdrop to our wedding as a homage to the state where we met and fell in love. Within minutes, I came across Montfair. I instantly knew from the little thumbnail image that popped up in the search results that this was the venue for us. As I clicked and scrolled through more pictures, reviews, and package pricing, I became more convinced. However, I thought for sure since it was my dream venue, it must be the dream venue for many others, and was hesitant to reach out in case I received disappointing news that they were fully booked. After touring alternatives and not finding a good fit, I re-searched Montfair and decided to submit an inquiry through their website. Victoria reached out to us within 48 hours with the good news that there were still some dates available in our time frame, so we got to work scheduling a viewing. From the get-go, Victoria was very flexible and pleasant to work with, and she was able to work around me and my husband's crazy work schedules to find a time that worked for us all. At the viewing, Victoria took time to review some paperwork with us and answer questions, and followed up with us 2 business days after our visit to thank us for visiting . When we decided to sign on, there were some technical difficulties with getting the e-contract to us that caused us to technically not sign within the time frame they held the dates for us, but the Montfair team was very understanding and quick to find a solution so we were still able to sign and get our ideal date. We initially signed for a one day (Saturday) wedding since there were already events the day before and after planned, but when the event on Friday cancelled, Montfair reached out to us to see if we'd be interested in reserving that day. We reserved Friday as well and are so glad we did. We got to enjoy the venue for one more day by having our rehearsal dinner there and having the wedding party and family spend the night before the wedding on-site, so that we were all together and ready to prepare the morning of the main event. The guests all loved their accommodations, with one of my bridesmaids booking her next visit as soon as we arrived. The Beauchamp House was the perfect "getting ready" venue, with lots of natural lighting and space. The on-site staff who was present for our wedding, Ayla, was a welcome presence, as she made sure we were all comfortable and answered any questions the guests had during their stay. All in all, Montfair was one of the best choices we made for our wedding. From planning to breaking down, the staff was willing to work to get us the best experience possible (and didn't even bat an eye when 2 of our guests fell in the lake and got a canoe stuck). I got the mountain pictures and rustic lodge feel I wanted, and the guests enjoyed their cabins and the activities available to them. We used the inside of the lodge for our reception dinner and the covered deck as our cocktail area and dance floor, but the space can be set up however the couple wants and function well. I can't wait to return here to celebrate our anniversary next year (as a bonus, couples who are married here get a discount when they book a cabin stay). I can't imagine if we had our wedding anywhere else.

Look no further - get married here! Montfair Resort Farm is the absolute dream site to get married. We just got married this past weekend and I cannot stop looking at pics. It was a stunning location, and our guests were in awe. From the moment we set foot on the property I fell in love. It is absolutely gorgeous, with sweeping views of mountains and beautiful scenery with trees and wildflowers. This is an oasis of beauty and tranquility. What we loved the most was how it had the most epic views, but had such a low-key vibe. My vision for my wedding was if Backpacker Magazine and Vogue had a baby. That’s what I wanted. Gorgeous nature setting with elegant touches. If you are into nature and the outdoors this is where you should get married. We had a stunning ceremony with the most amazing weather in August. The cocktail hour and reception was awesome outside and on a gorgeous deck that was tented with lights (this comes with the venue and they don’t charge extra!!). We had a small wedding of 50 guests and our kid guests were obsessed with the lake, hopping in the canoes and catching fish as their parents enjoyed wine from the deck watching them. We had a bonfire, and it made the whole event just feel so special. Every interaction we had with Victoria at Montfair was spectacular. She is a clear communicator, and is so genuine, authentic and friendly. She truly wanted to help us, and let our weekend be “ours.” Our close family and bridal party loved being on-site in the cabins. She let us use any vendor we wanted, helped make recommendations when we asked, and made our guests feel special. We are just blown away by this entire weekend and site. Stop looking, get married here. One last note! The first time we went to see Montfair, we had scheduled 2 other venues to look at on the same day which were wineries. We saw Montfair, met Victoria and loved it. We left and went to a local winery. As soon as we pulled in I knew I didn’t want to get married somewhere like that. It felt like a cattle call. They basically handed us a schedule of what our day-of-timeline would be and nothing was personal. As soon as we left that site we called Victoria to see if we could come back. She kindly said yes, we went back and secured our wedding date and weekend.

