Shadow Creek Weddings & Events

you’re wedding day is flawless and will care for your big day as if it’s their own and that is something money can’t buy. Do not think twice and go tour and book this venue, you will not regret it one bit!

indoor barn space was perfect for our evening reception. What adds to the beauty and charm of Shadow Creek as a wedding venue is the thoroughness and professionalism of its owners and staff! Right from the venue tours to the actual day-of venue coordination, we were provided with excellent guidance and service. We are so glad we chose Shadow Creek for our special day and recommend it wholeheartedly!

"rain" plan, to beautiful bridal & groom suites, ample bathrooms, and a full kitchen. It has the rustic charm, with the modern build and amenities, making it the perfect combo. The covered porch with chic patio furniture, Gus the horse, and the Hitched Bar, all add to the Wow factor. I feel so lucky to have gotten married there. They are so nice, organized, and professional. Easy to communicate with! Just book it :)

utiful venue made our our decision extremely easy for where we wanted our wedding! We also hired Jill Smith as our planner and florist, she's also a manager at Shadow creek and my personal lifesaver through the planning process! Our wedding got moved up and we unexpectedly had to put together our wedding in three months instead of nine (you can imagine how stressful that is especially for a pregnant bride in law enforcement) Jill was simply a godsend for us! Lori and Jill both made our day amazing and memorable! Both extremely professional and responsive and I can't express my Gratitude for how understanding and accommodating they were for our situation and us moving the date! Given the chance to do our wedding over I wouldn't change a thing. Highly recommend to all our newly engaged friends and family!

t (which didn’t realize how critical this was until actually getting vendors and seeing how amazing they were), and I can honestly keep going and going. Lori always answered every question within 24 hours and even went above and beyond with certain asks that I had that weren’t technically part of the venue. Definitely recommend Shadow Creek and Lori!

we wanted a venue that felt special. Shadow Creek was all of that for us. When we visited, even in an empty room/blank canvas, it felt right. Lori and her team take pride in being an amazing venue and it shows in how the property is maintained inside and out. The bridal suite is a dream and the garden gives every season a chance to shine. You want summer blooms? The hydrangeas are there. You want moody fall florals? The beautiful fall foliage of Purcellville is there. Bonus points, the views are just *chef's kiss*. Overall, Lori and her team, especially Jimmy are the very best. They make it a priority to make sure your day goes smoothly and to make sure you are happy and taken care of. You really can't ask for a better team, especially one that works so well with other vendors! Shadow Creek will make you want to relive your wedding over and over again and have your guests and family talking about it for weeks and months to come (true story). So if you're on the fence, just do it and contact Lori!

venue. She made us immediately fall in love with her and the venue and we knew right away that we were going to be in capable hands. She was always so fast to respond via email that I felt like I was texting her rather than emailing. On the day of the wedding, Lori made me feel so stress-free and her calm demeanor immediately put me at ease, which allowed us to soak in the moments even more because the day truly does pass by so fast! Brides, run do not walk and book Shadow Creek and their Team right away for your BIG day. It was so worth it! I promise you, you will not regret it because if I could, I would want to relive this day again and again if I could.

ding when our outdoor ceremony had to be moved inside due to a tropical storm. Lori was easy to contact and quick to respond to any questions we had during the planning process. We also booked Shiloh for the weekend which was the best decision! We used Shiloh as our getting ready house which was so convenient since it’s located right across the street from Shadow Creek. We have nothing but good things to say about the team who runs Shadow Creek and Shiloh!

elevate the inside above your typical barn style venue. Lori and her team at Shadow Creek were also exceptionally helpful, suggesting an incredible team of vendors for our wedding, helping us make a great plan for the flow of the wedding, and helping throughout the day of the event! We loved getting married here and couldn’t imagine having our day anywhere else!

so supportive in helping us navigate how to proceed with our outdoor ceremony. Throughout our engagement, Lori was so helpful and responsive. She gave several recommendations and always did so very promptly. Our wedding day weather was quite rainy, but everything was still so beautiful. We’d recommend shadow creek to anyone and are so grateful to have worked with Lori leading up to such a special day.

