Fox Meadow Barn at Cloverdale Farm

we got with the venue. From the very start, Dixie was quick to answer questions, she was always kind and helpful and made the decision making process so easy.

plenty of electricity resources at both the outdoor ceremony space and indoor reception area. Dixie was very accommodating to give us a tour, and was extremely responsive to our questions (which we had many). Her process and requests were simple and easy to follow, which helped relieve so much stress off of our shoulders. One of the best parts is that she has tables and chairs for rent, as well as other decor items available that we were able to use. My only critique is that the getting ready area is very small. It is big enough to comfortably accommodate four people getting ready, but not many more. We actually had our families get ready offsite (which actually worked in our favor in the end). Overall, I would absolutely recommend Fox Meadow Barn, and I am so happy we held our wedding here.

seemed too easy and it was just that easy. If you are looking for a beautiful indoor and outdoor venue, this is the perfect venue!

door ceremony area made the perfect backdrop for the ceremony. The outdoor patio area was the perfect spot for cocktail hour. The barn was beautiful and spacious for the reception. We highly recommend Fox Meadow if you are looking for a wedding venue in Winchester.

ying the outdoors, dancing outside, playing yard games, and taking in the beautiful view of the mountains. Dixie was incredibly responsive and helpful and had everything ready to go, just as we'd requested, bright and early.

peak season, I needed to tour during the week around 7:00 PM. Unfortunately, my husband couldn’t make that tour and I was unable to FaceTime him. Once again, Dixie accommodated us and let us do a self-guided tour the day before Thanksgiving. Just like me, my husband immediately loved it and wanted to call Dixie to book. We needed to come home and look at some more details before moving forward and Dixie never once pressured us. I reached out to 100+ venues across Virginia, DC, and Maryland, and many people were focused on sales and made me feel like just a number. Dixie made me feel like family! After booking, Dixie provided me with a ton of resources — a day of timeline example, a spreadsheet with vendors for everything imaginable, photos, and videos. No matter how many times I emailed or texted, Dixie responded within hours or less. She made being a DIY bride and planning my own wedding a breeze! In fact, because of Dixie and how much I enjoyed planning my wedding, I am strongly considering entering the wedding industry part time as a planner or coordinator. I cannot recommend Dixie and Fox Meadow Barn enough! I was not a barn bride until discovering Fox Meadow Barn. It is absolutely gorgeous!

o make the most out of your event. She is very responsive and incredibly helpful. My husband and I are not from the Winchester area, so having Dixie's thorough contact/vendor list was absolutely essential to us during our planning process. The venue itself is kept in very good condition, with upgrades continuing to trickle in. Lighting and temperature controls were available to us as the hosts to set to our liking and could be adjusted throughout the event. The barn is very versatile in the way that it can be made up to be very rustic, traditional, or more modern! The location is very conveniently close to the downtown area where the hotels and restaurants, but just far enough away so your event still feels very private. The price was definitely reasonable and good for those who want more freedom with which vendors they want to book. Dixie also offered a ton of customizable options allowing you to work within a budget. Overall, we had an absolutely beautiful wedding at the end of May. Our guests had an amazing time and loved the venue! The scenery was breathtaking and allows for some amazing wedding photos, especially around golden hour. I highly recommend Dixie and her business, she is good people!!

was so easy to work with and always responded quickly to all my questions. Not only that, she provided resources to help me find vendors for all the services I needed. She truly goes above and beyond for her clients! The venue itself was beautiful and so well maintained. We especially loved the covered patio for our guests to enjoy cocktail hour and a break from the dancefloor. On top of that, the cows on the neighboring farm even seemed to want to join in the wedding celebration and came as close to the barn as possible. It was so cute and made for the perfect backdrop for our pictures. I would give Fox Meadow Barn 5 stars for their amazing service and beautiful venue. I am so happy I chose them for my wedding and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing wedding venue!

eebie' items you can use on site to spruce it up as well. Would absolutely recommend if you're looking for a standalone venue that will let you bring in any vendors you want!

perty is well maintained, and we were very pleased with the amenities. I loved that I could decorate simply and let the venue’s built in beauty shine! Dixie is a joy to work with, allowing us many opportunities to visit the venue ahead of the big day, and offering numerous resources and references, to vendors, insurance, etc. The property has a lovely, private atmosphere, but is close to town for last minute errands. We are so happy we chose this venue for our big day!

ty before the wedding was super easy and convenient and made the actual wedding day much easier. It's a truly stunning venue and the location is so convenient to downtown Winchester. Our wedding was truly magical and Fox Meadow played such a big role in making our wedding dreams come true!!

th my planning process which made the day of the wedding go by flawlessly! The outdoor ceremony area has a perfect view and the barn itself is stunning, leaving my guests impressed. There’s a bridal suite we got ready in which is a bit small if you have a large bridal party but it was perfect for us as I had a smaller wedding party, but I believe they have plans to build a separate bridal suite in the future, regardless it was a huge help being able to get ready and also oversee the set up of everything.

fer and everything needed for a perfect day. I can't recommend Fox Meadow enough!