Victoria and the entire events team at Montfair Resort Farm are truly amazing. My husband and I were married in a very small ceremony in January 2021, but wanted to plan a belated wedding celebration with all of our family and friends for when he returned from a military deployment. We found Montfair through a Google search, as we knew we wanted to host our celebration in the greater Charlottesville area but wanted a venue that allowed outside food and beverages, as we had dreamed of having pizza and wanted to use a family connection in the beverage industry for drinks/alcohol. Montfair Resort Farm was the first and only venue we visited, not simply because of the beautiful and unique grounds (where else can you find a gorgeous ceremony field AND a cozy, rustic lodge overlooking ample grass for lawn games, as well as a calm, clear lake? Not to mention on-site accommodations for all of our HUGE wedding party of 26, plus our families!), but also because of our amazing tour with Victoria. Although Montfair does not have an official on-site wedding coordinator (they do provide day-of event supervisors), Victoria goes above and beyond; she was always available during the 15 months from booking to our event, very much functioning as a coordinator in helping me plan our special weekend. She asks the right questions at the right times in the planning process to ensure your weekend is everything you'd envisioned - and in our case, more than we'd hoped for! - because she really cares about her couples. Both of our families, as well as most of our guests, have been gushing about how awesome our wedding was, many citing the amazing venue as the best they'd ever been to (which is especially notable since our guests came from all over the country). While I am so happy to have enjoyed such a wonderful day, I am going to miss emailing and meeting with Victoria, as she is not only amazing at her job, but an amazing person. Thank you so much, Victoria & Montfair Team!

We hosted our June 2022 wedding at Montfair and we are so happy we did. So many of our guests were blown away with the natural beauty of the place! I would describe the vibe as camp-like which was perfect for us.

We had such an amazing wedding at Montfair! As if the venue, location, and VIEWS aren’t enough to make Montfair worth it, everyone we worked with there was incredibly nice, supportive, and helped make our dream wedding come true! We felt so supported by the staff, especially Victoria who was always available to answer our questions leading up to and during our wedding weekend. I would definitely recommend Montfair to anyone who is looking for the outdoor wedding of their dreams.

We celebrated our wedding at Montfair in March, and we could. not. imagine a more beautiful weekend! From the initial venue tour that completely put hearts in our eyes, to the conclusion of our incredible wedding weekend, Victoria Sours and the rest of Montfair's staff went above and beyond for us.Victoria helped us choose vendors, structure our weekend, and navigate any and all questions and requests. She kindly helped remind us of deadlines to keep things flowing, and always communicated promptly. When it came to the big weekend, Montfair made the cottages look so welcoming, and the lodge was beyond beautiful. When we were hit with crazy weather, they were adaptable and helped us take the right measures to make people comfortable. Montfair delivered everything we asked for and more as a wedding venue, and we're so thankful to Victoria, Isla, and the rest of the staff. The stay at Montfair provided a refreshing escape for our guests and THE most memorable experience for Sam and me! We recommend it with all our hearts!

Such a wonderful venue! It was absolutely perfect for us. We booked the weekend package and hosted all three events - a Friday night welcome party, Saturday wedding, and Sunday morning brunch. We couldn't have asked for a better place to get married and can't wait to take our kids there in the future!

The venue was what made our wedding weekend what it was. We really leaned into the vibe of the venue and invited 45 of our friends to a weekend at camp. The cabins are small but adorable and cozy. I knew that the venue was going to be sweet and cute, but I never anticipated how gorgeous and sophisticated it could feel. The team was so accommodating, and exceptional. They moved tables for us, set up games, and so many things were included. This place set the vibe for the weekend, and no one could stop talking about how special of a place it was. Such an amazing decision!

We had our wedding at Montfair in August 2021 and it was just absolutely perfect: it is a gorgeous setting but also very laid back and with lots of space for our guests. Victoria and the rest of the Montfair staff were incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, from visiting Montfair (all the way back in December 2018!), to postponing as a result of the pandemic (our original date was scheduled in June 2020), to working out all the details leading up to the final date. We really couldn't have asked for a better place to get married!

