Regency at Dominion Valley

If you are looking for an amazingly beautiful venue that will accomplish the wedding of your dreams, look no further than Regency at Dominion Valley. When my fiancé (now wife) walked into the venue and took the tour we knew as soon as we walked through the door that this was the venue we would be married at. Picturesque views, outstanding service, and every attention to detail are some of the many reasons this venue does weddings well. They have several options during the pandemic for your wedding ceremony, reception cocktail hour and dinner. All Covid guidelines are followed and the service is exceptional. Cassidy Barnett is a great Coordinator. She made the process on wedding day so stress free. She is very organized and the wedding day flowed very smoothly. She worked with us to adjust our menu and size of the wedding and always had a smile. A pleasure to work with her. The ceremony was in an amazing spot overlooking the water and the fall tree line. There's a small bridge with a running waterfall that looked spectacular. The reception was excellent. Food and drinks were provided promptly tableside and our signature cocktail the Cosmorita was outstanding. There was plenty of space for our DJ and dance area and guests enjoyed themselves. We did our sparkler send off at the end of the night. It was truly the best day of our lives and this venue did an incredible job under the stresses of Covid. They put your mind at ease with their attention to detail. So if you are looking for venue that will give you an incredible experience look no further.

Our wedding was AMAZING! We worked with Cassidy who took over the coordinator position last minute due to COVID and she went above and beyond for us! She answered all my questions during the entire planning process with so much knowledge. She never made me feel like I was a nuisance or annoying with so many questions and emails. There was really no request that went ignored. Everything was set up perfectly on the day of. She made sure everything ran smoothly without overstepping into the fun part of the night. The service at the reception was great. Food was great! We really just had a wonderful time without any stress or worry. That is all you can really ask for on your wedding day and Regency, especially Cassidy, made sure we had an unforgettable day!

Regency at Dominion Valley went over and beyond my expectations! The entire process was stress free which says a lot with the times we are in this year. The location is beautiful and the staff was amazingly professional. The director, Cassidy, handled all details flawlessly and delivered the wedding of my dreams! I’m beyond thankful and happy I had my wedding here.

I cannot say enough great things about Regency at Dominion Valley! Having a wedding during COVID was extremely stressful but our wedding coordinator, Cassidy, was amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure our day was absolutely PERFECT! The venue is gorgeous, which makes for the best pictures and the food is delicious. So many options and different packages to choose from. In addition, the staff works so hard to make sure you have everything you could want and took such great care of my husband at I during our reception. If you’re looking for a beautiful venue with top notch service, look no further! You will be SO happy having your wedding at Regency! 💕

We had our wedding here on 8/1. All I can say is Cassidy is amazing! Planning a wedding during a pandemic is no easy task but Cassidy was awesome in helping to come up with other solutions, even when I was panicking. Almost everything had to be changed from how it was originally planned and seating was changing daily; Cassidy and her team stayed on top of it! The venue is beautiful whether having everything inside or outside.

Great experience at the Regency at Dominion Valley for my daughter's wedding. They were very flexible on a couple of special-request drink options, and the outdoor wedding area was beautiful. Jennifer was very helpful (especially on the day-of) and made some good vendor recommendations for us. The set-up inside for the reception was perfect, and all the staff was very friendly.

My husband and I are so happy with the decision of having our wedding at The Regency at Dominion Valley. The venue is gorgeous from the inside and outside. We knew it was the perfect venue to choose for our wedding once we attended our first tasting. At our first tasting, Victoria was very attentive, she took notes on what we liked and what we wanted improved, she made sure to communicate with Chef Vincent. Jennifer Villatoro, the Event Coordinator was very sweet and attentive as well. She was great at communicating with us and was very helpful. On the day of the wedding my guest and I were very happy and impressed with the Regency at Dominion Valley staff. They were so attentive with us and our guests. We were very happy with the food, it was delicious and my guests complimented us on how good the food was. Thank you Jennifer, Victoria, Chef Vincent and Regency at Dominion Valley staff for all your hard work and great customer service!! I give this venue 5 stars and definitely would recommend it to other couples.

my husband and I got married here at the end of April and our wedding could not have gone more smoothly thanks to Cassidy and the rest of the staff at Regency dominion valley. Everything was beautiful and not a single detail went unattended to. I'm the type of person who gets stressed easily so I was worried that my wedding day would be overshadowed by the stress of making sure everything went according to plan, but as soon as things got started I quickly realized I had nothing to worry about and I was able to really enjoy my wedding day. The food was great and staff made sure to attend to any guests special dietary needs as well. I would 100% reccomend RDV to anyone looking for a stress free and beautiful wedding day.

