Veritas Vineyard

The most wedding venue we could have imagined! Veritas was such a beautiful and secluded vineyard and wedding venue. Their entire team was fabulous to work with, as well as their recommended vendors. There are options for both indoors and outdoors ceremonies and receptions, all with a wonderful view of the vineyard and mountains above. In addition to it's looks, the food was amazing, everyone was very welcoming and accommodating of us as a couple, and we truly couldn't have had a better wedding here. Both suites for bride and groom were gorgeous and comfortable and the available furnishings such as ceremony setup, reception tables, etc. were great. The best part about having a working vineyard as our wedding site is that we can come back time and time again to reminisce and celebrate our wedding day.

Veritas was wonderful. It was the ideal location for our reception. The views were gorgeous, the staff was attentive and fun, and the the food and wine were excellent. All our guests were raving about how it was one of the best wedding venues they had ever been to. Veritas made the whole planning process very easy. They also responded to and executed on all of our requests, even small details.

We held our wedding here in May 2022. This is an amazing venue for anyone looking for the perfect mix of breathtaking mountain views and a classy space for entertaining. Saddleback Hall is a grand ballroom with beautiful drapery and soft lighting, making it a romantic setting for a reception. The event staff here is awesome and went out of their way to ensure our wedding was everything we’d dreamed. And everyone raved about the food! Veritas is just as lovely as many of the more expensive vineyard venues in the region.

Veritas is a dream venue. The views and scenery speak for themselves, but the service, food, and reception space are all equally incredibly. I knew as soon as I got engaged Veritas was the place for me. Amanda was so wonderful to work with, and picked up right where we left off with the previous coordinator. She was attentive, thoughtful, and helped keep all of our details organized. She answered all of my emails and dozens of questions so quickly and I knew we were in good hands! We received tons of rave reviews from our guests on everything at Veritas, start to finish! Cannot recommend enough

Just held a wedding celebration at Veritas, following 2+ years of delays. The venue is absolutely beautiful, the team is wonderful, and I couldn't have imagined a better locale for our special day. Highest recommendation!

AMAZING! We cannot say enough wonderful things about Veritas as a wedding venue and Emily Clemenson as a day of coordinator!! Gorgeous location, delicious food, fantastic wine. Emily was SO organized, helpful, and quickly responsive through email throughout our entire wedding planning experience. She spent time going through every tiny detail, creating a timeline, emailing vendors, giving great suggestions, and keeping our day running smoothly the whole time. As a lover of organization and planning myself, it was such a relief to be able to fully trust Emily and just enjoy our wedding day. I had not a doubt in my mind that she had everything under control and on track all day. We appreciate everything you've done this past year and a half planning our wedding day, Emily!! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!

We cannot say enough amazing things about this venue! My husband and I got married here on October 26, 2019, and from start to finish, we had an absolutely amazing experience with Veritas and every person we met there. As an out of town bride, having everything at one place was a game changer, and I can honestly say that the whole experience was a dream. Emily was the "Day-of-Coordinator" but that title does not even begin to do her justice. Emily helped prepare for the day with all the right questions and met with me multiple times during the planning phase to ensure that everything would be perfect. On the day of the wedding, she conducted herself with poise and professionalism while maintaining an upbeat attitude! Thank you so much for everything you did, Emily! Guests are still talking about how beautiful the venue was and how it was the most perfect backdrop for a wedding. If you are on the fence about this place, do yourself a favor and just go ahead and book it! We could not recommend it more. My husband and I cannot wait to continue to visit Veritas for many years to come :)

My hubby and I got married at the BEAUTIFUL Veritas this past May and to summarize - the day was AN. ABSOLUTE. DREAM. COME. TRUE. It was one of the first Virginia wineries we went to years ago. We decided to revisit while hunting for a wedding venue and are so relieved we did. Besides the gorgeous landscape, we liked the idea of a wedding package that included tables, chairs, basic linens, wine barrels, and other little things we would've had to search for on our own. Emily and Jessie were amazing from start to finish. They kept notes of what we liked/disliked throughout the planning process. Emily was always just a quick email away - I really don't think I had to wait longer than 24 hours before we had a response. All of our guests were so impressed at how smoothly everything was organized. They were willing to incorporate our food requests for an Asian-influenced menu which meant so much to my family. Not only were the food and wine delicious but no one was kept waiting for their meal. We have loved coming back to visit and running into Emily. She treats us like a part of the Veritas family. We are so incredibly thankful for such an amazing (and stressless) experience at Veritas for our wedding day! Jen & Sean

Hands down the best decision we made was to book with Veritas. They made the planning process incredibly easy and streamlined and their event coordinator, Emily, was such a huge saving grace for me as our day of coordinator. Everything from start to finish went exactly according to plan and we couldn’t have been any more pleased with the service we received from the staff at Veritas! The ceremony and reception sites are absolutely breathtaking and was a stunning backdrop for all of our pictures! The food and wine is fantastic and we had so many guests compliment us on how good everything was! Veritas provides all of the catering and alcohol as well as tables, chairs, linings, glassware, etc. which made our planning incredibly easy since everything was already included! Our wedding day was perfect in every way and I cannot thank Veritas enough for giving us the wedding of our dreams!

