The services Keswick staff provided (we believe) is unmatched by any venue around. Their communication is top notch. They provide recommendations of vendors that took the guesswork and mystery out of the search, along with the stress knowing vendors had the Schornberg seal of approval (the team dynamic between the vendors was absolutely perfect the day of the wedding!). They pay attention to the smallest of details (details we would never have thought of) to make your day even that much more memorable. We had the majority of family coming in from out of state, so Cindy and Brian provided a hotel list and airbnbs in the area. It almost felt like we had a wedding planner that came with the venue!

When my now husband and I walked into Keswick Vineyards we knew we had to get married there. We first met with Brian and he was super professional, nice, and informative. From there, whenever I had a question they always answered quickly and were always friendly. I loved that they let us have free tastings to taste the new vintages whenever we went to visit Charlottesville to help us decide what to get for the wedding – it just shows how much they care about their couples! On the day of Cindy, Brian and their team were soo friendly and helpful and after the fact Cindy even mailed us pictures she took of the wedding day! We really felt so loved and welcomed there. Not to mention people could not stop talking about how beautiful the venue was – they still can’t and I don’t blame them! If you want an outdoor wedding that feels whimsical and magical 1000% book Keswick Vineyards

We absolutely loved our experience at Keswick! Cindy was AMAZING and ensured our entire wedding ran smoothly. Wedding planning can be very anxiety producing and chaotic, but I felt completely secure in entrusting Cindy with everything. On top of that, the actual venue is absolutely beautiful and we are still getting compliments on how perfect everything was… thanks for everything, Cindy! You truly helped make our day so special.

We were married on October 7th and the weather was perfect for a fall wedding. With the mountains in the background and nature as our decor, we could not ask for a better venue as we (the couple) enjoy spending time outdoors. The sunset overlooking the mountains was breathtaking. On the property, there is a LOVE sign and a pond, which are great for pictures. The owner Cindy was great to work with and everything came together at the end.
Shikhee & Stephen 10.03.21
Well, after each tour we kept talking about how much we loved Keswick, and that is how we knew that it had the perfect blend of elegance and natural beauty that we were searching for. We knew that we wanted an outdoor wedding with multiple options for ceremony spaces, cocktail hour, and a large, gorgeous tent for the reception – Keswick has all these things and more. We received countless compliments from our guests about how beautiful every part of the property is, and how much they enjoyed our wedding. Not only that, but co-owner, Cindy, her son, Brian, and the rest of the Keswick Vineyards team were a delight to work with. They truly accommodated all of our requests and made our wedding day feel very special. It was very clear from the beginning that the family truly cares about their couples and ensures that the whole wedding operation runs smoothly.

Cindy & her team have created an absolutely perfect wedding venue. Not only are the facilities beautiful and extremely well maintained, they are honestly some of the nicest people to work with. They gave great vendor recommendations and answered any and every questions we came up with along the way. For a Charlottesville wedding venue, Keswick is such a dream – vineyards, mountain views, the fountain and estate, it seriously has everything. We are so grateful to Cindy & the Keswick team for allowing us to celebrate our marriage with them.

My husband and I fell in love with Keswick Vineyards the moment we laid eyes on it, and even among the many gorgeous vineyards to choose from in the area, Keswick stood out as it combines a beautiful breathtaking views and elegance. All of our guests shared our sentiments; we heard over and over how this was the most beautiful wedding they have ever been to. Cindy and Brian were a pleasure to work with! Cindy obviously cares so very much in each and every one of her couples and making sure are happy. She is sweet and wonderful! Keswick allows for so many beautiful backdrops for wedding events and photos, including the gorgeous mountain view, the vineyards, fountain, the beautiful mansion, gorgeous pool, ect. I can’t gush about Keswick enough. It was a dream wedding and I couldn’t have asked for anything more!

We cannot recommend Keswick Vineyards, specifically Cindy (the owner and planner), enough! My husband and I originally had a June 2020 date, but because of COVID, we postponed not just once, but twice. At that time, we had Brian, Cindy’s son working with us directly, and he was amazing throughout our postponements. He never made us feel bad about our decision and was very professional with trying to make a new date work. Planning a wedding is stressful, but having to plan a wedding with COVID in mind takes on a whole new stress level. We chose Keswick as our coordinator and we could not have been happier with Cindy. She’s very organized and detail oriented which is what you want in a planner, but because she knows the venue inside and out, it made the wedding day even more stress free! All of our guests kept saying how beautiful Keswick Vineyards was and it really is beautiful. You have numerous backdrops which include a beautiful mansion, fountain, vines, trees, and mountains which is perfect for photos! Thank you so much Cindy and team – it really was the most perfect day!

We will always consider it a blessing that we were able to have our wedding reception at Keswick Vineyards. The venue is absolutely gorgeous – part of what we loved most is how many different spaces guests were able to explore and how beautiful they all are. The day of our event Cindy, Brian, and the team were on top of everything. We especially appreciated how intentional they were about setting aside time for us as a couple to sit, grab a bite to eat, and relax together for a few minutes throughout the evening. Our original date was impacted by COVID, and Brian and Cindy prioritized making sure we were happy with our new date and plan. Part of why we picked Keswick was the “family feel” of the operation in comparison to other venues in the area that are much more structured and somewhat inflexible. The Keswick team will do their best to make sure their couples have a wonderful day.

We had the best experience working with Cindy and Hailey at Keswick Vineyards! The team worked to make our day run as seamless as possible. The venue itself was gorgeous and our guests had a fantastic time. I would recommend this venue to anyone looking to get married in the Charlottesville/Keswick area!