one other appointment I had made at another venue. Immediately walking in I knew that Shadow Creek was going to be where we had our wedding. Lori the owner? Amazing. The way she talked about how the day would go, where you would be, what you have with them, and being overall focused on the bride and groom you could just feel the compassion and love that she feels for what she does. You obviously want your guests to have a great time, but the day is truly for the bride and groom so it was nice to see the extra care in that. We had about 150 people at our wedding, there was plenty of space for tables and plenty of room for the dance floor without it looking empty. It was perfection. No one said one negative thing about the venue. It was the absolute perfect day. Lori was always so responsive and didn't make me feel silly for asking any questions that I had. They also provided a military discount as my now husband is in the service which was very appreciated. Definitely recommend this wedding venue!!

dow Creek to the day our wedding took place. We were in the hands of true professionals who made sure our wedding day was the best day of our lives! Each space of Shadow Creek is unique, gorgeous, comfortable, and versatile! Guests were able to mix and mingle on the porch, in the well groomed yard, and within the gorgeous modern barn decorated with purposeful decor and unique touches! Lori and her team made us feel special throughout the entire event and we had no need for a photo-booth, as Shadow Creek is so beautiful on its own that people had photo ops all over!! Thank you for giving us a day we will remember as the best day of our lives!

of the weather and the team made sure everything was perfect. I can't say enough good things about the experience we had. The owner Lori is amazing. She is attentive, caring, and highly responsive to emails. We never had any communication issues thanks to Lori! Jimmy is another Shadow Creek employee and he is truly a gem. He's caring and wants your wedding day to be perfect. I can't say enough good things about Jimmy! My husband and I talked about how great he was for several days after the wedding. The Shadow Creek staff makes coordinating with other vendors a breeze, which ultimately makes the couple's life so much easier! Bottom line, BOOK SHADOW CREEK! You won't regret it!!!

wedding, Lori and her team were responsive to any questions, and always willing to help and provide input. The venue itself is beautiful and provided many options for our guests of all ages to enjoy: lawn games outdoors, beautiful views, a spacious cocktail hour, a beautiful patio ceremony, and a large reception area for plenty of dancing. It was absolutely perfect!

step inside the venue to make our decision of having our big day at Shadow Creek and there is not one thing we regret. The team did an amazing job setting up first outside, THEN moving EVERYTHING inside due to the storm that came. They also had to push back our schedule almost 2 hours due to the mistake of the transportation company that we hired. They still made the entire night magical, they were there every step of the day/night any time we needed something and I didn't expect that but it was extremely comforting knowing we had their guidance and support if we needed it. I keep looking back at the photos because I wish we could re live our wedding day over and over again! I also requested lots of cows..... well my dream came true because we had lots of cows mooing at us in the background while taking our bridal party photos before the ceremony :) If you are considering Shadow Creek, I absolutely, 100% say to sign the contract and trust Lori and her team to exceed your wedding expectations! I am forever grateful for all that they did for us on our big day. The property is also magnificent which makes for gorgeous photos to forever cherish. My husband says he'll re live the day over and over once I get done printing out photos to hang around the house :)

husband and I feel so lucky to have found this beautiful property. Lori and her team made the entire process very smooth and easy. They were so kind and generous to work with and we truly appreciate how Lori’s team was extremely organized. We are blessed and thankful for all the help they provided and we could not have done this day without them. All of our guests were also extremely amazed by ShadowCreek. It is beyond beautiful and everything is SO kept up (inside and outside). Thank you to this amazing team for how much hard work was put into our special day and the flexibility they provided to us and our vendors. I cannot thank them enough. ShadowCreek has our highest recommendation!!!

Creek can be melded into your ideal wedding vision and we were able to house 125 of our guests comfortably. All our vendors had no issue navigating the premises and setting things up in the remarkable event space. Definitely hire Gus (their horse) as well!

ful, and natural barn touches. Our guests were thrilled with the porch accommodations while it was a bit too chilly outside for cocktail hour and Gus the horse was the most charming touch. You will not regret choosing Shadow Creek and its affordable base cost makes it really worth it!

through and were greeted by Lori and her team. The feeling was one full of love and joy, as if we were family! The love they have for their wedding couples and their venue is so unique it only adds to the true value and beauty of the venue. To top it all off, they have an adorable hitched bar that we loved using as a hot chocolate station before our December ceremony, and their property across the street, Shiloh, was the perfect place to get ready the day of and stay the night of our wedding! Thank you Lori and the entire team at Shadow Creek for ensuring our wedding was everything we hoped it would be and more!!

