Wedding Venue Ideas in Norfolk VA

Known as the hub of the American Navy, Norfolk comprises the metropolitan areas of Hampton Roads, Chesapeake, Newport News, and Virginia Beach as well. With such proximity to the beach, industrial areas, and Washington DC, this area has seen a relative population explosion in recent years due to it becoming significantly safer.

A bit mysterious but located on the top floor of a high rise downtown, this venue caters to smaller weddings.

Add ons can include a caricature artist, balloon artist, private chef, photographer, and private musicians. The panoramic views are stunning of the surrounding area.
