A One-of-a-Kind All-Inclusive Weekend Experience!


Fairview Farm Events offers ALL-INCLUSIVE, stress-free weekend packages with onsite lodging for 40+ guests at Virginia’s only fully restored family owned dairy farm estate. Our century-old barns have been transformed into upscale lofts with open floor plans, fully equipped kitchens, and sparkling chandeliers — the perfect blend of past and present.

Historic Farmhouse & Guest Amenities
The 3,700 sq. ft. Charleston-style farmhouse features wraparound porches, decks, and a gazebo, all beautifully renovated for modern comfort. A separate 2,000 sq. ft. game room building adds hours of entertainment for guests. Since opening our barn doors in 2013, we’ve continued to enhance the property, one of the first fifteen barns in Virginia to be fully restored for unforgettable celebrations.

Seasonal Décor & New 2026–2027 Packages
All of our properties are decorated by season, creating a naturally beautiful backdrop year-round. Our NEW Gold and Platinum packages include extensive planning support, DJ services, catering (based on a 100-guest estimate), and multiple photography options with generous “allowances” for 2026–2027 weekend weddings.

2026 Gift to Couples — Newly Released Silver Inclusive Weekends
Seven Silver Inclusive Summer 2026 Weekends — previously reserved for family — have just been released as our 2026 Gift to Couples, with packages starting at $12,950.

VIP ALL-INCLUSVIE Weekend Package Bonuses

Special VIP Gold, 15 onsite guests and Platinum upgrade option for up to 40+ onsite guests, for a turnkey fully decorated by season fam estate weekend, extensive planning services with a lead and assistant coordinator, DJ playng the music you love (multiple choices), Photographer (multiple choices) package allowance, Catering included for 100 guests (estimate) allowance with incredible menus and impeccable service included, BYOB approved, extended stay option, with many other added extras through February 10th, 2026.

During mid and off-season, we offer select Weekdays, Saturdays, and Sundays year-round with optional stay, on a limited basis. We’re happy to customize a package that fits your vision.

Authentic Reception Barn & All-Weather Pavilion
Our two-story, climate-controlled ADA cedar reception barn includes antique tables, chairs, and curated seasonal décor that create warmth and charm. The adjacent ADA all-weather pavilion features three grand chandeliers, bistro lighting, and flexible spaces for rehearsal dinners, brunches, ceremonies, cocktail hours, activities and more! Rain or shine, we have you covered — with Generac generators throughout the property.

A Seamless Planning Experience
Planning a wedding should feel effortless. Our team of family-owned vendors and staff is dedicated to exceeding expectations. We are fully transparent and review all fees during your tour — exactly as it should be. We also provide a wide selection of décor and props, and many couples simply bring bouquets and personal touches, which we warmly welcome.

Your Weekend, Your Experience
Unlike venues that host multiple weddings each week, we focus on one couple at a time. We want you to soak in the joy of an entire weekend, not rush through a single day. From the moment you tour, our goal is to create a personalized package that reflects your style and story.

A Family Legacy Since 1915
Family-owned for over a century, Fairview Farm has been lovingly restored to preserve its original character while offering far more than a day-only venue. Our extended-stay options allow traveling families to arrive early, relax, and truly enjoy the most meaningful weekend of their lives.

Award-Winning Excellence
Virginia Living Magazine named Fairview Farm a Wedding Vendor of the Year — one of only 25 selected statewide — for the third year. WeddingWire and The Knot have honored us annually as well, a recognition that means the world because it comes directly from our couple reviews.

A Great Day At Fairview

Winning a $25k wedding at Fairview Farm Events has truly been one of the biggest blessings for Nicholas and me. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, and we were starting to feel the weight of the financial stress. When we found out we had won, it felt like a miracle. We are so grateful to have our wedding fully covered, and it has brought us so much joy and peace knowing we can now focus on celebrating our love and preparing for our future together.

Fairview Farm Events has been incredible from the very beginning. Their generosity and the way they honor military families is something we will always remember. The venue is absolutely beautiful, and we are thrilled to be able to get married in a place we never could have afforded on our own. We want everyone to know how thankful we are and how special this opportunity is. Fairview Farm Events has truly given us a gift that will stay with us forever.

Wedding Dream Come True

Choosing Fairview Farm Events for my daughter's wedding was the best decision we ever made. The entire weekend was an absolute dream come true for her, and it's all thanks to the impeccable service and stunning setting. From the moment we arrived for our weekend stay, the grounds and lodging felt like a magical escape. The accommodations were not only meticulous but also beautifully decorated for the season, adding a warm, welcoming touch that our family adored.
The flow of the event was seamless, utilizing the incredible variety of spaces. Our rehearsal dinner and cocktail hour in the pavilion were fun and festive, setting a perfect tone for the weekend. Guests were then completely swept away by the main barn, which served as a stunning and romantic backdrop for the ceremony. The transition into the elegant dining room was breathtaking, leaving our guests speechless with its rustic charm and romantic ambiance.
Every detail designed to enhance the evening—from the cozy fireplace and firepits to the enchanting Edison lights and yard games—elevated the celebration even further. What truly set Fairview Farm apart, however, was the team. From our very first visit, through the planning phases, and during the wedding weekend, the entire staff made us feel like my daughter's wedding was the most beautiful and important event they had ever hosted. They handled every detail with such grace and professionalism that we were able to relax and soak in every precious moment. This level of care and personal attention was beyond compare. Thank you, Fairview Farm Events, for making her dreams a reality.

