    Amazing Wedding

    What can I say!!! Amy and her team were amazing, professional, they provided advice and guidance throughout the process. The vendor selection was both diverse and affordable. They were very flexible as well. Our Monday Brunch Wedding was such fun thanks to Amy and the team! We appreciate the hospitality and support! We highly recommend the Ospreys at Belmont Bay.!

    Mr & Mrs Strong

    The Osprey’s did a wonderful job with our wedding. We knew that they would going in because they've done my older sisters wedding and the send off for my late nephew. I knew we would be in good caring hands with the Osprey’s I cried all day tears of joy. Everyone involved was super helpful and attentive to my husband and my needs and the execution was beautiful.

    Thank you Ospreys!

    This review is long overdue! My husband and I got married here back in August and we are still thinking of how perfect the day was. The staff at Osprey’s at Belmont Bay were beyond professional and responsive to our needs and concerns. I have to specifically mention Vanessa who was assigned our venue coordinator. She made everything super easy and was always a step ahead. The reason we chose this venue was because of its convenient location and how GORGEOUS it is! All of my guests were raving about how clean and beautiful the venue was. This was such an affordable venue for all that it offered. I would recommend this venue to anyone in the northern Virginia area for your special event!

    The Osprey's at Belmont Bay's reply:

    We appreciate your kind words and were so happy to share in your beautiful day! Thanks for trusting us and choosing The Osprey's to celebrate, it was a pleasure!

    Fantastic Venue!

    We just was married on 6.29.23 and it was the absolute best time/day ever! Our wedding coordinator Gaby was a pleasure to work with and so professional. We got along with all of the Event Directors, that we even invited them to party with us and they did! If you are looking for a beautiful venue with great landscape and back drop for your special day, look no further!

    A Day to Remember...

    We held our wedding at The Ospreys on 6.10.2023 and it couldn't have been a more perfect day! Our criteria were simple. Somewhere that encompassed the beauty of Northern Virginia, catered to our loved ones and offered something for all ages! We had a positive experience from beginning to end! I can't tell you how many times I heard that something would go wrong, but not to panic. I had zero reason to panic because it went smoothly! The staff definitely put my mind at ease and took care of the details. All of our guests were impressed by the venue and everyone the encountered.

    I highly recommend this venue for simple and elegant tastebuds!

    Sincerely,

    A happy bride!

    We are thrilled that you enjoyed your experience with us, thank you for taking the time to spread some love!
    All the best,

    The Osprey's at Belmont Bay was the Perfect Venue for Us!

    We got married on 5/20/23 at the Osprey’s at Belmont Bay and it was the perfect venue for us. From our initial visit to tour the venue we knew that the Osprey’s was the place we wanted to say I do. Everything from the getting ready suites (which are super spacious and beautiful) to the ceremony site on the water, to the stunning reception space and everything in between was absolutely perfect. If you are looking for a “light and airy” venue with stunning outdoor views on the water this venue is for you.

    We had the opportunity to work with Amy throughout our entire planning process. We initially met her at our venue tour and were lucky enough to have her as our event director on our big day. She was a huge help with all of our wedding planning including giving insight, helping to bring ideas to life and so much more. She coordinated our day perfectly and helped make the day run soothly, making the day completely stress free for us. We are forever thankful to have had her be such a big part of our wedding day!

    We 110% recommend the Osprey’s!!

    Absolutely beautiful

    Ospreys is a beautiful venue. The bright farmhouse look was exactly what I was looking for. The pergola wedding was beautiful in front of the water. Gabby was our event coordinator and she was amazing! She was fun, professional and we loved how she could work and still mingle with the kids. The price was great for the whole experience we had there. Highly recommend!

I have worked with both Vanessa and Amy and they were so great to work with. They were so helpful and everything was on point. My wedding turned out absolutely beautiful.

