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.
