“The Stone Mill 1792 is an absolutely lovely venue. From the staff to the grounds, I couldn’t have imagined a more beautiful place to get married at. From our very meeting to our wedding day, TSM1792 team was so communicative, friendly, and supportive. Michael, Matthew, and Allyson were such lovely people to work with. The day of staff was amazing too, always communicating the plans and details and asking me what I wanted/needed. Their landscaping crew is also top notch - the flowers and trees and grass were all in such amazing condition. Our guests are still talking about what a lovely venue it was. Thank you TSM1792 for making our wedding day the best and being part of our journey.”

“The moment my husband and I set foot at The Hummingbird Chateau, we knew it was the venue for us. After our initial tour, my husband (then fiancé) said, "is it weird to want to pick the first venue we look? Because this feels right." We had immediately fallen in love with its beauty, unique charm and the down to earth staff. Angela is a true fairy godmother! She brought our vision to life and made everything run so smoothly. The months before our wedding she was so helpful and responsive; no task was too difficult, no dream was impossible, she made it all happen! You can tell that Angela and her team truly love what they do. They put their heart and soul into making such a beautiful venue, and do whatever they can to help create the most perfect, stress free wedding day for their clients. Truly, our wedding was everything we could have dreamed of and more due to Angela and her staff's creativity and passion. I would highly recommend The Hummingbird Chateau to any and everyone. Thank you for making our day so special, and one we will never forget!”

“The Inn at Leola Village made planning our wedding feel effortless from start to finish. Their coordinators responded quickly to every question and kept everything on schedule without us having to worry about a thing. We loved that it's a one-stop shop with accommodations, catering, floral, and event space all included, which took so much stress off our plate. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the venue itself—the spacious grounds, the food, and the whole experience. The fact that we could stay on site and host an after party there made it feel like a true celebration. Honestly, this place is worth every penny if you want your wedding day to be perfect and easy.”

“Historic Shady Lane is such a beautiful venue, both naturally and in it's structures. Working with Caitlyn and their recommended venues made my life so easy in planning because I was sure the whole day would turn out beautifully. We got married in July on what felt like one of the hottest days of the year, but all of our guests still had an amazing time and took complete advantage of the beautiful landscape and spaces HSL has to offer such as the gazebo, reception tent, green house, etc. When I started looking for a venue, I was keeping in mind something unique, natural looking, and beautiful and HSL was all of those things.”
