Monica T. Sent on 10/19/2024Fairview 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.Fairview Farm Events's reply:

This place is truly spectacular. We recently booked with them and our experience has been incredible. They answered any and all questions we brought to the table, and we cancelled our other venue tours after viewing this place! It is really a weekend affair and we are SO excited to get married here!! -

Everything is up to impeccable standards, and beautifully decorated. We cannot wait to see it completely decorated for our wedding! We wanted a place where we could have our two families stay on site, so they could get to know each other better, and this will be a perfect spot to do that. The staff and their approved vendors have been easy to work with, quickly responding to any questions that we have. What is often a very stressful time, planning for a wedding, has been much more relaxed thanks to our confidence in the staff and pro vendors.Fairview Farm Events's reply:
Judi,
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We only want the very best for our couples, their family and friends and being able to have so many stay at multiple onsite properties is so important for a destination wedding weekend! Our vendors treat our clients like family and will ensure that you have an amazing event!
All the best, Debora and Blanton, Fairview Farm Events -

For those who don’t love super contemporary venues and appreciate a rural charm, then Fairview Farms is an incredible option. We chose their premium package and changed our wedding to a wonderful weekend event. With our package, we got access to the whole venue from Friday morning to Sunday morning. We also got to use all of their on-site accommodations (btws you can keep about 50 people on-premises) which are all gorgeous and fit in with the wonderful overall landscaping of the place. It is a bit tucked away from a lot of shops and stores, but that added to the feeling of literally being in our own little world. It made the most amazing day of our life feel like a movie.Fairview Farm Events's reply:
Thank you so much for choosing Fairview Farm for your beautiful October wedding! Our goal is to give you a memorable destination wedding and seeing your family enjoy all our amenities while here meant so much to us! We wish you and your beautiful brides many years and you are always welcome back to our family farm to visit! -

Mackenzie Sent on 05/18/2024September wedding!
Fairview farm is a beautiful property offering great wedding packages that are all inclusive- with many awesome preferred vendors to use. They are responsive with any questions & very friendly! We just had our wedding in September & the property was decorated sooo nicely for Fall- we had a perfect day with family and friends & Colon- their property manager is incredibly kind and helpful! Their planning team that comes with the package is also amazing and made my day stress free and seamless. The beds in each house are also pretty comfortable for a good nights rest before wedding day. Incredible experience and i look forward to coming back to the farm for future photoshoots.
The only thing I’d change is the check out time. Check out time is 10am the Sunday after and the night of our wedding when it wrapped up- we were stressed about everything clean and in order for the early check out the next day. It would’ve been nicer to ease out Sunday morning and not feel very rushed- but i understand their cleaning team has to come in and prepare for the next event!
I would definitely recommend Fairview farm to anyone getting married!!Fairview Farm Events's reply:
Mackenzie, thank you so much for your kind review for Fairview Farm Events! We look forward to hosting your wedding in September and appreciate you taking time to review us. It means so much! -

Ashley B. Sent on 05/16/2024Fairview Farm- A Magical Place
From the very first phone call, I knew that Fairview Farm was a special place! We began planning my daughter’s wedding, as most families do, by arranging visits and tours of venues. We had a very specific date in mind and were determined to find the perfect venue to match the special date. During our first call, Debbie made sure that we felt important and heard. We planned our visit for the very next weekend! We were met at the venue by Blanton, who gave us a heart warming tour of the stunning farm, that has been in his family for over one hundred years. We could feel the pride and hear the love in his voice for this very special place. His tour was detailed and thorough. After our tour we met with Debbie who greeted us with excitement and enthusiasm. Although she hosts many events at her farm, we felt like ours was the most important to her. She walked us through all aspects of the packages, accommodations, and vendors while answering all of our questions along the way. By the end of our visit, we knew we had found our venue! The look in my daughter’s eyes said it all! We were so pleased to have found a beautiful venue that will be able to accommodate our families and be the backdrop for our special day!

Awesome!
I cannot say enough good things about our experience at Fairview Farms.
Very very friendly and responsive staff that operate the venue. Beautiful area for welcome dinner, ceremony, and reception.
AMAZING homes / barns on the property that can provide comfortable living arrangements for ~ 50 guests.
Fairview also includes a lot of stuff in their packages to make your life easier. They provide a list of preferred vendors with contact information, guides/checklists, and they offer great discounts + extras with their premium package (including the best wedding planner ever).
The farm itself is gorgeous and the reception barn is immaculate. People loved hanging out in the fire pit and game room area at night.
Pros: essentially everything
Cons: none
Definitely tour the venue and see what you think!

