The Stone Mill 1792 was incredible. The staff were incredibly responsive, kind, helpful and attentive. We are in disbelief how easy our big day was. The venue is stunning for any event, big or small. Planning my wedding out of state was difficult already, but the staff at TSM were beyond amazing. A lot of venues in the area are VERY expensive for what you receive day of. At TSM, I feel that for the price, I received more than I could have expected. Expectations were exceeded and beyond, and I would recommend this location to anybody. One of my favorite parts of the venue is the reception area. I’ve been to weddings that are in barns or other older buildings. These locations are crammed, difficult to navigate, have awkward seating, and very limited views. At TSM, their reception area is huge and roomy. I loved that I could look out and see all of my friends and family without having a wooden beam in my way. There was enough space for guests to get food, dance, talk, and be comfortable in the space without stepping on toes and dresses.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do I even begin?? The Drumore Mill is an oasis. Surrounded by farm land and nestled in a dark green wood, it feels like you’ve entered into a fairytale land. The moment my fiancé (now husband!) and I stepped onto the Drumore Mill property, we knew we needed to exchange our vows here. We got married in the Grist Mill beside the waterfall. I always wanted an indoor/outdoor wedding but hated the idea of a tent wedding. The Grist Mill building is an open air but covered area with tall wooden beams and lots of open windows to allow sunlight in. Thuy was a pleasure to work with throughout my long engagement. She answered all my questions and even showed up the day of my wedding to wash windows at the reception barn! You can tell she really cares about the Drumore Mill. Look, there are a lot of places you can get married. But the Drumore Mill is special because you can return to it. They have charming rustic houses on property you can stay in. You can host a family reunion or a smaller vow renewal ceremony or just go on an anniversary trip there. How many other couples do you know who can stay the night at the place they got married? Because that’s what my husband and I did. We spent our wedding night on property, steps away from where we exchanged vows. We got to wake up the next morning and walk the beautiful grounds of the Drumore Mill taking in all the scenery and relive the memories from the day prior. One of our guests approached my husband during the wedding and said “I want my daughters to get married here”. You can’t get a better compliment than that! So in short, if you’re looking for a one of a kind place, where nature and architecture blend together, and you can return there to reminisce with loved ones—then consider the Drumore Mill. See for yourself what beauty I’m talking about. Because I know my husband and I can’t wait to go back!

Choosing The Inn at Leola Village as our wedding venue was the best decisions we made! From the very start, the staff was incredibly responsive and accommodating, working closely with us to turn our wedding vision into reality. The Italian-inspired, rustic charm of the inn created such a warm and intimate setting—our guests are still raving about it. We tied the knot in early June, and the beautifully manicured grounds were absolutely stunning. Every member of the staff was attentive and ensured the day flowed seamlessly. Our day-of coordinator, Stephanie, was a constant source of support and guidance throughout the entire planning process. Tracie, the florist, truly exceeded our expectations in bringing our floral dreams to life. The food was exceptional—delicious, beautifully presented, and very accommodating to all of our guests’ needs. We’re beyond grateful to the entire team at The Inn at Leola Village for making our wedding day everything we hoped for and more.

As soon as I entered the lobby of The Booking House I knew I found the location where I wanted to get married. From the exposed brick walls, wooden beams and floors, the super cozy bridal suite and bachelor room for the men, not to mention the extraordinarily friendly and helpful staff, I was blown away by this venue. All of my guests raved about how unique the venue was and the beauty of the place. Brittany was an angel and so incredibly helpful in planning and organizing, which was even more meaningful as an out-of-state bride, she took away my worries and worked with my tight schedule in touring the venue and having our meeting virtual. I would recommend to everyone to have their wedding at The Booking House!