We had our Wedding here in March, and I could not have asked for a better experience. All of the staff were wonderful and our Wedding coordinator Cassidy was amazing. She was so helpful, was always there when we needed her. She was calm, organized, sweet, and professional. I had a bunch of questions and was worried about a lot of things, she met with me anytime I asked and always made me feel at ease. Our Wedding day went as planned with no issues. Cassidy seemed to always be there, helping everyone, getting us drinks, checking on us all night, she even helped with my bustle when my maid of honor was not able to figure it out. When taking our photos, we had a waitress come outside to us to bring us some of our appetizers. I was shocked, normally as the bride and groom, you miss cocktail hour and being able to try some of your food. That was so thoughtful of them, and much appreciated. I would definitely recommend the Regency at Dominion Valley for your Wedding. The staff, service, food, and drinks were great, and the venue is beautiful.

The Regency Country Club was a beautiful setting for our daughters wedding ceremony and reception. The staff was amazing and took care of every detail and especially addressed of the details on the day of the even, freeing my wife and I up to enjoy the day. We had plate service and partial (beer/wine/champ) bar which our guests thoroughly enjoyed. Cost was roughly $100 per person, which included tax and gratuity. There was reduced cost for those under 21, since they don't access the bar. The weather was nice so we had the ceremony on the veranda which fit our 56 guests perfectly. Definitely take a look at Regency when booking a wedding in northern Virginia.

While I was a brother of a bride at this venue, I will be writing this review as an event planning professional with years of experience in the 5-Star luxury market. It is my hope that my words will not only inform future clients, but bring to light major staff challenges and ultimately improve the overall operation at The Regency at Dominion Valley. First and foremost, the venue itself is wonderful. The grounds are well-kept and the building seems to have been recently updated. The hard product is great. Sadly, the rest of the experience was not as positive and truly surprising for a space that surely serves several weddings a year. As silly and outdated as it sounds, “The client is always right” and “Never say no” are phrases taught in hospitality school for a reason. We, as hospitality professionals, serve with the goal of accommodating our guests and making sure that every aspect of their stay/event is thoughtfully planned. This simply was not the case and lead to unnecessary stress not only leading up to the wedding, but on the wedding day as well. Moving on to the finer details and event logistics, I have never seen a family working an event as much as mine did. I was truthfully appalled that the mother of the bride had to become so involved, just to ensure that the program stayed on track. On several occassions, the MOB had to instruct staff herself to do the simple tasks that were arranged months in advance (ex: bringing out unity candles, moving flowers inside for reception, ushering guests to their seats, serving entrees...etc.) Instead of enjoying the pre-ceremony time with her daughter, she spent most of the time organizing these small details, missing out on the special moments. One challenge that stuck out to me personally was when the officiant was looking for the unity candle lighter. The MOB went to the planner asking if she had one to which she replied “You were supposed to bring it.” Seeing as she did not bring one, the MOB then asked if the venue had one and the response was “That’s a liability and we can’t provide one.” That response was unacceptable, especially 30 minutes before the ceremony. It doesn’t matter if the client was in the wrong, you provide alternatives and reassurance that everything will work out perfectly. In my opinion, this particular planner has no business being in front of guests. It got to the point where the MOB was physically upset and in tears before the director stepped in and sent her home. I appreciated the director’s efforts and assistance from another planner, however it was a bit too late given the prior challenges. It truly all comes down to care and I heartily believe this property lacks it. It doesn’t matter the question, task, want, need — your guest deserves an individual who will work with them and do whatever it takes to make their dream come true.