Montfair is an amazing wedding venue. This was the best decision we ever made! Not only is the venue stunning, there are great accommodations for the wedding weekend and activities for the guests to do. The Montfair staff is stellar in making sure everything goes according to plan and your day is exactly how you imagine. They were extremely thoughtful and flexible during the pandemic which says a lot about how much they care about their couples. If you're thinking about Montfair, it's the best choice!!!

When we were imagining our wedding, we wanted to create a true weekend destination for our guests both near and far. Otherwise, the event goes by so quickly - ceremony, cocktails, reception, and off everyone goes. Thanks to the flexibility of the space and the rental packages at Montfair, we were able to build an experience - a peaceful retreat amid the bucolic Blue Ridge, with adorable cottages onsite, campfire s'mores, kickball, dance classes, craft workshops, cooking and wilderness survival lessons, a true blank slate for any of our silly ideas. And then, poof, we had the best of both worlds - a stunning backdrop for our ceremony and standard wedding dance floor throw down. Montfair's team truly care about the success of your event and offers thorough resources to guide you along the way, but the freedom to paint your own canvas when the weekend comes around. Note: if you are looking for a full service venue where an onsite team is responsible for all furniture shifts and managing guest-facing elements, this might not be a fit without a super hands-on catering partner. Our guests had a wonderful time and kept remarking what a special place this was to gather and celebrate our next adventure. Additionally, we were grateful for a variety of options for rain and wind plans.

We had our wedding at Montfair and we also rented out all the cabins and stayed there along with our bridal party, families, and guests. We absolutely loved everything about our wedding at Montfair. From our initial communication with Victoria (the event manager) all the way to the multiple visits we had, final walkthrough, and our wedding weekend everything was great. They communicated with us really well. Cabins were nice, and the Beauchamp House was such a delight to get ready in. But most importantly, that amazing view! Despite the rain on our wedding day, all guests commented about the amazing mountain views and how the lodge was so sweet and cozy. We would absolutely choose Montfair Resort Farm any day.

I couldn't be happier about getting married at Montfair! The views were incredible, the reception space was wonderful, and the people were so friendly and helpful! We rented out all the cabins for guests and stayed the whole weekend, our guests loved the canoes, fishing, and bikes available. The bonfire after the reception was the absolute cherry on top, I couldn't have imagined a more perfect venue!

We added Montfair to a list of possible venues in Charlottesville but as soon as we got there, we were ready to cancel all our other tours. Victoria was an absolutely wonderful venue guide and she even put out photo books of other same-sex couples who had used the venue, which made us feel so welcomed. Once we got to planning, she was readily available to help with vendor recommendations and venue details. Our wedding at Monfair was the most beautiful weekend we could have imagined - the entire staff was friendly and responsive, the cabins are cozy and wonderful, and the venue is just all around gorgeous. Getting to have all our wedding events in the same location from Friday to Sunday made things so easy on us, and really made us feel like we picked the right venue. Plus, our guests loved being able to stay on-site, the mountain views, and the outdoor activities (especially the bonfire!). We couldn't recommend it enough!!

We had the absolute best experience getting married at Montfair Resort Farm and could not have asked for a better venue. We were supposed to get married here a year ago, but due to COVID we pushed it back to 2021, and throughout the entire process of planning and replanning, etc. the staff at Montfair has been nothing but supportive, flexible, and understanding. They were quick to respond via email or phone whenever we had questions, and incredibly accommodating in every way. And that's just the beginning of why we are so thankful we got married here. The pictures don't do justice how beautiful this venue is. Between the mountain views and the lake and the beautiful forest that surrounds it, it was just the most beautiful day. We also loved that our bridal party and family could stay at the venue, which was not only just convenient, but so much fun! We can't say enough how perfect our wedding day was, and we can't wait to come back to stay at Montfair as guests in the future!

We had our wedding at Montfair this summer and it was amazing! Our wedding party stayed in the cabins by the lake which made it really easy to coordinate when the night was over. Best of all, I don’t think there is a more beautiful ceremony setting than the Montfair ceremony field. The blue ridge mountain backdrop is stunning. We received many compliments from guests on the venue.

