Romance, history, and picturesque scenery combine to make Virginia a perfect place for couples planning an elopement. Picture exchanging vows in the historic parlor of a bed and breakfast and spending your honeymoon night in a romantic room lit by the soft glow of a crackling fire. Best of all, you can leave all the planning to your helpful innkeeper.
It's no secret that planning a wedding can be a hassle. Even preparing for an elopement can be stressful. Seasoned innkeepers, such as Sharon and Samuel Elswick of the Holladay House in Orange, Virginia, are ready and willing to help their guests plan a special, intimate elopement. Getting married themselves at a small Virginia bed and breakfast, they loved the experience so much that they decided to start an inn. Now, they even offer an elopement package; all you have to do is bring the wedding license, which can be purchased at the local courthouse.
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.
The Holladay House is a historic gem, listed on the National Register of Historic Places as part of the Orange Commercial Historic District. Built in the early 19th century, the gracious brick Federal-style home has witnessed its share of history, including a Civil War cavalry skirmish that occurred just a few feet from the inn. You can relax on the front porch with a good book, explore the charm of the historic village of Orange, or take a country drive and enjoy the scenery of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
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.
With all this pampering, not to mention the convenience of having your innkeepers prepare your special ceremony, a Virginia bed and breakfast is an ideal location for an elopement. The innkeepers at the Holladay House will go above and beyond to make your wedding a happy one.
