We got married with only 7-8 months notice and the venue and staff pulled it off tremendously. From the first meeting, our planner - Kaylie - was professional and receptive to our ideas and needs. We wanted a sort of “magic forest” theme and they delivered beyond our expectations. Weddings are expensive, but we do feel like we got our money’s worth, and I appreciated that there was room to cut costs wherever we wanted - it allowed for a lot of flexibility throughout the process. Tons and tons of variety and options. Kaylie helped the whole thing run smoothly and she maintained a calm control throughout the process. Grayson and the floral team totally floored us with the designs and decor, turning the reception hall into a bonafide dark academia / elven fantasy masterpiece. We got so many compliments on all the smallest details, and she was super receptive to our vision - totally knocked it out of the park. Ryan, Ann, and Bronte - along with the rest of the day-of staff (bartenders, servers, etc) were unbelievably accommodating and kind, going as far as to physically pick up waste from birds and woodland creatures that ended up near one of the ponds we wanted to take photos at. Everyone was locked into our needs without us even needing to voice any of them, and it all felt very personable - I felt very much like they were seeing us as people and individuals rather than just clients. Compliments to the chefs and cooking staff too. The dinners were very good and the cocktail hour apps and platters were awesome - super creative and really tasty! Couldn’t recommend this place more highly!

Flowers, lawns, trees overlook Historic Bethlehem and beautifully decorated rooms make for a picturesque backdrop for photos, ceremonies and family reunions.

I married my husband, Brandon, in late October this past year and we celebrated our Reception at the Wilbur Mansion with Rebecca Ciraco and Christy Jackson as our two right-hand people. Rebecca, our main contact at the Wilbur Mansion, was incredibly kind, patient, and fun to collaborate with. From the moment we met to sign the contract to the final menu selections weeks before the big day, Brandon and I loved working alongside her. Christy managed our event: she handled our signature drink, the linen colors, the layout, and any other little details at the venue. On the wedding day, Christy was the most consistent part of our reception. She made sure we were in the right places at the right times, she bustled my dress with safety pins (when we couldn’t find the little loops and buttons), she took care of talking to our DJ and communicating with staff for us, and she even made sure there was a plate of hors d’oeuvres at our sweetheart table so that we could eat after our photography session! She checked in on us throughout the event and she made the whole evening a BREEZE. Brandon and I are so incredibly thankful for Rebecca and Christy’s attention and help through our planning process and the event itself-- we truly felt so taken care of and carefree. The Wilbur Mansion is a STUNNING venue, but what truly makes it special is its team. Additionally, the Wilbur has so many beautiful places for photo ops, an excellent staff, and the food was OUTRAGEOUSLY DELICIOUS. Guests came up to me complimenting the hors d'oeuvres and meals all night at the Reception. Even now, months later, I still have friends recounting our wedding day and how wonderful the food was! Not only that, but hosting an event at the Wilbur Mansion was also a fair price. I can confidently recommend the Wilbur Mansion to anyone looking for an elegant backdrop for their event!

I couldn't recommend this property more! Lori and Steve met us at the door and hosted an entertaining tour to familiarize us with entire property. I knew from our initial email correspondence which was prompt and engaging that I was going to like them and I wasn't disappointed. Stone Ridge Farm has been in their family for years and you can feel their pride and enjoyment in being able to share it. At the conclusion of the tour they relinquished the house to us and from that moment on we felt like it was our own! From the Carriage House event space where we held our rehearsal dinner to the actual barn where all of the rooms, kitchen and gathering areas are located every detail was considered. They even have a french bar, open mic loft and poker table! We received so many compliments from our guests about the tranquility of the location and how comfortable the accommodations were. Lori has done a remarkable job of merging the historical ties of the Pearl S Buck farm with a clean yet time appropriate design. You feel at home the minute you walk in and there are plenty of spaces to meet as a family or, alternatively, nooks to cozy up by yourself with a coffee and a book. Absolutely stunning with extraordinary service to boot!

