Imagine exchanging vows on the edge of the Potomac River, surrounded by the gentle sounds of nature and the timeless beauty of a 15-century Tuscany castle. Graycliff Retreat isn’t just a "big castle"—it’s a private sanctuary where unmatched luxury, elegance, and intimacy come together.
When you choose Graycliff, you’re not rushing in and out of a single-day rental. Instead, you and your closest loved ones have the entire property for the whole weekend. From Friday’s welcome gathering to Sunday’s farewell brunch, every moment unfolds at your own pace.
The castle itself is a masterpiece—soaring above the Potomac and designed for celebration, quiet corners for reflection, and accommodations that let you wake up surrounded by the people who mean the most. Outdoors, infinity views of the river and open skies create a natural backdrop that feels both serene and majestic.
It’s more than a wedding—it’s an immersive experience where privacy is honored, laughter fills the halls, and love is celebrated without limits. With Graycliff Retreat, you don’t just book a retreat; you claim a full weekend of unforgettable memories with your inner circle.
