The Lesner Inn

Set where the Lynnhaven River meets Chesapeake Bay, The Lesner Inn offers waterfront spaces for weddings, private celebrations and corporate gatherings in Virginia Beach. Organisers can choose between the larger Lesner Hall and Sunset Deck, or the more intimate Waterside Deck, with the option to hire the whole building for a private event. Indoor and outdoor settings give hosts room to plan a ceremony, reception, seated meal or cocktail-style occasion around the views and the feel they want.

The spaces suit events of different sizes. Lesner Hall and the Sunset Deck can accommodate up to 200 guests for a seated reception or 300 for a cocktail event, while the Waterside Deck is suited to smaller gatherings. The venue's wedding packages bring together room hire, dining and drinks, table essentials and support from a dedicated sales manager. Food is prepared in-house, with menu formats including plated dinners, buffets and food stations. Couples can also ask about day-of coordination and design and planning support, available as additions for weddings held at the venue.

Beyond weddings, The Lesner Inn welcomes events such as birthdays, anniversaries, rehearsal dinners, graduation celebrations, retirement parties, showers, holiday parties, military functions and company socials. Its team can help organisers with event details, menus and venue-provided décor, while on-site parking adds convenience for guests. With waterfront scenery, flexible room options and event support under one roof, it provides a setting for both personal milestones and business occasions.
