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 cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience at The Inn at Leola Village! From start to finish, everything was seamless, and our wedding weekend was more magical than we could have imagined. Stephanie, our day-of coordinator, was an absolute dream to work with. She was incredibly responsive throughout the planning process, so flexible, and went above and beyond to accommodate every request we had. On the day of, she kept everything running smoothly and allowed us to truly enjoy every moment without stress. The venue itself is stunning. Our guests are still raving about the beautiful floral arrangements and how gorgeous the entire property was. One of the biggest highlights for us was being able to host our entire wedding weekend in one place — rehearsal dinner, welcome party, ceremony, reception, and brunch. Having on-site accommodations was such a huge bonus for us and our guests, and it made the entire weekend feel so relaxed and cohesive. The food was also out of this world. From the hors d’oeuvres to the entrees, every dish was fantastic. And the cake — made on-site at their bakery — was absolutely delicious. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how incredible the food was, which made us so happy. We also loved using their salon and spa for hair and makeup on the wedding day. The team there was fantastic and made the morning feel so special and fun. If you’re looking for a venue that’s breathtaking, versatile, and staffed by people who truly care, look no further. The Inn at Leola Village will always hold such a special place in our hearts.

Drumore was one of the first venues we visited. After visiting several others, our hearts and minds kept going back to Drumore. It just felt right. We got married in July on a hot, summer Sunday, Drumore Estate was not only a stunning backdrop for our forever, but also, Marnie and the rest of the Drumore staff really are the dream team! They got us from start to finish with tons of support and stellar service every step of the way! It was incredible to see a list of notes come to life on our beautiful wedding day. Everything was picture perfect, on time, and just the way we imagined. No one even noticed the little issues, because Marnie and her team would ensure everything remained smooth. The staff was always incredibly excited, even when dealing with the stickier details. Thank you so much for everything you did—not just for us, but for our family and friends. Thank you for your patience and your kindness. If we had to do it again, we'd choose Drumore Estate every time. You all are the absolute best!!! Side note for couples looking for budget info: We felt that Drumore had a really great pricing structure/package as compared to other venues. There wasn't really any guesswork into how much the offerings would cost. The venue is based on dates and guests and then everything else is more or less a la carte, which offers a tremendous amount of flexibility for any budget

Where to begin!? The Hertzog family puts their heart and soul into this venue, you and your special day. Kristen, Scott and Makayla were delightful to work with, understanding our unique needs and helping us plan for a safe and special day during a pandemic. They are thorough, kind and truly put the needs and desires of the couple above all. To add, we rented out the entire B&B and our guests truly loved their experience at both the wedding and as a B&B guest.

Look no further than The Booking House. The Booking House was the very first wedding venue we toured and I fell in love instantly. The venue speaks for itself; there is so much character and is such a beautiful venue. The staff are incredible! Brittany is amazing- her communication from the very beginning was prompt and professional, she’s so friendly and I don’t think I ever saw her without a smile on her face. We booked both the day of coordination and in house bartending services and everything was amazing. Emilie was fantastic to work with to help us curate the perfect bar menu for our wedding day and is able to assist with recommendations. Aalea was our day of coordinator and I there are no words for how amazing she is. Whenever someone would ask me about how the wedding was the only thing I could say was “absolutely perfect” and that’s no exaggeration. Aalea and the entire Booking House team were able to fulfill my wedding vision dreams and the entire day went off without a single hiccup ( or at least none that I was ever aware of.) It was truly the most perfect day, with the best team at THE BEST venue.

The property, the house and the staff were amazing. My October’s wedding couldn’t have been better. Thanks to beautiful weather, I was able to have the ceremony in a small grass clearing with a woodland backdrop. There are so many things to admire about the historic house and plenty of space to mingle. I defiantly recommended for an intimate wedding. Thanks for being a part of our perfect, special day

Historic Ashland was quite literally a dream! Every inch of this venue is thoughtfully curated and well-maintained throughout any season of the year. All of our photos turned out incredible with so many beautiful backdrops throughout the property just waiting to be photographed. When choosing a wedding venue we had many different wants on our list and Historic Ashland fit them all: separate bridal and groomsmen getting ready areas, barn space for reception, outdoor ceremony, and more. However what we really focused on as our 2 non-negotiables: great photo opportunities and a good backup plan for if it rained. With so many options for ceremony locations on site, we were covered for our dream outdoor wedding and a gorgeous indoor one too, if it came to that. Some added bonuses along the way that we did not expect: how easy the team made it to execute our dream and leave no stone unturned during the wedding planning process. Throughout the year as I was planning decor and my vision for the day, it was incredibly helpful that the team was so active on social media. I got to see so many different examples of what past couples had done to customize the space for their wedding. It made it that much easier to narrow down my options and truly envision how it would look. Something I would have never known I needed was the built-in day of coordinator every Ashland couple gets for their wedding. We had the wonderful Amanda as our DOC and I was blown away by how she was able to set up all of our decor exactly how I wanted it. And then furthermore, when it came to packing up at the end of the night, it was done so quickly, with nothing left behind. Not to mention, the entire day went so smoothly, and I felt confident in what we were doing every step of the way. I really can't recommend this venue enough. 10/10

We recently had our wedding at Bear Mill Estate. It's a truly beautiful venue and it exceeded all of our expectations. The grounds offer so many wonderful places to take photos. The cocktail/reception area have many unique spaces were guests could relax, dance, and socialize without getting stuck at their assigned tables. And we can't say enough good things about the day of coordinator, Troy, who was amazing at the usual wedding chaos (kids, dog, demanding guests, etc) but also kept our wedding together despite one difficult vendor. Our guests were constantly raving about how beautiful and unique the venue was. If you're having a small to medium size wedding, we absolutely recommend Bear Mill, and would gladly book them for our next (non-wedding) event.

CEI was the perfect space for our wedding day! The conservatory was gorgeous and the acoustics were great for our guests to hear the officiant and our vows loud and clear. The outdoor spaces offer a wide variety of photoshoot opportunities. Because the venue manages so many weddings, we felt that our onsite wedding planner was a little frazzled at times. Nonetheless, our day of coordinator did a great job and reassured us that we were in good hands. The day went smoothly and everyone had a wonderful time. The onsite room block at the Inn was a lifesaver and very much appreciated by our out-of-town friends and family.
