Shellie and the Hotel Du Pont team are total pros. They were very accommodating throughout the process and were always willing to work with us to make our day as special as possible. The food and drinks were all terrific and the service was exceptional. We were attracted to Hotel Du Pont as a venue because of the opportunity to host a “Wedding Weekend” and not only did we get to pull that off, but Hotel Du Pont made it a better experience than we could have hoped for. Great food, beautiful ballrooms and accommodations, and a professional and friendly staff made this a home run wedding venue for us.

We had the most incredible experience hosting our wedding at the Carriage house! It has been taken over by Prime Hospitality catering who did an amazing job from start to finish! Our guests raved over the food, waitstaff, and bartenders! Katie and her team took care of every single aspect of our wedding which allowed my husband and I, our families, and our bridal party to be stress free and enjoy the day! I could go on and on about how amazing our wedding day was! Not a single thing went wrong, Katie and her team decorated the venue beautifully, the service was fantastic, and our guests continue to reach out about how beautiful the wedding venue was. It was better than I could’ve ever expected! I hope that the Carriage House starts to see an increase in weddings at their venue because they are truly amazing at their job! Katie coordinated and helped me with planning the wedding out from day 1. She worked relentlessly behind the scenes to ensure we had a great day. The food was the best wedding meal I have ever had and I’m not just saying that because I had my wedding here. The restaurant associated with the caterers “Brandywine Prime” makes amazing food. I will admit when initially wedding planning I was unsure of the carriage house due to the lack of online presence and photos of recent weddings. It is truly a hidden gem and definitely worth considering for your wedding day!!

This property was beautiful, and the owners were wonderful to work with! Nestled in Chadds Ford, PA, the BnB is right next to Longwood Gardens and within 45 minutes of King of Prussia Mall (for any last-minute wedding shopping necessary, as it turns out we needed!).

Brad and Cindy did an amazing job of making sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying our stay, and the grounds ended up being absolutely stunning for our wedding day. They also have extras available to add-on to your package, as needed (tent, outdoor patio heaters, pew seating, and a super cute shutter altar set up!). Normally, venues in the Chadds Ford/Brandywine area are super expensive, but this one was not only affordable but very worthwhile!!! Thank you, Brad and Cindy!!

Rosewood linked us with incredible vendors such as our wedding planner and catering company, and thought of every last detail for us. The grounds were breathtaking and set up for any type of weather. The staff was super helpful and responsive. We used their Photo Booth at our reception and loved it. We received our photos back promptly on a flash drive and well as a book with printed copies with handwritten notes from our guests. So many people ask us where we got married because of how beautiful it looked and were so proud to say it was at Rosewood Farms!

I was so excited when I found this venue and the experience did not disappoint. I definitely underestimated the time and stress involved in planning a wedding, but Peachtree Catering makes it so easy. You met our designated Peachtree coordinator at our menu tasting and that kicked off all the detail start work: food and drink options, color schemes, linens, etc. and they will work directly with your additional vendors (DJ, florist, etc.). Everything is really organized and easy, from digital look books, to table setting mock-ups, all of the little details were already thought of, we just needed to make selections based on our personal style. I can't emphasize enough how awesome the staff is - the day went perfectly, the food was fantastic, the table settings and service were perfect, I can't think of any detail that was overlooked! Our day of rockstars were Ashley and George who made sure we were fed, got to taste every appetizer, and I don't think there was an empty water or wine glass all night!

From our first meeting together to tour the venue, they made us feel valued. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, spacious, and just met all of our needs and wants that we were searching for. We worked with Jean and Sydney for almost two years in planning the wedding. They answered my many questions promptly and clearly. We met with them several times to go over all of the details and reminded us of things we had not even thought of! They worked so hard to make sure our wedding day was everything we wanted it to be and I cannot thank them enough for all of their time and effort. All of The Drexelbrook staff was extremely helpful, friendly, and accommodating. Our guests were raving about the whole wedding and how great of a job the staff did in putting it all together. All of the food was delicious and they worked well with any guests with food allergies or dietary restrictions.

