med us that we could not drop off the alcohol because they no longer had the space. This was an inconvenience. We had to have someone drop the alcohol off on the day of the event. On the day of the wedding the venue put the wrong table linens on the tables. This was very frustrating because Foxchase was short on some of the black satin linens we ordered and and I ordered my own to fill the gap. They were dropped at Foxchase the week of our event. We paid for extra setup time and it was used to change out the table linens and we were not reimbursed for the time. My wedding coordinator and her team had to help change the linens. We asked that only wine and beer be served during cocktail hour. The venue served all alcohol and as a result we ran out of most of the premium alcohol by 9:00 pm. The wedding ended at 10:00pm. One of our bartenders did not speak English and struggled to communicate with our guest. After the wedding I informed our Event Supervisor Abigail of my concerns and no one from Foxchase reached out to us regarding our concerns. However, someone from Foxchase did reach out to out decor vendor who has a working relationship with the venue but not us. The event space was beautiful. However, I would not recommend them for your special day.

rge ballrooms that can hold hundreds of people each, as well as a beautiful lobby. They are very affordable especially in comparison to some other locations. They have inclusive packages that already come with nice chairs and table settings, as well as the option to add things that were important to me like a large white dance floor and a stage. We also booked Gala cuisine (which is their caterer) and the food was excellent - everyone loved it! My only suggestion would be to search around for lighting/sound before booking the company they have a deal with, since I did not love my lighting. Customer service from Foxchase was excellent and they were always very responsive. The venue was very flexible when I had to change our wedding day TWICE because of COVID, and it was much appreciated. I primarily communicated with Penny who I booked as my 30 day coordinator, however she was my right hand throughout the whole process. She is extremely detail oriented and worked hard to ensure we had the most wonderful wedding, but also too away a lot of the stress that comes with last minute coordination of things. I cannot thank her enough! I strongly recommend this venue to anyone hosting a wedding in the DMV area.

We booked Foxchase for two wedding events, one for our traditional wedding and another for our American wedding reception. Overall, the experience was great and most of the staff at Foxchase made certain that our events went smoothly. There w...
ere some inconveniences, but ultimately we were glad to have chosen Foxchase as our wedding venue. The venue itself is beautiful with its classical architecture and spacious rooms. We had 100 guests for each event and the space was comfortable for our guests during COVID. The ballroom looked amazing with the high ceilings and gorgeous chandeliers. Having an event at Foxchase truly does make your experience feel special and grand just due to the size of the venue. CONS: • We booked the venue until 11 PM for our first wedding but Foxchase turned the lights on at 10:30 PM and our guests proceeded to leave early. Everyone thought the party was over. Waste of money. • Drinks and food left on tables, even if they were full, were being discarded way too quickly by staff members when chairs were empty. This was very disappointing and again, just a waste of money. Happened during both events. • During the toasts, a 12 year old child was served with champagne while the rest of the adults at the table were served apple cider. It’s clear that there was lack of attention to what was being served. • Knives were not set out during dinner. Guests had to figure out how to eat chicken and steak without knives. • We had personalized cookies and place cards/coasters as party favors. These items were placed on every table and had our names and guests' names hand-written by a baker and calligrapher. Some guests left their cookies and coasters on the tables so they could enjoy the event without having to carry them around. When guests returned to their tables, cookies and coasters were already tossed out by staff. It's difficult to understand why their staff would throw away the party favors since you could easily tell these should have been taken home by the guests. This was highly disappointing since these details were an important part of our wedding and we paid a considerable amount to get those items personalized for each guest. PROS: • Venue allowed us to drop off our items and decor early, also allowed vendors to set up early during the day • Space and decor was beautifully set up once we arrived. We did have to tell them re-organize some things, but overall the space looked wonderful. Claudia helped to make sure the room was to our liking. • One of the owners, Amara, noticed that the wooden dance floor was scratched the day before the event. He offered to upgrade the dance floor for us and we were very appreciative of his offer. • The bartenders Axel and Roxanna were very nice and experienced. • Penny, stepped in whenever things needed to be addressed (ie. finalizing timelines and floor plans). She helped us get things on track. • Food tasting with Dawn was a great experience and the chef also gave us a few additional items that we didn’t order to try. Guests enjoyed the food and raved about how delicious everything was. • We requested to have our dinner privately during cocktail hour. Foxchase staff brought us our beautifully plated dinner in the Bridal Suite. • Foxchase allowed us to keep our vehicle overnight in their parking lot to store our belongings. We were able to pick it up the next morning without

