100% recommend this place as a wedding venue for no more than 150 people…read more The venue: My wedding had about 135 and seemed like the perfect number. Also had my wedding in middle November which was a hit or miss on weather but was in the 50s, perfect weather for our little S'mores setup. And Birkby still had trees with leaves that fell late so we still had a variety of fall colors still in the backdrop. Birkby has such a homey comfortable feeling with the cottage house, gazebo and other garden space, and the reception tent. The tent, with the lightings, is so beautiful. When I asked a cousin for wedding pictures, she had about 15 of just the lighting. Good thing we had an actual photographer! The house has several rooms for the cocktail hour for the guestbook, gifts, and other neat hangout spots as well as a pair of restrooms. There are another pair of restrooms by the tent. The upstairs has a bridal and grooms suite. Bridal suite is large and my wife and her ladies loved it. The grooms suite is cozy with a TV, couch, and fridge--all you really need. The 2nd floor also has two porches that look out to the rest of the venue. Great photo ops! Coordinators: Had the viewing with Carleigh--absolutely fantastic and super friendly and decided to go with her and Kristin (Simply Royal Events) for our wedding coordinators. It felt like a huge advantage having them coordinate since they knew the place inside and out and knew most, if not all, of our vendors. They were quick to respond and adjust to all of our last minute changes and updates. They were all over the place (in the best way possible) from beginning to end as in they had everything organized and made sure people/things were in place and yet were also very available for any questions or comments I or the bride had the day of. The wedding transitions happened so swiftly that I hardly saw any of it happen. The ceremony chairs were swept off, space heaters were set up, the firepit and S'mores layout was done, and off I went through a line of sparklers. Vendors: The Birkby House has an open house every spring and invites their preferred caterer and vendors. Definitely check this out if you are interested in or planning on having an event/wedding at Birkby. There are a lot of local vendors present, some who don't really have the publicity as other vendors that may have hundreds of reviews. For example, we went with a local photographer Steve and Bernadette Dalgetty and even though we haven't received the pictures yet, they were such a charm to work with. We did go with their partner caterer Tuskies and that couldn't have gone any better. The tasting was a little unconventional. We basically just had dinner at their restaurant with a $100 tab so we couldn't really try specific items on their wedding menu but we tried the filet mignon and branzino dishes that best replicated the wedding entrees. We absolutely loved the filet mignon and this chocolate martini (which we added to our wedding) but the branzino was a bit dry so we actually considered removing the fish option but we were glad we didn't. ALL the food during our wedding was phenomenal from hor d'oeurves to entrees--best wedding food ever (said no one ever but I'm serious, Tuskies was amazing!) Not only was the food great but also Neal was so fun and easy to work with. They also allowed us to bring our own alcohol saving in some costs. I truly think the triple threat of Neal, Carleigh, and Kristin was the reason why my wedding went so smoothly or at least appeared like it ran smoothly haha. Misc: Other perks to the venue, there's a large public parking lot behind the venue that is really only used as a commuter lot during the week so it was fully available for guests. It's in downtown Leesburg so it's a great spot to check out a local bar if you come early. But speaking of downtown.. The con: The only negative thing about the venue is because it's in downtown Leesburg near residents, there was one resident who complained and called the cops multiple times. There's a noise curfew at 10pm which is when the wedding ends anyway but he complained well before 9pm. I'm sure this happens quite often, it has to being in such a residential area and while it was annoying having to deal with a disgruntled neighbor on your wedding night, the cops really seemed to care less. The cops said as long as the coordinators had the permit (which they did), the noise was fine.

The Middleburg Community Center was first conceived in 1946 and after a flurry of fund raising,…read moreconstruction commenced and the building was completed in 1948. The facility has hosted many activities over the years and is rented out for weddings, private parties, seminars, meetings, and more. In years past, I've spent part of a Sunday manning a booth at a particular show that is held every year in this building. It's a neat building from a historical perspective - but it has one issue - the building does not do real well at cooling. When you pack a lot of people into an old building like this - all those folks sucking oxygen combined with the lack of air flow - really makes the place uncomfortable. It's even worse - on a day like today - where you have a sudden warm snap!

My only feedback is that the place needs a little refresh, especially the bathrooms. But overall - pricing is extremely reasonable and we would use again if we needed a big space again!!

She literally can make anything happen and works well with all venders (caterer, coordinators etc) I fell in love with this venue when I came for a wedding and now it is MY VENUE The space is huge and grand, everything is already so elegant you don't need to add too much to it. They allow you to cricket things onto their mirrors as long as it's removed during clean up afterwards. You have your pick of rooms to use, use it all!!!! You pay for it! The dressing rooms upstairs allows for space for the groomsmen (1), bridesmaids (3), family (1) and additional bathrooms and showers (bring your own towels) in the space! There's a balcony for a hidden dj if you'd like. But also for a bouquet toss, or just admiring your wedding and guests. The arch for the ceremony is already there and ready, it's beautiful even without flowers. Truly a beautiful space, plenty of parking for about 150 guests. I am so so happy it's my wedding venue in May!

The one and only gripe that I have is that telephone communication leaves something to be desired. Sometimes, I need to talk to a person instead of relying on email. Overall, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND BRICKS 4 KIDZ!!!

In a world where trampoline parks charge $20+ a kid for an hour, this place feels like a miracle. It was pretty crowded, but they keep a good flow going on the floor, good music, and a great family friendly atmosphere. They have the little walker/roller carts for children to learn on, but fair warning they do run out so get there early or you might be waiting. You might think that with such a cheap entry fee they make up the money on concessions, but nope. A bottle of water is still only $1 here. Honestly, Bush Tabernacle seems like a community service project gone right and just what parents of cabin-fevered kids need in this area. I hadn't skated it like 20 years and somehow picked it right back up, and it was fun for me too. In addition to the skating rink, they also have a small free play game area where kids can take a break with Fortnite, Rocket League, etc., as well as two air hockey tables and a ping pong table. There's a large area with tables for renting out for parties, too. I was pleasantly surprised by this place, and the whole family wants to come back soon.
