Outstanding in every way
Having our wedding at the Williamsburg Inn took what is typically one of the most stressful events in life and made it simple. Every decision was presented in an orderly fashion and made our lives so much easier. Nothing was ever “off the table”, and I cannot say enough nice things about their staff. Always supportive, prompt, willing to go any mile, and never made us feel pressured. Truly, they made the best day of our lives as easy as possible and exactly what we envisioned. They adjusted to our needs and put us first always. Yuani the main coordinator, had exquisite attention to detail, and Lindsay with florals met with us several times to assure the vision was absolutely perfect. The tasting and food were amazing, and the pastry chef took an enormous amount of time to get our unique cake just right. Truly, you can’t go wrong with this team. Cannot recommend enough.Having our wedding at the Williamsburg Inn took what is typically one of the most stressful events in life and made it simple.

Rehearsal Dinner at Shields Tavern
I can’t say enough good things about our event at Shields. It was perfect in every way thanks to Liz and her team. While the price tag is typical of Colonial Williamsburg, I would highly recommend them. Our dinner was turnkey and stress free allowing us to enjoy the evening with our guests.
If I had to do it again I wouldn’t change a thing.

Amazing venue!
Working with the Williamsburg Inn / Lodge for our wedding was amazing. They have a wide variety of event spaces that are all beautiful and well maintained. All spaces are close by and allow for easy movement through the entire day. The events team at the Inn/Lodge is top notch and will go above and beyond to make sure all the small details are taken care of.Working with the Williamsburg Inn / Lodge for our wedding was amazing.

Pure Magic - Book now!!!
I cannot advise you to book your wedding here quick enough! Yuani, Lindsey (Florist), and the whole team here are second to none! From day 1, we felt like family and were treated like royalty. Yuani is by far one of the most amazing persons I have ever met and I can’t imagine having worked with anyone else. She helped make our entire vision come to life, kept us organized and helped brainstorm ways to make all the unique elements happen. The actual day of our wedding was stress free and turned our even better than I imagined! It was elegant, beautiful, and historic, and all our guests said it was the best experience they’ve ever had coming to a wedding (putting the Breakers Palm Beach to shame!) It has changed from being just a venue to us, to being a special place we’ve already spent birthdays and plan to spend our Anniversary’s at and take our kids to one day. Book now, and it’ll be the best decision you’ve ever made - I promise! (Photo credits to Luke and Ashley Photography)I cannot advise you to book your wedding here quick enough!

Amazing experience
Yuani, Manager of Weddings & Special Events at The Williamsburg Inn, worked hand-in-hand with me and my mom to create the wedding of my dreams. She helped guide us through multiple tastings, vendor selections, logistics, and special touches. From starting the day with a chinoiserie bridal luncheon with The Williamsburg Inn chef to the perfect horse-drawn carriage and fife and drum escort, Yuani struck the right balance of classic elegance and Colonial Williamsburg charm. She crafted an incredibly well-planned and beautiful day that I will remember for a lifetime. She is a treasure and my family loved working with her!Yuani, Manager of Weddings & Special Events at The Williamsburg Inn, worked hand-in-hand with me and my mom to create the wedding of my dreams.

Couldn’t ask for a better experience!
The entire experience working with the team at Colonial Williamsburg Resorts was incredible. My husband and I got married in the Oval Garden and had our reception in the Colony Room of the Lodge (~215 guests). Yuani (events), Lindsay (florals), and the catering and pastry teams were phenomenal. Not only were they extremely personable and heartfelt in making our day perfect, but they went above and beyond in all of our expectations. Our communications with them were always thorough, and if there was ever a miscommunication, we got it ironed out with such ease! Our florals were BEAUTIFUL, the food was INCREDIBLE, and the entire experience really couldn’t have been better. They accommodated all of our guests who stayed at the Lodge or other CW properties so professionally. They also worked really wonderfully with all of our outside vendors. I really can’t say enough good things about getting married here!!! You may feel some sticker shock depending on which packages and venues you look at, but it is worth it for a beautiful, worry-free wedding day with the most amazing team.The entire experience working with the team at Colonial Williamsburg Resorts was incredible.

