The Goodstone Inn

The Goodstone Inn & Restaurant is a breathtaking outdoor space located in Middleburg, Virginia, and it is perfect for a luxurious country wedding. Jane Rader, the fantastic Marketing Director at the Goodstone Inn & Restaurant, is here today to tell us what makes Goodstone such an amazing space:

Goodstone Inn & Restaurant offers picturesque vistas of the 265-acre rolling estate grounds, with the Blue Ridge Mountains in the distance. Goodstone can accommodate different styles of wedding events – from an intimate dining experience in the Carriage House to an elaborate outdoor reception under the stars. The pool, adjacent pool gardens and ivy façade of the old mansion are historic sites for outdoor bridal events.

Our Executive Chef will customize the wedding dining experience as desired. All meals are prepared with the finest and freshest ingredients sourced from the Goodstone Farm itself, or through local providers.

The Ritz-Carlton, Georgetown

Last week, I wrote about The Ritz-Carlton, Washington, D.C., the famous Washington venue. Yet, just down the street, there is a lesser known but just a fabulous second property,  The Ritz-Carlton, Georgetown.

At the Georgetown location, Fahrenheit Ballroom is available for weddings and it is one of the most unique spaces in the city with loft-like ceilings, exposed steel beams and original red brick walls reminiscent of the hotel’s history as a turn-of-the-century brick factory structure that later served as an incinerator.