YES! I hope everyone has the same wonderful experience I had with Veritas. From their staff to the venue, everything was so much better that I could have hoped for. Their event staff will work closely with you to make your wedding dreams come true. And the simplistic elegance of the whole property matched my style perfectly. I'm still hearing about how beautiful our venue was, and all credit goes to Veritas. The catering is out of this world good - like really good! Definitely not your average, just so-so wedding food. No, it was AMAZING! Our accommodates for the day were picture perfect, and I could not be happier. Taylor (event manager) is fantastic - she really delivered on all accounts! We loved our wedding day for many reasons, but Veritas is certainly one of the top reasons! I would recommend everyone get married there!

From start to finish, we had an amazing experience! Everyone there was professional and very, very nice! The only thing stressful thing came when we went to do our rehearsal- they were setting up for another wedding, which we had to rehearse around. However, they were there for the whole rehearsal and walked us through everything. The food was great, the wine was (as usual) amazing, and they were punctual and organized!

Everything was absolutely perfect. We fell in love with Veritas years ago and knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. Jami was our coordinator and she was so responsive with all our emails and so lovely to work with. We couldn't have asked for a better time at our wedding. And despite the crazy wind and rain that day, nothing can take away from the beauty of their property.

It was perfect. Elise was so helpful and made sure everything went exactly as planned. We could not have found a better venue for our ceremony and reception. People could not stop talking about it!

Grace and Veritas Vineyards made our wedding day absolutely perfect! I've been a part of quite a few weddings now, but I can honestly say this was by far the most well orchestrated, decorated and managed one I've been a part of. My parents were elated with Grace and all the staff at Veritas, and many of my guests commented on how smoothly and beautifully everything ran, including the incredible service! From communication with Grace from over a year ago, until now, I have absolutely no negative things to say. We also got so many compliments on the food! (#filetonfleek was trending, seriously). I am truly honored to be a Veritas bride :)

My husband and I had our perfect winter wedding here on 12-30-16. The Veritas family (they're more than just employees) consistently surpassed all of my expectations and impressed me at every turn. This is a group of talented and motivated individuals working together to realize one vision of excellence. Well, I didn't realize how lucky I was at first. The reasons I chose Veritas were their delicious wine, two large indoor spaces, and in-house catering. Basically, it fulfilled all of my requirements for a venue plus I fell in love with the romantic ballroom. The reasons I was thankful (over and over) that I chose Veritas are too numerous to count, but all of those reasons spring from one thing: the consistently high quality of their staff. Specifically, our event manager Grace was very fun and easy to work with: friendly, competent, attentive to detail, and just as eager to throw a great party as I was. Her vendor suggestions were all perfect, which did wonders for my stress levels. She even worked the morning before my event even though she was sick just so that her colleague who was taking over for her, Elise, could get all the little details right. Elise also went above and beyond. Not only did she take over for Grace, she dealt with my cake being late like a champion. Her demeanor was such that I never felt worried and she made sure the cake was on time for serving the guests. My overall impression of Veritas is that they are committed to taking care of their customers. Their laid back attitude paired with extreme attention to comfort and detail showcase their confidence and passion for their work, and it shines through in their finished products. I felt like my wedding was magical and a perfect expression of my (sometimes vague) ideas and feelings. All of my guests said that it was one of the nicest, tastiest, and most fun weddings they had ever been to.

Veritas was a pleasure to work with and I am so happy we chose them as our venue for both the ceremony and reception! They were very accomodating leading up to the wedding, meeting with us multiple times and answering tons of questions over email - always with the best attitude! Jill, the event coordinator is especially great - she made sure everything ran smoothly and went according to plan on the big day, even thought it POURED and we moved our ceremony to the Tasting Room. One of the reasons we originally picked Veritas was because of the amazing tasting room as a back up plan for rain (as my mother insisted we have). when we realized it was most likely going to rain on our wedding day, I was honestly pretty bummed...we were getting married at a vineyard with views of the Blue Ridge Mountains! However, the ceremony actually felt very intimate even with 160 guests, (everyone could actually hear our vows) and I am actually happy that it rained and we ended up inside! I can't say it enough - great venue and great people!!