Montfair Resort Farm was the PERFECT venue for our weekend destination wedding. We opted for the destination package, which gave us access to the Lodge and all the cabins for the whole weekend and it was absolutely the right choice. It was so nice to have all of our family and wedding party on-site for the entire weekend, and we were able to spend so much more time together than we would have at a more traditional venue. Victoria is the best -- she is organized, flexible, and responsive -- and the rest of the staff was incredibly helpful in making sure our vision for the weekend was achieved. As an LGBT+ wedding, we were concerned with selecting a venue that would treat us like any other couple, and every single person at Montfair showed us nothing but love. Montfair really was the perfect venue for our laid back, casual wedding weekend.

We had a smaller, intimate wedding with friends and family, and had the property to ourselves Friday through Sunday. Our wedding was everything we hoped for, and we couldn’t have dreamed up a more perfect location - every spot on the property is absolutely beautiful. The drive to the venue is also lovely and scenic (we had our guests download directions ahead of time and nobody had issues getting there). The venue itself is wonderful. We had our ceremony outdoors, with a mountain backdrop, and our reception indoors/outdoors, at the lodge. There was something for everyone. You could stay inside the lodge, move out to the deck, play lawn games, enjoy the bonfire, look out over the lake, go for a walk, or just catch your breath in your cabin. It was the perfect mix of options and activities to bring people together for an idyllic weekend, no matter the personality type. If you’re looking for a stunning, outdoorsy venue with a lot of flexibility, this is IT! Victoria worked with us before and during the event and helped make planning and preparation easy. She was calm, organized, and supportive throughout the entire process! We would highly recommend Montfair to anyone looking to get married in the Shenandoah area!!!

Montfair was an absolutely perfect venue for our Memorial Day Weekend wedding! We rented out all of the cabins for our families and close friends and hosted our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception, and farewell brunch on site. The staff at Montfair were amazing and accommodated all of our wishes, from working with us on multiple planning visits to setting up both outdoor and indoor fires (it was unseasonably cold for the rehearsal dinner). Victoria also kept in regular contact with us through the winter and spring as the pandemic regulations evolved. Aside from its natural beauty, what really set Montfair apart for us was the ability to have the entire venue reserved for the weekend. For the same price, if not less than, we would've spent for five hours at a local vineyard, we had all of Montfair available for our use from Saturday afternoon through Monday morning. This allowed our families to spend the entire weekend together, which made the occasion even more special.

Best. Venue. Ever. My husband and I knew this was the venue the moment we stepped out of the car to view it! It was by far the prettiest place we had ever seen and it made us feel completely at ease. It has a rustic vibe but with a hint of elegance as well! The staff were so accommodating to our visions and were very easy to work with! The best part is they allow dogs to be present during the ceremony and the reception!! So if you like us, want your faithful companion at your wedding... this is the place for you!

I can honestly say that having our wedding at Montfair was the best decision my husband and I could have made! The moment we pulled up to the property, we just knew this is where we wanted to get married. The views are absolutely breathtaking no matter where you are on the property. We rented out the venue for the entire weekend so we could enjoy it to its fullest – canoeing, swimming in the lake, hiking, sitting around the bonfire and relaxing. Montfair allows so much flexibility to plan out exactly what you have in mind for your big day. The staff, especially Victoria, went above and beyond for us throughout the planning process. My husband and I planned our wedding during COVID, and we also had a hurricane threat the weekend of our wedding. I didn’t have to stress out about any of that because Victoria made so many great recommendations to ensure my vision would still come to life, regardless of what hurdles were thrown our way. My husband and I are already planning to spend our anniversary back at Montfair, and we look forward to doing that for years to come. I would recommend Montfair to anyone couple looking to plan their perfect wedding day/weekend!

As professional photographers, we greatly enjoyed shooting a wedding at Montfair Resort Farm. The site the couple used for the ceremony provided a gorgeous spot for photos. All the staff were helpful and professional. This is a beautiful venue for a more rustic wedding and has ample lodging on site where out of town guests can stay.