    Wedding of my dreams

    I am so thankful for the team at the Osprey’s! Vanessa helped bring my vision to life. It still feels like a dream having had such a beautiful wedding at this venue. I still have guests telling me how stunning my wedding was and it’s been almost a month since the event! So incredibly thankful for Vanessa and the team at the Osprey’s for making my dream wedding a reality!

    Absolute Best Decision Made

    The absolute best decision we made was to have the wedding reception at the Osprey's. Vanessa is so hands on and does amazing decorating. They also have a day off coordinator on site to ensure all goes smooth. Highly recommend using their recommended vendors. Because we chose them, we were able to have the best vendors like Zandi and Hemibry's.

    The absolute BEST and BEAUTIFUL - event coordinator included

    We looked at three different venues in the Occoquan area (Harbour View, River View and this one, The Ospreys.) The Ospreys was by far the nicest and the best deal. It had stunning indoor/outdoor areas and was right on the river (they have a spacious bridal suite and groom's quarters too.) PLUS they include an event coordinator and free access to use their stock of amazing decorations. Gabby and Amy were responsive and gave much assurance leading up the big day. Gabby was our assigned event coordinator and her expertise, professionalism and thoughtfulness made the event flow smoothly and so stress-free. This beautiful yet affordable venue is quite a gem in the area and I highly recommend it.

    Honestly the best day of my life. Vanessa is truly an artist and made my dreams come to life. Amy was also so helpful and amazing in the beginning stages of my planning, I would definitely recommend The Ospreys 10/10

    Amazing Venue

    We had the pleasure of working with Vanessa as our event coordinator and we were sold. From the first tour till the day of our wedding we knew we had selected the right venue for us. We had initially thought to have a large number of guest, but down sized once we fell in love with the venue. We really loved that they offer the event coordinator as part of the package as well as the decor support. We want to personally thank Vanessa because she was there for it all from day one, she responded to emails no matter what time we sent them, she made sure everything went as planned and as discussed, worked with our vendors to make sure everything we had imagined for our day went perfectly. She was flexible and helped us bring our dream to a reality. Thank you Ospreys and thank you Vanessa and team!!!

    Everything went great!

    Vanessa was on top of things and we couldn’t be happier. The venue was beautiful and we had an absolute blast. Only improvement could be closer to a hotel but that’s not even on them. We had a shuttle and it worked great.

    Wonderful experience.

    The Osprey’s at Belmont Bay was hands down the best venue for our big day! This venue had everything we wanted--outdoor space for the ceremony, a waterfront, bride and groom suites, and elegant decor. A big thank you to Amy who was an exceptional first impression of Osprey's. Vanessa, our Event Director, displayed awesome wedding planning expertise and patience throughout the entire process. She and her staff worked diligently to ensure our day was absolutely amazing and stress free. We are truly grateful for a wonderful and memorable wedding day.

    Stunning venue and lovely staff

    My husband and I fell in love with the venue the moment we arrived. We loved the waterfront pergola and the convenience of the reception being right there. It was a stressful time planning for us because I was having health problems and was going to need surgery soon. We pushed my surgery back because we did not want to have to postpone our wedding. I really doubt we would have been able to pull it off if it wasn't with the help of our amazing coordinator, Vanessa. Vanessa was so helpful and so detail oriented. The venue is stunning, but what made this place so special was the help and love that the staff put into making your day the BEST DAY EVER! This place will always have a special place in our hearts.

    Unbelievably good!!!

    The Osprey’s provided the most perfect wedding experience for my now husband and I. From the moment we saw their beautiful location, we knew this was the spot for us! Our coordinator was Vanessa, who was a godsend a million times over, especially in the stressful days leading up to our event. Vanessa handled everything wonderfully, and went above and beyond to make our occasion special and perfect. She thought of everything, including all the things I didn’t! Our guests were so impressed with her professionalism, and the beauty of our location. After seeing some of my friends experiences with vendors this summer, it makes me all the more grateful we went with the Osprey’s: the staff made sure our day was stress-free, and every detail was perfect. Thank you to Vanessa and the rest of the Osprey’s team for an amazing wedding that we will never forget!!