The hostess was extremely rude to our party when I inquired about private tastings. She said that they did not do them. When we arrived we had to wait in a long line (20 minutes) to do a tasting. When we made it to the front of the line the hostess offered for us to do a private tasting! The gentleman who did the tastings for us was wonderful. He knew a lot about the wines. He even let us try a few not on the menu based on the comments we made about the different wines. While we were tasting a wedding party came in. I felt sorry for the bride, because there were so many strangers doing wine tastings during her reception. Overall, I was not a fan of the wines, they did not have many full body reds. I was mainly upset by the service we had from the hostess. Maybe she was just having a bad day?

I can not say enough good things about working with and having my wedding at Veritas Vineyard. The staff was amazingly accommodating and the venue is gorgeous. I was planning this wedding from the west coast so I was specifically looking for a venue that had a lot of options built in like being able to have both the ceremony and reception at the location, including table & chairs, as well as catering and this venue definitely covered that and so much more. The wedding planning staff is quick to respond and answer any questions. They are also very flexible to work with your idea of what you want for your dream wedding with decor and the little details. I would absolutely recommend Veritas Vineyard to anyone and everyone and highly encourage you to take a visit. My wedding was more amazing than I ever thought it could be and its because of the venue and staff of Veritas!

Yesterday as we celebrated our 1st anniversary, we visited what we consider our special place, Veritas Vineyards. A year later, we have no regrets with selecting Veritas as our wedding venue. They went above and beyond on everything and helped make our wedding day perfect! Their breathtaking beauty both inside and outside is obvious, and staff's professionalism matches. Jill was always welcoming and accommodating, and just a pleasure to work with. She was extremely fast and thorough when answering all of my emails. Chef Jonathan was top notched, and my father still talks about the food quality and presentation. It is clear that Veritas knows what they are doing! I highly recommend them for your wedding venue... worth every penny!

I always wanted to have my wedding at Veritas Vineyard due to the great reception areas and views, but having my wedding at the Vineyard was so much better than I expected! It was amazing to work with Veritas throughout the process and had the perfect wedding day at Veritas.

My fiance and I always knew we wanted to get married near Charlottesville, and I'm so glad we settled on Veritas for the location. We toured other popular venues in the area but nothing else compared to the quality and clarity (which is VERY important when you're spending lots of $) of service that we received at Veritas. Frances, our event coordinator, was a pleasure to work with - during the planning stages, she was quick to answer all my questions and, on the big day, she was there to make sure everything ran smoothly. I received countless compliments on the food (Veritas has an amazing Executive Chef), and the professionalism of the wait staff. Even the rainy weather we got that day was forgotten, as Veritas flawlessly executed "plan b" with the ceremony site on the veranda. Needless to say, I cannot recommend this location or its professional staff highly enough!

I was lucky enough to have my wedding at The Farmhouse at Veritas in late July. Jill and Frances, the event managers at Veritas, were amazing to work with! They were responsive from the moment we booked and made the planning process a breeze. I felt like no question about detail was too small. They made me feel like I was the only bride they were working with. The food was seasonal and delicious, and the wine pairings were perfect. The waitstaff were also kind and professional. I wish I could do it all over again. I highly recommend Veritas for all things wedding!

Fabulous. Its difficult to put into words how much guidance and assistance they provided in conducting our wedding. Both event planners, Frances and Jill were very responsive and prompt with our questions, we were already huge fans of the venue even before the day of our wedding arrived. Even with a hiccup on the day of, like RAIN, they had everything under control. Even moving the ceremony indoors minutes before the wedding ceremony was to start. But we had the utmost confidence in both Frances and Jill. Our ceremony was amazing and reception was perfect. At the end of the night, it didn't even feel like we had made any changes. It felt like everything happened just the way it was supposed to, and that is testament to how calm, cool and professional you both are. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts for a wonderful night and a wonderful wedding.

We had both our ceremony and reception at Veritas, and everything was absolutely wonderful. Especially leading up to the wedding, the event planners were excellent in answering all of our questions and making us feel completely at ease (even the mother-of-the-bride felt at ease). On our wedding day, you could not ask for a more beautiful venue. And on top of that, the food, service, and especially the wine was amazing. Everyone raved about how awesome the food/wine was. We all had a blast, even despite the rain. Definitely a winner!

Our wedding could not have been more perfect. Most things in life just don't fit the word "Pefect," though I have to say I can't think of another word for our wedding day. Veritas will always hold a special place in our heart as it was the location of one of our first dates. The moment I walked into the ballroom, the room took my breath away. I enjoyed working with the staff especially the event coordinator Jill Shirey as she worked countless hours to make this day AMAZING!! My husband and I will be talking about this the rest of our lives. Worth every penny!

The service is great. Jill and her staff are fantastic!!!!!! They made my wedding go off very smoothly.