r, between the gorgeous chandeliers, to the wood beams, to the incredible landscape (including cows!) and of course Gus, the horse. Lori and her team were incredible to work with from the moment we scheduled our first tour to our departure after the festivities. My husband and I unexpectedly moved from VA to NJ in the middle of our wedding planning and Lori helped to ensure our relocation did not hinder our walk-through and other scheduled meetings. Lori always responded warmly and quickly to our emails and made us feel at ease, even with our numerous questions. We were provided with a thorough list of recommended vendors, which was extremely helpful in our long-distance planning. My husband and I felt so taken care of by Shadow Creek and are so grateful we choose this venue. Our guests were blown away (many were from out of state and had never experienced the beauty of Loudon County). Shadow Creek, Lori, her team, and of course, Gus, went above and beyond our expectations for a wedding venue. We are so happy we chose this venue to celebrate our special day.

and I went to together before we went to about 10 more because it was out of our and our parent's price range and because I have major analysis paralysis! However, the charm of Shadow Creek kept it at the top of our list and we glowed every time we both takled about it. While our parents were skeptical and needed nudging, they completely understood once it was wedding day and were absolutely blown away on the day of - they loved the venue which they'd all only seen on the day of the wedding. They saw it without any furniture in it in the morning and then watched as our planner and florist set it up and transformed it. We wanted some place that felt elegant not rustic barn-y, offered space outside for lawn games, but was airconditioned inside (a must!). My husband and I really loved how seamlessly you could transition from outdoor patio (with an arch trellis included- such a bonus) to the cocktail area on the side (perfect for corn hole and live music that we wanted) to the reception inside without anyone seeing it. Although the bridal suite is extra, it is gorgeous, spacious, great place to keep personals, and comes with a steamer which we even used! We thought we would have about 150 people but ended up with just under 90 including the whole wedding party. My parents have said that it was the perfect size as everyone had enough room to move around and dance and it did not feel like we were in a space too large even though I'm sure it also looks magnificent with 300 people in it as well. I can't say enough about the responsiveness of the Shadow Creek team, especially Jenna with whom we were working. Jenna is so quick at responding and was so helpful throughout the entire process and provided advice on other vendors as well - she helped up until she handed it over to Lori for the walk-through and the day-of the wedding. Lori was also fantastic and flexible, when I asked to incorporate a little Hungarian culture with palinka, I was tearing when she said yes because it meant so much to me! She even stayed through the whole night until the last family member left! The venue really doesn't need any extra dressing up as they have gorgeous lights (no extra light-up from DJ necessary) and drapery and vintage touches all over the place (and we used every bit of them - barrels with wooden planks as accent tables, the vintage seating couches and seating areas, adirondack chairs, iron seating areas, etc.) Even the bars are beautiful! We loved the hitch bar when we visited but ended up not needing it. One thing I love is Shadow Creek's great command of social media. We perused all of the posts from the past (and tagged posts) to see exactly how others were setting up the venue and what rentals were used. That's exactly how we found our unique head table set-up (two farm tables with the sweetheart table in the middle and the hanging floral installment above it) and my husband's favorite - the blue water glasses. They do a phenomenal job at instagram stories as well. Let me tell you, if you love flowers, the venue is so well kept and full of trees and bushes that already have blooms. At the time of our visit in mid-July the trees were so pretty, which helped us visualize as there were only two Saturdays in 2022 left - both in July! We had originally wanted an August

decisions made for our wedding, we think booking Shadow Creek was the best one. Lori and Jimmy make the experience even more amazing and their hands-on approach makes every moment of your wedding feel special. Our family couldn't believe how beautiful the venue was and many got to get within feet of cows who visited the fence near the venue. We loved shadow creek and many of our family and friends say it was one of the most beautiful wedding venues they've been to. A couple of our engaged friends are exploring it as an option for their own wedding after seeing our photos. HIGHLY recommend - wish we could experience our day all over again!!

e of design palette you choose. We got so many compliments on how stunning the property and venue were. Lori is just simply amazing. She was so kind and accommodating from start to finish and we worked with her for a year and a half!! She truly does whatever she can to make your day perfect. And don’t forget Gus the horse! He was an adorable addition to cocktail hour and all of our guests loved taking selfies with him! Our wedding day was absolute perfection and we could not have asked for anything more! I could not recommend Shadow Creek enough!