Worsell Manor could not have been a more perfect vendor for us! From the time we toured in September 2023 to our wedding in September 2024, there was constant communication and helpfulness with the staff there. We were required to have a day-of coordinator, and were so happy we picked one of the staff members at Worsell: Ashlee. We stayed at the house on the property with our wedding party and it was perfect. The staff at Worsell were extremely helpful day of - everything was done behind the scenes for us which was great for us so we didn’t feel stressed. I wish we could do the day all over again!

Terrain Gardens is a stunning venue that perfectly catered to our every need. It felt just right for our wedding with 90 guests with both beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces that were easily customizable to align with our vision. We played lawn games during the cocktail hour and reception, and we were able to tailor our reception floor plan to create an atmosphere that truly reflected us. We opted to add many florals through Design by Terrain, but even with fewer decorations, it would still feel complete. The food was standout and was a highlight for us and our guests. The steamed broccoli hors d'oeuvre may sound simple, but it became a crowd favorite. The gazpacho shooters also were a hit. Our grazing table was not only plentiful and delicious but also looked gorgeous! The entree options were delicious as well and received many compliments. We found at our tasting there was a lot of variety from more traditional options to more experimental options so most couples can find something that will fit them. The venue took our guests' dietary needs seriously, accommodating our best man's severe allergies with ease. The late-night pizza and cookie favors were also a huge hit! The staff at Terrain Gardens was exceptional. We worked closely with our venue coordinator, Olivia, for six months leading up to the wedding. She addressed every question and eased all our concerns. On the big day, the staff was polite, attentive, and hardworking. Our attendant, Stephanie, made sure we were never without food or drink and guided us seamlessly throughout the day. The bar staff was quick and efficient, and our signature cocktail received rave reviews. What truly sets Terrain apart is their commitment to ensuring that both the bride and groom enjoy their special day just as much as their guests. After the ceremony, we were escorted to the bridal suite, where we were greeted with a delightful display of our hors d'oeuvres and a mini version of our grazing table. This moment allowed us to unwind and savor a few precious minutes together before rejoining our guests—one of my favorite memories from the day. At the end of the night, the staff thoughtfully packaged our personal items and provided to-go boxes filled with an extra serving of each of our entrees.

Arch Street Meeting House proved to be the ideal spot for our wedding. Jenn was an absolute pleasure to work with and made sure she understood exactly what we were looking for and how her team could help bring it to fruition. They allowed us to close the grounds to the public so that our guests could mingle and sip champagne outside in the beautiful weather. All of the guests commented on how tangibly historical the venue was and how they loved the simplicity and timelessness of the ceremony space. (Which looks absolutely stunning in the few preview photos we've gotten back.) Because it was so much more affordable, we also decided to hold our rehearsal dinner there and hired a taco truck to act as the caterers. All in all, I can't recommend ASMH or Jenn and the team more highly!!

My fiancé and I were looking for a rustic wedding venue, not a ballroom, preferably a venue with space to be outside (weather permitting). We visited a few options in the Philly area and fell in love with the John James Audubon Center! The space offers SO many options for an outdoor or indoor ceremony. They host receptions in the pavilion which is open with huge windows and firepits outside! The site is beautiful, and everyone we’ve worked with has been immensely helpful! After officially booking for our October 2024 wedding, we planned to visit with our parents. What was originally intended to be a quick stroll around the grounds turned into an impromptu tour with the venue manage. She answered all of our parents' questions and even brought out photo books of previous weddings for us to flip through together. With the wedding right around the corner now, we could not be more thrilled with our decision and can't wait to be there next month to celebrate our big day!

Absolutely fell in love with the Morris Arboretum the first time we viewed it as a possible wedding venue in February. There were no beautiful f flowers bloomed and the trees had lost their leaves BUT it was still perfect and stunning. The day of our wedding as we drove up to the venue I started to cry bc it was so much more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Not only is it perfect scenic view but the crew omg even better, they have your back, they make it look effortless, it’s just the perfect most magical place.

