    Best Venue ever

    I cannot rave about Kate and The Hillcrest Estate enough. The property is stunning. The accommodations on property are amazing and Kate does a phenomenal job managing it all. This is an absolute dream venue.

    Wonderful and Beautiful

    We looked at several venues and kept coming back to Hillcrest. Kate was great to work with and helped keep me on track with timelines. She was there on our wedding day to help things run smooth and take care of any issues. Our money went a lot further at Hillcrest when compared to other venues. It was a beautiful setting and our guests loved it!

    Beautiful and flexible

    The whole venue is beautiful. We got ready in the brand new bridal suite and we’re blown away by the beauty of everything there! Kate was very quick to respond and helped us set up the day before the wedding. We loved it and our guests loved it too!

    Intimate and Romantic Weddings at Hillcrest Estate

    If you're looking for an intimate and elegant country wedding, Hillcrest Estate is the venue for you. The grounds are private and expansive, and the cobblestone mansion is romantic and full of vintage charm. The newly remodeled bridal suite offers a comfortable space for your party to relax and prepare, and an ideal spot for photographs. Kate and her staff are organized, detail-oriented, and thoughtful. We could not have asked for better partners in planning our wedding and making our day truly special. We highly recommend the Hillcrest Estate.

    I found this venue while looking for an outdoor ceremony site near my reception site. I live in VA so after finding Hillcrest I sent my brother and his fiance out to take a look. They said that I would love it so I booked The Hillcrest Estate for my rehearsal dinner and ceremony site unseen and it was probably the best thing I ever did! The venue coordinator was wonderful and worked with me every step of the way. She made our rehearsal and dinner run smoothly and my ceremony was out of a story book. I would highly recommend this venue!

    The Hillcrest Estate's reply:

    Thank you! You guys were such fun to work with!

    Nice place out in the country. Nestled back in off the road. Take a step back in history, in this little gem of a place. Host any gathering here.
    Great owners, will do what they can to make your party special. Give them a call.

    Wonderful experience!

    I've attended numerous events here and all have been fantastic! You drive down a long driveway and then walk up to a grand mansion located in the woods, it's hidden and secluded! It has a fantastic history and I'm so happy the owner is very passionate about the property and very accommodating. I cannot wait to come back!

    A Dream Location at an Affordable Price

    We had our rehearsal and wedding at Hillcrest and would definitely recommend them for your event! This historic estate is a beautiful place with a family feel. Kate, Lynn, and family put a lot of work into making the grounds and ballroom look beautiful. They were there the whole weekend, helping us during set up and the event itself. I don’t think we could have found another venue that would have suited our needs and vision for our wedding better.

    I cannot recommend Hillcrest highly enough! Not only is it a beautiful estate, rich in history and elegance, but Kate and her family go above and beyond to ensure that everything is handled perfectly. They took care of absolutely everything we needed for my daughter's wedding, and it could not have turned out better. They tend to the smallest details ( driving to pick up a high chair for my grandson ), and made the day one that every parent dreams of for their daughter.

    We loved hosting Jordanne's wedding and loved every detail that went into her special day!

    An Estate to Remember: I attended a wedding at Hillcrest in the summer of 2017 and was in love with the venue. The cobblestone on the estate combined with the country setting made for a beautiful and romantic backdrop. The service on the lawn was intimate and picturesque. The cocktail hour in the ball room was a great location to spend time and mingle with other guests as the bridal party took photos. The staff was helpful and friendly. I will definitely consider this location for a wedding venue.

    Perfect venue for and outdoor wedding

    My husband and I had the privilege of having our wedding and reception at The Hillcrest Estate back in 2012. The space was perfect for an outdoor ceremony. I would recommend them to anyone! They were very accommodating with all of our planning and went above and beyond to make sure the everything was in perfect.
