From the reviews

The BRIX on the Fox truly made our wedding dreams into a reality. From the moment we walked into the venue for our tour we knew that was where we were going to get married. The entire room takes your breath away and I love that the ceremony space quickly transitions into cocktail hour and then the dance floor.

Stunning venue inside and out. Exposed brick and timber, huge windows, farmhouse style tables, helpful staff, and delicious food make The Brix a premier space to host your wedding reception, ceremony or both!

★★★★★ — Carey, Dec 2023

I would choose the BRIX again and again and again and again. There is not one single thing that I have negative to say about the venue or their team of people who help to make this day go smoothly.

★★★★★ — Alyssa, May 2025

We cannot say enough good things about The Brix and their team. From our very first tour to the end of our wedding night, they were knowledgeable and supportive. We chose some of our vendors from their recommended list, which was super helpful to have!

Getting married at The BRIX on the Fox

The BRIX on the Fox comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