Event fulfilled our dreams
Colonial Williamsburg hosted our son’s rehearsal dinner and wedding welcome party at Shields Tavern Pavilion. Many guests were traveling from out of state and we wanted a fun Virginia feel to the event, with a live band, florals that tied in with local flora, and food that reflected Southern hospitality. Our event contact Yuani Valentine was gracious, professional, and on top of all details to ensure everything came together absolutely beautifully.Colonial Williamsburg hosted our son’s rehearsal dinner and wedding welcome party at Shields Tavern Pavilion.

10/10 experience
Our wedding was a dream! The team at CW was fantastic to work with. Yuani was wonderful to work with. CW is all inclusive with food, cake, flowers and alcohol for the wedding. It was wonderful to have a venue that was all inclusive.
The food was DELICIOUS! Our guests raved about how tasty the food was. We also received a complimentary room the night of the wedding. The staff at the Williamsburg Inn were so amazing to us and our guests. Everyone was wonderful, super attentive to us, and the staff who worked our wedding were wonderful!!

Simply Outstanding
We had a great experience working with CW Resorts for our wedding. The venue options are all beautiful, the food was spectacular, and the staff was so friendly. THE place in Williamsburg to have your wedding!
We worked directly with Yuani, who is such a pleasure. She made sure we had everything we wanted, down to the last detail. She went above and beyond to ensure we had accurate cost estimates and knew our options throughout the planning process.
Unfortunately, our wedding occurred over the weekend Hurricane Ian came up the coast. Through every new weather report, Yuani was on the phone with us, talking about potential options (our ceremony and cocktail hour were scheduled to be outside), and making sure that no matter what happened we would have a beautiful wedding. Thankfully we had a perfect window that Saturday and everything went exactly according to plan, but without Yuani there to help us through the stress of having to make the last-minute decisions, I don't know what we would've done. She's a miracle worker!We had a great experience working with CW Resorts for our wedding. The venue options are all beautiful, the food was spectacular, and the staff was so friendly.

An all around fabulous experience
We had an afternoon wedding at the Williamsburg Inn. Yuani, Lindsey, Chef Travis and team went above and beyond to make sure the entire event was perfect! They were flexible, friendly and so so helpful from top to bottom. They even helped us plan and host our rehearsal dinner in the garden with three weeks notice (after our other venue cancelled). We cannot recommend this team and venue enough.We had an afternoon wedding at the Williamsburg Inn.

We had our wedding at the Williamsburg Inn, and had the best experience from start to finish!
Our experience with Yuani Valentine and The Williamsburg Inn could not have been better. We feel so lucky to have worked with her and everyone at the Inn. She made our wedding day everything we dreamed of and more, and went above and beyond. Leading up to our wedding Yuani took care of little details, was always in touch, and so easy to talk to. Everyone at the Inn is so kind and accommodating, and I will always have such fond memories of our wedding weekend at the Williamsburg Inn with our family and friends! I wish we could do it again!Our experience with Yuani Valentine and The Williamsburg Inn could not have been better. We feel so lucky to have worked with her and everyone at the Inn.

The wedding of our dreams!
The day after my now husband proposed in Williamsburg, we went into the Inn for a tour of their venue spaces and immediately fell in love. From that very first day through our wedding weekend, we could not have asked for a better experience working with the entire Williamsburg event team. Yuani Valentin went above and beyond every step of the way working with us. If we had a concern, she immediately had a solution. If we had a question, she had an answer. Yuani is a true visionary and made my husband and I feel as if she was planning her own family members wedding when she worked with us. We had the wedding weekend of our dreams in a fairytale location, executed by true professionals. We cannot thank Yuani, Travis (the Executive Chef of the Williamsburg Inn), or Lindsay (Floral Coordinator for Colonial Williamsburg), enough for all they did to make our dream a reality.The day after my now husband proposed in Williamsburg, we went into the Inn for a tour of their venue spaces and immediately fell in love.

