The UVA chapel is absolutely beautiful and makes a wonderful setting for your wedding. You can choose the officiant of your choice and are not bound by any specific religious traditions. If you are a UVA alumni or student, you get a discount. The chapel is located on UVA grounds near the center of Charlottesville, close to many reception venues. We loved having our wedding there.

We really enjoyed our rehearsal dinner at the Omni in Charlottesville. They were extremely flexible and helpful as we tried to find a menu that met our taste, budget, and dietary needs. The food was delicious and the room looked great.

Jason and Tammy provide exceptional photography services and beautiful photo products. They are one of the only photographers we found who allow you to have digital copies of all photos taken without having to buy prints. They also don't price their services per hour - they were there from the beginning to the end of the day, capturing every moment. They are fun people to be around, and by the end of the wedding we felt as though they were our friends as well as our photographers. The pictures are beautiful, we can't stop looking at them. Jason and Tammy use a photojournalistic style, and catch the small unscripted moments rather than making everyone pose the whole time. They are creative and professional, and really love what they do. We are so happy with our decision and we can't wait to get our photo album from the wedding back (our wedding was just a couple weeks ago). I would highly recommend them, you will not be disappointed!

Harvest Moon catering in Charlottesville provided high quality services at a more reasonable rate than many other Charlottesville caterers that I researched. Harvest Moon was very flexible and willing to work with the menu and budget that we proposed. Their food was delicious and we got many compliments on it. Harvest Moon staff made our every idea come true, and most of the time had suggestions that made the day even better! They thought of and took care of everything, right down to the basket of leftovers for my husband and I to take back to our hotel room that night. We would not change anything about their services. Staff members were always extremely professional and helpful, and did everything possible to make our day perfect. Harvest Moon also strives to use local and organic food, and donates leftovers to community members in need whenever possible. They are a conscientious and responsible organization. I highly recommend this company.

We absolutely loved the invitations that we ordered from Designs By Tine. They were beautiful and exactly what we had in mind. We got so many wonderful compliments on them, we were almost afraid that the rest of the wedding wouldn't live up to them! They were made with high quality paper and looked like we paid much more for them than we did. She also included a map for the back of the invite that looked great! Christine worked hard to get everything right and made any requested changes quickly. We were able to choose the exact colors, designs, and envelopes that we wanted. What a great value! It was so nice to have invitations that were totally unique, not preprinted with set wording and colors.
