Willow Grove offers the unusual opportunity to experience the elegant yet unfussy life of the rural gentry"--Washingtonian

"Our wedding weekend was a smashing success. Beautiful Willow Grove has touched our hearts for a lifetime.--Debbie

"Our wedding was like a fairytale: totally and completely perfect."--Marlea

The moment you arrive and take a deep breath of clean country air, you'll relax. The hectic and frantic workaday world will seem eons away. Willow Grove's magnificent rural setting and deliberate low-keyed lifestyle will both feast your eyes and refresh your spirit.

Everything here is designed to provide a memory of Southern hospitality and prepare you to begin your wedding weekend refreshed. You'll find a tranquil hunt-country atmosphere enhanced by seductive vistas of lush woodlands, sunlit fields, and gentle vales. Stroll through our verdant pastures. Spot a white-tailed deer in the meadow. Watch the wild geese on the pond. Your stress will seem to flow into our quiet streams.

Gather with your friends and family for a quiet drink in Clark's Tavern, a cozy 18th century English pub with a warm club-like atmosphere. Or meet them on the verandah which overlooks the Victorian gardens. Then listen to Gershwin and Cole Porter as you enjoy a delicious dinner in one of our two dining rooms. The Jefferson Library is an intimate space that is ideal for small groups while the Dolley Madison Dining Room offers the ultimate in Federal elegance for larger parties. Both offer expansive views of the Virginia countryside.

Whatever your choice, you'll find delectable food, beautiful presentations, delightful and responsive service, and a unique ambiance. Willow Grove melds each and every element into a complete and harmonious whole. Professional service that is cordial and warm but never intrusive. Superb regional cuisine that makes the most out of Virginia's bounty. Lavish amenities that harken to a quieter, more sensitive time.

At day's end, sip a mint julep on your private verandah and then settle into an antiques-filled room where you'll find the utmost in luxury, comfort and privacy. Take a coconut milk bath and relax the wedding jitters away. Then climb into your triple-sheeted poster bed piled high with vintage linens and heirloom quilts. Snuggle up with down pillows. Dream about the morrow.

When you awaken, you'll find a newspaper and pot of freshly brewed coffee outside your door. Meander to breakfast at your leisure or have it served in your room. Then spend the rest of the morning primping and relaxing as we prepare every last detail of your special day. Savor every glorious minute.

Dance the night away and then meet your groom in front of a glowing fireplace. Enjoy a glass of champagne in your double whirlpool as you reminisce about the day. Cap off a perfect weekend with a brunch for your family and friends.