My dream wedding

Debbie and Blanton are the most down to earth and caring people. They made us feel like family from the moment we toured the venue. Fairview Farms offers many different packages and they are more than willing to work around things to make it uniquely yours. Debbie is also super easy to get in touch with and more than willing to answer any questions we may have. It has been a blessing working with their team and we could not be more excited to celebrate our wedding weekend at Fairview Farms.

Fairview Farm Is the Total Package—Stunning Venue, Incredible Support

We feel incredibly lucky to have chosen Fairview Farm Events as our wedding venue. From the moment we first visited, we were struck by how stunning the property is—rolling hills, water views, and an elegant, rustic charm that feels both timeless and welcoming. Every detail of the space feels intentionally designed for meaningful celebration.

One of the biggest game changers for us was the on-site accommodations. Having beautifully maintained cottages available for our families and wedding party makes the entire weekend feel like a full experience rather than just a one-day event. It offered us the rare opportunity to slow down, connect, and really be present with the people we love most.

Another standout is the curated list of vendors Fairview provides. Every recommendation we explored felt like a trusted professional—affordable, excellent at what they do, and familiar with the venue and its flow. That level of comfort and experience has made the planning process feel so much more manageable and enjoyable.

The team at Fairview has also been so thoughtful and responsive. It’s clear they genuinely care about each couple and go the extra mile to make sure the day reflects your vision.

Incredible venue--even with a tropical storm

Fairview Farms is an excellent option for those who want to host their friends and family for a wedding weekend instead of just a wedding day/night. The accommodations are lovely and a great way to maximize your time with guests. We had a tropical storm that knocked the power for a few minutes during our ceremony--but luckily, Fairview is equipped with emergency generator systems that kicked on immediately. If you're looking for a rustic venue with great staff and accommodations--look no further!

A Christmas Wedding & The Wizard Of Oz

My daughter and now son-in-law, Natalie and Cory Matheny, were married on December 29, 2024 at Fairview Farm and it was amazing! The entire experience was just what Natalie dreamed of and the venue was magical. The farm was fully decorated for Christmas making the holiday themed wedding exactly what Natalie and Cory wanted. Our guests were in awe of what a perfect space Fairview Farm was for a wedding. So many people reach out to me to tell me what an wonderful venue and event it was and that was echoed by all of us in the wedding. Everyone at Fairview Farm Events and their vendors were a pleasure to work with and I can't say enough about how beautiful and well kept the property was. The wedding party stayed on property for the weekend making the experience more like a destination wedding, creating a lifetime of special memories!

Weddings can be a stressful time, but the staff at Fairview minimized any stress we had. And, all the planning, decision making, and coordinating was all worth while to see the smile on the bride and groom's faces throughout the entire weekend. Congratulations Fairview Farm Events on your well-deserved Virginia Living Magazine’s top wedding venue recognition! Thank you again for everything you did to make my daughter's wedding a dream come true.

A venue for those who want the whole experience

I love the history of the property and what they’ve done with it. Everyone enjoyed being able to hang out Friday night after rehearsal and spend the night. It was a venue where every detail has been thought of. I love the decor shed! I didn’t have to do a bunch of DIY decorating. It’s a fabulous place!

Fairview Farm Events - A Perfect Wedding Venue

Fairview Farm Events was the perfect venue for my son’s wedding! The entire property is beautiful, offering numerous spots for stunning photos and multiple options for ceremony sites. We had the wedding outside under an oak tree, which was absolutely lovely. The venue also provided two distinct areas for our event—the pavilion for the cocktail hour and the barn for the reception—creating a wonderful flow for our guests. The barn was air-conditioned, which was a huge bonus given the hot weather that day.
Accessibility was key for us, and the venue being ADA-compliant ensured that the bride's mother could attend comfortably in her wheelchair. The venue also offers a wide variety of decorations, which helped us cut down on floral costs while still having everything beautifully arranged to our tastes, thanks to the help of their on-site coordinator.
We were worried about rain, but Fairview Farm’s flexible rain plan was a lifesaver. The staff allowed us to wait until the last minute before deciding whether to move the ceremony indoors, giving the weather time to improve. Thankfully, we didn’t need to use the rain plan, but the flexibility and support were so appreciated. The entire staff, from the facility manager to the coordinator and DJ, were fantastic. The facility manager helped with everything from parking to setting up tables and chairs, ensuring everything flowed smoothly. Their vendor list was also incredibly helpful—each vendor was familiar with the venue, making the whole process seamless. The caterers and bartenders worked well with the coordinator to make sure the setup was perfect, and the photographer knew all the best photo spots on the property, giving us beautiful memories to look back on.
Additionally, the venue offers several houses for the wedding party and guests to use, which is such a convenient feature. The groomsmen loved the game room while waiting for the ceremony! Overall, everything about the planning and execution of the wedding went off without a hitch, and I can’t thank Fairview Farm Events enough for their amazing service. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful, well-organized place to host a celebration.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
