When to book in Northern Virginia

Spring (April–June) and fall (September–October) are Northern Virginia's peak.

Humid mid-summer and January–February open up better availability and rates if you're flexible on the date.

Common questions

How much does a wedding cost in Northern Virginia?

Northern Virginia is one of the higher-cost markets in our coverage area. Proximity to DC, high demand, and premium venues like Loudoun vineyards push totals above the regional average, with the venue and catering driving well over half the total. The ranges above are a starting point, and Our Day negotiates exclusive rates on your behalf.

When should I book Northern Virginia wedding vendors?

For a peak spring or fall Saturday, book the venue and photographer 12–15 months ahead. Popular Loudoun wine-country venues and top-tier hotel ballrooms sell out even further out. The rest of the team follows in the 6–9 month window. Off-season and weekday dates are far easier to book and often cheaper.
