Having our wedding at Milton Ridge was the best decision we made. We choose to have the Micro Wedding which includes the maximum of 30 guest, hors d’oeuvres use of the cottage for the bride, a photographer, and the officiant . The venue itself is beautiful! We decided to have our wedding in the chapel. It is so beautiful you will need little to no decorations. The food was delicious. The photographer was amazing! The staff was very professional, very attentive and a joy to work with. I would recommend Milton Ridge to anyone who is getting married. They really made my dream wedding come true.

Drumore Mill

5.0

Drumore, PA
  • Up to 125 guests
  • Limited 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.

Drumore Mill was our DREAM wedding venue! We were looking for a rustic, nature-rich wedding venue that had an outdoor feel but still was covered in case of rain, and also had the option for us to bring in our own caterer, stay on-site with our bridal party and immediate family, and enjoy the property for the full weekend, and Drumore Mill checked all the boxes! Thuy was great to work with & super accommodating when we wanted to do our engagement photos on the property and come back and visit to take more pictures and measurements before the wedding...I couldn't stop visiting because its so beautiful. We got an overwhelming number of compliments from our guests on the venue and how beautiful and unique the space was for a wedding. Everything went incredibly well for the weekend and we were so happy with how everything turned out. We would definitely recommend Drumore Mill if you're looking for a unique wedding venue in the Lancaster area. And we will be coming back to stay on the property in the years to come!

There are not enough good things I can say about this venue and the amazing staff who work there! Dawn was incredible from the beginning of our booking until the day of the wedding, which ended up being unexpectedly delayed by 2 years due to covid. Dawn made every step easy, and kept me calm throughout the rocky process of trying to plan an international wedding during a worldwide pandemic. The venue is stunning by itself, and the caring staff put it over the top. I cannot recommend this venue enough! Book them now!

My friend just got married here and our wedding party stayed the whole weekend. First, this place is big and beautiful! The whole property is really just gorgeous and relaxing. The super sweet owners really go above and beyond to help in any way, keeping the bride and groom free to focus on other items. Their wedding package included things from rehearsal dinner, decorations, wedding dinner, drink dispensers and more. I loved this place so much, I told my friends we are coming back for a weekend stay each year for their anniversary!

Worsell Manor

5.0

Warwick, MD
  • Up to 225 guests
  • Limited services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $8,000

Worsell Manor has an incredible history and a new life thanks to the loving restoration by its current owners. The estate was granted in 1683 and was a favored stopping ground for George Washington who enjoyed the parties thrown at this elegant and intimate property still nestled in natural woodlands and ag preserved lands.

My husband and I got married at Worsell Manor in 2018 and it was a dream. I had specifically wanted to have a barn reception and had looked locally and started to lose hope until I came across pictures online on Pinterest, of course, and fell in love. I had talked about it with my Aunt and she told me she personally knew Scott and I knew I had to go visit. When we took a tour I absolutely fell in love with the whole property! My husband was so giddy about the history of the home and we knew this was it! We had gotten married at the sweetest little church down the road so my cousin, who is a Priest could marry us. It was St. Francis Xavier Shrine and it is the epitome of small, quaint, historic and a BEAUTIFUL place to get married. Coupled with the barn, the history and the breathtaking home that’s available to stay in for your wedding weekend, everything was perfect and went off without a hitch. If I could do it all again, I wouldn’t change a single thing and I relive the perfect day over and over again. Thank you so much Scott for making magic happen.