Briefly, we had the good fortune to have our wedding ceremony and reception at Veritas Vineyard and have absolutely no regrets regarding our choice. Jill was a pleasure to work with and made the planning painless and simple, even from over 700 miles away. The venue itself is beautiful and the attentive service provided by the entire staff (i.e., chef, bartenders, wait staff) was excellent. At the end of the night the feedback from all of our guests was exemplary. We are still kicking ourselves that it was truly our wedding – we couldn’t have imagined anything more perfect. Pros: 1) the venue, including the grounds and reception hall, is beautiful, 2) skilled event coordinators (Jill was extremely quick to respond to (many) questions via email. I cannot overstate how wonderful she was to work with both before and during the event – helping to remove a stain from a dress, checking on the weather forecast, providing suggestions/advice, etc.) 3) attention to detail (there is no need to hire an additional coordinator - Jill helped to create a timeline and provided direction for the rehearsal and during the event, Jill and wait captain kept us on schedule during event, and staff assisted with setup of items and ensured everything needed was provided), 4) food and wine are delicious, 5) added touches (had appetizers, sparkling wine and/or beer ready and waiting for wedding party arrival, snacks for bride and groom after ceremony, sent us away with a vendor’s meal), 6) flexibility (forecast was calling for a rain shower at the exact start of our ceremony so staff set up at two locations – outside and under tent on deck), 7) upfront pricing (while Veritas was one of the pricier venues we selected from, it is very clear from the time you sign the contract what you are paying and there were no surprises after the event). Cons: None.

You could not ask for a better venue. The food was amazing, the service was perfect, and the venue is absolutely stunning.

Amazing view, amazing service, amazing wedding

We looked at 30-40 different wineries before deciding to book Veritas, and we sure are glad that we did! This venue made our wedding as awesome as it was! They have outstanding staff (both on the catering and planning ends), a view to die for, delicious food, and a beautiful event room. They usually hold large weddings there (the ballroom can fit up to 250), but we had a small intimate affair (only 42 people), and they allowed us to use their tasting room instead (seats up to 50-60). This may not sound like much, but they had to move out many large pieces of heavy, club, leather chairs and couches. At our tasting we met with the chef, and he took our thoughts into consideration when he put together the final dishes. His food is not your average wedding fare; in fact, one of our guests said, "This is the best restaurant ever!" They also added a special "tasting bar" during the cocktail hour, so that our guests could sample more than just the 4 wines we had purchased. The price tag may be high, but it is definitely worth it! A word to the wise: this venue fills up its dates quickly! Price break-down:$4,000 for facilities on a Friday about $8,000 for food, alcohol, and service

Though the $5000 fee to rent the ballroom for Saturday evening is steep, the ambience made it well worth it. The food was delicious, and many guests complimented the service. You cannot beat getting married against the backdrop of the blue ridge mountains, a cocktail hour in the tasting room, followed by a sit down dinner in the ballroom. Each location is beautiful and unique.

My fiance and I were going around wine tasting in the Charlottesville area before our friends' wedding in 2009. When we got to Veritas, we were more excited about trying the wines and enjoying the gorgeous view of the vineyards and the mountains. It was while we were trying some of their excellent whites that we were told that they, indeed, host weddings there. At the time we had started to look at places and were frustrated with capacity restrictions or costs for venues we agreed would fit our (my) vision (I wanted a place with a picturesque backdrop, could fit 200+ people and it all cost under $25000). So naturally, we were curious about the ballroom and other services they offered. The person we talked to at the tasting bar encouraged us to go to the ballroom when we finished. When we walked in, we were in awe of how the ballroom looked. Our friends who were their with us, and recently were married, were also in awe and remarked, "If we weren't already married, we would choose this spot as well." My fiance and I contacted them and read over the FAQ documents they provided about costs and other services, and were really comfortable with the price point. The event coordinators, Chloe and Rebecca, were really helpful and easy to work with the entire time. They answered every question that we could think of and made us feel so welcomed every time we visited. The Veritas has great amenities for the bridal party! There's a place for both the bride and groom to get read with their respective parties that are offset from the everyday business affairs. We met with the chef and he was very good in accommodating the changes in the menu we requested. And all of the wait staff were wonderful to us and our guest. I couldn't have been happier with the way the day went. Every guest gave glowing remarks about the scenery and the food. This place is absolutely spectacular!

Excellent wine, beautiful location, and the wedding planner on site (Chloe) is just amazing to work with. The rain venues are great because the inside of the winery is just beautiful. The service was fantastic. The food was good, too!

If I could get married everyday, I would do it at Veritas! The staff was incredible and really made our day spectacular! Chloe the event planner is excellent and they have full food service capability with outstanding menu choices. Not to mention the wine and and sparkling wine is to die for! Thanks Veritas!
