We had the pleasure of celebrating our wedding at this idyllic rustic barn venue, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the charming ambiance and picturesque surroundings of Southern Pennsylvania. The barn itself is absolutely beautiful, with its weathered wood, twinkling lights, gorgeous chandeliers, and soaring beams that create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The barn has two levels, providing the perfect space for a small ceremony and/or cocktail hour on the lower level, and a large reception on the top level. They provide versatility with both cozy and spacious options allowing us to host our guests comfortably while maintaining an intimate feel. We had our ceremony outside on the luscious green lawn with a natural stone wall in the background. I had peace of mind knowing that if it rained, I would be able to move the ceremony into the lower level of the barn. The space also includes natural stone wall and brick that provides the perfect backdrop for photos, as well. What truly set this venue apart was the stunning farmhouse on the property. A piece of local history, the house was built in 1855. It was the epitome of rustic elegance, with its beautifully restored interiors and thoughtful details. We were able to stay on-site, which made the entire experience even more special. The farmhouse provided a peaceful retreat for us and our closest friends and family, ensuring we could fully relax and enjoy every moment of our wedding day. The staff at this venue went above and beyond to make our day perfect. They were attentive, professional, and genuinely caring. They worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure everything ran smoothly, from coordinating with our vendors to attending to our every need. We truly felt like we were in the best hands possible. In addition to the breathtaking barn and farmhouse, the other main feature of the venue is the wishing well. It's perfect for a unique wedding photo you can only get at Well Wishes Farm. The surrounding grounds include rolling fields, a fire pit, greenery and many charming nooks which provided endless opportunities for stunning photos and memorable moments. Our guests couldn't stop raving about how beautiful our venue was. This venue exceeded all of our expectations and created memories that we will cherish forever. If you're looking for a magical, rustic wedding venue that provides the charm of a barn and a farmhouse, and wishing well, look no further. This place is truly a hidden gem.

Famed, Elegant and Unique! Renovated from farmhouse to Mansion in 1872, Bowling Brook was one of the most significant horse training facilities in the nation boasting 7 Preakness winners.

Bowling Brook Mansion is incredible! This is a truly special venue. We offer our strongest possible recommendation, and our earnest thanks, to Debbie and her staff for making our wedding day more beautiful than we had ever imagined. The venue itself is gorgeous. The mansion is colorful and picturesque; the indoors are classy but not cluttered; the grounds are sprawling and luscious. We held our ceremony in a gorgeous, decorated, wooded grove, and took photos throughout the surrounding farmlands. We were very happy with the amount of space our guests had available to roam and mingle inside and outside the mansion. The ballroom was spacious, and with a cool summer evening, we were able to open an outdoor patio/tent area for guests to socialize. Also, when the evening wound down, we went to the roofdeck with close family and friends for a late afterparty under the stars—a gorgeous night in the countryside! Debbie and her staff are amazing. We can’t say enough about Debbie herself. She treated us like a member of her family, not just another customer. She was also easy to reach and easy to talk to throughout the planning process. She worked to understand our needs and sincerely respected our vision for our wedding, making several accommodations for our plans—such as permitting us to select off-list vendors, working with our family’s arrival time needs, and allowing us to stay in the honeymoon suite before the wedding. On our wedding day, she stayed on top of managing the vendors so that we could focus on enjoying ourselves. We owe a special thanks to Debbie’s staff for helping out in the aftermath of a hurricane. During the week before our wedding, the remnants of a tropical storm swept through Maryland. We were very worried that we would have to commit to an indoor ceremony, but the storm cleared late on Friday night, and Saturday was temperate and picturesque. Debbie and her staff arrived early Saturday morning and worked very hard to get the mansion and the grounds ready. Their hard work made our wedding day everything we wanted it to be. Thanks again to Debbie and her team. If you’re getting married in Maryland, we earnestly encourage you to consider Bowling Brook! (Photo Credit: Tom Bennett Photography)

Historic Ashland was the perfect venue for our April wedding! From the moment we toured the property, we fell in love with the atmosphere and potential it offered for our wedding day. Leah and her entire team were quick to respond and schedule showings, answer questions through the planning process, and they executed our ceremony and reception perfectly. Amanda was our Day of Coordinator and was someone we could fully trust to keep the day running smoothly. Not only were we in love with how the day went, but so many of our guests also complimented how beautiful the venue was and how they enjoyed their time too! Scott and I couldn't recommend Historic Ashland enough to any prospective couples for a wedding venue in South Central Pennsylvania.

