    An Amazing Venue

    Amazing venue and food!!! The servers were amazing, especially Mrs. Patty was awesome and was part of our wedding from the food tasting to the wedding day. The wedding venue is handicapped accessible, which was important for my wedding party. There were no leftovers, as the wedding party ate all of the yummy cake. The venue photographs exceptionally well and venue staff can be reached by phone at all points of the day. Loved the experience of marrying here and every guest commented on how awesome the venue was!!!

    Incredible Venue

    If you just visit Great Marsh, you can see how beautiful of a venue it is. We knew as soon as we visited it that it was the right venue for us, and are so happy we chose there. While the venue speaks for itself, I'll note in this review that the entire staff is just as great as the venue is--from planning all the way through the night, they were fantastic. Highly recommend!

    Wedding Venue

    Lauren did a great job coordinating our wedding needs and making my wedding dream come true. Through the planning process, the wedding day, and everything in between Lauren was very professional, organized, and accommodating! Everything was set in place of how I imagined, and we couldn’t have been happier with the outcome. Great Marsh was already beautiful, but Lauren and her team, made my dream wedding come true. Thank you Lauren for all your hard work and dedication!

    Great Marsh Estate's reply:

    Hi Melanie,
    You are too sweet! Your wedding was GORGEOUS and we loved having you here at Great Marsh Estate! Thank you so much-- I hope you are loving married life :)

    Wonderful Venue with so many 'bonuses'!

    Lauren and the team at Great Marsh Estate was amazing! We had our wedding at Great Marsh on 12/3/2022. The venue is spacious, and beautiful! Having an on-site location for both the bride and groom to get ready was a huge bonus! It was also amazing having both the Manor House and Stable locations for the ceremony and reception. It truly was the best of both worlds. The venue coordinator, Lauren, was very kind and helpful from the moment we booked this venue back in September of 2021. I would recommend Great Marsh Estate to anyone looking for a beautiful venue just outside of Northern VA.

    Great Marsh Estate is my dream venue!!

    The manor house is impeccably decorated and beautifully unique. The Bridgerton dream!! The ceremony field is breathtaking. The barn is the perfect mix of chic and rustic. Lauren was so helpful and accommodating throughout the entire process from touring Great Marsh to the wedding day. It rained on our wedding day, so we had to change our ceremony location to the barn. However, the barn was still perfect for our ceremony. It was very cozy and intimate. Lauren and her team were so helpful on the wedding day.

    We are so glad we stumbled upon Great Marsh. It was love at first sight when we drove onto the property driveway.

    Gorgeous and Unforgettable Venue

    Great Marsh Estate is THE most gorgeous venus in Virginia!! Great Marsh was our first venue visit, and even after visiting 8 other venues, we knew it was the one. The manor home is gorgeous and leaves such an impression when you come up the driveway. The grounds are expansive and perfect for photos. Lauren is super responsive and helped make our day perfect! We would highly recommend Great Marsh to any bride looking for a showstopper in the DMV area.

    Great Marsh Estate

    Great Marsh was absolutely breathtaking. So beautiful inside and out. The Manor house is absolutely stunning and elegant while the barn is more rustic- it’s the perfect combination. The bridal suit was perfect with Plenty of space to get ready with great lightening. My fiancé has know Lauren for quite sometime and she was great. Everything went smoothly and they made sure everything was set for us. I cant Imagine having our wedding everywhere else. The whole day was everything we could have imagined!

    Absolutely perfect!

    Great Marsh Estate is unlike any other! Our tour with Lauren sealed the deal immediately in our venue search. The property is absolutely breathtaking and exquisitely maintained! What really impressed us was the management. Lauren made us feel like we were the only ones getting married there throughout our whole planning process. She was so prompt answering countless emails and questions and really went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and prepared. All of the staff at the venue was so polite and friendly we felt like royalty! The morning of the wedding, the set-up seemed effortless. With rain mid-day, we expected to have to change our plan but the venue was so accommodating letting us wait it out to ultimately have the perfect break in clouds and sun for our ceremony. This venue will always hold a special place in our hearts and we couldn't be happier we chose Great Marsh Estate to get married at!

    Great Marsh Estate's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words! It was an absolute pleasure being part of your big day. Wishing you happiness & love in your new married life!! Thank you again!