Background: Due to health circumstances and doctor recommendation, we needed to plan a wedding in just two months and have it be close to home, in the Northern Virginia area. We called our close local family and friends (due to COVID-19, and al...
so to minimize risk, it was impossible for our families overseas to attend) and had a total guest count of ~135 guests (I know that seems large for a Western wedding, but it's intimate for an Indian one!) My family is Indian (North-Indian on one side, South-Indian on the other) and my now husband's family is Western. My family's side also had two days of festivities prior to the wedding to plan, so all in all, we knew from the start that this would be tough to pull off!! Foxchase Manor made everything so easy given our situation. We didn't have the time or money to hire/debrief a wedding planner for a Hindu ceremony & Western-style reception, so the venue providing an on-site wedding coordinator to help with layout and venue requirements was essential. Dawn was fantastic and highly responsive to all requests, and asked great questions related to timing, use of space, etc. We went with Foxchase's Gold Package, and were originally going to go with the in-house caterer, but we did not like their in-house Indian food. Dawn saved the day by letting us know that we could use one of Foxchase's external partners for food, and that in fact, most Indian couples choose to do this. She arranged a complimentary tasting with Bombay Tandoor in Tysons, and we liked the food there much better. Our guests on both sides let us know that the food was enjoyable, and we got the "best wedding food" accolade from some of our guests. Foxchase has you provide the alcohol yourself and then provides bar staff. I thought the bartender did a great job, and generally, the Foxchase servers seemed polite and well-mannered. We had some wedding crashers come over from an event happening on the other side who joined in the drinking and dancing (lol) and Dawn dealt with this quickly and professionally. We went with one of Foxchase's preferred vendors, Nadia from Enchanted Events, for decor and the decor was fantastic. Foxchase also made it easy by already having all the chairs/linens/napkins/plates so we could just choose it with Nadia and Dawn present and be done. For AV/lighting/DJ, we went with the all-inclusive package from Foxchase. This is the only thing I would reconsider - while we got there eventually, this vendor was overbooked so I didn't think we were quite getting the attention we needed, and had to really push to get things done. We ended up choosing the songs in the playlist entirely ourselves because the DJ wasn't understanding our style, and in the beginning, the room looked smoky/hazy which was hiding our decor in the photos (this was apparently done to help the lighting, but we didn't like this effect, so had them stop creating haze.) All of our guests danced, and had a good time (and we hardly left the dance floor ourselves), but if I had to do it again, I would have picked a vendor that was familiar with the venue but maybe not the premier partner. All in all, we had so much fun with friends and family, and this was a memorable event for us. My fiance says he just wants to relive the night over and over!

She responded to our texts within minutes, and was always flexible and ready to work with us/other vendors to make our day perfect. She even helped us quickly set up an outdoor ceremony, which was a decision we made at the last minute (literally 1 month before our actual wedding date). On the day of, all of our vendors had no problems figuring out where and how to set up, and the rest of the staff was very attentive to us for the entire night. I absolutely loved working with the team at Foxchase and would highly recommend Foxchase Manor to anyone looking to have the perfect wedding!

