The Stone Mill 1792 was the perfect setting for our intimate wedding day. From our first conversation, the team was quick to respond, genuinely nice, and always ready to help us figure things out. The venue itself is absolutely picturesque—every corner is beautiful and made our photos look incredible. They showed up for us whenever we needed something, whether it was big or small, and made sure everything went smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and we'd recommend The Stone Mill 1792 to any couple looking for a special place to say their vows.

Awarded Best of Zola
The moment my husband and I set foot at The Hummingbird Chateau, we knew it was the venue for us. After our initial tour, my husband (then fiancé) said, "is it weird to want to pick the first venue we look? Because this feels right." We had immediately fallen in love with its beauty, unique charm and the down to earth staff. Angela is a true fairy godmother! She brought our vision to life and made everything run so smoothly. The months before our wedding she was so helpful and responsive; no task was too difficult, no dream was impossible, she made it all happen! You can tell that Angela and her team truly love what they do. They put their heart and soul into making such a beautiful venue, and do whatever they can to help create the most perfect, stress free wedding day for their clients. Truly, our wedding was everything we could have dreamed of and more due to Angela and her staff's creativity and passion. I would highly recommend The Hummingbird Chateau to any and everyone. Thank you for making our day so special, and one we will never forget!
