I can’t say enough about how fantastic of a wedding we had at the Carlisle Pines. Tracey and Deb and the staff were wonderful to work with and helped us not only through our special evening but were there to work with us through payments, planning and organizing. They were patient with us and some of the best most honest people to work with. The venue is in a great secluded location with ample parking. There was plenty of space at the location for our party of 100 and could easily accommodate more. All throughout the night we received so many compliments of how nice the venue was. We can’t recommend this place enough for a wedding or even a corporate event or party. The photos don’t do the place justice for how nice it is. Thank you for everything!

The Manor at Mountain View 
Rating: 4.9 (14 reviews)
Harrisburg, PA
  • Up to 325 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $3,400

The Manor at Mountain View was the perfect find for the owners. The rustic feel with modern-day conveniences was a must. But, what was also a must was to have a venue that the word beautiful could not even describe it but, yet to keep it affordable so that so many people could come and enjoy this spectacular piece of property. The Tavern (Groom's Tavern) has its original barn beams as this was at one time a bank barn. The rustic charm matches the rod iron chandeliers in the room leading to the tavern. In 2007 the former owners built an addition to the facility that speaks volumes, equipped with windows throughout to show off the amazing view... It really is breathtaking. Today the owners have renovated all the rooms in the building but, kept the rustic charm. It brings the family great joy to see so many people happy when they visit the property and to be able to share so many events with the individuals that rent the property is a joy that is indescribable.

Awarded Best of Zola
We got married in December, and until the day of the wedding I was worried that this was a scam because this venue was too perfect. (Which is why I’m attaching non-professional photos for those who are skeptical!!) Upon doing extensive research, no venue matches Manor at Mountain View in terms of price and package. We saved a ton of money thanks to their all-inclusive packages (bartenders, tables, linen, decoration, etc.) Now, it was slightly difficult to keep communication clear because I used email as our main source of communication, so we weren’t as organized as I would have liked. (I tend to be type a and need to know everything that’s happening so I can communicate that to my wedding party and others who are part of the wedding). We were also unaware that we had to bring our own unity candles until the morning of, but Angie was able to take care of that for us. Despite this hiccup, I still want to rate this venue 5 stars because the wedding day itself went SO smoothly. The staff truly love their job and it is evident in the way they treat our family and friends. It was only thanks to this venue that we could pull off a wedding in less than 6 months! And it went perfectly.

From our first conversation with King Mansion, we knew we'd found the right venue. The team communicated clearly throughout the planning process and were flexible when we wanted to walk through the space multiple times. On wedding day, the coordinator stayed on top of every detail and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. The venue itself is hands down the most beautiful and elegant venue we've ever seen, and it provided the perfect backdrop for our celebration. With such a large wedding, it was the perfect size; people had room to move about and have quiet conversational space or dance and have a great time. We felt so grateful to exchange vows in such a classy setting. King Mansion exceeded our expectations and we can't recommend them enough.

Brittney was a hero the day of the wedding and made it so stress-free for everyone. They do an excellent job with the food/drink service as well.

We had a great experience having our reception at the Hilton. The food was amazing and it ran so smoothly (we also had a day of planner not part of the Hilton staff). Many of our guests were traveling and had nothing but good things to say about the hotel and the restaurants in the hotel. We had an issue with our limo transportation and they volunteered one of their airport shuttles to take the groomsman and groom over to our ceremony venue, which was so nice of them. They really will go above and beyond to make sure it's a great day for you!

We were a little late in finding a venue for our wedding but so happy we found a late fall opening with Strock Enterprises on their beautiful farm in Mechanicsburg. Kurt Strock and his team made the process super easy and walked us through all of our questions. Their option for having us provide some of our table top decorations while using some of their decorations helped the budget along. The food was amazing and Kurt's Dad (original Farm owner/operator) is superb at his barbeques - we had a full pig roast and barbeque steak). Would highly recommend.

Hazelwood Weddings was only the second venue we visited and we knew before the end of our time there that it was where we wanted to get married! For starters the grounds are breathtaking and the structures are ready for every couple to add their own unique touches to. The property has two getting ready suites, parking for all guests, multiple ceremony spots to choose from, options for all different kinds of weather, includes all necessary furniture, and is accessible to all bodies. Hazelwood Weddings had everything we were looking for and more, but what sealed the deal for us was the interactions with the owners, Kate and Adam. Kate took us on our tour and was so prepared. She made everything about the wedding planning process feel easy. Kate was very informative but not pushy and assured us she was there to help and encouraged us to take our time in making our venue decision. Adam took care of business on the back end and was quick to respond to all our emails and also sent out friendly reminders for upcoming payments. As an added bonus, Hazelwood Weddings includes a coordination package with a planner from Blake Events. From them we were provided with a wedding planning checklist, a list of suggested vendors, and a portal to upload all contracts. At ninety days out, Emma took over putting together the timeline and coordinating with our caterer, baker, rental company, florist, officiant, dj, beauty services team, photographer, and transportation provider. She was in charge the day of and everything went smoothly and we felt no stress. Our dream of an autumunal sunset wedding filled with subtle nods to our nerdy interests was perfectly us and brought to reality thanks to Hazelwood Weddings. We could not recommend them enough!

My husband and I got married at Cameron Estate Inn on 11/2/24, and we had the most magical day. The grounds and venue are beautiful. We were having a relatively large wedding and loved the idea of our family getting to stay at the Inn. We rented the entire Inn and had the whole place to ourselves for the day. Every staff member we encountered throughout the day of went above and beyond. Multiple guests have told me how nice all the staff were and that they had a wonderful time. Cathi was great to work with throughout wedding planning and even did some last minute magic to make sure it was the most beautiful space I could have ever imagined. Wish the sound system could be a little louder as we had a loud bunch for our guests, but that's a neighbor issue, not a Cameron Estate issue. We had such a blast and can't believe it's over!

How Do Seasonal Considerations Affect Pennsylvania Venues?

Fall weddings in Pennsylvania feature dramatic foliage transformations where sugar maples create natural cathedrals of red and gold around your ceremony. Winter celebrations often include cozy fire pit areas and indoor spaces with floor-to-ceiling windows that preserve those mountain views while keeping everyone comfortable. Spring venues showcase flowering dogwoods and redbud trees that add natural beauty without extra decor costs. Summer weddings typically utilize cooling stations and covered outdoor areas to help everyone stay comfortable during Pennsylvania's humid July afternoons. The season really shapes your experience.

What Should You Ask When Touring Pennsylvania Wedding Venues?

Ask about sound ordinance restrictions especially in historic districts where noise limitations might affect your party timeline. Find out if venues allow outside catering for cultural food requirements you might have. Check whether spaces have dedicated power supplies for entertainment equipment to avoid day-of surprises. Inquire about separate areas for cocktail hours during room transitions so guests aren't left waiting awkwardly. Also confirm whether venue staff assists with setup and breakdown of your personal decorations as policies vary widely between properties.
