The Eighty Four
A Loving Family Farm
Derek and Allie Mannon and their four children have put all of their heart into revitalizing Derek's grandfather's former dairy farm, creating a special wedding and event venue on the cherished 84 acres. The farm’s 1946 dairy barn is now a renowned venue featuring its original bones and modern amenities.
Couples swoon over the barn's 3,500-square-foot patio, handcrafted timber-frame pergola and romantic draping bistro lights. A beautiful deck overlooks the patio providing access to the barn’s loft and the farm's original silos were renovated and turned into the venue's restrooms. Photographers affectionately point their lenses at the timber frame and white, crisp walls with modern industrial light fixtures.
With the goal of being a one-stop-shop venue, bookings include a wedding coordinator, wedding timeline and parking attendant as well as many rental items like all tables and seating. Wedding coordinators ensure seamless event flow and focus and couples are invited to host their rehearsal events on the farm as well.

Things To Do
Built into the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains, this naturally stunning region is rich with sloping green hillsides and deep lively forests. A treasure trove for hiking, camping, fishing, and wildlife viewing, outdoor lovers flock here and motorists live for the pull offs and overlooks dotting the twisting Blue Ridge Parkway, one of America's most breathtaking drives. The area’s beauty inspires the artists and craftspeople that comprise the backbone of Blue Ridge Highlands’ charming small towns and historic sites, their galleries, artisan festivals and concerts casting a wide audience net. Don't miss the Barter Theatre in Abingdon, known as the State Theatre of Virginia, or the Blue Ridge Music Center, celebrating the region’s musical traditions. Autumn visitors are greeted by blazing red, orange and gold mountains and scenic train rides aboard the Virginia Creeper Trail or the New River Train deliver a spectacular point of view.
