Perfect cozy venue for our wedding! The staff at the Community House was wonderful to work with from the start. They responded quickly and shared their expertise to help make our day the best! All of our guests raved about the venue and loved our intimate ceremony in the library! Highly suggest checking out this beautiful location for any event!

We recently had our son's Bar Mitzvah at the Community House this past May. The venue was amazing! We utilized all the rooms. The building has such wonderful charm and we are already thinking about what event we can have there next. Joan was amazing and beyond knowledgeable. She helped from beginning to end and left no stone unturned. Our caterer was Foodwerx. If anyone would like to use them ask for Alyssa. I would definitely recommend The Moorestown Community House for your next event!

Choosing to have our wedding at the Community House of Moorestown was the quickest and easiest part of the planning process. From the day we toured we fell in love with its charm and our guests felt similarly. The venue was the perfect backdrop for our photos and as we’ve begun to get photos back we’ve noticed how not only the subjects of the photos shine but the venue does as well. We had numerous locations to take photos and each location within the space has its own beauty. We loved that we had the venue to ourselves all day (we got in at 8:00 am!!) and had ample room to get ready in the morning, no small feat considering I had 11 women including myself getting ready and a team of 4 artists for hair/makeup. Splitting cocktail hour between the library and the club room once more afforded more space for a more comfortable experience for our guests. The ballroom was perfect for our reception of approximately 150 guests. Joan was a delight to work with and was responsive and knowledgeable. The administration staff was equally friendly and helpful even going as far as helping us film a TikTok the morning of our wedding. Furthermore, the preferred vendors the Community House aligns themselves with are truly a league of their own. We had the most perfect wedding day and it all began with our choice to book the Community House.

We had a fabulous fall wedding here on the lawn, followed by reception indoors. Booking and communication was easy, we were able to get a tour, send payment, and ask questions very easily thanks to the dedicated staff on site. They are also well equipped with floor plans, recommended vendors, and dimensions of the spaces so you can share it with other vendors. I greatly appreciated the size of the bridal suite - perfect for a group and getting hair and makeup done on site. If you love history and a quaint NJ town to share with your guests, I highly recommend the Community House!

My husband fell in love with Community House upon seeing it, so we knew this was the place we would have our reception. Joan was very communicative and professional throughout the process. The bridal suite was perfect for hair and makeup and the getting ready process before the reception. The architecture is breathtaking. We had 121 guests and did not need the Library.

My husband and I got married in September 2024 and used the Community House of Moorestown to get ready before our ceremony and also for our reception. We mainly worked with Joan and Jennifer from the Community House and they were both so lovely. All of the staff members we interacted with were so pleasant and helpful! Joan gave us a tour when we were first looking at venues and then was available to answer any and all questions we had during the entire process (and believe me, we had a lot of questions!). They gave us excellent recommendations for vendors and were very accommodating and welcoming. The venue was lovely on the day of our wedding and the space was very clean and well maintained. The upstairs rooms were perfect for getting ready in and we had plenty of room for my wedding party (7 bridesmaids and 2 moms plus 4 hair/makeup artists!) The lighting in all of the rooms is enchanting and the outside patio space is so beautiful. I would recommend this venue to anyone! Thank you to the staff at the Community House for making our experience so seamless and pleasant! We could not have done it without your help! You guys are the best! :)

If you're looking for a unique venue that stands out among the rest, then look no further! The staff at the Moorestown Community House is phenomenal and accommodating--as a vendor, here at Enchanted Celebrations, we absolutely love working here! The grounds provide unique picture opportunities and the photos always turn out idyllic at the Moorestown Community House! If you are looking for a venue that is not your average venue that makes a statement, then this is the venue for you!

We absolutely LOVED the Community House of Moorestown for our October 2023 wedding. We had a Friday evening wedding and rented out the additional library space for our indoor ceremony--this was a non-hesitation for us (and luckily it was available). You get the entire venue (library is extra) from start to finish which was WONDERFUL. All of our guests loved the venue. There are so many beautiful spaces for photos, we took advantage of all of them--our photographer thanked us for giving him the chance to take photos here! We also worked with Chef Rob from Bacio's and we highly recommend the MCH + Bacio combination. Also, during our first look on the front terrace/steps, patrons at the Pie Lady Cafe across the street were very respectful and started cheering for us once the reveal happened--it was really sweet. We then went there for breakfast the next morning with some of our bridal party and they were so happy that we came for breakfast that they generously gave us free scones. Happy wedding planning!