In addition, what makes Foxchase Manor a great place for a wedding is the flexibility to utilize all of their services, a portion of their services or do everything on your own including food and alcohol. With a large ceremony and reception came many unique and detailed requirements. Although it took a lot of coordination, in the end Penny and the team met and exceeded every requirement, including going above and beyond capturing significant moments for us after the primary photography team departed as we extended the evening. As for the value, the venue is a great value for the cost. We received a lot of positive feedback on the taste, abundance and quality of the food. Highly recommend the venue and the wedding coordination services of Penny. Foxchase books very quickly so plan early.

Please don’t hesitate to hire gala cuisine at Foxchase for your catering needs. Their food was amazing as my wedding guest are still raving about it. Believe it or not food plays one of the biggest parts of your wedding and gala cuisine is the best. If you think you don't need a wedding coordinator, think again and if you think you can go with just any one THINK AGAIN! Penny is a top-notch wedding coordinator and I am incredibly lucky to have had her help. She always made us feel as though she had everything 100% under control.

sure it was safe. Mask was mandatory and testing was required at entry. I’m a skeptical person by nature and didn’t see the value of a wedding coordinator, I believed in my military logistics skills as the key to success. However, I quickly learned it is important to have a wedding coordinator, especially one familiar with the venue. Needless to say our day was magical, the venue gives the ambiance of a royal wedding and the space is big enough to accommodate guest without looking crowded. Things to remember to book early: photographer, videographer, DJ, Caterer, Limousine ride, any special lighting and your coordinator. Have initial meetings and follow up two months prior event and month of event. Have a bodyman or woman who helps with coordinating pictures after key events as it can be chaotic with everyone wanting a picture with the groom and bride. All in all, my now wife who put in a lot of effort was extremely happy. Thanks Penny and Foxchase for making our day memorable with impeccable service and professionalism.

During this walkthrough they explained that all food that would be left after the dinner would be package so we would be able to take home or back to the hotel for our guest. After the wedding long behold they did not pack the food for us and they closed off the food section early so most people were not able to get second servings of food. After we called to check on the food and package, we were told by Penny that they didn't have packages for packing the food.

My experience began when I was directed to Mr. Adil in Sales who had a very detailed meeting with me and gathered not only the essential information, but took it to the next level by asking me questions such as 'nice to haves' so he could deliver the best value for me. Not only did he deliver, he exceeded my families and my expectations but providing great value, a unique experience that was customized for my needs and the most positive and professional interactions. He spent countless hours customizing my wedding with me and finding me the best vendors to achieve our goal. He was simply perfect! After we signed our contract we were assigned what I like to call the dream team! I was initial approached by Helen who is the perfect first impression any business would love to have. She was kind and patient with me with my million phone calls and thousand questions. She also was kinda enough to stay a tad bit later and hold an emergency food tasting for us! (Phew, thanks Helen!) I don't want to say that I saved the best for last because everyone truly at Fox Chase is amazing but Penny, my coordinator really knows how to exceed expectations on a different level. Penny is by far my favorite person ever! Our wedding was far more than we even expected in our wildest dreams and it was only because of Penny. As a bride you know that you have your work cut out for you, well, with Penny, you drop it down to about 20%. She not only takes on every task and detail, she makes the best and most efficient suggestions. She really took the time to understand my vision and executed it beyond my expectations. Our wedding was perfect, from the food, to the customer service and quality, Fox Chase exceeded our expectations!

Foxchase Manor was the ideal venue for our wedding. We were paired with an incredible day of planner named Yolanda. When we were introduced to our day of planner, we weren’t sure what to expect. We wanted to do as much of the planning ourselve...

thing was perfect for our special day. Penny Shafazand was our event coordinator and supervisor and she was absolutely amazing. She is the sweetest and most caring person in this world. She would check up on my wife and I during our planning phase to make sure we were doing okay, she extended her expertise and ideas, if we had any confusions about the way we wanted to setup the venue. She was the most understanding and easiest person to work with and we appreciate her so much. Even after the wedding, she continues to check up on my wife and I to make sure we are doing well. Her act of kindness and professionalism lets me know she is not just about the business, she really cares about her clients and making their special day/time as memorable as possible. To Penny, you are an amazing person and you are one of the biggest reasons for this 5-star review. Thank you for making our day the best day we have ever had, you are truly amazing. To the next newest and hottest couple, if you are looking for a venue to have your wedding (ceremony and/or reception), I absolutely recommend Foxchase Manor; not only is the venue beautiful, they work with your vendors, their staff is absolutely amazing and tailors the venue to your wants and needs. This is definitely the place to be.

