We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience at The Inn at Leola Village! From start to finish, everything was seamless, and our wedding weekend was more magical than we could have imagined. Stephanie, our day-of coordinator, was an absolute dream to work with. She was incredibly responsive throughout the planning process, so flexible, and went above and beyond to accommodate every request we had. On the day of, she kept everything running smoothly and allowed us to truly enjoy every moment without stress. The venue itself is stunning. Our guests are still raving about the beautiful floral arrangements and how gorgeous the entire property was. One of the biggest highlights for us was being able to host our entire wedding weekend in one place — rehearsal dinner, welcome party, ceremony, reception, and brunch. Having on-site accommodations was such a huge bonus for us and our guests, and it made the entire weekend feel so relaxed and cohesive. The food was also out of this world. From the hors d’oeuvres to the entrees, every dish was fantastic. And the cake — made on-site at their bakery — was absolutely delicious. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how incredible the food was, which made us so happy. We also loved using their salon and spa for hair and makeup on the wedding day. The team there was fantastic and made the morning feel so special and fun. If you’re looking for a venue that’s breathtaking, versatile, and staffed by people who truly care, look no further. The Inn at Leola Village will always hold such a special place in our hearts.

This review has taken forever to write because there are so many wonderful things we want to say about Historic Ashland. When we first started venue hunting, we spent so much time trying to simply get responses to tour requests. We live over an hour from Wrightsville, and my mother lives two hours away, so trying to schedule a tour without being ignored for days by a venue was starting to seem nearly impossible. When we came across HA, we crossed our fingers and sent a message. We got a response before I could even lock my phone, and a tour scheduled in less than 5 minutes. And that basically describes how the rest of wedding planning went for us thanks to their detailed planning guide, which includes a list of preferred vendors, a rental guide for decorations, a timeline for the wedding day, and more. Leah and Amanda always made themselves available to answer any questions we had. From that moment until our wedding day in October 2024, we knew we were in good hands and couldn’t go wrong with the rest of the decisions we had to make. The property itself is stunning, and it was so nice to have various locations to utilize, from getting ready to all the different ceremony locations. Really our hardest decision was where to have the ceremony. We truly have HA to thank for our wedding planning process being so smooth. The entire HA team went above and beyond to make our wedding better than we could have ever imagined. You hear nightmares about how something always goes wrong on a wedding day. The HA team handled absolutely everything for us. All we had to do was show up. Not one thing went wrong. We still have guests texting us to talk about how beautiful the entire day was. Everything was perfect and we cannot thank Leah, Amanda, and the entire team enough. I will recommend this venue to anyone that wants to listen. I hope someone we know gets married there so we can go back as a guest. Not that we need an excuse to go back because Leah is such a gem.

Historic Shady Lane provided excellent communication throughout our wedding planning process. Their coordinator Caitlyn was very good about keeping us informed and addressing any of our questions or concerns. The venue itself was beautifully stunning, with a gorgeous greenhouse and very spacious reception tent. When it rained on our wedding day, they were quick to accommodate and rearrange the setup so our guests could stay nice and dry inside the greenhouse. They also offered golf cart transportation, which our guests really appreciated. While their preferred vendor list had some great options, we ended up finding an amazing makeup artist that wasn't on their list. Overall, Historic Shady Lane contributed greatly to making our special day unforgettable.

We booked the Barn at Mount Hope for our wedding in March of 2019. Little did we know it would be rescheduled twice due to Covid-19. Nicole worked with us through everything from start to finish, twice and even sent us small tokens to let us know we weren't forgotten over the two years. We really appreciated her attention to detail and her willingness to help us in this crazy hectic time. Nicole and her team were amazing from 2019 to 2021 and we couldn't have been happier with the event. The wine was delicious and we made new cider fans out of some family members with that amazing blueberry cider. The Barn was a gorgeous venue for the wedding we had and the Renaissance Faire backdrop only added to the feeling. It was a truly magical evening for us

Our sister found this place and did a virtual tour and from the very first moment we saw Lauxmont Farms, we knew this place was special, but what we experienced exceeded every expectation we had. The venue is undeniably breathtaking, but it’s the people who made it unforgettable. Every single staff member was warm, kind, and genuinely invested in our day. The decorator went above and beyond in ways I’ll never forget, hanging décor from the tent ceiling and making our vision come to life with such care. Our day-of coordinator, Ally, and our attendant, Brandon, were incredible. They were attentive, calm, thoughtful, and detail oriented in every possible way. From our first visit to our final moments on the property on our wedding day, we felt supported, cared for, and truly celebrated. Lauxmont didn’t just host our wedding, it gave us an experience we will cherish for a lifetime. If I could give more than five stars, I would. 1000/10.

