Awarded Best of Zola
The Stone Mill 1792 was the perfect venue for our baby shower. From the very beginning, their communication was timely, high-quality, and friendly, which put us at ease throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself is truly picturesque, with its charming, beautiful historic stone mill and surrounding natural scenery. It felt magical and cozy, creating an intimate and memorable atmosphere for our celebration. In fact, this venue has a special meaning for us, as it's where my husband proposed to me during our surprise baby shower - a moment that made our day even more special. We are so grateful to the Stone Mill 1792 team for helping to make our wedding day absolutely perfect.

We chose this wedding venue for two main reasons, 1. Having everything in one location which made the day and planning 10x easier! 2. The Terrace. Our wedding day weather could not have been more perfect and guests were able to enjoy the terrace the entire evening. Monica was amazing to work with as was the rest of the staff. Food was delicious, we saw many clean plates while making our rounds. I loved that the spaces themselves were beautiful, so we really didn't need much decor and they had a lot we could borrow (e.g. arch, centerpieces, table numbers). Highly recommend!