It was PERFECT. Our wedding coordinator was PENNY who was SO helpful and attentive to us during the entire process. She checked in continuously, I think daily, a week or so leading up to the event date. and was never more than a few feet away for anything we asked on the night of. Thank you Penny jon.

booking, Sammy and his team were readily willing and available to address any and all questions/concerns. Having coordinated weddings in the past, I’ve worked with different venues and vendors, and I will always say that Foxchase is exceptional. Typically, venues and their staff only care about what happens with what they directly provide, but we had the luck of basically hiring a coordinator. Genuinely active and caring, Sammy gives his expert advice while being mindful of individual cultures, traditions, etc. Marrying into a different culture, my wedding had two separate bands and at first things were a little hectic. When Sammy noticed something was wrong, he immediately addressed the two bands and things took a turn for the better. He was open to all the adjustments my parents requested for the food and guided my vendors at initial set up for the day. I would greatly recommend Foxchase to anyone who’s looking for a beautiful wedding in Northern, VA!

ity with out my consent after I told them to hold on it. My car was fully loaded after the wedding, and I was told I could come first thing in the morning to get my left over sheet cake and floral center pieces and it was gone. All they said was "Sorry". Very dismissive about it. I was pissed. What I really think is they took my cake home and my flowers. I don't believe they threw away perfectly good cake. And I didn't pay to have the staff eat my cake! Unprofessional. Regardless, I paid for things so it's mine. I consider that STEALING. Especially if I specifically asked to not throw it away or give it away. Advice: Have at least two large trucks after the wedding. Take all of your belongings home because they will provide false promises and say that you can get them in the morning and they will take it. They make sure you are good before the wedding but as soon as the guest leave...they treat you how they want.

the venue is absolutely gorgeous and breathtaking. The beautiful pillars on the exterior, paired with the gorgeous chandeliers and detailing on the interior make this one exquisite venue! It looks as gorgeous in person as it does in photos! Quality of Service - Sammy and his team are extremely helpful and accommodating, willing to work with any budget or special requests you may have. His team was there to answer all of my questions and accommodate every request, even a last minute change to the floor plan and size of the DJ stage. Value - Foxchase offers many different packages to accommodate any budget and I honestly think we got the most bang for a buck at this venue than we could anywhere else. I went with a full package including dinner, passed hors d'oeuvres, staff, bar service and table settings and linens. Unlike other venues, Chivari chairs and linens you can hand pick out are included in the venue price! Most other venues will tack on extra charges for these upgrades, but not Foxchase. Food - Last but not least, the food. We had a full tasting with Sammy and his team of chefs about 60 days before the wedding (we had a buffet set up) and my family and I were blown away with how delicious and flavorful the food was! We know that there is a difference in cooking for 5 people and over 300 people, so we were blown away on the night of the wedding to discover the food was just as good, or even better (if that was even possible)! The menu offerings are plentiful and diverse, offering American, French and other ethnic cuisines. Everything was absolutely delicious! People kept saying it was the best food they'd ever had at a wedding and I agree. If I had to do it all again, I'd still pick Foxchase!

She made very rude comments about my hot chocolate bar ("that is going to look so ugly when liquid drips on that cloth") and told me she wasn't going to be able to get me the extra linens I had ordered in time for my wedding (she also told me I would need to pay extra for those).
