Facilities and Capacity

Fussell Farm

Up to 250 guests can join couples on their wedding day at Fussell Farm. This venue, located on a working cattle ranch, is found right in the middle of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The vintage wooden barn on the property is the most popular location for wedding events. Couples can hold a wedding ceremony out on the lawn in front of the barn, with its large wooden silhouette in the background against the blue sky. Or, they can marry just inside the doors, hosting a smaller gathering on the barn’s cement floors. Receptions can take up the rest of the indoor venue where, beyond the gray sliding barn doors, couples can find alluring chandeliers hanging from the cathedral ceiling with white flowing fabric draped on either side of the lighting. An open side to this barn allows light and fresh country air to come into the venue. Tables can be setup in numerous fashions, with multiple banquet-style tables, one long center table, or a combination of the two options. This barn has a bar and, in addition to the light from the chandeliers, strings of fairy lights all around.