Going into our wedding, we didn’t know what we were looking for but felt we would know when we saw it. We toured five venues before Keswick and, the moment we arrived, we knew. The setting at Keswick is even more breathtaking in person than any picture could show. The scenic backdrops and distinct ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception spaces were exactly what we were looking for. The bride and groom spaces were also spacious, and a relaxing way to spend time ahead of the ceremony. [Cindy and her team] were great to work with and made the process very easy for us. They were very accommodating, quickly working with us to move our date back a year during COVID, and always willing to provide input and point us to all the vendors they had worked with in the past. They were almost like a second coordinator for us and did so with no expectations in return. On the day of the wedding, they ensured everything went smoothly. They were always available and only escalated things when needed. One of our favorite memories from the ceremony is Cindy, unprompted, finding us in the vineyard following our ceremony and during our photos to slip us our signature cocktails to enjoy. We would pick Keswick Vineyards 10 times out of 10 if we were able to redo that magical day.

Getting married at Keswick was a complete dream. During the planning process we worked with Cindy and her team- and they are all truly so wonderful to work with. They made the planning process as seamless as possible, were flexible and willing to work with us on anything we needed, and quick to answer all questions. We absolutely LOVED getting married at Keswick and enjoyed every minute of the experience, the staff truly makes you feel like family. The property itself is absolutely stunning. Cindy and Hailey were our coordinators for the wedding day and they made the entire day SO seamless! They took care of everything and made sure everything was flowing smoothly.

We absolutely loved having our wedding at Keswick Vineyards. From the moment we first toured Keswick, we knew we wanted to have our wedding there. Cindy and Brian made the planning process easy and were very friendly. They gave great vendor recommendations and were accommodating. All of our guests fell in love with the venue. We hired Brian and Hailey as our month of coordinators and absolutely loved them. Hailey was there every step of the day, from helping me put on sunscreen to making sure I ate enough. We can’t say enough about having a wedding there. We would highly recommend it.

As soon as my husband and I toured Keswick Vineyards, we knew this was the place we wanted to get married. It is a stunning venue with beautiful views. Brian and Haley were so incredibly responsive and assisted to make sure that everything was executed perfectly. With the unknown of what our wedding day would look like, we all stayed optimistic and hopeful and it was worth it because we LUCKED OUT with having all state restrictions lifted on our wedding day. On top of that we had the most perfect weather. It was truly a day we will never forget! I would highly recommend anyone getting married to have it at Keswick Vineyards!!

We couldn’t have asked for a better venue to hold our wedding! We were supposed to have the wedding May 2020, but of course had to postpone to May 2021. Brian and Cindy were so accommodating and kept up to date on all the changes that I made since our walkthrough meeting in the year before. We had full confidence that the staff would make the day seamless and stress free, and it was better than I imagined! Our guests still rave about how beautiful every part of the day was. I highly recommend Keswick Vineyards for your wedding if you want high class staff, elegance, and a picture perfect ceremony background.

Not only were the incredible vineyard views magnificent, but the owners and staff went above and beyond to support us during the process, answer any questions, and assist in making our day perfect. Their hospitality and innate charm went above and beyond to even now after our wedding is over. I cannot say enough how thankful and blessed I am to have booked my wedding at Keswick. [The Keswick Vineyards Team], THANK YOU! for helping make my wedding the ultimate dream fulfilled. I will never forget that. You will not be disappointed if you book Keswick Vineyards. I HIGHLY recommend them!!! They are the BEST! <3

WOW. When my fiance and I first toured Keswick over a year and a half ago, we knew right away it was the venue we wanted to get married at. The views: indescribable. The staff: so warm, welcoming, sweet, and organized. The wine: delicious. Many of our guests commented on how it was the most beautiful venue and wedding they’d ever been to

“I really don’t know what we would have done without Brian and Cindy at Keswick. They saved our wedding, and continued to deliver, up until sending us a lovely card a week after our wedding… Brian and Cindy brought it all together, and my husband and I knew the entire time they were in our corner, devoted to making our day perfect. As a side note, Keswick has also worked very hard to heed all necessary health and safety guidelines to make all guests comfortable at their venue.”

“Our wedding day felt like a complete fairy tale and we are so incredibly thankful for all that they did to provide us with a safe, socially distanced ceremony and reception… I will never be able to put into words what it felt like to walk down the aisle on their gorgeous property with music and all of our friends and family there–it truly was magical and I felt like I was in a dream that i never wanted to end! Even our friends and families mentioned to us that they had never been to such a beautiful wedding”

“Keswick Vineyard is an absolutely stunning venue and worth every penny. Our guests could not say enough good things. While the venue is amazing the staff are even better. I definitely had everything planned to a T and both Cindy and Brian were able to execute my vision the day of flawlessly. They also worked with us to avoid a rain delay, which I was very appreciative of. I cannot say enough good things about this team and venue. If you go with Keswick, hire them as your day of planners too.”

“Saying it was a dream wedding doesn’t do justice to what Keswick Vineyards was able to provide us. From our first visit, my wife’s teared up eyes said it all. After 10+ tours across Richmond and Charlottesville, we knew this was “the one.”
Throughout the entire planning process and day of coordination, the team at Keswick went above and beyond to deliver on their promise to us”
Annie & Nate 08.24.2019

You can see that the setting is beyond compare, but the people and their competence and kindness even surpass the breathtaking ambiance. I strongly recommend hiring Keswick as the day-of coordinators as well. They have also developed a list of preferred vendors who are outstanding and work well together. We loved our son’s wedding and are so thankful to Cindy, Colleen, Brian, and all the workers – and to Stephen for making wonderful wine to help us celebrate. Magical day, wonderful people!”