The Most Wonderful Experience!
Hands down it was the best decision to host our wedding reception at The Inn. The staff work day in and day out with other couples, but they have this keen ability to make you feel like you are the most special couple they are working with. From every element of the planning process right down to the execution of the reception, we were never let down. We now think of those at the Inn as a part of our family and spend each wedding anniversary right back at the place where it all started! If you want to build memories in a location where you know that each detail will be carefully and thoughtfully handled and also feel like you have a place to visit for the years to come that feels like home, then I highly encourage booking this location.Hands down it was the best decision to host our wedding reception at The Inn.

The Williamsburg Inn Gave Us Our Dream Wedding
Almost three months ago prior to the start of the COVID-19 Pandemic and its ultimate shut down of not only Colonial Williamsburg, but of the United States as a whole, we were able to have the wedding of our dreams at The Williamsburg Inn. Even with all that has happened and was happening before and during our special day the team at Colonial Williamsburg came through for us.
No wedding day is perfect on every account. Neither of us believe that is possible and we went into our day knowing this. There are always the last-minute things that are forgotten or sudden disappointments that you did not expect. And that’s when there isn’t a Global Pandemic breathing down your neck. But the comments we got from all of our guests, family, and friends was simple. “This was perfect, everything was perfect!”. From the Doormen, Valet Parking Attendants, and Custodial Staff to the Cooks, Servers, Bartenders, and Groundskeepers, no problem or fault could be found by those we invited to share in our special day. Everyone stated they felt safe, enthused, taken care of, relaxed, and joyous all weekend.
The staff is incredibly communicative during all phases of the planning and executing of the wedding and reception. Their venues are second to none, and the historical architecture made our special day feel once in a lifetime. If you are looking for a wonderfully elegant, classy, and incredible all in one experience you should look no further than the Williamsburg Inn and it's grounds.

Above and beyond hospitality!
My fiance and I decided to elope after so many plans fell through due to planning a wedding during the pandemic. We are from Northern VA and wanted a location within a few hours from home where we could have a private wedding, just the two of us. We decided on the Williamsburg Inn after reading the history of the hotel and seeing pictures of the grounds. We were not disappointed when we arrived, being greeted by gracious staff and having a look around at the classic luxury of the property. My fiance was in touch with the hotel prior to our arrival to ask about having our private ceremony on the grounds. The desk directed us to Leslie, the GM, who was very generous and accommodating. She answered all of our questions, made sure the staff was aware of our plans, and offered anything she could do to make our time there special. All of the bell, front office and housekeeping staff were friendly and quick to help with any request- big or small. We visited the restaurant for breakfast and lunch while we were there and had drinks on the patio as well- everyone was friendly and offered their congratulations. I also visited the Spa twice which was just a short walk down the path from the hotel. All in all we don't think we could have picked a better place! We can't wait to visit in the warmer months and plan to visit each year as a special celebration of our 2020 wedding :)My fiance and I decided to elope after so many plans fell through due to planning a wedding during the pandemic.

Flawless, amazing experience!
I would highly recommend Colonial Williamsburg Resorts for a venue. We met with Brittany first to look around the Inn to decide on a location and get the contract going. We met with Yuani who coordinated everything up until the ceremony. Both ladies were super friendly and amazing to work with. They responded so quickly to any questions we had! The Inn took care of all of the catering, drinks, and cake and everything was perfect and delicious! The staff was so friendly as well.

Williamsburg Inn - BEST of the Best!
Williamsburg Inn is hands down the absolute best venue in the Williamsburg area! Yuani Valentine is a dream come true in wedding coordination. She was able to suggest and execute things that took the wedding to new level. She treated us like family! She was calm and confident throughout the planning process and wedding day. We absolutely loved working with her!
My daughter had her wedding and reception on Queens Terrace last weekend. I am not exaggerating when I say it was spectacular. Everything went off without a hitch and exceeded our expectations on every level. We used the Inn's internal florist, Lindsay Codekas. The price was better than another local florist, and she was able to completely outdo them! Everything was breathtaking! Lindsay really listened and understood my daughter's vibe and knocked it out of the park!
The food was excellent and the servers were friendly and the epitome of professional at all times. In fact, every staff member that we worked with or ran into at Williamsburg Inn was friendly, helpful, and committed to ensuring we were happy at all times!
I rate this venue and this staff with the highest score! They certainly earned it!Williamsburg Inn is hands down the absolute best venue in the Williamsburg area! Yuani Valentine is a dream come true in wedding coordination. She was able to suggest and execute things that took the wedding to new level. She treated us like family! She was calm and confident throughout the planning process and wedding day. We absolutely loved working with her!
My daughter had her wedding and reception on Queens Terrace last weekend. I am not exaggerating when I say it was spectacular.