Beautiful, unique, breathtaking. We loved the unique and classical vibe at The Community House of Moorestown, for our wedding! After visiting several other "typical" venues, we met with Joan and toured MCH and fell in love. Inside, outside, the front and back patios, the library, the ballroom.. it's perfection. We captured photos in just about every area of the venue, and we are so happy that we did! We loved that there was space for both bridal parties to get ready on site, without extra fees, which really helped keep the day flowing! Our guests LOVED it!

We are eternally grateful to Joan and the entire team at the Community House for helping make our dream day come to life. We were looking for an out-of-the-box, unique venue for our vintage-inspired wedding and the Community House was the one and only venue we toured. The library sold us! Guests and vendors WILL NOT stop raving about how perfect our wedding was and how much they loved our historical venue. The most gorgeous backdrop for all your special moments - we utilized each room and nook of the venue offering our guests so many unique and fun experiences. We had our service at the Episcopal church on the Main Street which allowed our guests to easily walk over to cocktail hour. We worked with Due Amici catering - referred by the Community House - and were blown away by their food, service, and execution of our day. The biggest bonus was the bridal suite and groom’s room which allowed us to spend ALL day at the venue - getting ready, first look, formal photos, etc. Most venues (especially mansions) do not offer you the venue all day - such a treat! The location is truly perfect for out-of-town guests traveling from Philly or NYC too. Thanks again for making our wedding day so special!

There are so many great things I can say about The Community House of Moorestown! My husband and I had our wedding here this past October and it was everything we could have asked for and so much more! The staff was very accommodating from the moment we booked, all the way through to the wedding! Joan was able to provide recommended vendors, which landed us with using Due Amici catering, and they too were fantastic! The Community House provides multiple beautiful backdrops and provides a touch of English elegance! This is a one of a kind venue and a manor that you have to yourself for your wedding and guests! So happy with everything! Highly recommend!

We were planning the wedding from out of state and it was easy for us to set up meetings during the limited times we were in town. The whole place is beautiful and exactly what I envisioned, and my wedding day was absolutely perfect. Thank you so much to Joan and everyone at the Community House! We couldn't be happier.

We embraced all the charms of the architecture, design, library and existing decor and ran with it. The stage was an awesome setting for our band. The guests loved the multiple spaces to explore. Joan was a God- send ! She was so helpful and wonderful through the whole process. Highly recommend it and I would love to visit again and attend their charitable events.

Moorestown Community House was at the top of my husband and my list of wedding venues to view. It's so perfect for pictures and that certain vibe we were going for. We got married at the height of covid, so that could be why not everything felt like smooth sailing. I rolled with the punches and everything came together beautifully and I wouldn't trade the day for anything. The building is very spacious and has all of the accommodations you could need. The reason why I give this venue 4 stars instead of 5 is due to the communication leading up to my wedding. Since this was covid changes were made last minute - which obviously is super stressful for a bride. I felt like the building's coordinator and my head caterer were telling me two different things. Also, a few days before my wedding I was told there would be a canopy tent that had been put up from another wedding last minute and had been pleaded not to have it taken down. Did my pictures still come out great, yes.. but it definitely changed the overall look out front of the venue which I had always envisioned. Otherwise, everything came together great. Whomever your head caterer is/wedding planner is will make sure your special day runs as smoothly as possible - since really noone from the building is required to be there the day of.
Vendor response 09/12/2023
Hi Kimberly,
We appreciate your feedback. We’re glad to hear that your overall experience ...
was great, and we apologize again for the Covid tent impacting your special moment. Weddings and events during Covid were certainly tough and unfortunately brought with it many unknown variables. We strive to provide our clients with the best customer service possible and will continue to do so.

Community House was an absolutely amazing wedding venue. The entire experience we had was absolutely perfect. We loved having the venue for basically the entirety of our day, having bridal and groom areas to get ready in, being the only wedding on site that day. Everyone was also extremely helpful through our entire process. I am still getting compliments months later on how beautiful and unique of a venue Community House was - it was a dream come true on our wedding day!

As soon as my husband and I stepped on the property of this gorgeous venue we knew it was the place we needed to get married. Everything was relatively easy leading up to and including the day of. Our wedding was everything we could have dreamed of and more. My one wish was more prompt communication as I did have to follow up a few times on emails that went unanswered. We are still getting compliments on the venue and it was the perfect choice for us.