    Best Venue Ever!

    The Osprey's is such a beautiful venue and we are so happy that we chose them for our wedding! The ceremony pergola with the Bay as the backdrop was so amazing! The weather for our late June wedding was a bit hot, but it definitely helped that our late afternoon ceremony at the pergola had shade from the surrounding trees.

    Vanessa was our coordinator from the Osprey's and she was so crucial in helping everything run smoothly on our wedding day! She was very professional and so easy to work with - helping provide recommendations and answering our questions as the ultimate wedding expert. Makeup and hair took longer than expected, but Vanessa was able to work with our vendors to help us get as back-on-schedule as possible. She handled everything that needed to be handled on our special day, already knew almost all of our vendors prior to our event, and was such a lifesaver throughout it all! She and her team also set up all the decorations that we had provided (according to the descriptions we provided) in the ceremony location, ballroom, and dining room. They were all so dreamy!

    Since we initially booked the venue, the Osprey's added new furniture and decor to their venue which made it even more amazing than we had originally anticipated for our wedding day! The bridal and groomsmen suites had everything we needed (mirror, minifridge, etc...) and it was so fun to get ready at the venue! We got so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful our wedding was!

    Thanks again to Vanessa and the rest of the team at the Osprey's for making our wedding a dream come true!

    Amazing wedding venue

    We loved our experience at The Ospreys. The staff was super friendly, helpful, and flexible. The venue was beautiful inside and out. We had the ceremony outside by the water and the reception inside. Really nice spaces for the groom and guys downstairs and the bridal suite for the bride and girls upstairs. We had around 90 guests and the venue felt like the perfect size, although if you had 120-130 I bet you would feel good too. If you go with this venue, stick with their recommended vendors (DJ Andres, Taste of Elegance catering) as they are pros and know this venue very well. We are very happy with our choice!

    Exceptional!

    Top notch care to details and creating the vision for our wedding that we wanted. The venue was clean, classy, and inviting. They were flexible with our needs, had vendors to connect us with, and had great ideas to contribute when it came to things we simply did not think about. I thank Vanessa dearly. She was dependable, creative, and kind.

    Best hidden gem in the area! I loved everything about this venue, the staff is amazing and the views are perfect for your wedding pictures! I’m so glad I found this venue.

    Unforgettable Day!

    First and foremost, this review is very overdue - life threw us a few curveballs right after the wedding lol

    But anyway, the Ospreys at Belmont Bay was everything we hoped and dreamed of especially since we were trying to find a space like theirs at relatively short notice. We originally wanted a destination wedding but after those plans had to change we set out to find a venue local to us, near the water with a view, that we could have our ceremony outside and cocktail hour/reception inside within a reasonable price. The Ospreys was the only venue that checked off all our boxes; we are so thankful. They not only had multiple spaces for the actual event, there was also a beautiful bridal suite and groom's quarters that everyone loved. Around back, their infamous willow tree and rolling green hills are picturesque. Their vendor list was awesome and reliable. Not only did the venue deliver, but Amy, our event director was also amazing! We are so grateful to have had her guidance and attention throughout this process. Her expertise helped us reorganize our day (which ran an hour behind....shout out to my lashes making me crazy late to the wedding). She not only never missed a beat but we were still able to pretty much do and have everything we wanted without feeling stressed or rushed like crazy. She worked extremely well with our wedding party and family to keep everything smooth. If you're looking for the whole package, look no further. The space and the people were out of this world amazing and we're so happy we found them.

    Amazing Experience, venue and Staff

    Our wedding was just perfect. What I loved the most was that it was so local for our family and friends but so elegant and beautiful. The Scenery was perfect. Our wedding day coordinator Vanessa was absolutely amazing with every detail. We worried about nothing but our moment together. Highly recommend.
