Silverbrook Farm

We've been putting off writing our review of Silverbrook Farm because it is truly not easy to do justice to this incredibly special place. Our best advice is to go see it for yourself. If you're like us, you will immediately fall in love with the absolutely gorgeous property, be fascinated by the history of the house, and realize on the spot that you could not imagine yourself getting married anywhere else.

When we got engaged, we did a lot of online research on venues and toured quite a few of them. There are many gorgeous venues in Loudoun county and Virginia wine country but based on our experience, Silverbrook is in a class of its own. No other location we saw shows the stunning beauty of the Virginia countryside quite like Silverbrook. It is gorgeous all on its own; you really don't need much by way of florals or decorations. Silverbrook also has such a variety of beautiful spots to explore and use for photos, such as the leafy green arbor (our ceremony site), the classically elegant english garden, and the shady wooded area with the picturesque bridge and treehouse.

The barn is equally spectacular and was the perfect spot for our reception. We loved the built in bar, the lounge seating areas, and the loft for extra table space.

The other incredible part of choosing Silverbrook for your wedding is getting to work with Dotti. Dotti is one of the kindest and most welcoming people we've ever had the pleasure of meeting. She was so invested in our wedding and in making sure that we had the most special wedding weekend. Throughout our wedding planning process, we also met two of Dotti's wedding coordinators: Natalie and Sherri, both of whom were wonderful. Sherri ended up being the coordinator for our wedding and she did an amazing job. Everything ran so smoothly, and we were able to have a wonderful, stress-free wedding day.

We truly can't say enough good things about Silverbrook and are so grateful to Dotti for sharing Silverbrook with us so that we could have the most perfect wedding day.

I cannot say enough great things about Dotti and her beautiful venue/home. My (now) husband and I did a small micro wedding, but it did not lack in anything thanks to the special touches and generousness of Dotti.

We had our ceremony under the beautiful green arbor, although it was a hard choice because there were many options on the property that could have worked too. The after cocktail hour and reception were on the front porch and in the intimate dining room.

Dotti made sure that everything ran smoothly and was easy to communicate with. She made sure all vendors were contacted and that the day went without a hitch. Even with a small wedding, there was a lot to keep track of and it felt like she was a wedding coordinator- she was that amazing. She has clearly put her heart and love into this home and I cannot thank her enough for opening it up to my family.

After Covid changed our original wedding plans, we decided to elope just the two of us with family and friends joining remotely on Zoom. I contacted Dotti about hosting our elopement only six weeks in advance. As soon as we visited, we knew the property was the perfect place for us to get married. The house is an incredible piece of American history, and the grounds have so many beautiful options for ceremony locations and photos. Even though she usually only hosts one wedding per week, Dotti was able to squeeze us in on a weekday.

From our first contact, everything about working with Dotti was an absolute pleasure. She happily accommodated all of our requests at no extra charge, including providing a gorgeous cake stand, beautiful china, and champagne flutes. In addition to being a wonderful host, Dotti also served as our officiant and wrote an incredibly beautiful ceremony for us.

I would highly recommend Silverbrook to anyone planning a wedding, large or small!