Greatest wedding ever! We booked Moorestown back in November of 2021. We just had our wedding May 13, 2023 and it was absolutely amazing! We loved the historical vibes, all the wood and detail inside is spectacular. From getting ready in the bridal suite, ceremony, cocktail hour and reception were stress free. Plenty of parking. Only one wedding for the day is held at Moorestown Community House which was a HUGE plus for us. There are so many rooms to explore and your guests will have plenty of space to move around freely. Summit Catering did a fantastic job through our entire process leading up to the big day! Dori and Tori were amazing! :) We wish we could relive the night 100/100 <3

We thought we had already found our wedding venue elsewhere, and then we stepped into Community House for the first time! We were wowed and almost immediately booked it for our big day. The coolest and most beautiful venue we came across in our searches - it's unique enough to stand out and traditional enough to please all of your guests. We had THE most perfect wedding in THE most perfect venue and I'd do it all over again if I could. It was so great to have the entire estate for the entire day, and the accommodations were so perfect that the entire Bridal Party was able to share the gorgeous bridal suite areas upstairs for getting ready. Prep, Ceremony, Cocktail, and Reception all under one roof was THE way to go! Community House of Moorestown is the PERFECT spot for your wedding - it was for ours.

My husband and I got married here 11/18/2022 and when we first saw the venue it was exactly what we were looking for. I fell in love with the beautiful historic charm and I knew it would make me feel like a queen on my special day. We had looked into a couple other places but not many offered the entire place for one price which helped us keep ceremony and reception all at one place. Even though the library is a separate add-on you still get many other additional rooms and for the entire day. The icing on the cake was having a bridal suite and makeup room included for my makeup artist to come do everyone’s makeup. My husband I are big dancers so the large dance floor is a plus! The staff there are also very helpful! Joan is so kind and answered all the questions we had along the way. We have no regrets with choosing Moorestown Community House for our wedding venue.

If you are looking for a unique, historic and overall, BEAUTIFUL venue to have your wedding, seriously, look no further. Joan and Jennifer were such a pleasure to work with and always so helpful with any questions I had throughout the year, leading up to our wedding. They have a gorgeous getting ready suite for the bride and groom, which we were able to utilize since 8am that morning, the library (which is an addition) is absolutely stunning and a cool space to host the cocktail hour. The ball room is super spacious and has a great dance floor and a stage for a DJ or Band. Overall, our experience here was amazing and I am so happy we had our wedding here.

My husband and I hosted our Reception at the Community House of Moorestown in July 2022. It was amazing, and we loved the flexibility the site offered. We were able to work closely with our caterer to develop a menu and schedule that fit our needs. It was an extremely HOT July day, but the ballroom stayed nice and cool! We loved having the venue all day, so we could come in early and set things up. I would absolutely recommend the Community House for anyone who wants to add unique touches to your special day, and is looking to plan a wedding that isn't "cookie cutter"! This site allows you to really make it your own. Thanks for everything!

We absolutely loved our wedding at the Community House!! We first reached out during Covid via the knot and did not get a response. I believe we also called and left a message, but due to Covid, the office was closed most of the week. Luckily our caterer works with the Community House frequently and was able to get in touch with them. Joan actually opened the Community House for us to tour on a day it is usually closed and we had the whole place to ourselves. After touring the Library room, we knew it was the venue for us! The Community House has multiple rooms where you can have your ceremony, and the option for cocktail hour to be in the front room and/or flow to the front porch. It's an absolutely gorgeous venue with the best bridal suite I've seen (and I toured 8 venues). The bridal suit is huge; it consists of multiple rooms including a kitchenette and a room for hair and make up. I would absolutely recommend the Community House for your wedding!

Working with Joan to plan our event was effortless, as she and her team are kind, flexible, and extremely helpful, full of advice gathered from many previous events. Different spaces throughout the Community House served different purposes throughout our day allowing us to have lots of room to mingle, eat, and dance. The accommodations of the bridal suite made getting ready with our friends and family convenient and comfortable. The front lawn and exterior of the building created a beautiful backdrop for our ceremony while the interior of the building is so stunning we had hardly any need for decorations. Overall, our time at the Moorestown Community House was an amazing experience and the greatest pleasure to work with.

The Community House of Moorestown is the ideal setting for any size wedding or occasion. With so many classically beautiful rooms from which to choose, you can host a small, charming event or you can rent the entire place and host the event of your dreams...
As residents of Moorestown, the Main Street location felt like home, and we loved being able to decorate the ballroom to our own unique sense of style. It was very special to have local businesses involved as well - the catering, music, flowers, photography, and special performances by our local theatre company!
Everything was absolutely perfect, from our first meeting with Joan to the night of our "Dandie" affair. We could not have dreamed of having a more beautiful wedding anywhere else. The Community House of Moorestown is the only place to have the wedding of your dreams.