    Stunning Venue

    Great Marsh Estate was a gorgeous setting for our wedding - we knew at our first visit that it was the place for us! They were so willing to work with us when our pandemic wedding got postponed three times. Our contact, Lauren, was amazingly knowledgeable, responsive and gracious - and able to refer us to many different vendors. We and our guests loved the idyllic setting, from the manor to the stables. And having the bridal suite on site was a huge plus. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful venue.

    Enchanting setting and professional service

    I can’t say enough good things about Great Marsh Estate wedding venue in Bealeton, Virginia. My daughter Hannah’s wedding ceremony and reception were held there in November. Every aspect of the event was a success, from initial planning through the sendoff of the bride and groom. My husband and I went home that evening tired but with smiles on our faces. Lauren Kruck and Camillia Lykins were consummate professionals and a great help to me throughout. They were patient, flexible, available, and on top of every detail. The manor house, the grounds, and the reception stable were enchanting backdrops to this special day. The second-floor bridal suite was a relaxing and spacious place to prepare hair, makeup, and gowns. Hannah and Jake were wed under the cedars by the pond. The reception stable and patio were welcoming and helped our guests feel at home for the evening’s events. It was a magical location.

    The BEST wedding venue and the best team

    We had our wedding in October 2021 and Great Marsh was the perfect venue for it - it was so beautiful, and the Great Marsh team was just so amazing to work with throughout this entire wedding planning process. We can't thank you enough for everything. Thank you for making our wedding so special.

    Great Wedding Venue with a Terrific Staff

    Great Marsh is a beautiful pastural setting for anyone looking for a country wedding venue. The mansion, grounds and the converted stable combine to make the an incomparable wedding day experience. The staff was experienced, attentive and thoroughly professional from the start of planning through the wedding itself. I would recommend Great Marsh to anyone looking for an ideal wedding experience.

    The Perfect Wedding Venue

    We immediately fell in love with Great Marsh as soon as we visited and knew it would be the perfect spot for our winter wedding! Lauren was wonderful to work with and answered all of our questions. We had many unforeseen changes to our wedding and she was always there to help and let us know our options. We highly recommend Great Marsh to any couple looking for a potential venue, you will not find a better place around!

    Stunning!!

    We got married recently (November 2020) at Great Marsh, and wow did it exceed any expectations we had! We chose to book Great Marsh without actually touring - risky, we know! But from the photos and the prompt, professional response from the staff (thank you, Lauren!) it was an easy decision!

    We had the pleasure of working with Lauren from the Great Marsh team. I can’t say enough wonderful things about her. She was clear in answering all of our questions, extremely quick in getting any details and information over to us, and one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet! She was available all throughout the process, even the day-of making sure we all had everything we needed.

    Great Marsh has a romantic charm that is indescribable. We thought we wanted the more “rustic” vibe for ceremony and reception - which the newly renovated stables provided, but the Manor and outdoor ceremony site is simply breathtaking! We lucked out with a beautiful day in November so we could utilize the outdoor ceremony site and I’m so thankful for that. The great Marsh team adjusted to our last minute changes flawlessly. With things ever changing during the pandemic, Great Marsh was on top of communication with the changing protocols; they followed all guidelines and took extra precautions to keep us, and our guests, safe.

    Day-of getting ready in the manor was magical. There are enough rooms if you have a large or small group, everyone feels comfortable and has privacy if needed. The vintage charm of the manor is something out of a fairytale.

    The team works seamlessly with communication and transportation from the manor to the stable. The stable was the perfect setting for a cozy dinner and reception; fire pits were a hit with all the guests too!

    The layout of Great Marsh is perfect for large or small weddings and the staff goes above and beyond. We could not have asked for a better venue and team, and are thankful we had such a beautiful venue for our special day!

    Wedding Venue

    We booked Great Marsh Estate for our wedding in September 2020, they were amazing to work with from the beginning. The place is stunning, and you can’t go wrong with a ceremony and reception there. The furniture included is beautiful, and it was hard narrowing down spots for pictures. Highly recommend them, and our guests raved about how beautiful it was.

    The true fairy tale wedding venue

    When you visit this place it is magical. Jessica is so straight forward and professional. She made sure to go over every detail with us and made it so easy to make a decision. I love that there was no pressure but she still sold me on this venue because of the perks and beauty this place has. The tour Jessica gave was like a fairy tail. I believe she will make sure that all the staff and assistants hired will compliment the venue.

