Virginia, as the saying goes, is for lovers. From the Blue Ridge Mountains to the shores of the Chesapeake Bay, there are plenty of perfect spots for a romantic getaway. For couples planning an elopement, a Virginia bed and breakfast is a perfect spot to enjoy a simple wedding and a special honeymoon.
If you'd love a traditional setting without all the pomp of a big wedding, the Holladay House in historic Orange, Virginia, might be just what you need. The beautifully restored inn is filled with 19th-century charm. The innkeepers, no doubt romantics themselves, have been hosts to many weddings and elopement ceremonies. In fact, the innkeepers were married at a small Virginia bed and breakfast, and the experience was so special that it kindled their interest in running an inn. They now offer all-inclusive elopement packages. Guests only need to bring their wedding clothes and a marriage license.
The Holladay House elopement package includes everything a bride and groom could wish for, beginning with a night's stay in one of the inn's honeymoon suites. These spacious bedchambers include a fireplace and private bath with a whirlpool tub. The happy couple receives a bottle of wine as well as fruit and cheese tray when they arrive at the inn. The innkeepers provide all the essentials, from the bride's bouquet to a Virginia-licensed officiant. After the ceremony, you'll enjoy a wedding cake for two and a bottle of champagne. Dinner for two at a local restaurant also is included.
This Virginia bed and breakfast is a perfect spot for your honeymoon, as well. The home is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The village of Orange offers plenty of historic sites, as well as boutiques, antique stores and art galleries. A short drive will take you to award-winning wineries, Civil War sites and museums. Take a drive and enjoy Blue Ridge Mountain views or simply relax and cuddle up in front of the fireplace in your honeymoon suite.
Guests will enjoy the historic charm, which includes many architectural features original to the house, as well as plenty of amenities. Each of the romantic guest rooms has its own private bath; some have a fireplace, double whirlpool tub or perhaps a private patio. The innkeepers will pamper you with home-baked cookies and treats, as well as a two-course gourmet breakfast.
So, get your marriage off to a superb start by planning an elopement at this Virginia bed and breakfast. The innkeepers will do all the planning, so that you can enjoy all the romance.