I recently married my favorite person ever on October 1 st at Regency at Dominion Valley and it was truly stunning in every way but before I say any more I should mention that we experienced a few mishaps during our planning process with a *Different venue*. In a nutshell with the first venue- we lost a lot of our budget due to a breach in the original contract that we signed on their behalf and shortly after they filed for bankruptcy. To say that the situation was an emotional one is quite an understatement.. after all, we were back to square one with half of the time to find another venue. Then I met Whitney and I knew that what we thought was a terrible situation really was the biggest blessing in disguise. Immediately she became a great friend, mentor and made the entire process completely hassle free! She was so happy to help with the millions of changes and questions we had regarding our contract and always showed a willingness to help in any situation. If you want a beautiful venue, wonderful staff and a flawless day- book your wedding at Regency at Dominion Valley. Thank you so much Whitney!

This venue was so elegant and classy! We are so impressed with the service, the food, the look, the feel, and the overall experience. The food was so delicious! And the staff members were are so wonderful. Especially our consultant. She made things so simple and worry-free. Definitely recommend The Regency!!

We recently got married at The Regency at Dominion Valley and it was the prettiest place I have ever seen. The staff was incredible, friendly and professional. We working with Laura P. and her and her staff went above and beyond to ensure we had the wedding of our dreams. She was so responsive answering questions for us, letting us bring all our little decorations the night before, helping us do the rehearsal dinner there which was phenomenal with the Shrimp & Grits, and setting up all of the details and decorations for us the day of the wedding. Also, they even helped us break down and kept all our stuff there until the next day to come pick up. They just remodeled the reception hall and it is stunning, I felt so lucky to get to have my wedding here. Everyone was commenting on how gorgeous the outside ceremony was, the grounds were, the reception and cocktail hour was I wish I could do it all over here again! I absolutely loved working with The Regency and would recommend it to anyone getting married. Thank you so much Laura and Regency staff for exceeding our expectations and making it the best day of my husband and my life!

My husband and I got married on August 2, 2014 at the Regency at Dominion Valley. We had both our ceremony and reception at the venue and we could not be happier with the day that we had. Laura was extremely organized and helpful throughout the entire process and we could not thank her enough for her help in making a perfect day. The venue is well taken care of, the landscaping is beautiful and the inside was just recently renovated. We have had guests compliment how good the food tasted as well. Not one thing went wrong the day of, we had the day we always imagined and I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking. The fountains make beautiful photos and there are 2 outdoor location options for your ceremony.

We toured many, many options as our possible venue and everything was amazing, but nothing felt right. The second we got our tour at The Regency at Dominion Valley, we knew it. We even told the woman giving us the tour since we were so confident. My favorite things about the Regency: 1. The event planner- Laura Petrosino. Jennifer Bodnar was great. But she left and is no longer the event planner. Laura Petrosino has recently replaced her and she is equally amazing. She was very patient with us and helpful. She was calm, which kept me calm! You will be so happy and relieved to be working with her. 2. Rehearsal Dinner- We were able to host our rehearsal dinner in the Middleburg Grill area's Potomac Room after our rehearsal, which was super convenient and we were not charged any rental fees for the room. 3. The food. Oh my god, the food!!!! It is so delicious!! I didn't have a tasting until about 2 months before our wedding, but that doesn't matter because the food is DELICIOUS. We had ribeye, chicken and salmon for our rehearsal dinner (all great), everyone raved about the appetizers at cocktail hour and then we had a pasta station and prime rib (along with some veggies and mashed potatoes) for our reception. Everything was fabulous. Not only that, we also ordered sandwiches for the bridal party from the Grill because we needed lunch and you would NOT believe the spread they brought. They basically brought us a sandwich buffet and I am not lying when I say it was the best sandwich of my life. 4. Care- They care! When we got married, it was raining and the staff set up outside and inside just to keep both options open. They went above and beyond to get tables set up during cocktail hour indoors after our indoor ceremony. Everyone working there was so nice. 5. All-in-one- You don't have to go renting chairs, flatware and linens... The Regency provides votives, easels, chairs, tables, linens, silverware, glassware and they cater the event.

My husband and I really enjoyed our reception at the Regency! Our families and friends are still talking about it. Living far away, they were very flexible with food tastings and site visits the few weekends we were in town before our wedding. Jennifer Bodnar was very professional and wonderful to work with! The food was delicious and the table settings were beautiful. The Regency is a gorgeous setting for a wedding or any other special event and is stunning both inside and out. I highly recommend it as your wedding venue :) Wedding: 05/27/2013

When my fiance and I went to visit the Regency for the first time: instantly we both fell in love with the venue. It was exactly what we were looking for! Also Jennifer is SUPER friendly and was there every step of the way to help us!

