At the end of June 2025, my daughter held her wedding reception at Historic Jasmine. (We had purchased the Weekend Destination package, so my daughter and MANY of her friends enjoyed overnights at Historic Jasmine on Friday and Saturday with the main event held on Saturday.) If I could rate Historic Jasmine with 100 stars I would! From Day One of inquiring about Historic Jasmine, its manager, Ashton, was absolutely FANTASTIC! He remained that way throughout the ENTIRETY of the process as well as AFTERWARDS! Ashton's replies were ALWAYS incredibly prompt and thorough. He picked up on "implied tasks" and provided responses to those as well. He provided input to questions I asked that had nothing to do with Historic Jasmine but with weddings and receptions in general. He spent plenty of time with my daughter and me working out the details. He was ALWAYS willing to help and he always did! Ashton is the face of this family-run business. His fine character and stellar attitude epitomized that of his mom, dad, and brother who work so diligently behind the scenes, most often without notice. I am not exaggerating when I say, "The entire family is AMAZING, truly amazing!" (When I met the dad and brother, I felt as if I were speaking with Ashton! :)) Without doubt, Historic Jasmine reflects this family's time, effort, and attention to create a PHENOMENAL venue! It is a STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL place, outside and inside! GORGEOUS, VIBRANT landscaping surrounded by woods outside - historical and nostalgic decor inside mixed with modern conveniences (to include abundant bathrooms) - are at the ready to warmly welcome guests. Our caterer - Edwards Catering - was thrilled to learn we had contracted with Historic Jasmine. He has catered there for more than 15 years and greatly appreciates its setup for his services. Speaking of food, I am reminded that my daughter and her friends were pleasantly surprised to find coffee and breakfast items awaiting them in the kitchen in the morning - we did not know such was part of the weekend package so they were thrilled to discover such! I could go on and on about our positive experiences with Historic Jasmine! I will summarize by saying, in my opinion, having checked out a plethora of venues, Historic Jasmine was and is THE ABSOLUTE BEST VENUE! Without question, it is a reflection of the family who runs it, also THE ABSOLUTE BEST!

Whatever you desire, we can make it happen!

Beautiful, historic home at Open Air. The grounds and large, old trees make this venue such a beautiful backdrop. And it's so Virginia! Use of house, barn, and, of course, the back yard with large brick patio and tent make this perfect for any size gathering. Michelle, Steve, and Patti have been so accommodating and have wonderful, helpful ideas for the space. Grateful we have a few extra days to set up for our wedding and don't have to hurry to break the reception all down. It has been a pleasure to work with the Open Air staff.

I truly cannot recommend a better wedding venue and the folks who run it! The Maine allows for so much flexibility for your special day across how the venue spaces can be utilized. We hired the Maine for our wedding day coordination as well as used one of their packages and could not recommend it more. McKenzie was the sweetest person to work with and was on top of everything, she made us feel calm going into our wedding day! Aside from the service they provided, all the spaces used are clean, thoughtfully decorated, and useful. We especially loved the getting ready rooms and all the outdoor, covered patios. We hope we get to visit the Maine as wedding guests in the future (if we can convince our friends)! Photos by our photography, Tiffany, at Rohrback Studios :)
