“Mary Neifert was the wedding coordinator for my daughter's wedding at Chisholm Vineyards. As someone who has worked in the service industry many years ago, I know just how much it took to pull off what Mary pulled off with my daughter's wedding. It is no small feat to deal with so many people - from the bride and groom - to the bridal party to the vendors to the guests to your staff, etc. The organization it takes, the attention to details, the discipline, the patience, the ability to roll and adjust as things changed, to be able to think outside of the box, to be available for the many questions that the bride and mother of the bride had along the way, to corralling a very large wedding party and all of the many other people who were floating around - Mary made everything go flawlessly and gave my daughter and her now husband and myself so much peace from the very beginning to the finish line. Mary even calmed my husband and gave him so much peace as he was preparing to officiate our daughter's wedding. He even said Mary was a calming presence and helped him to see a solution when he couldn't see the forest for the trees. He was having problems with his tuxedo studs and Mary very quickly helped solve the problem. Mary's thoroughness in everything she did was incredible. She truly has a gift for what she does. I know Mary was working well into the night (well past midnight and then we met her the next morning to get the remaining vases we left so I don't think she slept much!) to clean up and put everything back where it needed to go. She gave 100% of herself throughout this process and it was very evident that she truly and genuinely cared about the bride and the groom, and she protected them when they needed it most. Her professionalism and drive for excellence is unmatched. I would highly recommend Mary and Chisholm Vineyards to any bride and groom! I really do want everyone to know what a valuable asset she is!”

Tiffin Farm is a small, regenerative farm in Free Union, Virginia. Originally built in the late 1970s, the newly renovated barn is a grand and inviting location for wedding ceremonies and receptions. Today, Tiffin Farm continues to be a working farm as we raise a herd of Red Devon cattle and steward the land.

Guests are able to watch the sunset over the Blue Ridge while seated during the reception. Just steps from the barn, the Ceremony Lawn is framed by quintessential Virginia views and is equipped with power outlets for a hassle-free ceremony. Our priority is to work with couples and their families to create a smooth and memorable wedding experience. We hope to see you soon at Tiffin Farm.

“The Barn at Tiffin Farm was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. The owners were incredibly responsive, kind, and easy to collaborate with throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself is absolutely stunning - the large barn doors open up to reveal a beautiful rustic space with breathtaking scenery all around. The bridal suite is especially impressive, with a luxurious and calming atmosphere. On the night of our wedding, when a storm rolled in at the end of the night, the owner even went out of his way to personally drive guests to their cars in his golf cart to keep everyone dry. We are so grateful for the Barn at Tiffin Farm team and the role they played in making our special day absolutely perfect.”
