The Best Western Plus Hotel and Conference Center was an incredible venue for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was clear, engaging, and empathetic. They were open, inviting, and highly functional in ensuring our special day went off without a hitch. When we had a last-minute adjustment that needed to be made, they catered to our urgent needs in a timely manner to ensure the event was exactly the way we wanted it to be. They also accommodated us multiple times as we were indecisive about certain details, always remaining professional and empathetic throughout the process.

Our wedding here was just perfect. Dawn had perfect clear communication with us throughout the entire planning process and just was such an amazing help to me. When we started looking for a venue we weren’t sure what our vision was, and we stumbled upon The View from a recommendation from a friend to look at Stoltzfus Homestead & Gardens - so thankful we found this place! When we first reached out Dawn and Brian told us all of their plans for remodeling and creating a bridal suite etc and we trusted the process and saw their vision - which all came together beautifully. We comfortably had 165 guests, were able to have our ceremony outside :) and had so much fun. Dawn was also our day of coordinator - she really can do anything. Everything went incredibly smooth, and she was the biggest help. This woman is just so sweet and genuinely cares about her couples - which is evident through every aspect of the planning process and how she executed the wedding day as well. The required vendors were amazing to work with and fairly priced. We were able to rent items from the design shop to really add to our day. Could not recommend more highly! We just had the most perfect day.

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!!

The Perfect Venue for Our Wedding We cannot recommend Guilford Hall enough as a wedding venue. From the moment we first toured the space, we knew it was the perfect fit for us. The combination of the industrial aesthetic with Art Deco details set the stage for an unforgettable celebration. We held our ceremony in the Beer Garden, hosted cocktail hour in the Beer Garden using the Cocktail Room and Cigar Lounge, and had our reception upstairs in the Crown Room. The flow of the event worked perfectly, and the pictures we captured in those spaces are absolutely incredible. The venue fit our style in every way. We chose a buffet for dinner, and it was amazing. Our guests are still talking about how much they loved the food—especially the crab cakes, chicken, and steak. Our signature drinks were made just how we wanted them, and the bar service was top-notch. A huge shoutout to Chef Mauricio and the entire kitchen staff for going above and beyond to help us curate the perfect menu and flawlessly serving 115 guests. The food was incredible and never stopped coming—our guests couldn’t stop raving. We also want to give special recognition to Dani, the Events Planner at Guilford Hall. Dani made us feel incredibly comfortable from start to finish. She went out of her way multiple times to make sure everything went smoothly and that we felt at ease throughout the process. Her attention to detail was unmatched, and without her, we would have been all over the place. She is absolutely incredible—if you have the chance to work with her, take it. She went above and beyond every step of the way to make our day perfect. Working with the entire Guilford Hall team was an absolute breeze. Every staff member was professional, accommodating, and dedicated to making our vision come to life. We couldn’t be more grateful for everything they did to help us host the wedding and reception of our dreams. If you’re looking for a venue that delivers unforgettable memories, exceptional service, and a one-of-a-kind atmosphere—look no further than Guilford Hall.

Penn Oaks was amazing!! From our first walk thru to our big day, everything was perfect. Carina helped us with every little detail. She was super easy to communicate with and took so much time making sure everything was exactly how we wanted. We loved that they have packages that incorporate all of your wedding day needs. The packages included so many perks like our beautiful cake from The Master’s Bakery, use of their centerpieces and other decor, valet parking, cost check, etc. The day of was a dream, everything went off without a hitch. All the food was delicious, from cocktail hour to our end of the night pretzel and hoagie station, 10/10.

First of all, what a gorgeous venue! We had our wedding reception in the crystal ballroom and it was beautiful. The Eden staff worked seamlessly with our vendors to ensure everything went smoothly. I can’t say enough how helpful Megan Supeck was in our planning process. She was so communicative and transparent. She seemed as happy as we were about our wedding! From beginning to end, she went out of her way to make sure we had what we needed. We also enjoyed staying in the Paradise Suite the night of the wedding. They had a bottle of champagne read for us when we got to the room and complimentary breakfast the next morning. I was so stressed with wedding planning, but Megan and her team really put me at ease.
