Historic Rosemont Manor

"My husband Nicolas and I were married at the Historic Rosemont Manor September 1st, 2023. Bill was the first person we met and he immediately sold my husband off of the history of the manor alone. Each room was named after someone who stayed in the room. And in the conference center there are cases of items found on the grounds. Bill was personable and realistic with every aspect of the planning. We chose to stay for 2 nights with our immediate family and bridal party and it was the best 2 days of my life. Everything was flawless, the vibe the entire time was unmatched and all the staff including our wedding planner Sarah made our wedding weekend something I’ll never forget. The catering required for the weekend through celebrations was AMAZING. 10/10 recommend. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with our choice of venue. We will be back to visit this beautiful place!"

"My first tea! Perhaps not my last… :) I think what made the experience so pleasant besides the yummy food, great company, and tea, was the young girl pouring our tea. I admired how she kept her smile the whole service, very attentive, and so kind. I couldn’t imagine the pressure. Thank you Stella."

"I would like to start this review that the venue itself is beautiful, although it is on the pricier side. I originally booked Historic Rosemont Manor for a wedding date in 2020 (paid in full by then), but then COVID hit and I needed to postpone the wedding. I was informed by the venue that I would be allowed to have any wedding date as long as it was a weekday, or within 120 days for a weekend date. I am in the military and this provided some frustration with the inability to really plan for a wedding date in a normal timeline. After two deployments, I finally was able to determine a date with Rosemont. I am grateful I was able to have my wedding without losing the money I paid for the venue and the venue-provided wedding planner. I was not given a new contract until I asked multiple times, and it took them 17 days to provide a contract. This new contract included a “Non-disparagement” clause, which by definition is when a contract prohibits a party from leaving a negative review for the performance of services rendered. They never asked for the contract back, so I never ended up signing it, leaving me with a 2-year old contract that did not have this restriction. On top of booking the property as the venue, Rosemont requires use of their wedding planning services (an additional fee). Knowing I was going to be deployed prior to my 2020 wedding, I purchased the “Gold Package” (top package they offered, very expensive) which included “Partial Planning + 180-Day wedding coordination.” The amount of wedding planning help I received was minimal, and was only provided after persistently asking questions for help. I was only given a handful of planning meetings and the Wedding Planner was so hard to get a hold of and seemed like every other thing he had going on was more important than helping plan my wedding; he did have medical issues at some point, which I sympathize with, but the venue could have easily provided a different wedding planner to ensure my wedding was not impacted by a single individual having medical problems. On top of being hard to get a hold of, the wedding planner did a very poor job of retaining information that I gave him, this ranged from answering his questions to just informing him of specific details; this became incredibly frustrating to continuously have to repeat myself even though he had the information in writing via our email discussions. Due to the difficulties I ran into with the wedding planner, I had to hire a second one. It was night and day on what services she provided vs what I had been getting up to this point. She was considered the “secondary” planner but she was doing all of the planning and was the only thing that kept me sane while trying to work with Rosemont's wedding planner. The venue also charged a fee for every small addition. They charge for day-of lunch, even if you’re getting it delivered; I also only brought the alcohol day of, and they wanted to charge $500 due to the "increase of liability coverage placed on Rosemont by [their] insurance company” I discussed this with some of the other vendors and they had never heard of someone doing this. All decoration was a fee and they did not provide people to put the decor together even when I had provided all of the pieces; my second wedding planner and my family were the ones that set everything up. Altogether, although Historic Rosemont Manor is beautiful, I would not recommend this venue to anyone looking to have a wedding in Berryville, VA. I would also actively warn against using their wedding planning services due to the terrible experience I had with them."

"Rosemont Manor is my absolute favorite place for Afternoon Tea. The staff is so welcoming, the tea & food are amazing quality and the Manor itself offers a great, historic charm. Whether it's for a general public tea or one of the themed teas (Alice in Wonderland, Halloween, Christmas, Clue, Downtown Abbey, etc) you will have a memorable experience!"
