The venue also set up the indoor tables and chairs before we arrived at the space, which was a huge help before we started decorating! Schoug, the venue coordinator, was amazing! She was helpful throughout the whole day, and was so kind to the bride, groom and their family. Would definitely recommend this venue for future events and weddings! The bridal suite was beautiful! The room had a personal bathroom, 2 sinks, and a getting ready area with 4 mirrors, 4 hangers for the dresses, and 4 high table chairs. It was the perfect space for the bridal party to get ready for the big day.

My husband I hosted our post wedding celebration here…read morehttp://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/hprs/dranesville.htm on 4/18/15. Zack (who showed me the property and set up the reservation) and Cindy (who was on-site manager the day of the event) were very easy to work with. Since, the property is managed by Fairfax County; I never got the feeling that I was being upsold. The space itself has both pros and cons. The cons of the space is that is split into several small to medium sized rooms making it difficult to host a typical style reception (our guests stayed and gravitated outside so we hardly needed the indoor space). You have to bring down the chairs and tables from the top of the stairs (the tables and chairs are included in your rental costs). The Dranesville Tavern only has a cold kitchen (so, if you'd like an event where the cater(ers) are cooking something fresh at your party site this is not the location for you). You must have a license catering (no on-site cooking from the hosts is permitted). You have to pay (and give yourself additional time) to obtain an ABC license from the state of VA. The pros are the outdoor space includes 2 large covered decks on either side of the property. Our party was able to set out the chairs and tables on the deck and our guests brought their food from the buffet (set up in one of the rooms inside). If you're looking for a place with charm the Dranesville Tavern is a nice mixture. It is historic without being small (believe it can hold up to 80 people). It also has a nice rustic feel to it. The exterior of the buliding looked nice in our pictures. The Dranesville Tavern gives you an rain plan. Although we only used the indoor space for a place to store gifts, drinks and the buffet; it was nice to know had it rained that we could still host our guests comfortably. The lawns at the Dranesville Tavern are large and surround the property and although this property is located off a busy road it feels very private. Our party had several lawn games for people to enjoy (making the lawns even more pleasant place to spend an afternoon). There is ample parking (at no additional cost) located next to the property. In a nutshell for the cost and space, if you're looking for a place that feels special without the upcharge; I would suggest looking at the Dranesville Tavern.

It's run by Fairfax County and the staff were easy to work with and helpful as we planned our event. The only drawback to the building is that there isn't one large room like most event spaces. But there is a nice porch that over looks a beautiful lawn. There are multiple good sized rooms where you can set up tables for food and seating on both floors. Overall given the reasonable cost, good proximity to Nova/DC, lovely historic building, and abundant parking it was a choice and I would recommend it for small to medium gatherings (30-60 people), particularly in the spring and fall.

If you get married there, you receive a membership from them We had our wedding at the Atrium and I'm grateful to my colleague who told me about this beautiful venue. They have all the information to start online and their team in charge of events is responsive and will send you all the files and pricing. When you schedule a visit, make sure to schedule it early enough, this place is so popular that we could barely get a window to visit and got lucky enough to grab someone's cancellation. We worked with Esther and she was absolutely fantastic to work with. Her responses are on time, she sends out the reminders and she is such a radiant and positive person, we loved her! Esther also helped us with all unique requests and accommodations and we appreciated all her support. Their in-house caterer was also great, we were pleasantly surprised with pricing for 2023 and we received quotes from over 30+ venues in the area. The quality of the food was very good too.