If you are looking for an outdoor / garden wedding venue, I highly recommend Prosperity Mansion & Farm. It offers stunning scenery and affordable prices that will fit your budget. There is a charming, vintage bridal cottage and a mancave that brides and grooms can use and enjoy while getting ready separately for the day. I especially love the ceremony area; there are these gorgeous Egyptian doors the bride walks through to walk down the aisle. These types of doors are rare for an outdoor space. The tent for the reception is beautiful and has a unique brick patio area. But I think my favorite part about this venue is all the different little areas on the property, including the gaming area and a bird sanctuary that are so unique. There is a formal garden, a game area, a swing, and even a firepit for making smores. There are just so many places to take beautiful pictures, which I think is important to capture on such an important day. You can really get so much on your wedding day for such reasonable prices. Finally, Debbie the owner, really works with you in many ways.

I cannot recommend Pine Ridge Farm highly enough for your wedding or special event venue. From my first communication with Kristin, I felt cared for - her professional yet warm demeanor put me at ease. Throughout the entire planning process, Kristin and her team were extremely helpful and detail-oriented, answering my many questions promptly and thoroughly. This allowed me to relax on the big day, trusting the Pine Ridge staff to flawlessly handle every last detail. The venue itself is utterly gorgeous, providing a beautiful backdrop for our ceremony and reception. My guests were just as impressed as I was with the lush scenery and rustic-chic barn reception hall.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Has a dance floor for celebration
  • Flexible event spaces

Venue considerations

  • Not for you if you are looking for something nontraditional
  • Large venue, not ideal for small guest lists
  • No on-premises lodging options
My husband and I decided to get married last-minute due to my mom's late cancer diagnosis and terminal prognosis. With only two months, our options for venues were very limited. Harmony Hall Estate quickly became the obvious choice! PROS: Their pricing package is flexible, with lots of options to tailor your experience to your budget. With great options for in-house catering and decorating, you'll save a lot of money and time on both. You can also pay an additional fee to bring in outside caterers. The food at our wedding came from Karen's Catering, their in-house caterer. We enjoyed our dishes at dinner and during cocktail hour. The pretzel cart absolutely hit the spot, though, and was a hit with our guests. Overall, I'd say the food was satisfying. The bar options, like the food packages, are quite flexible. We chose to prepay our bar tab for our guests, which allowed us to be open bar up to a certain price. We were able to add more to that tab via cash during the wedding. The venue itself is beautiful, with plenty of outdoor location choices for your ceremony. The location is convenient, with hotels nearby and shuttles that run you and your guests to and from the venue. The farmhouse to get ready in is gorgeous and historic, making it a wonderful location for pictures. There are plenty of places on the property for taking beautiful portraits with your partner and family. The ballroom is spacious, with flexible floor plans that Jill will work with you to design. You'll receive access to Aisle Planner when you book with Harmony Hall Estate, which is a nice online service to upload all of your wedding information. Included is a service to make your reception floor plan. CONS: I was told the key to the farmhouse would be placed in the lockbox, but couldn't find it morning of. None of the contacts at Harmony Hall answered when I called, and it took us nearly 45 minutes of searching to finally find the key in a mailbox. We lost a lot of valuable time to get ready, which created stress, and on top of that the farmhouse was so hot that my bridesmaids and I were sweating bullets while trying to do our hair and makeup. The temperature inside the building was in the mid and upper seventies, which was brutal with so many people and hot hair tools on. Additionally, while they have plenty of pricing options, I will say that their information package is somewhat confusing and rather lengthy. It could be tweaked to be more streamlined for the sake of clarity. The crab dip that we paid extra for during cocktail hour was disappointing. I don't recommend paying the upcharge for it, sadly. It's also good to keep in mind that you will pay the same price for a vendor's plate as you will one of your guests. This wasn't communicated to me until I asked, so I do recommend that the staff at Harmony Hall make sure their clients are aware of this. Our bartender, though kind, was unfamiliar with many of today's popular drinks and was rather slow, which was disappointing. OVERALL: Harmony Hall Estate is a great venue for a budget-friendly, beautiful wedding! I'd like to add as a disclaimer that our timeline for wedding planning was especially short, so some of the shortcomings when it comes to clarity/explanations of things may very well just be due to our rushed timeline. Since we are based in Kentucky, it made it harder to communicate effectively with Jill and the team at Harmony Hall.