hich helped me find the perfect vendors! Her venue is gorgeous, and I knew the first time I saw it I wanted to make sure my wedding took place there. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a lovely, rustic barn with gorgeous views!

to truly make the place exactly what we wanted. The great thing about this venue is that we were able to choose all of our own vendors, decorate how we wanted, and have so much fun with all of our guests. Our wedding was on a Saturday, and we got super lucky with no one booking for Friday night. For a small extra fee, we bought Friday night to set up and that was a HUGE stress relief for Saturday. We were able to have the venue all day Friday to set up which was amazing. They are very upfront about having tours during the mornings, so I didn't mind at all. There were a few people around for just a very short amount of time. They were all super respectful and weren't in the way any. I planned my own wedding and it was great being able to contact Dixie with any questions but being able to choose and do the things I wanted. If you are looking for that kind of wedding process, this is definitely an amazing venue to do that! If you want the venue to plan things for you/have staff that works at the venue during the wedding, this would not be the venue you want as the staff does not work during the wedding. You can pay a little extra for set-up, but there is not a staff for during the wedding. Again, though, we were totally okay with that and instead, I hired a day-of-coordinator! It was a perfect day and I could not have asked for a more beautiful venue or kinder people to work with!

n to ensure all your venue needs are met (and offers great recommendations on other local vendors). The barn is a gorgeous space, as are the outdoor patio and ceremony areas. We couldn't have been happier with the setting for our wedding.

erything you would want in a wedding venue. The venue itself is gorgeous - we got SO MANY compliments about every component of the venue. And we've actually had two friends choose to get married here too after seeing our wedding! We liked the "hands-off" approach their team took, but note that it will require a bit more attention and planning from you personally. But it was great for us to be able to make every decision ourselves! You won't regret getting married here, it's a beautiful spot owned by a group of people who want you to have the best wedding day ever! Thank you Dixie & Fox Meadow Barn!

nue are everything a bride could wish for on her wedding day. Photos do not do the venue enough justice with its beauty. 100% recommend this venue to ANYONE.

stions and doing the best job to help streamline the process of the wedding as well as access to a decent series of wedding decorations and options.

ered patio it helped give us more space so we could move tables and chairs from the ceremony set up to the reception set up!

area came in handy for our cocktail hour in the August sun. Everyone absolutely loved our venue. Dixie was a treat to work with; professional and helpful from the start. She gave us vendor contacts and timeline samples which were extremely helpful in all the planning. She was always clear with what steps were needed on our end and was very communicative. Cant recommend this venue enough!

husband and I. If you are thinking of looking into this venue, look no more. This is the spot. We also cannot emphasize how great and amazing Dixie is (venue owner). She is one of the greatest people we know. She was great with communication and also is great with keeping Fox meadows beautiful. We are eternally grateful!

for our wedding. We first reached out to Dixie about hosting our wedding at Fox Meadow Barn about a year ago when we first started planning. Once we saw the venue we knew it would be perfect for us- beautiful views, all in one venue with beautiful ceremony area, cool paved outside area for cocktail hour (since has been further upgraded with a beautiful atrium covering!), and large parking lot for easy access. Not to mention Winchester is a great wedding location, tons of lodging options and a beautiful downtown area that lends to a fun whole wedding weekend. On the day of we got absolutely beautiful weather- sunny and beautiful all through the day and the ceremony, creating for some beautiful pictures out in the field ceremony area. Eventually we got a bit of rain that came in at the perfect time, just as the cocktail hour was ending, and we got to watch a beautiful summer shower from the safety of the barn and the windowed atrium. Thank you Dixie for letting us use your beautiful venue for our big day! We've received so many compliments about how beautiful the venue was and we couldn't be happier with our decision to host our wedding there!

e new covered patio added the perfect touch!

d answered my emails very quickly, answering any questions we had. She sent us several useful tips, ideas, and vendors to help with the wedding planning process and help ease the stress. There’s nothing I would change. Absolutely wonderful!

tive. When we needed to work through any kind of problem with her, it was a major event and left us exhausted. I have so many Dixie stories, here are a few samples. The week of our wedding, she told us she had added a pergola to the venue... but she didn't have the electricity set up yet. So it was an unfinished, dark space that wasn't there when we toured and signed our contract. She took no responsibility for this. I asked if she could please put up string lights or something -- she said no, and sent me a rambling email that included, among other tidbits, her own complaints about how high taxes are. It was unprofessional and weird -- and was not even the first time she complained to us, the bride and groom, about her taxes. The morning of our wedding, one of our vendors dropped off some items we rented an hour earlier than he was supposed to. Dixie flipped out and started angrily texting my husband - on the morning of his wedding - that we should switch to paper plates, we would need to rent a U-Haul to get all of these items out in time that night, etc. Thankfully my husband is a calm person and we didn't get riled up, but for someone else, that manufactured, early-morning crisis could have added a lot of panic and negative emotion to a special day we had been planning for years. It seemed like Dixie booked too many weddings that weekend, and then took her own stress out on us. I'd suggest to Dixie that she hire someone to take over day-to-day management of the venue and communications with couples, or that she seek some professional guidance on how to improve her client communication skills.

