We were a little late in finding a venue for our wedding but so happy we found a late fall opening with Strock Enterprises on their beautiful farm in Mechanicsburg. Kurt Strock and his team made the process super easy and walked us through all of our questions. Their option for having us provide some of our table top decorations while using some of their decorations helped the budget along. The food was amazing and Kurt's Dad (original Farm owner/operator) is superb at his barbeques - we had a full pig roast and barbeque steak). Would highly recommend.

The Stone Mill 1792 was a great place to work at as a wedding photographer. They communicate primarily via email, which was convenient and efficient for us. The quality of their work and value is perfect for vintage lovers, with an audience that are okay with walking through grass and some stairs. They were extremely organized and ready to help with anything we needed. The owners were very kind, personable and easy to work with throughout the entire process. We highly recommend The Stone Mill 1792 to any couple planning their wedding.

Our wedding day at Highland Taps & Tables was nothing short of perfection, and we couldn't have asked for a more beautiful venue. The venue itself was so charming, we opted to keep it simple with decor. There are so many places for amazing pictures, both indoors and outside on their golf course. Our wedding day flowed seamlessly, thanks to the exceptional service provided by Kirsten and the entire staff. Kirsten, in particular, stood out with her support at every stage of the planning process and on the day itself. She made sure everything ran like clockwork, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment of our special day. One standout feature that set Highland apart was the spacious and private getting-ready area for the bridal party. This was a big plus for us as some other venues we looked at charged extra for spaces like that. The delicious food was served promptly, and every order was accurate. Our guests were impressed with the quality and taste. Highland Taps & Tables is truly a hidden gem, and we feel lucky to have discovered it for our special day. If you're looking for a venue that combines natural beauty, attentive service, and great food, Highland is the ideal choice. I wish I had more unmarried friends to share it with. Our wedding day at Highland Taps & Tables will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

Hazelwood Weddings was only the second venue we visited and we knew before the end of our time there that it was where we wanted to get married! For starters the grounds are breathtaking and the structures are ready for every couple to add their own unique touches to. The property has two getting ready suites, parking for all guests, multiple ceremony spots to choose from, options for all different kinds of weather, includes all necessary furniture, and is accessible to all bodies. Hazelwood Weddings had everything we were looking for and more, but what sealed the deal for us was the interactions with the owners, Kate and Adam. Kate took us on our tour and was so prepared. She made everything about the wedding planning process feel easy. Kate was very informative but not pushy and assured us she was there to help and encouraged us to take our time in making our venue decision. Adam took care of business on the back end and was quick to respond to all our emails and also sent out friendly reminders for upcoming payments. As an added bonus, Hazelwood Weddings includes a coordination package with a planner from Blake Events. From them we were provided with a wedding planning checklist, a list of suggested vendors, and a portal to upload all contracts. At ninety days out, Emma took over putting together the timeline and coordinating with our caterer, baker, rental company, florist, officiant, dj, beauty services team, photographer, and transportation provider. She was in charge the day of and everything went smoothly and we felt no stress. Our dream of an autumunal sunset wedding filled with subtle nods to our nerdy interests was perfectly us and brought to reality thanks to Hazelwood Weddings. We could not recommend them enough!
