Reviews Alex, our incredible wedding coordinator, Seamus and I have YOU to thank for making our wedding the best day of our lives! Stroudsmoor Country Inn was our chosen venue for multiple reasons, but my main reason was because of Alex. From the first time I met Alex, she was confident, helpful, kind, transparent, dedicated, and responsive. She made the entire planning process stress free and easy. On the day of the wedding, she worked her magic! I knew the day would be overwhelming but she handled all the vendors, moving parts, and last minute changes like a true professional. I trusted her fully from the first day and I couldn’t be happier with how everything went. I didn’t have to worry about anything which was such a relief because wow it was a lot happening at once! Alex loves her job and has a passion and incredible skill for wedding planning. I have been recommending her to every newly engaged couple! Alex, you made our dreams a reality. Thank you. Stroudsmoor Country Inn was just beautiful. We chose Lawnhaven and it was the best decision we could have made. Our flowers and set up was more beautiful than I had even envisioned! Having our room, hair and make up, pictures, ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all in one place made the day go so smoothly without worrying about traveling time. We looked at about 5 venues before Stroudsmoor, and we were on the edge of deciding to not do a wedding because of the cost. The prices were so reasonable for everything included and the payment was spread out over a few months so it wasn’t overwhelming. Thank you to Alex, all the kind and helpful staff, vendors, and everyone at Stroudsmoor. The best venue I could have asked for!

Had our wedding here this past weekend and for any couples considering it, all I can say is...Do it! Terrain was absolutely the right decision and we can't imagine having done our wedding anywhere else. The staff is attentive, organized, detailed and kind. The food and beverage offerings were incredible. The team at Terrain made our vision come true and we have heard from so many guests that they had a spectacular time. The best compliment was from my father-in-law who said that the wedding seemed like it cost 2-3xs what we spent just because of how beautifully everything was put together.

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!). The wedding package we purchased included the entire BnB (6 rooms) for the bridal party, as well as the grounds to host our ceremony and/or reception (we did both!). 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!!

General Warren was incredible, helpful, communicative, accommodating, and in all ways wonderful to work with. The space was beautiful, the food was delicious, drinks were lovely, the staff were so friendly and attentive. Their event manager Patrick was amazing, he made sure everything was perfect and that all our guests were satisfied. My husband is gluten free and they went above and beyond to communicate the options and make sure that his dining experience was safe without inconveniencing or restricting the rest of our party. All in all an incredible experience, I can’t recommend them highly enough! We also spent the night in one of their rooms and it was lovely, their hospitality manager was so sweet.

We held our daughter's wedding reception and brunch at The Desmond Hotel. The ballroom, garden room, outdoor spaces and hotel were perfection! Our guests appreciated not having to travel after the reception. The food was delicious and the portions very generous! A very professional staff took care of all our needs. Many have been there for more than fifteen years. We greatly appreciated how well they took care of food allergies. They certainly know what they are doing. If The Desmond can accommodate your event, look no further. You will be in good hands.

First and foremost I have to recognize the staff who worked the event at the hotel. Katrina, who is the event coordinator, was wonderfully communicative and detail oriented. We wanted to keep things relatively simple for our wedding but she had some great ideas to spruce things up a bit and helped to keep us on track leading up to the day of. The evening prior and on the day she was helping us set things up and made sure to keep our chaotic group on schedule. Not only that she was extremely helpful in managing the group, helping to cue and time our processions and intros into the dining room after the ceremony. She also added a personal touch to the centerpieces by arranging some fresh flowers we'd brought in and I thought the result was lovely. As important as Katrina were all of the wait staff and bartenders for our wedding. Jordan, Dawn and Dinnea took care of dinner service and Doug and Debbie tended the bar. We interacted with Jordan, Doug and Debbie the most but we've spoken to friends and family who agreed that the service was excellent. I want to call out Jordan specifically because that dude was constantly checking in to make sure we had everything we needed from drinks to food. On top of all of that he was just one of the most pleasant and kind humans we could have asked for to take care of us that day. We'd also like to extend a big thank you to the whole group as we had some late arrivals who came in during dinner time. The staff immediately noticed and without any fuss went over to get their order and get them served. We had opted for a Delmonico steak and salmon as our primary entrees. Note that because of the volume of guests the Delmonicos were all cooked to somewhere around medium. I can't vouch for everyone's steak but mine came out perfectly medium. As far as I can tell from catching up with friends and family during and after the wedding everyone was pleased and really enjoyed their meals. We also really enjoyed the atmosphere that was created. We ended up choosing the Orchid(?) package, if I recall the name correctly, which is their all inclusive package and I think it was worth every penny. I really enjoyed the up lighting and hotel provided centerpieces but I can see how if you have a different vision in mind then you may want to opt for a different offering. On top of the work they did in the space the hotel has a couple of outdoor seating areas, one of which has a fire pit, that were favorites of the group to take breaks from the party rocking inside. Ultimately the most important part of our wedding day was to unite our friends and family in one place where we could party and then not have to worry about transferring from the reception venue back to the hotel. As far as we're concerned Katrina and her staff delivered on this want magnificently. From the maintenance of the hotel and event space, to the friendly and thoughtful staff, to the convenient location for our friends and family; we could not have asked for a better venue for our wedding day.