    Absolutely Breathtaking

    Great Marsh Estate was the absolute perfect venue for our wedding. We knew immediately upon arrival that the vast open landscape, gorgeous mansion, and roomy stable was just what we were looking for. The team was communicative, helpful, and responsive, and helped our guests remain safe and comfortable during the COVID-19 situation. We cannot recommend Great Marsh enough!

    Perfection!

    Great Marsh Estate was the absolute perfect venue for our daughter’s wedding. Lauren Kruck and the staff at Great Marsh went above and beyond all expectations to make the day memorable and absolutely fabulous. This venue is a true gem and I am so thankful for all of their efforts and sincere desire to make the wedding so special. Every area of the property from the gorgeous Manor House, exquisite accommodations, charming Stable, beautiful grounds and welcoming atmosphere makes Great Marsh Estate a spectacular one of a kind wedding venue!

    Magical & dreamy!

    Great Marsh Estate is a DREAM! The grounds, main house, stable, etc are absolutely stunning, but the team working there is incredible, as well. We rescheduled our wedding two times, but Lauren and GM were incredibly gracious and flexible which speaks volumes about how they operate as a business (meant the WORLD, especially when making emotional decisions). They had wonderful recommendations of vendors and were supportive throughout the whole process. In my opinion, GM has all the elements (and more!) to have the dreamiest wedding. Some of our favorite features below:
    -bridal and grooms suites (on-site so you don't have to get ready and drive over mid-day)
    -the stunning grounds (SO many spots for pictures)
    -gorgeous backup rain option
    -spacious, indoor/ outdoor options
    -so beautiful on own, you can add as much or as little decor as you want
    -the back lawn-- I mean!?

    We are so grateful we chose GM as our venue, especially during covid (I heard nightmare stories of other couples/ venue issues). We would 10000% go back and do it all again if we could, so we definitely highly recommend.

    Mother of the Bride

    Great Marsh is unique and beautiful. 4 months later, our guests are stills talking about its magic. One of the wonderful things is that out guests moved to three different places within the same location for three important moments throughout the wedding: ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. We even got to spend the night and have a delicious gourmet style breakfast the next morning! It was a dream!

    Dream Venue!

    This wedding venue is truly a dream come true! It provides an experience for guests that is unlike anything any other wedding venue can offer. The property is beautiful, pristine, and well taken care of. The mansion and stable are breath-taking. We loved that we could have two types of venues on the same property and provide our guests an experience unlike anything else!

    The staff at Great Marsh are also amazing!! Jessica knows the wedding industry inside and out, and has truly thought of everything to make this the best wedding venue. She is extremely professional, responsive, flexible, accommodating, and always has a positive attitude. Both her and Lauren worked tirelessly on the day of our wedding to make it the perfect day for us! They truly care about each of their couples and will go out of their way to make you feel like the most important Bride and Groom out there.

    We were so happy to have had our wedding at Great Marsh Estate and have so many fond memories that we will always cherish! We cannot recommend this venue enough for your wedding! It is truly a dream come true!

    Fairy Tale

    This place is breathtaking! There is so much that I love about this venue! When looking at other venues I didn't like how there would be so many people around when trying to get ready (i.e. a winery where customers are there until the time of your wedding). I wanted a place with privacy and that is what Great Marsh has!

    I got married on a Friday so I was able to stay on property the night before my wedding (Thursday night). I had the whole property to myself and family starting Thursday afternoon until after the wedding. My bridal party and immediate family were able to get our hair and makeup done on site, and the groomsmen were able to get ready in the groomsmen lounge.
    I loved having a hang out place where we could all relax, eat, and get ready before the wedding. It made the day much more fun not having to travel anywhere to get ready and just walk down the stairs to start pictures/ the ceremony! Not to mention the bridal suite is made for a princess!

    The view from the back of the estate makes for a gorgeous view! I am so happy I chose Great Marsh and my guests had an amazing experience too!

    Get married here

    Great Marsh is a BEAUTIFUL venue if you are looking for something outside of the "got married in a country barn" vibe. Their barn is 200 years old and refurbished to look like a French countryside dream. The manor is breathtaking and will be gorgeous (no matter the weather - it poured on my wedding day). To top it all off, Lauren (the manager) and her team will make the entire process seamless! They are so accommodating, kind, and truly want you to love your day!
