Stokesay Castle is truly a dream venue, not just because of its breathtaking scenery, but because of its incredible staff. When we first toured the venue the manager, Luis, welcomed us like family. He took the time to explain all the packages available and even adjusted his recommendations to match our guest count, and never pushed us toward anything we didn’t need. He also shared helpful budget-friendly tips to make our day even more special and affordable. When we returned a second time for a renovation event, Luis remembered us instantly, greeting us with a big hug and even gave a personal tour, which expressed how much the staff genuinely care about their guests. Later, we had the pleasure of working with the new director, Dara, who went above and beyond to guide us through every step of the wedding-planning process. Whether it was through phone calls, emails, or in-person meetings, she made sure we had everything we needed. She was very polite and informative and always had a smile on her face. On our wedding day, she checked in with us multiple times throughout the day to ensure every detail went smooth and perfect. When talking about the food, all I have to say is it was absolutely phenomenal. Stokesay Castle’s menu offered a variety of delicious options, and while we had to narrow down our wedding-day menu, we also got to sample the rest at our rehearsal dinner the night before. Everything we tried was outstanding. The castle building itself is the perfect blend of modern elegance as well as old-time medieval appeal. It has stunning scenery, a beautiful outdoor ceremony area, snd spacious getting-ready rooms for both bride and groom. The gorgeous grand ballroom comfortably accommodated our 112 guests with room to spare, and it was everything we envisioned. Each time I visited Stokesay Castle I fell in love with it all over again, and that’s when I knew it was the place for us.

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding experience than the one we had at the Historic Hotel Bethlehem. From the moment we started planning, the communication was exceptional. The staff was incredibly responsive, answering every question we had and ensuring we were fully prepared for the big day. Emilie, our wedding coordinator, was an absolute dream to work with. She was organized, calm, and truly went above and beyond to make our wedding day seamless. She made us feel like we were her top priority, and thanks to her, everything ran perfectly without a single hitch. The venue itself is stunning, especially with the winter decorations that created a magical atmosphere. From the rehearsal dinner to the ceremony, reception, and even the send-off brunch, every detail was taken care of. Once we handed over our decorations to the hotel staff, they completely brought our vision to life and transitioned flawlessly between the ceremony and reception spaces. The food was another highlight! Our guests loved the variety of options at the rehearsal dinner, cocktail hour, and reception. The ice cream station during the reception was a huge hit—such a fun and delicious touch that had everyone talking. The accommodations for our guests were top-notch, with many of them praising the comfort and convenience of staying at the hotel. And the private cocktail hour for us, the bride and groom, was such a thoughtful and special touch that we’ll always remember. On the wedding day itself, the maître d’ was outstanding. They made sure we were well taken care of, guiding us through the day with ease and ensuring that we could truly enjoy every moment. Overall, the Historic Hotel Bethlehem provided the perfect setting for our wedding weekend. Every aspect—from the rehearsal to the ceremony to the reception and beyond—was flawless, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice.

The huge indoor-outdoor cocktail hour space was versatile and guest-friendly, featuring beautiful bars where Joe the bartender crafted memorable drinks.

Marina the innkeeper was wonderfully attentive, like a nanny to the event, and Craig the event manager coordinated everything with expertise. Utilizing the 18 overnight rooms, we created a slumber party wedding that lingered into the weekend.