We had a great experience with Regency at Dominion Valley. Only our reception was held there. The food was amazing (we still get comments from guests about how great it was). It's a big space for a good price. Jennifer was great to work with and had many ideas about how to spruce up the ballroom. The grounds are beautiful; many great picture locations! Only negative was that the air conditioning did not fully keep up with the heat of the day once all the guests were in the ballroom. If you're getting married during the summer, you may want to check to see if they have fixed their AC at all.

I very much loved having my wedding ceremony and reception at this venue. The venue is absolutely gorgeous and is very large for bigger weddings. The scenery surrounding the venue gave a perfect back drop for pictures. The staff was wonderful and the food was very yummy.

After looking at about 8 other venues, we instantly fell in love with this place. It is so beautiful. I will admit that I was a bit difficult to deal with at time, but Jennifer Bodner did everything she could to make it the best experience possible and have all of my requests met. The only complaint I have about the venue is the way they change for the open bar. It is not one set price, it is per person per hour.

I recently got married at the Regency. We had an outdoor ceremony in the private outdoor amphitheater (highly recommend!!). The ceremony was gorgeous!! We also had our reception there in the ballroom. I have nothing but wonderful things to say. The venue is amazing. I was so blown away. The manager, Jennifer Bodnar was fantastic to work with!! She made sure our day was perfect. She is so passionate about what she does. I had SO many compliments on the venue and the food was awesome!! I wish I could do it all over again because it all turned out perfect!

I can't even begin to describe how amazing the Regency staff truly were during my wedding. The night before my wedding they lost power (which had never happened before) and within hours they were able to find a new venue for my reception. They took all of their staff and everything I had ordered over to the new reception venue and made sure that we had a wonderful reception. It was truly a miracle and all thanks to them. I can't say thank you enough to explain my heartfelt thanks to this amazing staff and venue.

My wedding day was perfect until I found out about a few things. The Regency was a perfect place for my wedding. I love Jennifer, the event coordinator, too! However, I had 2 issues: When you sign your contract, you sign to pay a 20% service charge-which was fine and understandable-the charge was over $3,000. The problem is, at the wedding the bartenders lowered the classiness of the event by setting up giant tip jars which by the end of the night were full after having already paid the service charge. I wanted my family and friends to come without having to pay a cent for anything (since it had all been taken care of). My mom and I found that inappropriate. I had some complaints from the Cocktail hour as they were unable to get food out to all of my hungry guests. I know a wedding is never pulled off as perfect but these are things that hadn't thought to worry about and without, would have been perfect. If I could do this day over again I would still do it at The Regency, but I would definitely have made sure none of this had taken place- Things a bride should not worry about.

Beautiful, gorgeous venue. They supply so many things which is the different from a lot of other places. Lots of little things secret things to pay for but completely worth it in the end.

Absolutely beautiful scenery for our ceremony, overlooking a gorgeous golf community! The wedding coordinator, Jennifer, was AMAZING both before the wedding and on our big day. She is available and flexible for planning meetings and is full of creative ideas.

We had our wedding reception at the Regency at Dominion Valley. They did awesome job decorating! I had a ton of instructions for exactly how I wanted the tables/centerpieces to look and they executed it ;) Also, the food and service was excellent! I got tons of compliments. The only reason I am giving them 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the AV system. We rented the system for a slide show presentation/music (we did not have a DJ). Unfortunately, I was not advised as to where I should place tables around the screen. I had no idea it would come down so low from the ceiling. Consequently, there was a table right underneath it and one of my guests got hit in the head (twice :o( ) when the screen came down. Thank goodness he wasn't hurt and he was a good sport! But I think that's a big enough issue that I should have been informed ahead of time and they should not have placed a table right under the screen. Also, whoever was there to help work the AV system was not familiar with working an ipod. It was my mistake to not have a trial run, but the music and slide show stopped and started multiple times and the screen went up and down at least 2x. :/ We had the correct cables and the slide show was run off of our laptop, however, it just did not work out properly and the individual from the Regency didn't know how to fix it either. Despite the music/video issue, it was a beautiful reception and we really enjoyed ourselves. They really worked to help us stay in our budget; so for the price we got way more than expected.
