Where couples get married in Virginia Beach

Beachfront resort ballrooms and rooftop terraces along the boardwalk, with the Atlantic as the backdrop.

Sandbridge

Quiet dune-backed beach houses and private oceanfront rentals south of the main resort strip.

Bayfront lighthouses, dunes, and waterfront event spaces where the bay meets the ocean.

Norfolk waterfront

Historic downtown venues and harborfront event spaces a short drive across Hampton Roads.

When to book in Virginia Beach

Late spring (May–June) and early fall (September–October) are Virginia Beach's sweet spot: warm enough for the beach, before peak summer tourist crowds and pricing hit the Oceanfront. Peak summer (July–August) means the busiest, most expensive dates and tightest vendor availability; late summer into early fall also carries hurricane-season risk, so couples marrying then should ask vendors about backup and rain plans. Book venue and photographer 10–12 months out for a peak-season Saturday.

Common questions

Virginia Beach sits at a moderate cost level with an oceanfront-resort premium. Expect Oceanfront ballrooms and beachfront venues to price higher than inland Hampton Roads options. Guest count and how close to the water you get married are the biggest levers. The ranges above are a starting point, and Our Day negotiates exclusive rates on your behalf.