We loved that this venue is family owned and everything is on site from catering to bartending, linen rentals and the bakery. It takes all of the stress out of finding individual vendors. Even if you ignore all of that, you cannot deny the absolute beauty that this venue brings. The lights and decor that are already there are breathtaking alone before you even add your own touch to it. This was truly the perfect venue for us and I can't imagine having my wedding day anywhere else!!

My husband and I had our Christmas-themed wedding at the Eden on December 10th of 2021, and I can’t sing the praises of the wedding coordinators, concierges, catering and janitorial staff enough. From start to finish we felt genuinely cared for by everyone in the resort...and I know how often they host weddings, but each and every person on the Eden team accommodated us in such a joyful way; as if we were the only wedding in the building. And it felt like they were sincerely happy for us. Which made the day feel really, really special. Madeline and Felicia, our wedding/day-of coordinators, attended to every last detail of the day, making sure that absolutely nothing was missed. They were present, intentional, flexible, and at times even borderline protective of me and my family. And that’s anything a bride could ever ask for. I couldn’t be more grateful. As far as the planning process goes: as a project manager, I very much appreciated the explicit, direct nature of their policies and procedures. After offering me several tours of the venue (MOB was from out of town and MOG wanted to see it on separate occasions) and answering all of my many many questions via phone and email, we had several formal meetings to comb through all the details and make sure we were on the same page. Maddie was able to help me delegate and manage my expectations, especially when it came to who was responsible for what, and even then bent over backwards to help me and my bridal party with day-of tasks. Thanks again to everyone on The Eden Resort & Suites staff. You were such a crucial part of our big day and we appreciate your hard work!

When we first visited Elizabeth Furnace, it was rainy, foggy day in March, but we immediately saw the beauty. How well maintain the grounds were and how perfect our wedding could be. Fast forward a year and half to December 2025 we couldn't have been happier with our decision to get married at Elizabeth Furnace. This venue was everything we hoped for and more—warm, romantic, and incredibly cozy. It was the perfect setting for a winter wedding, with an inviting atmosphere that made our day feel intimate and magical. The food from JDK was absolutely to die for and is still something our guests are raving about. The staff was truly top notch—attentive, professional, and genuinely invested in making sure every detail was perfect. From start to finish, the experience was seamless, and we received countless compliments on both the venue and the overall experience. We couldn’t imagine a better place to celebrate such a special day!

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.

Landis Valley is a gorgeous venue if you like the rustic farm vibe. Cool old buildings, plenty of outdoor spaces, such a unique place. We got married there in September and it was so perfect—the weather, the beautiful grounds, the flowers and trees, the animals—it was exactly what we envisioned, and it made for some incredible photos! Speaking of, this place has soooo many cool photo spots. Luckily, our photographer David Naples had shot there before so he knew exactly where to go and got tons of amazing photos (if your photog has not shot there, insist they scout it before hand). The team at Landis was very helpful and easy to work with, especially Katelyn, the venue coordinator. She helped us so much with planning and answered every question, it was a huge weight lifted off us. We cannot thank her enough! Highly recommend this venue for a rustic DIY wedding.

We had our wedding at Elizabeth Farms and it couldn't have been a better venue! From the first visit through to the end of the wedding, we truly felt cared for and that they wanted our day to be as special as we did. The entire grounds and Barns are gorgeous and well taken care of. Everything is so pretty that we didn't feel the need to do too many of our own decorations, which meant less work and cost for us. The communication throughout the process was easy and very responsive. In the last two weeks before the wedding, I needed help making some decisions and the venue coordinator listened, answered questions, and offered advice. The actual wedding weekend was just the best time. We had a spacious and comfortable area to spend the day with our bridal party and get ready on site. All of our guests commented on what a great place it was and how beautiful it turned out. The staff is just so friendly and checked on us throughout the night. We loved everything about having our wedding here and wouldn't change a thing!
