Beautiful venue with an incredible team!

We held our intimate wedding and reception at The Red Fox Inn & Tavern in December, and it was a truly magical experience from start to finish! We had the pleasure of working with Ashley throughout the year to plan out our dream day, and the entire Red Fox team absolutely delivered! Ashley was incredibly professional and helpful throughout the planning process.
The venue is exquisite, and it was the perfect place to host our festive, hunt-country themed December wedding. Every backdrop was absolutely stunning, and the food and drinks were divine! Our guests were all blown away by the venue, as well as the hotel accommodations.
I couldn't recommend this venue highly enough -- it was a truly magical day!

Beautiful wedding at The Red Fox

We had the most beautiful wedding at The Red Fox Inn & Tavern! Ashley and her team were so amazing to work with - extremely responsive, friendly, and caring. Middleburg is such a charming and lovely wedding destination that our guests loved visiting (especially guests who were able to stay with us on the Red Fox property). The food at our wedding was wonderful, and the "Date Night" experience to visit The Red Fox for our menu tasting was such a wonderful little highlight of the wedding planning process! We heard nothing but amazing reviews of The Red Fox and their Events team from our friends and family. We look forward to visiting The Red Fox Inn many times throughout our lives to relive our wonderful memories of our wedding day!

We worked with Kelley Cannon Events for our wedding planning and couldn't recommend them more, either - they have a great relationship with The Red Fox and have pulled off many beautiful weddings there. Melissa at Lissa Ryan Photography also knows how to photograph the property and weddings there with such amazing skill.

An Evening in the Washington Room

If you are looking for a timeless wedding venue, the Red Fox can't be beat. We decided to have a small wedding on our original date with a larger reception postponed until spring, so two "weddings" meant we had to be careful with our budget. After talking with the events coordinator, Ashley, we decided that the Red Fox would be worth the price tag because everyone was so flexible, thoughtful, and accommodating. For example, when the Governor announced new COVID safety protocols, Ashley moved our reception dinner into a larger space to ensure social distancing.

I was lucky to spend two nights in the charming and well-appointed Middleburg Cottage, which features a private garden, a full kitchen, and a collection of hunting art. The Cottage has a guest room with twin beds, which is perfect for a night-before-the-wedding hangout with your bridesmaids! It was also the perfect place to take pictures and get ready on the big day. The morning after our wedding, they delivered a hot breakfast and coffee to our cottage.

After getting married at St. Stephen the Martyr Catholic Church down the street, my guests took pictures on the Red Fox Inn's grounds surrounded by blooming flowers and carefully cultivated climbing fruit trees. Our dinner in the Washington Room was one of the best meals I've ever had, and the service was exceptional. Ashley worked with my wedding planner on the timing of the evening and the pace between dishes. To save money on music, they let us play a Spotify playlist through the speakers. Because we had a consumption bar, we ended up going a little over budget, but I don't fault them for it because that's often hard to predict. (And my father in law says he's never had a better Old Fashioned.) Our guests have raved about our reception for weeks. Overall our experience was literally perfect in every way and worth the slightly-larger-than-expected price tag!