My husband and I got married at Cameron Estate Inn on 11/2/24, and we had the most magical day. The grounds and venue are beautiful. We were having a relatively large wedding and loved the idea of our family getting to stay at the Inn. We rented the entire Inn and had the whole place to ourselves for the day. Every staff member we encountered throughout the day of went above and beyond. Multiple guests have told me how nice all the staff were and that they had a wonderful time. Cathi was great to work with throughout wedding planning and even did some last minute magic to make sure it was the most beautiful space I could have ever imagined. Wish the sound system could be a little louder as we had a loud bunch for our guests, but that's a neighbor issue, not a Cameron Estate issue. We had such a blast and can't believe it's over!

We booked a tour with Cold Saturday Farm on a whim, but holy cow am I glad that we did! We met with Brittany on a pretty dreary day in the winter, and even then I could see the beauty in the venue. It truly is a blank canvas that you can really make your own. Plus, the venue checked all the boxes that were super important to us: onsite getting ready spaces for both us, free onsite parking, guest tables and chairs included, and access to the venue all day. For the price, it was a great value. Brittany did end up leaving Cold Saturday, and we do wish that had been proactively communicated to us, but her replacement, Meredith, was fantastic, especially because she started the week before our wedding (I'm pretty sure we were her first wedding at the venue). But she was incredibly helpful and friendly--we actually had guests come up to us and tell us how awesome she was! The only other thing I wish we had known ahead of time was that the getting ready room the guys used didn't have any furniture. It was still being worked on during our tours, so we didn't actually see the room until the day of. So the room may have furniture at some point. Overall, we loved Cold Saturday Farm. It is truly a hidden gem (none of our vendors have ever worked there before but all of them said they loved it), so I really love that it was a pretty unique and beautiful place to have our wedding.

I can’t say enough about how fantastic of a wedding we had at the Carlisle Pines. Tracey and Deb and the staff were wonderful to work with and helped us not only through our special evening but were there to work with us through payments, planning and organizing. They were patient with us and some of the best most honest people to work with. The venue is in a great secluded location with ample parking. There was plenty of space at the location for our party of 100 and could easily accommodate more. All throughout the night we received so many compliments of how nice the venue was. We can’t recommend this place enough for a wedding or even a corporate event or party. The photos don’t do the place justice for how nice it is. Thank you for everything!

Three Gables Barn is a great place to have your reception. Ted was very helpful and accommodating when we had to change our original reception date. We were able to reschedule and had a fantastic time. The property is very nice. The chicken coop is a very cool building to get ready in and the barn itself has a long history along with a unique layout that is something to see. The grounds at Three Gables Barn also offers a variety of options for photos.

The venue was exactly what I dreamed of. It was so beautiful. The communication was great, and they made sure we had everything we needed. The only down side is that there was no service or electricity/plumbing. Which we were aware of ahead of time. But, if you plan accordingly it is 100% worth it! If I could go back I wouldn’t change a thing!