I found the community house of Moorestown completely by accident, as I live about an hour away in Pennsylvania! It was the first place my fiancé and I looked at, and we completely fell in love! We booked immediately and if you do end up booking here, adding in the library room is an absolute MUST! Everyone here was a pleasure to work with. They let me come and tour the space multiple times, usually on short notice, since I’m such a planner and wanted to lay out my theme! The space itself is just incredible, and could work for almost any wedding you could ever dream of! For my intimate, romantic, vintage winter wedding, it was an absolute fairytale! We used Bacios catering which was fantastic, but all of the caterers they recommend are great options! This is definitely a 10/10 wedding venue that is flying under the radar! My guests were shocked by how beautiful it was, and wondering why they’ve never seen it before! If you’re looking for the perfect intimate unique wedding Location, you found it!!

We got married on NYE at the Community House of Moorestown and it was the most perfect venue. It held our 100+ guest perfectly. The bridal suite is huge, which helps when you have 10 girls trying to get ready at once. The library was perfect for our intimate ceremony. All of our guest loved the venue from the moment they walked in through the front door. Thanks Joan for being so responsive and understanding especially during these uncertain times.

We were looking for something different that had character for our big day. We came across the Community House and just knew this was our venue! From the history of the house, the beauty and you can have the whole house from morning to the end of the night it was absolutely perfect. We had our ceremony in the library, cocktail hour in the club room, buffet spread out in the garden room and the reception in the ballroom. For the wedding party they have a whole upstairs to get ready in! Our guests just loved the house and the history. I highly recommend the Community House for anyone whose looking for something different for their venue!

We had originally been looking at farms for a barn wedding, but with our guest count, it was way too expensive and unfathomable. We saw the community house and gave it a try. IMMEDIATELY FELL IN LOVE!! The building is so beautiful and has so much character. You have the brick and original wood, surrounded by beautiful trees, and in the heart of Moorestown.

Community House was better than we ever imagined for our wedding. We were originally looking for an outdoor, woodsy feel under the stars but once we saw community house and all it had to offer there was no comparison. The price was incredible, the spacious rooms have so many option to do what we wanted, the history
was beautiful, and my caterer used their kitchen to serve hot foods made right there!!!..no cold, pre-prepared food here!
Amid a pandemic Community House was understanding and worked with us over any concerns. They responded to all of our questions and worked with our vendors, and guided us through each step and vision for our wedding. My guests had a blast. We loved community house so much that even though we live 40 minutes away, we couldn't miss the "getting ready" photo opportunities using their upstairs rooms. So we made special arrangements to all stay in hotels, get transportation to my church for ceremony (located where I live) and back, etc. Community House was willing to make special accomodations so we could do that and get the pictures we wanted...which came out incredible!!!
The indoor and outdoor areas were beautiful. We used the lawn for games during cocktail hour then moved inside for the reception...even made use of their pianos as we are both musicians! Because of community house and caterers they work with, our wedding was better than we could have ever imagined!!!

The Moorestown Community House is a gorgeous venue with lots of charm. The huge bridal suite and groom's suite are fantastic spaces for getting ready, and the best part is you get the entire building to yourselves starting at 9am, so you can spend the entire day getting ready there and truly enjoying the space. The only complaint I have is the temperature in the building. I understand it's a much older building so the systems may not be up to par. Our wedding was in the middle of August so it was already a hot day, and we had a little under 140 guests. But it was very toasty during the ceremony in the library and cocktail hour. We asked the staff to lower the AC multiple times, but no matter how much we lowered the temp, it was still very warm inside the building. Especially when wearing formalwear. Eventually, our caterer took control of the thermostat and knocked it down to the 50's , which seemed to work by the time we got into the reception.
Overall, a great experience and we're very happy with our choice to host our wedding at the Community House.

Our wedding at Moorestown Community House was a dream! Our original date was in May but with Covid we had to postpone. Joan made it nice and easy to change our date to September. When the day came it was absolutely magical! With the help with Joan and Sensational Host, we had a beautiful tent placed on the front lawn for the reception. The ceremony was still able to be held in the ballroom, which meant a lot because our guests were still able to see inside this beautiful venue. Everything flowed perfectly between the patio and the tent the entire night. Joan was kind enough to contact me the night before about renting heaters since the nights were getting cooler. I highly recommend this amazing venue!

My husband and I got married at the Community House on 02/28/20, right before everything got shut down! We were so fortunate to be able to have our wedding and even more grateful to have it at the Community House. From the minute I saw the Community House I was in love. I walked into the library and knew that was where we were going to get married. I literally started crying. Joan was so accommodating in every regard while planning our wedding and was great about recommending vendors since we were from out of town. Everything about our day at the Community House was perfect. From getting ready together in the beautiful bridal suite, to pictures all over the historic grounds, an amazing ceremony in the library, and an amazing party with cafe lights in the ballroom-- I could not have pictured a more perfect day! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful romantic place to get married and to be able to make your experience unique to you.

