Finding this winery was a pleasant surprise. A little ways off of route 50 from Fairfax Corner, it…read moreis not too hard to get to but a lovely respite from the DMV. I love that there are several options for seating. Past reviews led me to believe it is all open air, but there is a small seating space inside the tasting barn where the bar is. Granted, it still has open airflow, but can be mostly closed in during inclement weather. There are also two lawns with a hard separation--one for families and an adults-only space, which seems like a good way to be inclusive of both families and adults who are tired of children running wild at wineries/breweries. The wines were delicious, and of the ones we sampled the Cab Franc was excellent. I did like the Viognier, but it was a little too mild-flavored for me.

From the beginning of the process, we loved how flexible the Bellevue was with us with planning! Shab did a fabulous job explaining the venue to us, Fara laid out all of our decor options, Viviane helped us with the audio/visual, and Mashal helped us with with the food and billing. We felt completely guided throughout the entire process and the team was very responsive to our needs. Fara (Ala Mode) impressed us with her ability to make our fairytale vision come to life! Fara met with us several times to review our details and preferences. She really gets to know her clients! Fara's knowledge of decor, flowers, and arrangements is truly a gift! She executed exactly what we wanted. My mom and I loved Fara so much! Viviane and her team at Bright Consultation set the tone for our reception. Months before our big day, they had us come in and selected everything from the hues of the lights to the style of the name projection on the wall. Bright Consultation made our DJ's life easier by having an awesome sound system that he could just plug into. Bright Consultation also made our grand entrance perfect with the cold spark boxes and the amazing spot lights! The lighting was perfect! Mashal was responsive with any and all billing questions we had and everything was so transparent. The food was good and my family enjoyed the bar!

Owned by a South Asian it does cater to a lot of South Asian weddings but also other denominations. Pretty and large open space. However you have to park at the bottom of the Hill and walk up. If its cold or in heels, good luck. There is a small shuttle that will take 4-7 folks up but be careful getting in and out. If its early April and its cold, wear warm clothes like a overcoat. The bar and place for food buffets is outside...great for warm weather but not cold. The outdoor toilets flood so be aware. Nice large tent for guests but in cold weather don't depend on warmth from the heater as the door outside stays open a lot. Seems like a nice place to hold weddings with space but caveats beware.

Not only was the venue a beautiful setting for our important event, but the staff truly treat their couples like family. I have never seen a team go to greater lengths to ensure that their couples have the perfect wedding, from providing us with vendor recommendations within our budget to answering panicked midnight texts to settling issues with vendors on our behalf, we literally could not have done it without them. The day-of event went incredibly smoothly because of how prepared they helped us to be. If you're getting married, you'd be making a massive mistake not to consider Rixey Manor. We're so proud that they are forever a part of our story!

The venue was beautiful and all the staff were incredible, making sure our wedding went as smoothly as possible. Isadora and Grace were both exceptionally professional, kind, and courteous to us, our vendors, and our guests. They accommodated all of our requests throughout the planning process and during our wedding. We were especially amazed at how much backend work Rixey handled for us including setup, teardown, and wrangling of vendors. We didn't need to worry about any of that and everything came out perfectly. They also made absolutely sure that we were comfortable throughout. They kept us fed, helped the bride get ready, and regularly checked on us to make sure we were okay. On a more personal note, Isadora and Grace also went above and beyond with all of our floral needs, helping us put together our arbor flowers and a new beautiful bouquet for the bride with some of our spare flowers. At Rixey, you're in the hands of real pros who want your wedding to be perfect and are ready to go the extra mile to make sure that happens. Highly recommended. :)

