Mt. Bernard Farm in Goochland County is a 36 Minute drive from St Benedict Catholic Church. Elizabeth and Jhimy Ortuno have graciously invited us to celebrate in their home following the ceremony.
When you enter past the stone columns, please follow the signs for event parking. Please enjoy beverages and light refreshments during the cocktail hour inside the house. Everyone will gather in the front hall to cheer and welcome the wedding party and parents, first dance and a toast to the newly weds.
Dinner will served buffet style in the tent behind the house. A restroom trailer will be near the tent area.
Please note that this is a private home and our celebration will be on the first floor only of the house. The pool and pool house are are off limits.
Mt. Bernard is a working farm raising cattle, sheep, chickens, bees, and horses. You are welcome to walk around and visit the animals but do not feed any of them. If you see an electric fence, it is energized. The big fluffy, white dog, Ira, is a guardian livestock dog and she is protective of her sheep. She is friendly but she is on duty and does not need any pets or ear scritches. Please know that she gets daily love and affection from Maggie!