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so grateful to the entire team at Melhorn Manor for making our wedding day happen!! It's hard to even know where to begin - from start to finish, every detail of the day was magical thanks to the team's hard work and expertise. When my fiancé and I started the wedding planning process, we toured plenty of venues, but we knew right away that Melhorn Manor was different in the best way. We were used to being rushed through other venue tours, dismissed because our wedding wasn't big enough, and generally being made to feel more like dollar signs than excited newlyweds-to-be. But our experience at Melhorn Manor couldn't have been further from this - we met Allory for the tour, and before we took a step through the property, he took the time to introduce himself and the Melhorn family and to share the lovely story of how Melhorn Manor came about. We didn't feel rushed or pressured like we had at other venues, and Allory really took the time to understand our vision for our big day and help us imagine it around the property. We left that day glowing and feeling sure that "this is the one!" And how right we were!! We really can't say enough positive things about our wedding day. Getting ready in the amazing bridal suite and Groom's room was such a fun and special way to kick off the day. As the ceremony approached, it was so clear that the team was all working so hard to make sure all the decor was set up, every detail was thought through, and every moment went off without a hitch. What a special and humbling feeling it is to have so many people invested in making your special day as magical and memorable as you've always hoped it would be - it's impossible to express the depth of our gratitude. Our wedding day was quite a rainy one, but the Melhorn team had a plan for everything. Melhorn Manor had the most robust rain plan of any venue we toured: some venues' plans had felt more like an afterthought, while Melhorn offers an entirely separate building that can be used for the ceremony in inclement weather. It was such a huge relief to feel like we didn't have to worry about adjusting every detail on the fly, and to go into our rainy wedding day knowing that, regardless of the weather, it would be just as beautiful and special as we always imagined. We had and continue to have SO many of our guests, both on the wedding night and afterwards, tell us that this was the best wedding they have ever been to. So many glowing comments about the beautiful venue, the fun had on the dance floor, the amazing and kind staff, and all of the countless details that go into making the day memorable. We couldn't agree more that Melhorn Manor was the perfect backdrop for our special day, and we have the incredible team to thank for all the hard work, attention to detail, and love that went into making this the wedding of our dreams. We, and our families and loved ones, will truly cherish the memory of this day for a lifetime. We are so grateful to have had the absolute joy of working with Allory, Jess, and the entire Melhorn Manor team. They were enthusiastic, thoughtful, kind, and so organized at every step of the way. We can't imagine what our special day would have looked like anywhere other than Melhorn Manor - what an amazing place that will hold a special place in our hearts forever. We simply can't thank the entire staff enough!!

I don’t even know where to begin with describing how amazing Caboose Farms is. As someone that works in the wedding industry, I identified far in advance that I wanted to get married at Caboose Farms. I especially was interested in the property since it allowed us to also host 80 people in their 7 houses for the weekend. We both knew we wanted to make our wedding into a weekend of time with our family and friends and not have everyone sitting in hotel rooms - Caboose Farms was the perfect solution. Once I showed my future husband the venue he also fell in love with it. The houses are so inviting and our guests enjoyed the house layouts. In addition the ample ceremony options and significant space in the event barn for you to use in many different ways was amazing. Our guests were able to enjoy the game room, theatre room, wrap around deck, fire pit, and of course the dance floor!! Now to get to the best asset at Caboose Farms- Colby and his staff. We booked the venue and houses 18 months in advance and he was willing to answer all of our questions about the houses and property. He also provided us with a number of suggestions and solutions. Him and his team made our wedding day an absolute breeze! We had some weather moving in and Colby had both an indoor and outdoor ceremony site set up for us. He and his team helped coordinate everything so that there were no issues. His bar staff were also great for both nights of our event. Our guests complimented both Colby and all of his staff recognizing how much they do to make sure everything goes smoothly. To put it simply - Caboose Farms is a great place with even better people!! We can’t wait to go back and rent houses with our family.

The Mill was wonderful!!!! We got married here on 8/10/24. We met in Lancaster and wanted to get married in the area but neither of us lived there long and we currently live out of state, so we had no experience with venues or vendors in the area. Jen gave me a facetime tour instead! It looks exactly like the photos you see in reviews and even has a big beautiful upstairs level with brides & grooms suites for getting ready (and to serve as a rain plan area for cocktail hour) and a basement for catering to prep in. The Mill required very little extra decorations as the nature outside was beautiful and the Mill has some lights and garlands already hung inside. Pretty much all I had to add was my color flowers and signage. They also provided a list of vendors they recommend (but didn't require you to use). Being out of town, I chose to use mostly recommended ones since they were familiar with the Mill and they were all great as well! The Mill had plenty of parking and ADA friendly access for grandparents. We easily fit our 100 guests and a spacious dancefloor. Another favorite was the staircase for my entrance to the ceremony! There was so many great aspects to the Mill, I cannot recommend it enough!!!