My wife and I were keen on finding a venue that had a vibrant nature and outdoorsy vibe. We were…read moreimmediately charmed when we first saw East Lynn Farms, and met the team behind its operation. The owners Georgia and Peter were incredibly supportive, and gave sage advice throughout our planning process. In addition, Alyson, who handles the emails for the farm, was always incredibly quick to provide responses to our questions, and was a pleasure to communicate with. We visited the venue a couple times throughout 2019 between January and our wedding this past September. It takes some imagination to picture how the grounds would look like on your wedding day, because it transforms so much with each season. However, we thought it was gorgeous and made for a terrific backdrop each time we visited regardless of the season. The farm is between an hour to an hour and a half outside of D.C. so it is a fantastic option for getting a rustic venue space that is still accessible for our friends living in the city and the families flying in to Reagan or Dulles. There is a lot of flexibility for events at East Lynn Farms, which may be a stressor for couples depending on their appetite for DIY versus a turnkey wedding option. The farm includes some decorations and a list of recommended vendors, but we were not restricted to the list as long as the vendors we chose had the appropriate license and insurance. The farm allows you to provide our own beverages for events, and we were able to save quite a bit by sourcing our drinks from Costco rather than ordering through the caterer. My wife and I were initially worried about how hot might be at the tail end of Summer, and we contemplated renting fans or A/C units for the wedding. Thankfully, Georgia advised us that the surrounding mountains provided the area with a cooler ambient temperature and a reasonable breeze that negated the need for that hefty expense. On our wedding day, the weather was perfect! Even at the peak of the afternoon it never got so hot that it was uncomfortable to wear a suit jacket, and at the end of the night it wasn't so cold that one needed a jacket. There's no limit of the amount of praise and recommendations my wife and I would give to East Lynn! We honestly couldn't have imagined a better place to have our wedding!

It was an absolute hit--our guests couldn't stop dancing and loved playing all the games, from the kids to the older adults! Even the dealers mentioned how much fun they had with our group. The team was so easy to work with, everything ran smoothly, and there weren't any hiccups at all. I'd highly recommend them to make any event more fun and unforgettable!

Everyone loved being at the tables and "dealing" with Nick and Kim. Both dealers and the tables looked very professional.

I was very pleased to find this business, especially since I am not local, so can't easily pop into a store and talk to the owner to learn more about the flowers. But it was an easy online process. I planned to send flowers for my mom who lives in Virginia for her birthday. Instead of the standard 1-800 flowers, I wanted to choose a local florist in the area that offered delivery and support a small business. After some research of northern Virginia florists who offer delivery on flower bouquets, I chose Chaya Floral, which I highly recommend. Chaya Floral's website was easy to use, with a good amount of floral bouquets to choose from for delivery. Compared to other florists, Chaya is more expensive. However, their arrangements are high-quality with fresh flowers and lovely designs. It's worth the money. I chose the "Touch of Love" design, which was modern and chic, which I knew my mom would love. When checking out, you can add items for an extra charge, so I added a balloon with the bouquet and made sure to place it a few days before my mom's birthday for delivery. They cannot deliver on the same day, so plan ahead. On delivery day, my mom was not at home at the time when the florist attempted to deliver, so the florist called me and let me know that instead of leaving it at the door, she would drive out and deliver it again in a few hours, which I appreciated since it was raining that day and we didn't want the flowers to be outside in the rain. The bouquet looked very similar to what's displayed online, and they also indicate that if certain flowers aren't available, they will substitute flowers of equal or higher quality. Also, instead of a typed message, the florist handwrites the message on a card for an extra touch. I'm very glad I found Chaya Floral and would highly recommend using Chaya for flowers in the northern Virginia area.

I recognize that the Magic Duel takes huge pride in 5 star reviews on Yelp, which I deeply respect. But I did wish that we had seen the show in a different venue. I am no stage expert, but lights and sound do matter a lot in delivery of a magic show for a skeptic like me, going because the significant other loves magic shows. With better lighting, things would have been more "magical" (thinking bottles.) I was also surprised that a bubble artist, as good as she was in her profession, was considered a magician. After some quick research, you will end up at Magic Duel in this genre, so please go to Dupont or Georgetown.
