    We are so grateful to the entire team at Melhorn Manor for making our wedding day happen!! It's hard to even know where to begin - from start to finish, every detail of the day was magical thanks to the team's hard work and expertise. When my fiancé and I started the wedding planning process, we toured plenty of venues, but we knew right away that Melhorn Manor was different in the best way. We were used to being rushed through other venue tours, dismissed because our wedding wasn't big enough, and generally being made to feel more like dollar signs than excited newlyweds-to-be. But our experience at Melhorn Manor couldn't have been further from this - we met Allory for the tour, and before we took a step through the property, he took the time to introduce himself and the Melhorn family and to share the lovely story of how Melhorn Manor came about. We didn't feel rushed or pressured like we had at other venues, and Allory really took the time to understand our vision for our big day and help us imagine it around the property. We left that day glowing and feeling sure that "this is the one!" And how right we were!! We really can't say enough positive things about our wedding day. Getting ready in the amazing bridal suite and Groom's room was such a fun and special way to kick off the day. As the ceremony approached, it was so clear that the team was all working so hard to make sure all the decor was set up, every detail was thought through, and every moment went off without a hitch. What a special and humbling feeling it is to have so many people invested in making your special day as magical and memorable as you've always hoped it would be - it's impossible to express the depth of our gratitude. Our wedding day was quite a rainy one, but the Melhorn team had a plan for everything. Melhorn Manor had the most robust rain plan of any venue we toured: some venues' plans had felt more like an afterthought, while Melhorn offers an entirely separate building that can be used for the ceremony in inclement weather. It was such a huge relief to feel like we didn't have to worry about adjusting every detail on the fly, and to go into our rainy wedding day knowing that, regardless of the weather, it would be just as beautiful and special as we always imagined. We had and continue to have SO many of our guests, both on the wedding night and afterwards, tell us that this was the best wedding they have ever been to. So many glowing comments about the beautiful venue, the fun had on the dance floor, the amazing and kind staff, and all of the countless details that go into making the day memorable. We couldn't agree more that Melhorn Manor was the perfect backdrop for our special day, and we have the incredible team to thank for all the hard work, attention to detail, and love that went into making this the wedding of our dreams. We, and our families and loved ones, will truly cherish the memory of this day for a lifetime. We are so grateful to have had the absolute joy of working with Allory, Jess, and the entire Melhorn Manor team. They were enthusiastic, thoughtful, kind, and so organized at every step of the way. We can't imagine what our special day would have looked like anywhere other than Melhorn Manor - what an amazing place that will hold a special place in our hearts forever. We simply can't thank the entire staff enough!!

  • Best venue ever!

    Melhorn Manor was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. Their communication was fast, effective, and easy from the very first time we reached out. The quality of their work and attention to detail was 5-star, creating a gorgeous, seamless experience for our special day. The staff was incredibly welcoming, even with us being a young couple, and they were always there to answer any questions we had. Jess and Alory in particular were so kind and pleasant to work with - we would love the chance to collaborate with them again someday. We cannot recommend Melhorn Manor highly enough for any couples looking for an amazing wedding venue.

  • Beautiful and reasonably priced

    From the moment we reached out to Melhorn Manor, Jessica and Allory were helpful and personable. The venue itself is large, beautiful, and very accommodating - they went above and beyond to make our special day go smoothly. Jessica was approachable, easy to talk to, and asked about all the little details to ensure everything was perfect. We highly recommend this venue to any couple!

    We had our wedding at Melhorn Manor and it was absolutely beautiful! The venue offers gorgeous indoor and outdoor spaces that were very flexible for our event. The staff was so organized and made our wedding day timeline stress-free. They were also very quick to respond to any questions we had leading up to the big day and were willing to help in any way. We truly appreciated their communication and customer service. The value of the venue was well worth it - the beautiful grounds and architecture made for a memorable event for us and our guests. I would highly recommend Melhorn Manor if you're looking for a one-of-a-kind wedding venue with great staff to help your vision come to life!
