Melhorn Manor was truly the most incredible, perfect wedding venue. From the first time we met with Allory and Jess, and throughout the entire planning process, we could tell how much they genuinely care about their couples and their events. The venue itself is absolutely incredible. There are two beautiful ceremony space options- we used the outdoor space, an epic cocktail hour space in the old horse stable that is SO cool and unique, and an incredibly large, stunning reception space. There is also another barn that we used for the guys to hang out in, plus an amazing bridal suite and groom’s den. Everywhere you turn, there are gorgeous photo opportunities. The property has the perfect mix of rustic charm and modern elegance, and it gave us exactly the vibe we were hoping for. We also loved the firepit area - we brought supplies for s’mores, had guitar/chill vibes, and it made the night feel even more magical. There were plenty of great places for bars, too. We had one outside and inside during cocktail hour and then used the indoor bar during the reception, and the whole flow worked perfectly. Our guests were literally obsessed. Everyone kept talking about how beautiful, unique, and perfect the venue was. Melhorn Manor is stunning, spacious, well-run, and truly unforgettable- but what makes it even better is that the people behind it are the BEST to work with. We are so grateful we chose Melhorn and would recommend it a million times over.

The Manor at Mountain View 
Rating: 4.9 (16 reviews)
Harrisburg, PA
  • Up to 325 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $3,400

The Manor at Mountain View was the perfect find for the owners. The rustic feel with modern-day conveniences was a must. But, what was also a must was to have a venue that the word beautiful could not even describe it but, yet to keep it affordable so that so many people could come and enjoy this spectacular piece of property. The Tavern (Groom's Tavern) has its original barn beams as this was at one time a bank barn. The rustic charm matches the rod iron chandeliers in the room leading to the tavern. In 2007 the former owners built an addition to the facility that speaks volumes, equipped with windows throughout to show off the amazing view... It really is breathtaking. Today the owners have renovated all the rooms in the building but, kept the rustic charm. It brings the family great joy to see so many people happy when they visit the property and to be able to share so many events with the individuals that rent the property is a joy that is indescribable.

The Manor at Mountain View was the perfect venue for our wedding day. We could not be more happy with our experience! From the beginning, the communication through email was prompt and responsive, with the team answering all of our questions in a timely manner. On the day of, the venue's large, gorgeous space exceeded our expectations, with the bridal suite and groom's tavern being absolutely perfect. Every inch of this property, indoors & outdoors, was absolutely stunning & perfect for photos. Every guest has mentioned how beautiful our venue was! And the entire staff, especially Ella and Angi, were so kind and helpful, making us feel like our wedding day was as important to them as it was to us. They took care of everything, so I didn't have to worry about a single detail - I could just focus on getting married. All of the decorations were beautifully set up, and they were even happy to accommodate any additional items we provided. I would highly recommend The Manor at Mountain View to any couple looking for a stunning, stress-free wedding day.

Beth Valgus, the catering sales manager of the Harrisburg Hilton, flawlessly coordinated my wedding venue. She accommodated all my questions and concerns before, during and after the event. Beth and her team were incredible and always on the ball with questions and concerns and were always there to problem solve with me. Myself and many other guests had multiple food allergies and they were able to manage each one flawlessly. Additionally, due to weather issues and a last minute switch of guests, Beth and her team were able to handle without a problem. I would highly recommend Beth and the Hilton Harrisburg for your wedding and other events!

The West Shore Country Club is the PERFECT venue for weddings or other events. We had the most perfect wedding day and it was all thanks to this amazing team and of course the coordinator Brittney. She took our dream and made it come to life. The venue was so accommodating, easy to work with and communicative throughout the entire planning process. Brittney was a hero the day of the wedding and made it so stress-free for everyone. They do an excellent job with the food/drink service as well.

I had the pleasure of using the Corn Crib for a CommunityAid work event and their larger Barn for my daughter's wedding. While I can't say enough wonderful things about my experience working with Strock Enterprises, my guests were also glowing with compliments ranging from the charm of the venues to the exceptional attentiveness of the staff.

We had our wedding reception at Iron & Ivy and cannot say enough great things about this venue and the team! The venue is stunning on its own, so very few decorations were even needed for a beautiful reception. The food was fantastic and beautifully displayed, we did not hear one complaint from our guests and they raved about the chicken! Our guests also complimented the staff on how accommodating and helpful they were. Karli, the wedding coordinator, made sure every detail and all of our ideas were perfectly executed. She and her team were incredible! They ensured throughout the entire evening that we had everything we needed. Prior to the event, every detail was gone over and confirmed. They set up and tore down everything, had it all packed up nicely on a cart waiting for us the morning after the wedding. We literally just showed up and had a great time! At the end of the night, we went up to our beautiful, impeccably clean, spacious bridal suite to find all our gifts had been delivered, as well as some left over food in our refrigerator. There were so many small details that just made the whole experience seem so personal and made it obvious the whole team really cared about making sure the night was perfect for us. Highly recommend Iron & Ivy if you are looking for a venue for your next event!

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.

First of all, what a gorgeous venue! We had our wedding reception in the crystal ballroom and it was beautiful. The Eden staff worked seamlessly with our vendors to ensure everything went smoothly. I can’t say enough how helpful Megan Supeck was in our planning process. She was so communicative and transparent. She seemed as happy as we were about our wedding! From beginning to end, she went out of her way to make sure we had what we needed. We also enjoyed staying in the Paradise Suite the night of the wedding. They had a bottle of champagne read for us when we got to the room and complimentary breakfast the next morning. I was so stressed with wedding planning, but Megan and her team really put me at ease.