If you’re reading this review, stop right here and book The Anthracite Center as your venue! Seriously, Ashley is the best person to work with—she answers emails quickly and concisely, always providing the perfect amount of detail to make the planning process smooth and stress-free. We received so many compliments on how AMAZING the food was for our wedding, and we felt the same way during our tasting. Ashley and the chef, who I believe is her husband, go above and beyond to ensure the food quality is exceptional. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how beautiful the inside of the venue was! The building is absolutely stunning, and it provided the most gorgeous backdrop for our photos. One of my favorite moments was walking into the reception and seeing our family and friends all around the venue, especially upstairs on the second floor—it was such a cool, unique experience. The staff was incredibly helpful, and we are so grateful for their hard work. The pricing is also fantastic—it’s straightforward, includes so much, and is truly a great value for what you get. Even though we traveled from outside of Philadelphia, I’m originally from the Pittston area, and it was well worth the trip! I would absolutely book this venue again for future events if I’m having them in the area. We couldn’t recommend this venue enough.

There aren't enough words to describe what a perfect day Anah and her team created for our wedding. It was more perfect than we ever could have conceived of ourselves. We booked during a transition period for Anah and her business, so sometimes there were some lapses in communication and some crossed wires, but when it came to the wedding weekend, everything was absolutely perfect. (Maybe I'm overusing that word, but it doesn't feel possible). Anah is so warm, funny, personable, and made us feel like we were the most important couple in the world on our wedding day - and also extremely safe and welcome as a queer couple. Every detail was thoughtful and lovely. We used what she grows for our flowers, and she put together a bouquet for me on the morning of the wedding that matched perfectly with accessories she hadn't even seen yet. It's possible she's a little bit psychic. Thank you, thank you, thank you Anah and team for our perfect day. I wish we could do it all over again!

We had our wedding at Hotel Du Village in October of 2024 and stayed two nights at the on-site hotel. I cannot begin to explain how incredibly run this entire venue is. From the moment we arrived, every staff member went above and beyond to make sure everything was ready for our wedding day. Heather initially gave us the tour of the venue in Feb 2022 and was assigned as our coordinator, and I will always be so grateful for my time planning with her. From the moment we booked, she always answered any email in a timely manner, no matter how many questions were asked :). Heather and her assistant were extremely helpful during the day of our wedding as well. Agnes, our bridal attendant was absolutely incredible. She went above and beyond and is always thinking 2 steps ahead of you to ensure the wedding day continues to go smoothly. Above all, all of our guests RAVED about the cocktail hour and entree food.

We cannot put into words how incredible our daughter and son in law’s wedding was this past Saturday night. The entire event was way beyond what we even imaged it would be. The Meadow Wood is an absolutely beautiful, elegant venue (inside and outside) with every detail accounted for. That theme continues from start to finish with all they do. The food was not only delicious but was presented in such a way you couldn’t help but simply just say “Wow". We are happy we took a moment to pause and take it all in - from cocktail hour displays, to main course plating, to desserts that went on forever …. – “Amazing!!”. We appreciate all the work, professionalism and hands on attentive approach from the staff (a special shout out to Juan and Becky!!). None of this could have been accomplished without them working together in the same manner. It was seamless. Thank you, George, John, Tim, Charlie, Frank and all at the Meadow Wood for making our daughter and son-in-law’s wedding “the best day ever “as they begin their new life together as a married couple

From the first tour to the actual wedding day, our experience with everyone at Stokesay was incredible. Maureen was an absolute dream as our coordinator. The food was a huge hit. All of the servers and staff were so sweet and genuinely lovely to be around. The venue itself is right out of a fairytale and allowed for us to enjoy all of the whimsical vibes we always wanted. The recently renovated Princess Suite is amazing. So spacious, wonderful lighting, all around a lovely space to get ready in. We found most of our vendors through the bridal showcase that Stokesay hosts, and everyone on their list of preferred vendors that we patronized were amazing as well. We are thrilled with how the entire process went and will cherish the memories made on our wedding day our entire lives. We're also lucky to live close enough to be able to come back and enjoy the Knight's Pub whenever we want to revisit that magical atmosphere.
