ONE HAPPY FAMILY
My family worked with City View Venues to celebrate our parents' 50th wedding anniversary. Planning for the event was detailed and well-organized and the City View team worked with us every step of the way. The food was great, the service was top notch and the venue was fantastic.
Our parents felt celebrated and everyone had a wonderful time. It has left me trying to come up with the next big life event to celebrate in the same manner in the near future!
Many thanks to the City View team!

ONE HAPPY CLIENT
I contacted City View Venue and I immediately felt as if I had known them forever. Tanya and her staff did a wonderful job of providing a delicious meal for our employees. They came in, set up, served and cleaned up everything once we were done. We had plenty of food for everyone to enjoy and we definitely enjoyed it!

ONE HAPPY MOM
What a day our daughter’s wedding was! Terrace View for the ceremony was perfect! It fit our 200 guests leaving a long aisle to admire the wedding party and the bride and her daddy as they made it to the “alter.” Great pictures were taken on the terrace which gave a European feel in downtown Lynchburg. The views from City View and the space for the reception fit our needs to a “T.”
