One of my favorite things is getting a note or card in the mail from a bride or her mother saying that everything at the Boathouse wedding was wonderful and perfect. I love reading the notes, and passing on the compliments – because I can’t take any of the credit. We have a fabulous event staff at the Boathouse, and the star of the show is our Senior Event Coordinator: Julia Wingfield.
Julia, Our Senior Event Coordinator for the Boathouse at Sunday Park
Julia joined us at the Boathouse after being with the Event Departments at the Jefferson and Virginia Crossings Resort (now Wyndham Virginia Crossings). Julia draws on her wealth of experience as she helps bridal couples turn their visions and dreams into reality. Her patience and professionalism help them and their families relax and enjoy the wedding day.
Many people who choose the Boathouse for their event ask what the Staff Coordinator will actually do. No job description could really explain the amount of care and attention the coordinators give to their events. At the Boathouse, the Event Coordinator is the main point of contact for the hosts of the event. This ensures that details are not overlooked, and all questions are answered by someone who is familiar with the event. The Coordinator meets with the hosts and planners of the event, communicates the needs of the event to the Boathouse crew (Chef, Operations Director, Banquet Captain and Event Staff), assists the officiant at the wedding rehearsal, verifies the setup on the day of the event, helps get the bridal party in place for the wedding ceremony, and acts as a liaison between the hosts, wedding professionals, and the Boathouse crew during the reception.
Being an Event Coordinator is an exhilarating – and often exhausting – job. We appreciate the time and the attention to detail our Event Coordinators give to the Boathouse brides, grooms and their families. Thank you, Julia for all you do to make the events at the Boathouse a success and for giving our guests wonderful memories of their time with us.

Julia Wingfield and the staff at Boathouse at Sunday Park are excellent. My wedding was a morning wedding on Saturday, June 5th and had a lot of detail for the “lovebird” theme. Julia and the staff did an excellent job and the day was so beautiful. I appreciate all of the hard work and the accolades we have received from our family and friends show they agree.
Thanks,
Tamika and Norris Fletcher
