Amazing Venue and Awesome Owners
Best venue and owners ever!! To begin, this wedding venue is absolutely beautiful. The property, the views, and the barn's indoor and outdoor space is all amazing. The lovely couple that owns the barn and the property were fantastic throughout the whole planning process. They were there for everything and went above and beyond what we would have expected from owners. My daughter's wedding day ended up being a rainy day and several days before, we had to come up with new plans. The owners began immediately figuring out things that needed to be done and did them! They added a cover outside the door the bride would come through and ordered a ton of umbrellas. The night ended up being perfect even with the rain due to all their forward thinking. They even set up tables and chairs so it would all be perfect inside before the caterers even arrived. I am sure there is so much more I could write. I highly, highly, highly recommend The Oak Barn at Loyalty!!! Sent on 10/02/2023 Best Rain Plan Ever!

Best Rain Plan Ever!
I cannot imagine a better venue to get married at or better venue owners to work with! Barb and Ernie were nothing but supportive and accommodating through the entire process. They are full of knowledge and experience which made me feel so relaxed and worry-free on my big day.
We got married during tropical storm Opehlia and of course, I was stressed in the week leading up because of all of the complications of the impending rain and wind. I arrived at my rehearsal to find that Ernie had spent the day completely setting up the inside of the barn so I could experience how the day would work with the change to an indoor ceremony. It brought tears to my eyes to see how much work they both put in to make sure my wedding day was perfect, even in a storm. Barb and Ernie truly make you feel like a part of their family and I cannot express how highly I recommend The Oak Barn at Loyalty.Sent on 10/07/2023 WeddingWire

Gorgeous Venue Great Owners!
Book this venue, right now, you will not regret it! Barb and Ernie, the owners, are simply the best. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, and the owners being so genuine, nice, and accommodating is just an added bonus. Even with intermittent showers on my wedding day, I couldn’t have asked for a better day, because of all they did before and during to make everything go smoothly. Barb and Ernie went above and beyond to make sure everything was absolutely perfect. The beauty of the venue speaks for itself, and our wedding day was simply like a fairytale because of the owners. Also, we booked a few of their recommended vendors and loved them all. Thank you just isn’t enough!

Picture perfect wedding venue!
Picturesque views, peaceful and serene setting, beautifully maintained gardens, and gracious and detailed orientated hosts/owners! This is everything you could want in your wedding venue and Barb and Ernie (venue owners) make the process easy. They work with you if you have any special requests. We had access to the venue for the entire weekend which makes the days leading up to it less stressful. They do not rush you through your wedding day events (rehearsal and big day) and work to make sure everything is just as you imagined. The property is maintained to make all your photo dreams come true. The inside of the barn has the perfect amount of space to be cozy and comfortable with your guests without feeling claustrophobic and air conditioning to keep it cool in the warmer months. The upstairs makes for great pictures during wedding activities. The property is not close to a busy road so you do not hear any car traffic (great if you have a videographer) and allows you to hear during the ceremony without amplification. We could call and come up to the venue at any point to do a walk throughs with other vendors, or to measure for rental pieces. Barb and Ernie were there to welcome and chat any time. We loved our experience at The Oak Barn at Loyalty and would highly recommend to anyone. We look forward to being to go back as guests to The Oak Barn in the future.

Perfect Atmosphere with a Personal Touch!
I had the pleasure of experiencing The Oak Barn at Loyalty as the venue for my daughter's wedding, and it was an absolute delight from start to finish. Barb and Ernie, the hosts, were incredibly accommodating and knowledgeable, which was especially helpful for us as newcomers to the wedding planning process. Barb was a wealth of information, providing us with vendor lists and patiently addressing our many questions. She made us feel at ease and when my daughter wanted to revisit the venue and visualize the reception layout, both Barb and Ernie went the extra mile rearranging tables to help us explore various setups and walking us through how the day would go. On the day of the wedding, the weather didn't cooperate, but that didn't dampen our spirits. Ernie's early preparations and attention to detail ensured that the indoor setting was beautiful and intimate, creating a perfect atmosphere for the day and our guests. The bridal suite was a dream with ample space for hair, makeup and relaxation simultaneously, while the groom's suite provided a fun and relaxing space for the men. The Oak Barn at Loyalty is undeniably a stunning venue, and what sets it apart is the personal touch that Barb and Ernie bring to every event. They truly make it all about the couple on their special day, and we couldn't have asked for a more wonderful experience. Our daughter's wedding was everything we hoped for, thanks to the care and dedication of Barb and Ernie at Oak Barn.

Stunning Views, Amazing People
The Oak Barn is nothing short of spectacular – Nothing I say here will be effusive enough to convey what an absolute pleasure it was to get married here. Due to Covid, my wife and I were engaged for 3 years and we only found the Oak Barn after our initial venue fell through because of shifting dates. As the old saying goes, ‘everything happens for a reason’ – I am so incredibly thankful that we had to pass on our first venue because we would never have even found this place. While I could go on at length about why you need to book this place TODAY, the top three reasons are: 1) The Setting: The Oak Barn is nestled at the foot of the Bull Run Mountains and overlooks Loudon Valley. This picturesque piece of land is pushed back from the road and is surrounded by dense trees that were dazzling shades of vermillion, crimson, and amber at the time of our fall wedding. The property is secluded and feels intimate, unlike many of the other northern VA venues which tend to be close to roads or other places of business. I believe the word “magical” was used by more than a few of our guest. 2) The Space: Let me start by saying - the eponymous ‘Oak Barn’ is absolutely fantastic. Built by Amish labor, the barn sits at the heart of the property and lends a feeling of strength, stability, and character. In addition to the barn, bridal/groom suites, the patio, and even the covered firepit lend an air of old-world sophistication and class. The space is also incredibly adaptable - we decked the barn and patio in more flowers than I have ever seen in one place in my life. The effect was stunning: guests were transported to a French countryside, the air redolent of peony and eucalyptus. One thing is clear - this isn’t like “other barn venues”. 3) TheStaff: This is it – the X-factor. Over what turned into quite a long engagement, Barb and Ernie became like family to us. Ernie’s enthusiasm and ‘joie de vivre’ as he walks you through the property is infectious. Barb’s nurturing altruism and support will make you feel as if you are visiting home. These are wonderful people and the importance of the “people” that make up your list of vendors cannot be overstated. If you made it to this point in my review – What are you doing? Hurry up, go book this place NOW!