gay-friendly venue in Winchester, this is a great option. Also, it was an accessible space which was really important to us. We had everything we needed and more. The large kitchen was helpful. The view from the ceremony space is absolutely stunning. The additions to the patio are really nice, too. We were very comfortable — the lights are all on dimmers leaving lots of flexibility to set the mood. We saved a lot of money because of bringing our own alcohol and returning most of what we didn't use. The temperature was very comfortable and Dixie was super flexible and relaxed as far as helping us make the space work for us and our vendors. There are doors and windows everywhere so you could totally open up everything and make it extra covid-safe. The only things that would make the space better would be an accessible path to the ceremony space (Dixie showed us a path to use to drive in grandma which worked okay) and the ability to play music outside later into the evening (we couldn't do the dance party outside and would have liked to). But these were minor and over all the venue was just what we wanted. Would recommend!

November 2021. Dixie was terrific to work with over those two years. She was responsive, understanding and flexible. And her venue only got prettier as our date approached! Our pictures turned out so well because of the gorgeous Appalachian scenery and the lovely barn. For us the place was just-right -- it's a barn but it includes modern amenities that's just rustic enough. We would highly recommend getting married at Fox Meadow Barn.

ith all of the commodities (lights/ac/heat/bathrooms). I did minimal decorations because the venue spoke for itself. The kitchen and back entry were perfect for our vendors. Dixie was flexible when we had to postpone our wedding (Dec. 2020 to Nov. 2021) and I am so thankful for her!

we pushed through!). It has a beautiful background behind the arch including the farm field and distant trees. It was perfect for photos and ideal for those wanting a modern farm rustic venue. The barn was equally as beautiful with the stone fireplace, wooden beams, tulle and string lights, and a chandelier and was the perfect size for our 140 guests. This venue does not provide decorations, food or bar service supplies, but we actually preferred the flexibility of choosing everything on our own. The owner, Dixie, is so personable and very accommodating throughout the whole process. The price is very reasonable. I would recommend this location to anyone!

questions, taking videos of the space for reference, and quick to answer my many emails! The venue was gorgeous and is very versatile in regards to what kind of ceremony you are hoping to have with indoor and outdoor options. The venue itself is naturally gorgeous so a little decor goes a long way!

to find. The views were incredible. The building it self had compliments all night from our guest. Dixie provided so many building decorations that we did not have to supply much of our own, just our own small personal touches. My husband and I paid for our wedding alone and Dixie was fantastic working financially with us! I will always recommend this place to others.

chen and a patio this "Barn style venue" is very classy! Dixie, the owner is wonderful and very responsive and helpful - she let me do multiple walkthroughs which I appreciated!

ue. Fox Meadow Barn is in a wonderful location near Winchester, VA. The venue is easy to get to, and once there, you are surrounded by the beautiful countryside with rolling hills in the background. The venue is newer and modern, allowing for both heating and air conditioning, which definitely gives it some brownie points. =) The large stone fireplace and wood work on the interior of the barn are VERY NICELY done! Dixie Scheulen is friendly, professional, and the proud owner of this venue. You should give her a call! I know she will go ABOVE and BEYOND to make your experience at Fox Meadow Barn one you will remember for years to come!

the amenities were available and clean. It didn't take many decors to make the place beautiful, there were lots of decorations already available. The location is perfect, the place is perfect. Dealing with Dixie, the owner, was very easy and she's super helpful and nice. I definitely recommend this venue for any of your future events.

me out beautifully. The scenery is so gorgeous with the venue.

l venue only 10 minutes to downtown Winchester which is very convienient for hotels. Dixie the owner is very responsive to any questions. The venue is DIY so you get to pick your own catering, bar stuff, decorations, etc. You can rent tables and chairs through them for a very reasonable price. Definitely recommend!

host. Dixie made my experience AMAZING. Seriously. She was so sweet, extremely helpful and a fast responder. She made my wedding experience 100x less stressful than It would’ve been if I went somewhere else. She was super flexible and just the best! I am extremely grateful that I got to have this amazing wedding experience in my dream venue with an extraordinary venue host ♥️ Book with fox Meadow barn :)

n area as well as a grooms room, brides room and men's and women's bathrooms. Parking is plentiful and the venue was easy for guests to find. The patio area would be great for warmer weather, but the scenery out the windows is nice anytime of the year. I highly recommend booking a wedding at Fox Meadow.

nd was always flexible when allowing me to visit the venue. The venue is gorgeous inside and out, and I would recommend it to anyone looking!

still a barn feel with all the exposed beams. Beautiful lighting and many on site decorations already fit exactly what we were looking for. I would highly recommend contacting Dixie (owner) to see for yourself how special this place is.

drop to your wedding and inside the building is elegant. This is the perfect venue.

10/10, hands down!

ecial!! The venue is absolutely gorgeous and the landscape made our pictures so perfect! I would recommend this venue to anyone for any event!
