A venue for creative hearts
A venue for creative heartsRassawek Vineyard is a charming and versatile wedding venue located in Goochland County, Virginia. Over the past 20 years, Rassawek has transformed from just breathtaking landscapes to an exceptional event venue studded with charming barns, rustic cabins, train cars, a covered bridge and many other one-of-a-kind features. All of the structures on the property were saved from demolition, moved to the property, repurposed and rebuilt onsite to create one of the most unique wedding venues in the area. Rassawek is conveniently located in between Charlottesville and Richmond and offers multiple cabins and repurposed train cars to host out-of-town guests. An expansive venue with a mix of rolling hills, ponds, and forest, Rassawek offers three different event spaces which cover a range of budgets and wedding sizes. The Hilltop is the perfect location for couples looking for a smaller wedding. This budget friendly option can hold up to 50 guests and features a gazebo ceremony location overlooking rolling hills and a charming white barn for the reception. The Cherokee package is nestled amongst the Chardonnay vineyard and includes a stunning waterfront ceremony site, quaint greenhouse perfect for cocktail hour, and a 40 x 60 peak pole tent overlooking the water for your reception space. Hosting up to 125 guests, this location offers picturesque views while enjoying the beautiful outdoors. The newest venue on the property, The Pavilion, is located near our train station overlooking the hills of the Piedmont. This 7,000 square foot building boasts large glass windows and doors giving you almost 360 views of the surrounding landscape. Step just outside of the doors and enjoy a cocktail hour on 4,000 square feet of brick patio. The pavilion is nestled in between two historic buildings relocated from the original Short Pump. Enjoy a signature cocktail out of the garage bar or serve guests ice cream sandwiches from the quaint country grocery store. Hosting up to 200 guests, this space is our largest and most unique venue on the property. At Rassawek, the restored cabins and train cars are what set us apart. With the weekend package add on option, couples get exclusive use of the entire property as well as overnight stays in our cabins and converted train cars that can accommodate 25 guests. With endless possibilities, Rassawek is truly a hidden gem. From an intimate barn wedding to waterfront views from under our large tent to a glass pavilion, our goal is to make your wedding the most unique and memorable experience possible.
