Citizen Burger Bar
The perfect spot to grab a burger and a beer on the downtown mall.
Tavola
An intimate, lively neighborhood Italian restaurant located in the charming Belmont district of Charlottesville.
Brazos Tacos
Brazos Tacos is the go-to taco joint for Charlottesville locals in-the-know. The menu will make your mouth water… and want to try every single taco on there.
Michie Tavern
A Virginia Historic Landmark located ½ mile below Jefferson’s Monticello, accommodated travelers with food, drink and lodging more than 200 years ago. Servers in period attire offer bountiful Colonial Midday Fare.
The Flat
This little hole-in-the-wall (literally) may look unassuming, but it serves up authentic, made-to-order French crepes that will immediately transport you to France. And if you’re having trouble deciding between the extensive sweet and savory options, just remember, the Nutella-banana-strawberry combo will never let you down.
The Shebeen
Another favorite. Tucked into an unassuming strip mall, the Shebeen is a South African inspired pub near downtown Charlottesville.
Carter Mountain Orchard
Three words: apple cider donuts, but if you do don't fill up too much. These little beauties will be involved in the wedding festivities.
Thomas Jefferson's Monticello
The mountaintop home of Thomas Jefferson, third president of the United States and author of the Declaration of Independence.
Charlottesville Historic Downtown Mall
The Downtown Mall in Charlottesville, Virginia is one of the longest pedestrian malls in the United States.
In order to allow all guests, including parents, an evening of relaxation we have chosen for our wedding day to be an adult only occasion. We hope this advance notice means you are still able to share our big day and will enjoy having the evening off!
We understand that some of you may be extending this trip into a family vacation and will travel with your kids to Charlottesville as a part of that. We have a highly recommended option for childcare, Local Nanny Network, for infants up to school age children. They provide nannies during the wedding, or any other parts of the weekend you may need childcare, at the hotel. There are even options to group children together, to help split some of the costs.
All of their nannies are CPR certified, background checked and have years of childcare experience. Their profiles are on the website for you to view as well! The nannies will arrive in uniform equipped with books, board games, coloring activities and other toys to engage the children during the event.

*If you've booked a 'wedding hotel' outside the "room block", please let Kim know if you plan to use the shuttle so she can estimate the shuttle needs.*
Keswick Vineyards is 15.9 miles away from the room block hotels and takes about 20-30 minutes to drive to. There is ample parking at the vineyard and guests can feel free to drive or follow the shuttle with their car.