Helpful & Responsive. We were treated so well! (Williamsburg Inn)
We had a great time having our wedding at the Williamsburg Inn. We worked with Brittany to get the contract for the venue, and then we met with Yuani to help us coordinate the day of. Both were wonderful in terms of understanding our needs, answering our questions, and providing suggestions. They were very flexible and communicative.
We worked with Yuani a lot, which made our wedding immensely less stressful. She was very calm and so incredibly helpful when it came to getting a timeline and coordinating with the vendors on the day of. We had to move our wedding inside, and we ended up using a different ballroom instead of our original rain backup plan (same room as reception), which was beautiful and a wonderful suprise.
As for the night of accomodations, my husband and I had a wonderful experience. We used the Perry Shaw Hepburn room to get ready (no bathroom), but it happened to be connected to our night of room! The staff came in between the ceremony and the end of reception and set up everything so nicely for us. There was champagne, chocolates, fresh towels, and a personal note. It made us feel so special, and we had such a wonderful experience there. We really hope to come back for an anniversary!
The Inn also did our cake and our dinner. The bar service & specialty cocktail we chose, and everyone commented on how delicious the food was. Not typical or bland, as some event food can be sometimes, but intensely flavorful and felt very healthy and light. The cake was divine as well. Overall such a good experience.We had a great time having our wedding at the Williamsburg Inn.

Flawless, Exquisite, Perfect in Every Way!
I cannot think of a more exquisite wedding reception venue than the Williamsburg Inn! Every detail was perfect for our early spring event, even the weather cooperated!
Our out-of-town guests loved their accommodations in the Griffin Hotel and enjoyed being in Colonial Williamsburg with so much to see and do.
On the big day, guests spilled out of the East Lounge onto the beautiful patio overlooking the well-landscaped grounds during the cocktail hour while being serenaded by the Jamestown Quartet. Dinner and dancing followed in the newly renovated Regency Room.
We worked with Yuani Valentine over a 10-month period to plan every detail of the event. She is knowledgeable and charming, provides great advice, attends to every detail, and honors every request. The event was flawless! Our special thanks to the Chef who created 78 amazingly perfect meals and received rave reviews from our guests. And thanks to the wait staff and bartenders who performed just as you would expect --- competent, professional, and courteous.
Thank you, Williamsburg Inn, for making our special day so memorable!

Perfect Venue
We couldn't be happier with our wedding at the Williamsburg Inn! Yuani Valentine was our event coordinator, and she was amazing to work with every step of the way. We had both our ceremony and reception at the venue. The Regency Room was recently renovated, and the room looks even more stunning and timeless than before. The venue really went above and beyond with every detail. From the ceremony setup, to the food, floral arrangements, cake, table settings, etc. - everything about the day was flawless. We have had so many guests rave about the venue. Thank you to Yuani and the Williamsburg Inn for making this our best day yet!We couldn't be happier with our wedding at the Williamsburg Inn!

Stunning Venue, Wonderful Customer Service
We decided to host our rehearsal dinner at the Williamsburg Inn on December 14th. It was such a magical experience! Yuani Valentine was the person assisting us with scheduling our event, and her customer service and care throughout the process was amazing! Our guests were absolutely awed be the gorgeous lights and Christmas trees on the drive up to the Inn and the elegant decor in the lobby. Our dinner was held in the Goodwin room, and it looked absolutely breathtaking! Our servers were polished and gave us a first class experience and the chef prepared an absolutely delicious, fine-dining meal. Yuani was present throughout the night checking in on our comfort and experience. I would give this entire dinner a 10 star review if I could!We decided to host our rehearsal dinner at the Williamsburg Inn on December 14th. It was such a magical experience!