We were lucky to get our day in right before the pandemic and we are so thankful we did. This venue is a dream. I cried when we first visited. the history, the lawn, the LIBRARY. I cannot say enough about this venue. It was everything I needed without the over the top chandeliers or and “been there, seen that” wedding venue you’re trying to avoid. We are not a typical wedding couple and we got everything and more that we wanted out of this venue!!!

My son & daughter-in-law had the most beautiful wedding reception at the Community House Moorestown Ballroom ! It was a late October wedding so the Autumn foliage was a spectacular backdrop to their outdoor photos. Inside, the venue offered so much. There was a room for the cocktail hour with a piano, which my brother played. The caterer was marvelous. Then, the ballroom was elegant for dining & dancing. Another room hosted all the desserts & wedding cake. Joan's services, recommendations & expertise were exceptional. There's truly no better venue for any gathering !

The Community House was amazing all throughout planning and was beautiful for our reception on 12/28/19!!! We also had our rehearsal dinner in the library which was the perfect taste of the space prior to the wedding the next day (although it is actually a separate space). I am so happy that we were able to have such a beautiful day at our dream location, both being from Moorestown, and am still so amazed by how amazing it all was! I would totally recommend 10/10!!!

We had our wedding this year at the Community House at Moorestown and we were so absolutely thrilled with the venue. We always imagined having a longer-than-average wedding and the Community House certainly helped us attain that vision. We were able to start our day in the bridal suite, which is incredibly spacious. The ceremony was held in the library , which was absolutely beautiful, and the reception was held in their ballroom. The whole feel of the venue looks like an old manor, but the space of a regular event center. It was also nice to know that we didn't have to worry about other wedding parties in the same venue at the same time.
Joan and team were so incredibly helpful and not restrictive. We are so happy that we chose the community house to have our dream wedding.

My husband and I are SO happy we chose the Moorestown Community House for our wedding! When I started the wedding planning process, I thought I wanted the typical rustic barn venue. However, when my husband and I toured the community house, I fell completely in love with the classic, romantic, and historic aspects of this beautiful venue. You have the entire venue to yourself for the whole day, which makes you feel like you rented out a historic home to get ready! The bridal suite is amazing and spending the morning there with all my girls was so stress free and fun. My husband and I chose to get married in March, so we had our ceremony in the restored library. It was the exact intimate vibe we were going for, and my photographer was able to get some amazing pictures from the upper level of library. Sensational Host did an amazing job catering the event- Jeff and Kara, as well as all of their staff, are wonderful to work with! Cocktail hour spanned the whole floor, and our guests loved being able to move around the building. I was initially worried about the ballroom and dance floor being too small for 175 guests, but it was perfect. We were able to do a sparkler exit in the front of the building, which was the best way to end the night! Joan is super flexible, and you can truly make this venue into anything you envision with your team of vendors. The building is timeless and you will not regret choosing MCH as your wedding venue!!

We had a wonderful experience hosting our daughter’s wedding at the Moorestown Community House in September. The groom’s out-of-town family was thrilled with the look of the mansion on the website and convenience to hotels in nearby Mt Laurel. We were able to use the front lawn for the ceremony, and move inside for the cocktail hour and reception seamlessly. The grounds looked beautiful and had just been professionally decorated with seasonal planters and flowers on the front terrace and in the back of the building. Our cocktail hour was hosted inside as well as on the front terrace. The ball room was beautiful in its traditional and simple elegance. The space was perfect for our wedding of 145 guests and we appreciated our caterer’s advice to keep the bar in the ballroom. There was still plenty of room for dining and dancing comfortably and the majority remained in the ballroom while others could visit in the quieter rooms if they wanted to. Dessert was served in the back garden room. We especially loved having the use of the entire mansion- it felt like home! The caterer and MCH staff attendant, Tyler, were wonderful with set up and breakdown. The photos were amazing with so many architectural elements inside and outside. I can’t wait to host another event there!

It offers everything! So many different spaces to work with. I got ready with my girls in the bridal suite upstairs, had a first look in the library with my husband, got married on the front lawn, enjoyed cocktails on the terrace, and danced the night away in the ballroom. So much flexibility in how you can decorate and make it your own - we went with a romantic rustic vibe, but I could also see the potential for industrial decor. I highly recommend this space!