Montfair Resort Farm was the only venue we looked at. From the moment we pulled in, we knew it was where we wanted to get married. First with its beautiful views, and then we spoke with those who work there who instantly felt like family. It felt like home. Many of our guests asked how we found such a place, and we are still hearing how beautiful and perfect it was. Everyone fell in love with it just as much as we did. Montfair was more then I could have ever imagined for our wedding, and I can't wait to return for anniversaries, family reunions, and simply just any chance I get.

Montfair absolutely nailed it! It is a low-key, down-to-earth venue surrounded by nature that is rustic but still appropriate for a wedding with a beautiful backdrop, just enough amenities, and experienced, professional staff. We rented the cottages on the property for guests to stay, and used the main house as a staging area for the wedding party. Our guests enjoyed the property, from fishing to reading a book in a canoe on the lake to exploring on mountain bikes. We had a welcome bonfire at the lake on Friday night (Montfair will tend the fire for you). The venue is very customizable - for example, we had a yoga class in the lodge on the morning of the wedding, and brought in a chef of our choice. There is limited cell service which meant everyone was fully present. All in all, we couldn’t have been happier with the experience and would highly recommend Montfair to other couples! We plan to return often in the years to come and soak in all the memories.

Montfair was the perfect place to have our wedding! The first time we went to view the resort for the wedding we knew it was the place. The owners and everyone else who works there are AMAZING!! They were all so accommodating and very easy to work with! I can't say enough good things about Montfair!

Montfair was perfect for us. We looked for somewhere rustic, elegant, and capable of hosting the wedding party and family over a long weekend. We rented the venue and all cabins for the entire weekend. Simply put, they were fantastic to work with, accommodating in every way. The venue itself was great. People who stayed onsite loved the cabins and they were clean and well appointed. Our caterers and other event staff were able to work seamlessly with Montfair's staff. The setting and countryside was gorgeous. I wouldn't have been married anywhere else! They bent over backwards to make sure our wedding went off without a hitch but were mostly invisible. So much work went into making our event special and they managed to keep it all behind the scenes. Our only suggestion is to rent some golf carts so you can get around the property quickly. Your wedding weekend is too short to spend it walking from place to place. I would recommend Montfair to anyone. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Montfair was the perfect venue for our wedding! Victoria and her staff handled every detail that we and our wedding planner threw at them with ease and grace. All of our guests could not stop complimenting the beautiful scenery we had for the entire weekend. With the Blue Ridge Mountain backdrop, easy access to trails and the comfortable wooden lodge our guests truly enjoyed their getaway in the woods. Kids and adult guests alike loved swimming and floating around the pond. Convenient having close family and friends stay in the cabins and everyone else nearby in Charlottesville. Everything was made so easy we wish we could get married again.

We had a WONDERFUL experience at Montfair for our wedding weekend. We loved having our family and bridal party stay in the cabins and inviting guests to tent camp. The Beauchamp house was a nice place for our parents to stay and it also served as a place for wedding "projects" (doing flower arrangements the day before and organizing decorations) and for the bridal party to get ready. We also loved that the entire place is very dog friendly! Overall, this was the perfect setting for the kind of wedding we had in mind. It was the perfect balance between laid-back and naturey and nice. It might be important to know that cell phone service is non-existent out there. They definitely make up for it with good wifi in all cabins, but at times this made it tricky to coordinate people.

Our Montfair wedding couldn’t have been more beautiful. The mountain backdrop, the open field, and the open, wooden lodge with a big deck were exactly what we wanted. We had a smaller wedding (~70 guests) and many of our family and friends stayed in the cabins. The lodge was perfect for our rehearsal dinner and reception. Every outdoor wedding couple worries about rain, of course, but we worried a lot less knowing that the lodge deck with its lovely pond view was our rain option. The staff was friendly and helpful and we were pretty much allowed to bring in whatever vendors we wanted. We used both the fireplace and bonfire and the guests loved it. We didn't have to lift a finger to do the fire - the staff did it all. It was great value for the cost. I also love the fact that we get a discount when we rent cabins there in the future... it is such a sweet, quiet location and will be perfect for romantic anniversary getaways! Some things to be aware of - and these aren’t drawbacks, just things to know. (1) There is no cell reception, so last-minute calls to vendors or photographers or wayward guests can be a challenge. Wifi is available though. The great thing is that you can plan for an “unplugged” weekend if your people are on board with that! (2) The location, which is hilly and has a lot of gravel roads, can be a challenge for older guests or those with reduced mobility. We rented golf carts and that definitely helped.