Leah T. Sent on 03/26/2024Wow! Get married your wedding here!
Choosing this venue was the best decision we ever made!!! Not only is Fairview Farm a picturesque place at any time of year…but it is family owned and run by one of these most friendly couples. The facilities manager was incredible and all of the vendors we had had worked with the venue before. Any question we had was answered in a timely manner and they worked with us when something was important to us. Debbie and Blanton are a 10/10 , as is Colon and Maria!
They have a variety of packages and offer you soooooo much within those packages. We didn’t have to look outside of what was offered at Fairview for much.
Furthermore, the living accommodations were so well appointed. It felt like a vacation for the weekend we stayed. Not to mention, 50 people can stay on the property! Which was perfect for our friends and family. It was so nice being in the property for more than 5 hours!
If you go with the premium package, lots of things are included. It made it extremely affordable for us that guests were able to stay on the property and subsidized the cost of the venue.
It was soooo worth it and our wedding was beautiful !!! We will cherish these memories forever.
We loved this venue and will be back !!! :) it is totally worth checking out !!! And only 45 min away from Short Pump area. -

Debbie and Blanton are the sweetest, most enthusiastic, most accommodating people I've worked with on anything, much less something as important as choosing a wedding venue. The place is gorgeous and has a ton to offer, but honestly the best thing about it is those two. They've been doing this for 10 years so have a ton of experience and great relationships with every vendor/service you could need, and it makes the process SO easy. And amazingly they seem as excited for every wedding as though it was their own family, even after 10 years! We knew immediately when we met with them that this was the place for us. Venue-wise, everything is spotless and beautiful and the surrounding landscape is perfection. We were really looking for a place where our family could stay with us for the weekend and were so lucky to find this, everything is gorgeously renovated and comfortable. You couldn't do better than to book with Fairview Farms. -

Best Wedding Venue in VA!
Nick and I had the best day of our lives on October 14th, 2023. Debbie, Blanton and Colon were the most accommodating hosts for our weekend. It rained on our wedding day, but the team at Fairview made it as amazing as I imagined even with the rain. The ability to have 50 friends and family stay with us on site made the weekend incredible. I would recommend this venue to anyone. The memories we made in October will last us a lifetime!Fairview Farm Events's reply:
Kelsey and Nick, thank you so much for your review and we really appreciate your kind words about our venue and our team. We loved having your family stay with us at the farm! We wish you both all the best. Debbie and Blanton -

Couldn’t say enough wonderful things about this venue and the grounds manager. Even when we had a tropical storm come through and a slight power outage during the ceremony the emergency generator cut on and kept it all moving forward!Fairview Farm Events's reply:

Our experience was wonderful. Fairview had amazing suggestions for vendors who all had wonderful service. Almost all the vendors had a military discount which was very helpful and had a discount for booking for Fairview. The accommodations are cozy and there's plenty of space for your wedding party and close family.Fairview Farm Events's reply:

If you are getting married in the greater Richmond area, you owe it to yourself to visit Fairview Farm. Our wedding experience at Fairview was nothing short of extraordinary. Fairview is nestled in a buccolic setting that remains true to its roots as a family dairy farm while providing modern, impressive accommodations. They have different packages depending on the size of the wedding. We rented the entire property and were able to provide accommodations for more than fifty out-of-town guests. Debbie, Blanton, and their team took care of every detail imaginable to make our wedding weekend a magical one. They also provide a list of preferred vendors who can work seamlessly together. And unexpected weather is certainly not a problem when you're at Fairview. We had 150 guests and our ceremony was originally intended to take place under a tree. When a cloud burst unexpectedly appeared on the radar less than two hours before the ceremony, within twenty minutes the Fairview team had moved and perfectly rearranged the wedding venue to the pavilion overlooking a pasture. Months after the ceremony we still had family and friends raving about how perfect Fairview's setting and facilities were. We cannot thank Debbie and Blanton enough for making our wedding such a memorable one.Fairview Farm Events's reply:
Thank you so much or your kind review! It means so much to us to have couples like you choose our family owned venue. This is our tenth anniversary of bringing couples together and your wedding weekend was what hope we can achieve thanks to our fantastic team that works so hard to make every wedding special. May you have many years of love and laughter and we are so thankful that you began your journey at our farm. God bless! -

I don't even know where to begin. I have never written a review before but Debbie, Blanton, Colon and Maria at Fairview Farm made such an incredible impact on our lives that there was no way I could not share my experience and hope to help future couples have their dream wedding like we did.
We were very tight on our budget and Debbie was so understanding and respectful of that. We went with the premiere weekend package but the date we had chosen was a weekday. They wanted us to have our dream wedding and created a "Weekday Wedding Weekend Package" for us so that we could still enjoy everything their standard weekend package had to offer but on a weekday. All of our family and friends were out of state, so they wanted us to be able to have them stay on site too. They worked so hard with us to find us the right vendors and give us the wedding we were hoping for. They were always so transparent with us from the start so you always felt you were getting an honest opinion or an honest recommendation.
One of the biggest things, however, was their responsiveness when things did NOT go as planned. We had a wedding date in January but my husband and I both got COVID just 6 days before the wedding and had to postpone it. Fairview responded so quick to this. I messaged the wedding planner for the venue (Chelsea Moring, also an absolute gem) and she immediately reached out to Fairview. By the time I called Fairview myself to give them the news, they had already gone through their calendar and had two potential dates within 2-3 months that they were prepared to move the wedding to. They helped me figure out what to do next in moving the date and they comforted me because it was heartbreaking to be that close to the wedding and to have family already getting into town only to have to put a pause on that excitement.
They treated us like family from the start and took care of us as they would their own family. They made our wedding everything we had hoped it would be. And our families and friends? They could not stop showering the venue with compliments. It really was a dream to have Fairview for our wedding. So yes, I HIGHLY recommend them!
