Fox Hollow Farm is one of those venues that immediately feels expansive in the best way. Tucked into the foothills of Issaquah, the property blends manicured gardens, open pasture, and refined estate architecture in a way that feels both elevated and deeply grounded in the Pacific Northwest.

Part of what makes Fox Hollow Farm feel so unique is that it doesn’t feel like a traditional wedding venue—it feels more like a private estate with a history to it.
The property centers around a historic manor home originally built in the 1940s, surrounded by mature trees, gardens, pasture, and wooded hills tucked into the foothills of Issaquah. Even though it’s only a short drive from Seattle, once you’re on the property it feels quiet, expansive, and completely removed from the city.
Over the years, the estate has evolved into one of the more versatile large-scale wedding venues in Washington, while still holding onto the warmth and character that make it feel personal instead of overly commercialized.
As a Seattle Wedding Photographer, Fox Hollow is one of my favorite estate-style venues. It's easily accessible, yet feels secluded and intimate nestled next to the mountains. It has this balance of feeling expansive while still feeling warm and personal, which is honestly pretty rare to find near Seattle.
Weddings at FOX HOLLOW FARM
There are a few things that make Fox Hollow Farm especially appealing for larger weddings or couples wanting a more elevated design approach.
The property itself has a really natural flow, with enough space to spread events throughout the day without guests feeling disconnected from what’s happening. Most weddings move from an outdoor ceremony into cocktail hour throughout the grounds, followed by either a tented reception or indoor celebration, depending on the season and overall vision.
One thing I really love about Fox Hollow Farm is that it can support a lot visually. Whether that’s layered floral installations, larger tent structures, custom bars, statement lighting, or more editorial design elements, the property gives you space to fully lean into the atmosphere you want to create.

The house at the center of the property is the perfect getting-ready location for wedding parties and couples alike. With two floors, extra rooms, and a dedicated bridal suite, this house lends itself to that East Coast craftsman estate aesthetic. Call it old-world charm, if you will.
Getting Ready at the house
Fox Hollow Farm is one of those venues where having an experienced planner and vendor team makes a huge difference.
Because the property allows for so much customization, there are usually a lot of moving pieces involved behind the scenes — rentals, layout decisions, lighting, tenting, transportation, timeline flow, and overall guest experience.
When the right team is in place, the entire day feels seamless and relaxed. And honestly, that’s when this venue shines the most.

My couples will typically spend between $10,000-12,000 for a ful lwedding day package that includes 10 hours of wedding day coverage, two photographers, film & digital imagery, aerial drone imagery, and their online gallery with all their best images to share with family and friends.
Late spring through early fall is typically the most popular time, especially for outdoor ceremonies and receptions. Summer offers the longest light, while early fall can bring a softer, more layered atmosphere with the surrounding trees.
My approach is to support both the structure of the day and the space within it. I’ll guide you when needed—especially with light, timing, and portraits—but I’m equally focused on allowing the experience to unfold naturally so your photos feel honest, not overly directed.
A blend of editorial and documentary photography works beautifully here. The setting naturally supports composed, intentional & timeless imagery, while the pace of the day allows for genuine, in-between moments to unfold without feeling rushed.