Montfair provided us with such a perfect location for our wedding! We wanted a space that could accommodate an outdoor wedding but also have a beautiful indoor option in case of weather. It ended up raining on our wedding so we got married on the deck looking over the lake and had our reception in the lodge. It still felt like an "outdoor" wedding and ended up being really lovely and intimate! All of our family and friends stayed in the cabins the whole weekend which really provided a "destination wedding" feel even though we are local. The event planning staff was super helpful in making those last minute day-of changes as well as answering questions leading up the wedding. We love Montfair!

We couldn't have asked for a better venue. It fit with exactly what we wanted. We loved having many of our guests stay on site. We spent a whole long weekend at the venue which made the experience even more memorable. Everyone at Montfair was so kind and helpful. Victoria went above and beyond to answer our many questions before the wedding. We had a blast doing picnics, bonfires, and canoeing throughout the weekend. Even though it was 90 degrees and almost everything was outside, we would not have changed the venue for anything. Besides our friends and family, the venue made the wedding. The views are breathtaking, the lake is gorgeous, and the whole feel is one of relaxation. If you are looking for an outdoorsy wedding and want to celebrate all weekend long, I couldn't recommend this place enough. We can wait to return as guests!

We had our wedding at Montfair in March 2019, and are so so thankful we did! Between the beautiful grounds, extremely helpful and friendly staff, and the ease of the whole wedding planning process, we would choose this venue again a million times over. The scenery is beautiful, the cabins are cozy, and the views from the ceremony field and reception hall are breath-taking. The team in place is timely and supportive in everything they do, and we could not have been more impressed with the group of individuals that helped bring our vision to life. We searched for the perfect venue for month, and knew from the moment we set foot on-site that Montfair was just that. We will be making a habit of regularly visiting Montfair in the future, and would highly recommend this venue for any of your wedding needs!

Montfair Resort Farm was the first wedding venue we visited and I immediately knew that it was where we would get married! The mountain views are breathtaking, the lake views are gorgeous, and the lodge is beautifully decorated with string lights. Montfair provides plenty of space and different locations for your ceremony and reception and works great in case it rains on your wedding day like it did on ours! Every single member of the staff at Montfair that we worked with was so incredibly helpful, flexible, friendly, and professional. From our first visit to our many follow-up emails and phone calls, we always felt taken care of. They offered great suggestions which helped our planning process and made our wedding day so smooth and easy. Don't hesitate to book your wedding with Montfair - it is an unforgettable and magical place to get married! I also highly recommend booking a cottage or two for family members to stay overnight, and my husband and I stayed in the house which was so comfortable and a great space to get ready. We can't wait to go back and visit Montfair for a weekend getaway!

Montfair was a dream come true for our venue. We wanted wedding to feel magical, like a fantasy come to life. Montfair is so naturally beautiful, surrounded by trees and mountain views. We wanted a venue all our closest friends and family could stay, so Montfair's cozy cottages were exactly what we were looking for. It was absolutely perfect. The whole venue is stunning, the place felt right the moment we entered the property. Cozy, magic, beautiful, the perfect place to have our wedding. The staff also made everything easy, they were all wonderful to work with. Katie, the event coordinator at montfair, was especially helpful and so sweet! She made planning with Montfair so easy, and fun! And our wedding was not the easiest to plan, as my mom and I were doing all the planing ourselves. We had a difficult time trying to decide how to seat our large guest list for dinner ( we had a large wedding for the venue size). Katie was so kind and absolutely patient in helping us measured things out, and everything worked perfectly for our guest list size. If you're considering montfair as your venue I strongly suggest it. The place has a feeling about it, its so full of love and magic! My husband and I can't wait to visit again.

