Being voted among the Best Wedding Rentals in Coastal Virginia is an honor we’re incredibly proud to share. Waterford has officially been named the 2027 Overall Gold winner for Best Place for Wedding Rentals in the Best of Coastal Virginia Weddings Awards. This isn’t simply a Gold award for one part of Hampton Roads. It represents something much bigger, and this one means a lot to our team.
What Are the Best of Coastal Virginia Weddings Awards?
The Best of Coastal Virginia Weddings Awards celebrate the wedding businesses local couples and communities know, love, and recommend. The awards are determined through public Readers’ Choice voting, which makes this recognition especially meaningful. In past competitions, more than 22,000 votes have been cast across wedding categories.
Couples and readers vote for their favorite local venues, photographers, planners, caterers, rental companies, and other wedding professionals. Knowing this award came from the people we serve makes it even more special.
What Does “Overall Gold” Actually Mean?
The awards recognize Gold, Silver, and Bronze winners within Coastal Virginia’s Southside and Peninsula regions. But Overall Gold sits above those regional placements. It goes to the business that receives the highest number of votes across the entire Coastal Virginia region within its category. So Waterford didn’t just earn the top spot in Virginia Beach or the Southside. We received the most votes for Best Place for Wedding Rentals across the entire Coastal Virginia region.
For a locally owned event rental company, that feels pretty incredible.
This Award Is Really About Trust
Every vote represents someone who chose Waterford. Maybe it was a bride who watched her reception finally come together after months of planning. Maybe it was a mom who felt relieved when our team handled delivery and white glove setup. Or maybe it was one of the talented planners, venues, and wedding professionals we work alongside every weekend. That trust is what makes this award so meaningful. Beautiful linens, chairs, tables, and tabletop pieces are part of what we do. But great event rentals are also about what happens behind the scenes. It’s carefully packing an order. Showing up when promised. Steaming linens before guests arrive. Double-checking the details. And, when requested, handling setup and breakdown so families can enjoy the celebration instead of worrying about logistics.