My Husband and I got married at Historic Ashland on 4/16/23. I can not recommend this venue enough! This venue was a top contender right from the very start. They had several different packages that appealed to us as we were not sure how big of a wedding we were going to have initially. Right off the bat they were quick to follow-up with our inquiry and answer any questions that we had. Once you see this venue in person you realize how incredible and versatile it is and left no room for doubt. For the staff: Leah is extremely attentive and personable to work with. You can tell that this venue is her baby and invests all the love and care that is evident through out the entire grounds and all the details. She is an incredible resource and I would also recommend reaching out early after you have booked this venue as she has great insights on the different vendors you can use to stay within your budget. It is one area I wish I utilized earlier on in the process. Amanda was our Day of Coordinator and was incredible from preplanning, rehearsal and day of the wedding. She had everything and anything on hand that you would need. I have no idea if anything didn't go according to plan because she handled things effortlessly and from our perspective it was the perfect day with no hiccups. We actually were ahead of schedule all day which made for a very relaxed bride, groom and wedding party. We never felt rushed which I think really helped us soak in the whole day to its fullest. Additionally, Leah and Amanda invited us to their private facebook group for couples getting married that which is a valuable resource on your own. They post updates regularly in there and you are able to connect and ask questions of other brides and grooms who are getting married or were married at HA. For the venue: The mansion to get ready was amazing; very spacious, filled with light, convenient for our hair and make-up vendors and was a beautiful back drop for photos. The cottage which my husband and his groomsman/family used to get ready was the perfect size. They played darts, had a couple of pre-ceremony drinks and relaxed comfortably. There are so many ceremony sites and back-up options to cater to your wedding vision. We had our April/Spring ceremony outdoors under the trees and pergola, had cocktail hour outside on the patio and lower lodge and then the reception upstairs in the lodge. Each location had their own feel and vibe that flowed effortlessly. It also was so convenient to have all 3 events in the same location. Leah, Amanda and the whole Historic Ashland Staff really make you feel like family throughout the entire process and after. Following the day, I forgot my customized hanger that Leah so kindly found and mailed back along with a small gift that my husband and I both cherish and wear. You can not go wrong with Historic Ashland and if you choose them you will be forever grateful and happy that you did. Thank you!!

We knew as soon as we stepped onto this property, that it was a hidden gem and would be the perfect wedding venue. The owners, Kristin and Dan, are the most genuine people and made our whole wedding planning experience a dream come true. They made sure every detail was on point from start to finish, that our timeline flowed perfectly, and our guests were comfortable. I heard countless times how beautiful the venue was and that it was the best wedding they had ever been to! The Fowler’s became family in the 2 years we were planning -- they were so supportive and showed empthay when we needed it the most. We’re so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with them!

Melhorn Manor

5.0

Mount Joy, PA

  • All-inclusive

  • Starts at $25,000

When you're looking for a place to host your fairy tale wedding or event, you want a venue with a certain amount of historic charm. It needs to have an authentic feel of days gone by and feature the conveniences of modern-day living. With its rich history and exquisite 18th-century buildings, you'll find an exclusive wedding venue for both ceremonies and receptions at Melhorn Manor. Melhorn Manor is a historic wedding venue in Lancaster County, PA, but was originally a 200+ acre farm that later became Florin's Village. Around the turn of the 1900s, the Melhorn family purchased the property and ran the dairy and horse farm. In 2017, Allory and Jessica Melhorn purchased and renovated the property, transforming it into a premier wedding venue. It's at this place your indoor or outdoor wedding will come to life. You won't find a better wedding venue in Lancaster with stunning areas for photo backdrops, authentic stone walls and wooden beams, and today's luxurious amenities!

Not only is Melhorn Manor the most beautiful barn venue you can find, but everything that comes along with the venue is truly amazing. Jess, Allory & the entire Melhorn Manor team were amazing to work with. They actually get to know you; they get to know your likes and dislikes. They were extremely accommodating, helpful, hardworking & caring throughout the entire wedding planning process. Not only do you get built in wedding coordinators, and a beautiful venue, you also get a lot of decorative items that you wouldn’t even think you would need on your big day. There is so much more that comes in the Melhorn Manor wedding package that made planning THAT much easier. My husband and I were hoping for an outdoor ceremony, but Mother Nature had a different plan. Not to worry though, this stunning venue had a “plan B” like no other (if you even want to call it that). My husband and I could not recommend Melhorn Manor enough. We had the most perfect, non-stressful wedding day, all thanks to Melhorn Manor and the entire team.

It's your special day! Let our farm be the perfect backdrop to your dreams so that your wedding day unfolds as the day you've always imagined.

The warm and relaxed atmosphere of the Catering Barn, Corn Crib, or Turkey Pen and rest of our farm will make you and your guests feel right at home.

The staff is so helpful, even on the day of the owner was up on ladders with twine figuring out how to hang my signs!! Can’t recommend them enough!