I have so many nice things to say about Montfair it's hard to find a place to start. We chose Montfair for its breath taking views from the wedding field and the perfectly charming reception lodge. Its truly the whole package! You couldn't even tell that a hurricane rolled through just two weeks before our big day, the staff is THAT good. From the owners, to the office and cleaning staff everyone was so friendly and knowledgeable of the property and surrounding vendors. Everything was exceptionally clean from the picture perfect windows of the lodge to the parking lot, not a single piece of litter on the ground. I can't thank the Montfair team enough for providing the perfect place for our wedding. It was a dream come true!

This place was perfect. It was gorgeous, housed almost all of our guests, and the staff were so incredibly helpful and kind! They couldn’t have been better. I got my dream come true with this venue!

Montfair was hands down the BEST decision we made (besides getting married of course). It is one of those unique places that takes your breath away the moment you drive up to the venue. If you're the kind of bride who is looking for a place that is heartfelt, the people are kind, and the physical space is rustic and gorgeous and completely flexible to whatever you want - vendors, etc, Montfair IS IT. My husband and I are laid back artist types and we wanted our wedding to be local (we're from Charlottesville) and focused on the bringing together of our families and unpretentious - and we knew from the beginning we wanted to do our own programming, catering (our families provided home made dishes), music (I created our entire wedding play lists start to finish and my husband brought in his own sound equipment), decorations (handmade garland, thrifted china plate settings, etc), and more importantly we wanted our dogs to be able to join us at the ceremony, and Montfair was amazing about accommodating every aspect of the DIY event. It's rare to find a wedding venue that does not restrict you with vendors, etc, and we truly appreciated how open they were to our vision. The best part about this place was the AMAZING staff!! Katie was a true GEM - she was so kind, patient, and friendly, with every step of the planning process - she answered all of our questions and did so with wonderful grace and humor. The team at Montfair made us feel super supported the entire way. The fact that we never had to worry about the venue significantly cut back on our stress during planning. I could write endlessly about how much I loved this place but the best thing you could do is just set up an appointment and go see the space yourself. When you know, you know, and with Montfair, we just knew.

Montfair Resort Farm is truly magical. Not just the stunning environment (rolling green hills, blue ridge mountains, perfectly picturesque lake!), but also the staff. There are plenty of pictures of the Montfair that speak for itself - which we can loudly and confidently confirm - but there's little physical evidence of how amazing everyone at Montfair is in helping you plan, envision, and recognize your ideal wedding. At the end of the weekend (because yes, you can have an entire wedding weekend at Montfair! not just a day), it was the "Yes" and "Can do" attitude of everyone at Montfair that made planning a joy and the wedding stress-free. When we dreamt of a vintage, mobile caravan to uniquely serve as our bar in two different locations, Montfair rolled up their sleeves and helped us and the vendor find a way to position themselves safely, securely, and in perfect sight for our guests. This was a first-time vendor at Montfair and could have easily been turned away because of size and complexity to move throughout the grounds (literally needed to be backed up in between two trees), but Montfair didn't even think about that option. They were willing to try and make everything work. That collaborative and supporting sentiment is truly unique for Montfair as a wedding venue. And this is just one story! There are tons more in which Montfair worked with us to have a wedding completely our own, not adhering to cookie cutter standards and rules. It's hard to express everything that Montfair did for us into words, but when thinking about our wedding, we wanted a place that truly captured our personalities - nature-loving, intimate, relaxing, rustic, sophisticated, unique and personable. Montfair is that place. We couldn't recommend them enough!

Choosing Montfair was the best decision we made while planning our wedding! The surroundings absolutely blew us away — from the beautiful mountain backdrop of our ceremony, to the magical cocktail hour setting of the lake and woods. The venue provided the perfect combination of a festive but relaxed atmosphere, which helped our guests celebrate without feeling like the events were too staged or constrained. At the cocktail hour, our guests appreciated the variety of activities available, from lawn games, to mingling on the deck, to taking the canoes out on the lake. It was really important to us to take the opportunity of the wedding to spend time with friends and family, so the ability to rent the property + cabins for the whole weekend was truly special. Our wedding party stayed in the cabins, and had everything they needed to just relax and have a good time. Beauchamp House was a great spot for my bridesmaids and me to get ready. Besides giving us extra time with friends and family, renting the venue for the full weekend made it easy to plan events on Friday and Sunday and keep costs down. We had our rehearsal dinner down by the lake, and brought
