“I don't know if I can put into words how meaningful Drumore Mill is to us after having our wedding there this past weekend. The venue is simply magical. So many of our guests commented on the beauty of the venue and the pictures don't do it justice. We used the historic house for our rehearsal dinner and stayed over night on the main property after our wedding. Every single space has been thoughtfully curated by Thuy and her team. Thuy was a joy to work with and truly cares about the experience every couple has. We already want to go back! Drumore also allows you to choose all your own vendors which was important to us. I also was adamant about having our close family and friends staying close by after our wedding so this was perfect for us! We also got to have a farewell coffee and breakfast in the Grist Mill on Sunday morning which was a lovely farewell for everyone who had traveled so far. We held our ceremony in the pavilion, cocktail hour in the cave, and reception in the barn. Everything was beyond perfect! We only toured one venue because we knew immediately this was the one.”
