    5 star wedding venue!

    Keely and Tara, the event managers were absolutely amazing to work with. They were responsive, kind professional and offered to help even beyond our expectations. The entire team from receptionists to the chef provided excellent quality of service and always made my family feel at home each time we visited. The chandler barn has to be one of the most beautiful reception rooms I have seen. The newly built pavilion was perfect for our wedding ceremony and we were very fortunate to be the first couple getting married there. We received so many compliments from our guests about the venue and the food. I will always be grateful to chef Raymond for the love he puts in his meals. Our guests are still raving about the signature crab dip and salmon! Clydes is definitely a 5 star venue in my book and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for an elegant setting for their event.

    AMAZING venue for smaller ceremonies!

    We are incredibly happy with how well Tara was able to help us plan our intimate ceremony with family (10 people total) within just a few weeks! We got a gorgeous semi-private space on the outdoor patio and the details even for a smaller event like ours were impeccable: the ceremony area setup was beautiful, Tara took care to coordinate our lunch menu colors to our theme, and the catering staff were able to accommodate a request for a particular type of pasta for the vegetarians in the group as well. The event staff were organized and ensured that the scheduling of our ceremony, prosecco toast, and lunch went smoothly. We would absolutely recommend hosting a wedding here, and wanted to give a double thumbs up particularly for anyone looking to host a smaller wedding or elopement!

    Delivered on High Expectations!

    When I started thinking about my wedding venue, I knew what I did not want: a Hotel Ballroom wedding. Ironically, I work for a very busy Hotel Wedding Venue, so I also couldn’t risk a non-traditional reception where servicing larger groups of people wasn’t something they would be up to task with; Clyde’s Willow Creek Farm proved to be perfect venue for my visions. They have both an Event Sales and Events Coordinator, so there is always someone to quickly communicate with and answer questions. From the initial walk-through, to our efficient two-hour planning call, to the day before décor drop-off, I felt extremely well taken care of. We hosted a brunch reception of just over 100 guests- the food was hot and delicious, and the drinks were flowing. In attendance, we hosted over a dozen event professionals as part of our guest list, and I was nervous that Clyde’s would be up to the expectations of the people in the room- Tara, Keeley, and the rest of the team 100% delivered! If you are considering a restaurant or non-traditional venue, just a few of my take-aways: there’s something exciting about walking into a restaurant full of strangers, and having people cheer for you and your new partner; in addition to the event space, this venue has so many beautiful outdoor areas, perfect for a few couple photos or staged group shots; and something that is often overlooked is restroom availability, the restrooms are clean and spacious, very comfortable for hosting a large group of guests. Clyde’s Willow Creek Farm is a go-to wedding spot for the NOVA area and should be on any couple’s list to check out!

    One stop shop venue that made my wedding feel like a fairytale!

    I CANNOT say enough great things about Clyde's!!! I really wanted to keep things as simple and efficient as possible buy getting a venue that would be what I would consider to be "all inclusive" in terms of reception necessities (tables, chairs, food, silverware, glassware, dishes, linens, etc.). CHECK! I also really wanted our wedding reception to have an elevated simple yet elegant garden party aesthetic. DOUBLE CHECK! Plus, I used to show horses and am an avid equestrian, so the fact that they have an equestrian theme was just the icing atop of the cake! When we first went to look at the space, I fell in love with it! We ended up reserving the outdoor terrace for the reception and also. the two rooms upstairs for our wedding party to get ready in. The outdoor terrace was absolutely gorgeous and the reflecting pool was just spectacular! Having the rooms upstairs to get ready was great because then we had a place to escape and also to leave our belongings safely and securely. When getting ready, they had the waitstaff come upstairs and we could order anything off of the brunch menu. That was a lot of fun and made everything so relaxed and enjoyable! Tara and Keeley were absolutely fantastic! Super professional, super quick with responses, and great upbeat personalities! They really helped make our wedding day so spectacular! Another bonus, since we reserved the outdoor garden terrace, they also reserved and indoor option for us as well for a rain plan - FREE OF CHARGE! Everyone at the wedding was saying how great the food was, the atmosphere, the staff, everything was superb! I honestly can't think of anything I would change. I can't say enough great things about Clyde's I HIGHLY recommend them! I will definitely be recommending them to anyone looking for a venue for a wedding or any event, as they have so many different options for event spaces!! Go check out Clyde's NOW!! You won't regret it!

    Hospitality & Professionalism

    We can't say enough good things about Tara & Keeley from Clyde's Willow Creek. They were responsive, professional, and thoughtful when helping us plan our rehearsal dinner. They laid out all the options and helped guide us through making the necessary choices. Their guidance and hospitality made our night successful through careful planning and a well-planned timeline.

    Surprise Birthday Party Dinner

    From the moment I contacted the event staff they were responsive and helped me plan and execute a surprise 50th birthday dinner. The room was beautiful and everyone loved their meals. The night of the event the staff were very helpful and everything went very smoothly. Would definitely have another event here!