re so welcoming and kind that the venue already felt familiar and comfortable to us. The barn on our wedding day was even more beautiful than we envisioned. I will never forget walking into the space before the reception began and seeing the barn lit up with the twinkle lights and candles that we had on each table - it was such a dream. After the wedding, our guests kept telling us how beautiful the venue was, and we couldn't agree more! In addition to a beautiful barn, the grounds of the venue are stunning. After the ceremony, my husband and I took a moment to take everything in and looked out over the beautiful hills and the cows roaming it. It was so peaceful, and an image that I will always remember. Shadow Creek made our dreams come true! We would highly recommend it to anyone.

there is amazing. Lori and her team are extremely professional, attentive, and, flexible. They made everything extremely easy and were quick to respond during the planning process and the wedding itself. Highly recommend this venue!!

taff very helpful. Would definitely recommend.

th and their air bnb across the street was fantastic for the whole wedding weekend. Definitely would recommend couples to get married here!

mpressive, the team that works there is top notch and really made our whole event flawless. From our first visit almost a year ago to our wedding last weekend the team went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for us. Lori and team answered all my emails quickly leading up to the day and Lori even fluffed my dress for our grand entrance! Jimmy worked with us from the walk through to the wedding day and was on top of everything. He even noticed that I was fanning myself after dancing during our entrance and quickly opened the doors to get some cool air in the venue. The views outside are gorgeous and expansive, especially if your ceremony is on the patio, but if the weather isn’t cooperating the rain plan options are spectacular and romantic which isn’t something you’ll get everywhere. We felt loved, attended to, and special on our wedding day and truth be told, I think the venue team had a good time too. If you are thinking of considering Shadow Creek for your event, don’t think any longer, just do it as you won’t regret a single thing. Thank you again!

rn is immaculate, the grounds and view is unmatched by any other venue in the area, and the team helped us have the perfect day; I can't say enough. I highly recommend Shadow Creek and I also recommend using a vendor listed n the preferred vendors list, they are on that list for a reason!

great and extremely responsive over email with any questions we had. We also chose to book Gus (the horse) and the hitched bar which were amazing additions to our Cocktail Hour and many guests praised those two additions! Would recommend this venue to anyone looking to get married in the Loudon County area!

and a beautiful view! Lori and her team were amazing through out the whole process! We alway received a rapid response. Her team is friendly and very professional! Many of our vendors were excited to be apart of our day because they love Lori and know how amazing the venue is.

could have hoped for and more. So many people complimented the venue as well as the venue staff. Working with their recommended vendors makes your life during the planning process SO much easier, outside of catering we also chose mostly vendors who have worked at Shadow Creek and I truly believe it made our day run so smoothly. Lori is so great to work with, from our first visit, to our walk through, all the questions in between, she is even there on wedding day. Although we had planned to get married outside, we actually chose to move our ceremony inside on a hot summer day and we weren't even upset about it because the inside options are just as beautiful as the outside. Cocktail hour out front on the porch, and of course with Gus, is the perfect setting. There's so many details, the landscaping made for incredible photos! We also chose to book the Shiloh which we were so happy with. It gave my girls and I all a place to sleep the night before, a place to relax and do hair and makeup the morning of, and my husband and I spent our wedding night there and it was so peaceful to wake up there.

comfortably with plenty of room for the dance floor. The groom and bridal suites were spacious and nicely decorated. We used them to take a breath and enjoy the appetizers during cocktail hour before we took pictures. We used the porch area for cocktail hour, which was spacious and nicely shaded. Lori, the owner, was amazing to work with! She provided a preferred vendor list, which was helpful. I highly recommend looking into those vendors as they are familiar with Lori, the venue, and are trustworthy. Lori responded to all of our emails quickly. She even came to the reception to congratulate us! I am so happy we chose Shadow Creek - The venue was perfect and Lori made our wedding journey stress free!

ith flawless execution on our wedding day. She was quick to respond to any question I asked her and provided great advice. The entire venue is kept very clean with every detail in mind. Great guest parking & experience, beautiful bridal suite, and multiple options for ceremony locations. Our guests could not stop talking about how fun it was to have Gus, the horse, join us at the wedding! A huge thanks to Shadow Creek for making our dream day come true.

owards venders that do the same. Shadow Creek made sure every detail of our vision for the day was perfected. Thank you Lori and Shadow Creek for your kindness and excellent management.
