About

Waverly Estate is a beautiful venue that sits on eight acres of land in the town of Lunenburg, Virginia. The circa 1838 home, church, and stunning new event building with a greenhouse feel are directly next to a 200-acre cattle farm and provide a whimsical, vintage, and garden vibe. The 200-year-old hackberry tree that sits on the property is one of the favorite ceremony spots. The grounds of Waverly Estate are now completely filled with towering magnolia trees, crepe myrtles, and weeping willows. This natural scenery provides a magical background for any wedding event.

The Parlor Room is an ideal space for intimate dinners or receptions and can comfortably fit 32 guests for dinner.

My Saving Grace

We chose Waverly because of the location along with offering everything we needed in one place. Sarah, the owner, is awesome to work with and super helpful. Rachel the wedding planner was my LIFESAVER. Her smile and upbeat attitude kept me grounded and made our day absolutely perfect. She totally got my vibe of exactly what I was looking for and is just an all around amazing person. I could not have imagined having my "Tropical Storm" wedding any where else. If you are not choosing Waverly, you are truly missing out!

Most Beautiful and Best Venue around!

Have your wedding at Waverly Estate! I cannot say enough how grateful we are that we had our wedding at Waverly Estate. We wanted a venue with a natural landscape and a glass house/greenhouse type building and luckily we found Waverly Estate! Not only is the entire grounds GORGEOUS, the Waverly team is professional, easy to work with, and does business in a way I wish most people would, especially in the wedding industry. I can truly say, Waverly Estate will try to save you money unlike some other places/vendors will. You have so many options as to how you hold your ceremony. Waverly Estate works to ensure you have as easy a wedding as possible! I did not realize how having a venue with a house on the grounds for the whole weekend makes everything so much easier for the set up and clean up for the wedding. It also gave us the opportunity to spend a weekend with our closest friends and family, instead of just the wedding day. This all-inclusive venue has an AMAZING in-house caterer (Fuqua School), amazing florist & wedding designer (Hunter and Marigold), cake bakers (Confections of a Cake), DJ (Cluster Entertainment), and an amazing event coordinator, MaryJean. MaryJean really made our wedding planning easy. She was incredibly responsive with all our questions leading up to the wedding. She made sure we were on track to have everything prepped for the wedding (my husband and I did the wedding planning and didn’t hire a wedding planner) and she took care of so much on top of coordinating our wedding day! MaryJean and the Waverly team really helped to slow things down for us on our wedding day. MaryJean is so calm and chill, yet highly organized and proactive, that her demeanor would calm the family/bride (me)/etc too. My husband and I never felt rushed and we felt completely taken care of. Things like making sure we ate and bringing us food, and asking us if we needed a few more minutes for something helped so much. She was actively ensuring we were doing what we want on our wedding day. I want to go on and on about her but you may not read this whole review lol. I honestly don’t know how she coordinates every wedding and rehearsal dinner at Waverly Estate. Waverly made everything easy by booking vendors for us. We were so happy with all the vendors Waverly set us up with as part of our package (the Estate Package). The only thing we got outside of their list of vendors was a Photographer and Officiant. We got the most bang for our buck here! I’m so ecstatic to call myself a Waverly Bride :)
