About Poplar Hill
Poplar Hill is a scenic country wedding venue in Blackstone, Virginia. We offer rustic charm, and the privacy of rural farm life for a simple yet elegant wedding. The main event space is surrounded by several hundred acres of farmland and pastures, with stunning natural views from every corner.
The Poplar Hill farmhouse was build in the 1790s by Captain Thomas Epes, with most recent restorations dating back to 1950. The farm has its original character, but has been equipped with modern amenities for a modern affair. Whether you want an intimate elopement or a nature-inspired grand event, Poplar Hill is an ideal wedding venue for you.
