FAQ
Every couple has questions. Here are the ones we hear most — answered honestly and directly.
No — and this surprises most couples who assume "all-inclusive" means "premium markup." In reality, when you hire 15 separate vendors, you're paying for each vendor's marketing, overhead, travel, and profit margin separately.
When everything is under one roof with one team, you eliminate all of that redundancy. The result is a more efficient, more cohesive experience for the same or often better overall value. You also avoid the hidden costs of coordinating between vendors — the confusion, the gaps, the last-minute vendor changes.
Packages start at $5,000 for intimate elopement ceremonies and average around $50,000 all-in for our most popular full-weekend packages — with everything included: planning, design, food, bar, entertainment, photography, and lodging.
We don't believe in quote games. After your tour, one of our design consultants will build a fully customized proposal with a complete, itemized price. You'll know the full number before you ever sign anything.
Everything. Seriously. Our packages include:
Planning & Coordination — full planning, milestone management, invitations, RSVP management, day-of coordination
Design & Décor — florals, table settings, signage, custom floor plan, décor installation
Food & Bar — welcome party, rehearsal dinner, cocktail hour, full reception dinner, open bar, wedding cake
Entertainment — DJ, emcee, intelligent lighting, special effects, live-streaming
Photo & Production — engagement session, full-day photography, photo booth, heirloom memory movie
Lodging — 11 on-site suites for up to 44 guests, with breakfast and lunch included
Transportation — shuttle services and parking coordination
Absolutely — this is the whole point. When you're not managing vendor contracts, comparing quotes, and coordinating logistics, you have more creative energy for the personal elements that make your day uniquely yours.
We handle the logistics. You focus on what matters: the special traditions, the meaningful surprises, the personal touches that reflect your story. Every wedding at Zion Springs is different — because every couple is different.
Professional sports teams teach us the answer: having the "best" player at every position doesn't guarantee a championship. Cohesive teamwork does.
When vendors work together under one roof with one shared vision and years of coordinating together, the result is a day where everything connects seamlessly — the music cues the photo, the lighting complements the florals, the meal timing flows naturally into the reception. Individual stars create coordination gaps. Our team doesn't have those.
Most couples book 12 to 18 months out. Popular dates — especially Saturday evenings in spring, fall, and early summer — fill quickly and often a year or more in advance.
If you have a specific date in mind, the best thing you can do is schedule a tour soon. We'll be honest with you about availability and help you lock in the right date before it's gone.
Yes! We love intimate ceremonies. Our elopement packages start at $5,000 and offer a beautifully tailored experience for couples who want something meaningful without the full production.
Whether it's just the two of you or a close circle of 20, we bring the same care and quality to every ceremony size.
Our ceremony and reception spaces comfortably accommodate up to 300 guests for the celebration.
For on-site lodging, we have 11 suites that sleep up to 44 guests right here on the estate. Our team also assists with coordinating off-site accommodations for larger wedding parties.
Zion Springs is designed as a fully all-inclusive experience. Our team handles everything — and that's by design, not restriction. Our vendors know each other, our estate, and our standards. That shared familiarity is what makes the day feel seamless.
If there's something specific and meaningful to you — a family member who's a florist, a beloved officiant — let's talk. We're always willing to have a conversation about what matters most to you.
Zion Springs is located in Hamilton, Virginia — in the heart of beautiful Loudoun County wine country. We're approximately 45 minutes from Washington, D.C. and Dulles International Airport.
The estate's rural setting provides total privacy while remaining easily accessible for guests traveling from the DC Metro area and beyond.
Yes. Our team coordinates on-site parking and shuttle services to ensure guests arrive and depart safely and conveniently. This is especially valuable for evening receptions where guests want to enjoy the open bar without worrying about driving.
For guests staying on-site, of course, there's no commute at all — just a short walk to their suite.
Our tours are about 30 minutes and completely relaxed. You'll walk the full estate — ceremony spaces, reception hall, gardens, suites — and get a real feel for the property.
You'll meet key members of our team, and we'll learn about your vision for your wedding. After the tour, we'll put together a fully customized proposal — no pressure, no obligation, just real numbers and a real plan.