    Perfect wedding venue!

    We must have looked at 15 - 20 venues and it was absolutely clear to us that Willow Creek was hands down the best fit for our wedding. Not only was the venue, food, and decor amazing but the service provided by all the staff (especially Tara our main point of contact) was world class!

    We had about 50 - 60 anticipated attendees and the ability to have the ceremony (outside), cocktail hour, and reception all in the same venue made it so easy! Also not having to worry about catering, linens, etc was super helpful!

    From the first meeting Tara was extremely friendly and accommodating. She worked closely with us to ensure that the planning experience was seamless and the execution went as planned. Everyone was raving at how amazing the food was, how the service was wonderful, and how beautiful the Chandler Barn was. Tara went above and beyond to ensure the day went just as we imagined it - kudos to her and her team. Would absolutely recommend!

    Clyde's Willow Creek Farm is a Hidden Gem

    My husband and I truly felt like we found a hidden gem in Clyde's Willow Creek Farm for our wedding. The Chandler Barn was exactly what we were looking for with all its charm. We only added centerpieces, flowers, and small table decorations. So easy! They also have an outdoor option if you prefer that. Plenty of flexibility and additional spaces that can be rented. The food and service was incredible (everyone raved about it) since it is a well-run restaurant as well. Nonetheless, our event felt very private and special. The event manager (we love you Tara) was very easy to work with and communicate with. She really took the stress out of much of the planning and day-of logistics. Clyde's is able to accommodate many types of requests and easily take care of a lot of the little details (e.g., linens, chairs, setup, menus, table numbers, etc.) that other places may make you responsible for. It was a huge relief. I can't express how happy we were with Clyde's. Our wedding felt perfect, and we will always be grateful. Honestly, we can't wait to go back for more food too!

    Clyde's of Willow Creek Farm is amazing!

    We held a rehearsal dinner in the Roxbury Main room at Clyde's. The wait staff was very attentive, professional, and kind. They went out of their way with impeccable service. The food was awesome and the room was lovely. I can't say enough good things about this restaurant for holding an event. You will not be disappointed!!

    Clyde's Ashburn Could Not have Been Better

    Clyde's was recommended by a friend who raved about his rehearsal dinner experience. My expectations were high and Clyde's exceeded! No surprises! Food was outstanding! Wait staff were spot on. Bartenders were quick and polite. Venue was beautiful. Coordinator was flexible to meet our needs. Would book here again in a minute and encourage anyone reading this to use this facility. Could not have gone better!

    Best Reception Ever

    We had our reception at Clyde's Willow Creek Farm at the beginning of October. We had a Catholic ceremony and decided to have our reception here, and it was the best decision we made throughout the whole wedding process. Tara and Keeley made the process so smooth and were able to answer any and every question I had leading up to the day. We didn't have to worry about catering, linens, tables, etc because they were included, which was a relief to not worry about. On the day, not only was Tara there to support and make sure everything ran smoothly but the other staff were accommodating and friendly. And the food?!?! Amazing! Wonderful! Scrumptious! The environment of Clyde's was warm, and welcoming and felt like we were at home there. My wedding was exactly how I pictured it would be and that wouldn't have been possible without Clyde's Willow Creek Farm. You'd be crazy if you didn't consider it for your wedding.

    Wonderful Rehearsal Dinner and Welcome Party

    We held our rehearsal dinner and welcome party in the Chandler Barn. The room has a real wow factor. It's spacious yet intimate, beautiful, and the bar is right there :-) In addition to the space, the staff is amazing. We had to reschedule our wedding three times from May 2020 due to the pandemic, and everyone was easy to work with and accommodating. We'd especially like to thank Tara who stuck with us for almost three years of planned and helped ensure we had a smooth and wonderful event. Would highly recommend this space and team to anyone.

    Beautiful June Wedding!

    Working with Clyde's event coordinator Tara was a pleasure.
    Her flexibility and professionalism was top notch. The wedding was both beautiful and fun. The guests couldn't stop complimenting the food, the staff, and the venue. Customer service was excellent. We especially appreciated Carl who was attentive and reassuring. Overall our experience was fantastic particularly given that we had to postpone several times because of the pandemic and Clyde's supported us through it all.

    Outstanding Wedding Venue

    From the moment we met Tara, the Event Manager at Clyde's, we knew this venue would be the perfect fit for us. She made the planning process simple and stress-free, and she was always glad to answer any questions we had. As soon as we entered the space on our wedding day, the entire staff was responsive and provided a calming presence throughout our setup, ceremony, and reception. Since the wedding day, we have received so many compliments from our guests about the venue space, the beautiful atmosphere, and of course the delicious food! In particular, the staff at Clyde's was very accommodating with our guests' food allergies, and many of our guests said it was the best meal they'd ever had at a wedding. Celebrating our marriage at Clyde's was one of the best decisions we've ever made, and we highly recommend this venue!!