Elegant 5-Star Venue with Charm and Hospitality (Williamsburg Inn)
Written by Mother of Bride -- Stephanie and Zachary married on 10/27/2018
The Forbes 5-Star Williamsburg Inn provided a truly elegant venue and totally outstanding experience for our daughter's dream-come-true wedding reception! From our initial visit to the Inn in December 2017, the delightful wedding sales and planning team of Brittany Rice and Yuani Valentine helped us make our daughter’s wedding reception the perfect celebration for her most special day! And on Stephanie and Zachary’s wedding day, The Williamsburg Inn really felt like our very own magnificent and charming home. From the warm welcome at front doors of the Inn, to a beautiful sunset cocktail hour in the East Lounge and patio (while the bride and groom enjoyed a private celebration in the Inn’s quaint Library), followed by a gorgeous wedding reception in the Regency Room, topped off with nightcaps in the Lounge, and then finished with a lovely suite for the newlyweds…5-STAR WOW!!! Our guests raved about the food and drinks, but most importantly, about the gracious service and charming elegance (and fun!) of the wedding celebration. My husband and I greatly appreciated the Inn's complete wedding package that included the cocktail hour with appetizers, three course dinner, open bar, personalized wedding cake, champagne toast, and two nights complimentary stay at the Inn! And the best surprise was no surprise with the final bill, as it was exactly what we had planned. The Inn’s list of Preferred Vendors was also very helpful in finding top-notch vendors who provided fabulous wedding services. We are so grateful for Yuani Valentine (Manager of Weddings & Special Events), who is always a total joy to work with and makes wedding planning fun and worry-free. Yuani’s great depth of wedding planning experience is invaluable for helping her clients design their perfect celebration…and that she does with grace and style and ease!Written by Mother of Bride -- Stephanie and Zachary married on 10/27/2018

Magnificent Venue (Williamsburg Inn)
We had our ceremony on the Queen’s Lawn, cocktail hour on the Queen’s Terrace/East Lounge, and dinner + dancing in the Regency Room of the Williamsburg Inn. We also had our rehearsals dinner and post-wedding breakfast at the Lodge. The venue was stunning; everything was so beautiful. The absolute best part was getting to work with Yuani Valentine (the CW hotels event planner). She has a very charismatic personality and made the whole process so much fun. I could not have picked a better place to get married!We had our ceremony on the Queen’s Lawn, cocktail hour on the Queen’s Terrace/East Lounge, and dinner + dancing in the Regency Room of the Williamsburg Inn.

Classy, Professional, & Amazing
We are so glad that we went with Colonial Williamsburg for our wedding! Yuani was an absolute pleasure to work with, she is a real pro at what she does. She put us at ease throughout the entire process and answered all of our questions in a timely manner. Our guests were treated with the first class experience that you would expect from a well-regarded organization.
The Woodlands was an amazing venue. The courtyard outside was perfect for cocktail hour and the room upstairs fit 160 people comfortably. We highly recommended this location.We are so glad that we went with Colonial Williamsburg for our wedding! Yuani was an absolute pleasure to work with, she is a real pro at what she does.

We just had the most beautiful wedding at the Williamsburg Inn! Yuani Valentine was our wedding coordinator and did an amazing job making our day perfect! She helped execute every little detail perfectly and even helped with things we didn’t even think about. Their florist created an amazing and beautiful dinner table for our guests of 40 and our cake and bouquets matched with perfect elegance. The food was incredible and everyone was in awe with how beautiful the venue was overall. We had our ceremony outside of the East Lounge in the queens garden then dinner in the East Lounge.
Thank you Yuani for making our day perfect.We just had the most beautiful wedding at the Williamsburg Inn! Yuani Valentine was our wedding coordinator and did an amazing job making our day perfect!
