Historic Rosemont Manor named Top Wedding Vendor by Va Living Magazine

Jan. 31, 2013 - PRLog -- Historic Rosemont Manor in Berryville, VA has been named as a 2013 Top Wedding Vendor by Virginia Living Magazine.  This distinction is awarded to wedding providers who have exemplified excellence, professionalism, and impeccable customer service in the wedding industry.

"We are pleased to be recognized by Virginia Living Magazine for the services we provide to our brides in the greater Northern Virginia area," says Director of Communications, Suzanne Pearson. "Virginia Living is a wonderful publication that features the best that the Commonwealth of Virginia has to offer, and we are honored to be among the elite group selected."

According to the magazine's website, www.virginialiving.com, "Virginia Living celebrates all things Virginia—from its people and places, to its deep history and traditions. The highest quality, most-widely read lifestyle magazine in the state, Virginia Living’s combination of smart, engaging stories and stunning photography and art makes it a must-read for anyone interested in the Commonwealth.

Publisher John-Lawrence Smith conceived of Virginia Living while relaxing with his dog Cutty on the James River one beautiful June day in 2002, and the premiere issue was published on October 31, 2002. The glossy, upscale lifestyle magazine has been a big hit in the state, with a readership of over 500,000.

Virginia Living publishes six bimonthly issues per year, plus two bonus special issues: Medicine & Wellness in March and Best of Virginia in May, in addition to five special supplements: Weddings, State of Education, Dental Care, Law and Hospitals & Health Care."

According to Historic Rosemont Manor owner, William Genda, the 2013 award from Virginia Living Magazine is one of several recent accolades that the Northern Virginia wedding venue has received.  "We just also received word that we have been honored by WeddingWire.com for the second year running, receiving their highly coveted Bride's Choice Award," says Genda. "Since opening our doors in late 2010 and having our first wedding in January of 2011, we have been blessed to see tremendous growth and success as a premier venue for couples looking for a destination wedding in Virginia."

Rosemont was once home to Virginia Governor and US Senator Harry F. Byrd, Sr. and became a respite to Byrd's connections in D.C., including several US Presidents, high ranking military officials, and other dignitaries.  The 200 year old manor has been fully restored and now hosts not only beautiful manor house weddings, but also teas, private events, and overnight B&B guests.