    Incredible food and service

    My (now) husband and I held our rehearsal dinner at Clyde’s the food was incredible. We had a buffet style- several salads, salmon, rice, veggies, calamari, and Buffalo chicken wings. Pastries and coffee for dessert as well as an open bar. The evening went flawless and Tara and her team were so hospitable. They accounted for any food allergies, designed menu place cards based on our wedding colors. HIGHLY recommend.

    Amazing Wedding Venue and Staff!

    We had our wedding at WCF on 4.16.2022 and it was amazing. Tara, the Event Manager, is so responsive, helpful, and flexible. She took care of everything on her end and made the process so easy for us. The wedding day went so smoothly and our guests raved about the food and the unique look of the barn where we had the reception. They also noted the attentiveness of the staff. We felt completely taken care of and it was a beautiful day. I would highly recommend WCF to any bride looking for a venue!

    Our wedding

    Tara was so easy to work with, she didn’t miss any detail we requested for our wedding day to be perfect.
    The whole staff was AMAZING, the food was EXCEPTIONAL and of course the place is really pretty and warm.
    We would recommend Clyde’s Willow not only for your wedding venue but any special occasion.
    We couldn’t be happier on how our wedding turned out.
    Thanks again to Tara and the rest of Clyde’s staff!!!

    Beautiful Venue & EXCELLENT Service

    The Barn room was perfect for our intimate wedding. It was the perfect location to host the wedding, cocktail hour and reception. The food was delicious, the staff was more than accommodating and everyone had a fantastic time. I want to get married all over again so that I can go back to that perfect night at Clyde's. I can't say enough thank you's to Tara and the event management team for their calm composure, friendly faces and the tequila shot right before I walked down the isle. They knew what everyone needed before we did! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

I would highly encourage you to utilize this facility for your next special event. You will not be disappointed!

    Magical Expirence

    I always knew that one day I would get married at Clydes at Willow Creek Farm. I booked them and worked with their event manager Tara starting in October 2020 during COVID. She was great and keeping in contact with me as we lead up to the wedding, to include having a food tasting to help us decide our main menu. She would always answer my emails within 24 to 48 hours and also recommended vendors for me when I didnt know any to use. They were also very flexiable when it came to speacialty bride and groom drinks. One thing I loved about Clydes was knowing that they would be able to pull off the wedding rain or shine, with outdoor being the preference but their main hall can be used for the wedding as well. I got many compliments on my choice of venue throughout the evening of our wedding and people commented on how it truly looked like fairy tale.

    Clyde's Willow Creek Farm is great!

    Clyde's Willow Creek Farm was the perfect venue for our wedding! We had a 70-person outdoor ceremony on their willow tree-lined lawn followed by cocktail hour and an indoor reception in the Chandler "barn."

    The venue was rustic yet elegant. Clyde's food was delicious -- everyone raved about it. The waitstaff was great -- attentive without being overbearing. The event coordinator was very organized and responsive and made this process as smooth as possible for us. What's more, the venue was also a great value -- one of the more affordable DC-area options that I found during my research.

    We had our rehearsal dinner at Clyde's as well, in the Fox and Hound room. If you already have a wedding venue, I would consider Clyde's as a rehearsal dinner option -- or as the place for any event. All the praise I have for the wedding day applies to the rehearsal dinner as well.

    Finally, we appreciated how by choosing Clyde's, we could work with one vendor instead of multiple.

    I highly recommend Clyde's Willow Creek Farm to any couple searching for a DC-area venue.

    My groom kept saying, Clyde's. He was so right!!

    I worked with Tara, who was very responsive, providing quick answers and reassurances for all my questions. Menu and event planning was made very easy for us by selecting one of their private rooms. Ours had a bar within it, which we really liked, and I liked the decor which lent a real Loudoun County, VA feel for our guests. There were plenty of service people, even with three private events going on that day. The brunch food was truly delicious, we were very happy with our three main selections and what Clyde's included. We wanted a simple, quick civil ceremony after brunch, and again wanted that VA feel. We were amazed how effortlessly the venue was able to accommodate exactly what we wanted and needed to complete our booked time there. Very satisfied.

    Amazing Welcome Dinner

    We chose Clydes for our Welcome Dinner because of its size, location and its beauty. What we were most impressed with was the amazing staff and amazing food! Tara was so easy to work with! We had a dinner for 164 guests in the Chandler Room and she helped to arrange the room for the best flow and helped with the menu, etc. The night of staff couldn't have been kinder. They payed special attention to all the guests. And they were so kind and helpful to the grandparents. The crab cakes are out of this world- worth the up-charge! And the bartenders were on point with all of the special drink requests. We couldn't have asked for anything better for our evening!