Drumore Mill 

5.0

Drumore, PA
  • Up to 125 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $4,700

Drumore Mill is a different world. It is nestled in a corner of the most rustic township in Amish Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The mill was built in 1752 as a sawmill and a grist mill. It sits in a hollow with 30 acres of tall cliffs and old trees to provide privacy, warmth, and natural beauties. There is a pristine creek that meanders through the property. The Fishing Creek supports native trout and other rare small fishes. The waterfall is adjacent to the buildings. There is a hiking trail within the property. There is wetland and much more. The combination of rustic setting, natural beauties, and historical features makes Drumore Mill amazingly beautiful. One has to see it to believe it.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Venue is completely outdoors
  • Provides setup and cleanup
  • Has a glamorous vibe

Venue considerations

  • Does not allow pets
  • Not for you if you're looking for a sleek and contemporary space
  • Additional event staff required
Drumore Mill was an absolutely stunning venue to use for our special day (really weekend). We loved the ease of booking the venue, touring with Thuy, and the promptness and flexibility they offer. An added bonus is the available on site lodging for rental, which we made great use of for our close friends, family, and wedding party to stay in the night before and night of the wedding. We enjoyed the Great Room in the Grist Mill for our rehearsal dinner. Our guests loved how spacious Drumore Mill was, and we appreciated all the attention to detail such as included (but still optional) decor and greenery, and the setup of chairs and other items for the ceremony space. Being able to bring in all of our own vendors at no additional cost was fantastic. The value for renting the property from Thursday to Saturday morning was unmatched and completely worth it. We would recommend Drumore Mill to anyone, and we look forward to booking the property in the future for non-wedding related stays with friends and family.

Curtis Arboretum is everything we were looking for in our wedding venue!! I was amazed and in awe the first time we saw it in person, & continued to be every time we went back. From the ceremony space under the picturesque pergola, to the detail in the music hall ceiling, this venue is one of our dreams. I immediately loved how our day would flow perfectly, moving from the lawn ceremony area to cocktail hour in the garden, to dinner & dancing in the connected tent & hall. Not to mention the getting ready suites, and the entrance under the stage!!! Curtis has the whimsical garden feel we wanted, with classical, intricate, beautiful architecture that makes the whole area feel like a palace. This space truly is so unique & special for a wedding that we couldn’t find anywhere else!

As every bride reading this review will know, planning a wedding isn't easy. You start your planning process reading every vendor review and eventually find things you like and feel convinced these people are going to make your day easier, and perfect but that feeling doesn't always hold out throughout the entire planning process. With Normandy Farms, however, that couldn't have been further from truth. From our first visit to the day of our event, Normandy carried themselves professionally, communicated effectively, and ultimately gave us everything we asked and paid for. To this day, we still received compliments fro our guests on everything from the bartenders (s/o Julian) to the food and event staff who made the day perfect. Thef ood was excellent and the buffet stations offered really catered to our casual but elegant event. The venue worked spectacularly with all our outside vendors and not a single glitch was to be accounted for. The only feedback I provided Normandy Farms regarded a miscommunication about the fabric draping options they provided , but ultimately, for the right price, my vision was carried out to perfection. The second piece of feedback was regarding the billing technology offered. It's 2023, there should be a way to make the venue payments online, not solely via check in person. Having the hotel onsite was an immeasurable bonus and really added to the ease of the day. Our guests still rave about the breakfast buffet the day after.

From the staff to the galleries to the grounds, the Alverthorpe Manor/Abington Art Center was the perfect place to host our wedding. We enjoyed being able to get ready on site and have the ceremony and reception all in one place. Our guests enjoyed the local art and sculpture garden. It was a uniquely wonderful venue for us as a couple who didn't want a "traditional" wedding venue, and as foodies for whom it was really important to be able to bring in our own caterers! Payton, the private events coordinator, was so helpful with everything.

We just had our wedding at Olde Village Mill and could not have chosen a better venue! The venue itself is absolutely beautiful. Dianna & Daryl are a dream team. They made the entire process stress free for us. They are so detailed, thorough, reliable, flexible, attentive, professional, and they truly care about their clients experience. It was enjoyable working with them. Dianna & Daryl handled the vendors the day of (as well as coordinated with them leading up to the wedding) which helped alleviate stress from us. They set up all of our decorations and table settings so we didn’t have to worry about any of that. The venue looked magical and turned out exactly how we envisioned our wedding.
