This venue is GORGEOUS and the people that work there are the best. We picked the venue because of the beautiful ceremony location, the mansion, and the large white reception tent. Each time we visited for our planning sessions, the grounds have been immaculate and during our wedding, the gardens were perfect. The main compliment we received from our guests was how stunning the venue was.
We worked with Marnie as our planner and we could not recommend her enough. She has such a great personality and was so fun to work with. We were the first ones of our friends and family to get married, so we were a little clueless about planning a wedding and Marnie was so helpful. She answered all of my random questions, gave us advice on what to do and what not to do, and always responded to all of my emails, even if I sent her multiple in a row. During our wedding, she kept everyone to the timelines, dealt with all our family members, made sure my husband & I were able to eat without interruptions, but most importantly, she brought our vision to life. Thank you Marnie and Drumore!
The Drumore Estate not only is the wedding venue of your dreams, but they have the most amazing people as well. We were so lucky to have had Shayna Welch, not only was she professional, responsive, efficient, and flexible but she was incredibly intentional from start to finish and made sure all our details fell into place smoothly. She communicated beautifully with all the vendors, and everyone involved with the wedding, which made the whole day seamless. We had such an amazing wedding at The Drumore Estate, and it truly takes your breath away. We cannot thank Shayna and the rest of the staff enough for the amazing job that they did!
If I could give more than 5 stars I would. When we were looking for venues for our June 2024 wedding, Drumore was the first venue we saw and we knew immediately that it was the one. So much so that my sister chose it for her October 2024 wedding as well! (Which happened this past weekend and was another 10/10 experience!) I know, my poor parents having two daughters get married within four months is crazy but the Drumore made the whole experience seamless. The team at Drumore went above and beyond our expectations for our June 2024 wedding. The space itself is so beautiful and unique and the team really works hard to make all your dreams come true! From allowing us to incorporate my family’s Greek cultural cuisine for cocktail hour to making sure the green beans served with the main course had almond slivers per my dad’s request, the Drumore Estate team executed every detail of our day perfectly. Marnie was always in constant communication with us about everything and made the planning process so much fun! I didn't realize how much I would laugh to the point of tears at wedding planning sessions. The food, ambience and service at Drumore is unbeatable. We and our guests had such an amazing time we didn't want the day to end! Marnie and her team felt like part of the family from our first meeting and really took the time to get to know us and our dreams for our special day. When we had a mishap and accidently broke the special champagne flutes my husband and I had for our table for our reception during transport to the Drumore on our wedding day (at no fault of the Drumore team!) Marnie went out immediately and bought us special replacement flutes for us to have at our table. I never expected something so kind and thoughtful, especially when it happened during the craziness of wedding day and when it was an accident on our end, but Marnie and her team knew the meaning of the flutes to us and went above and beyond to make sure that special touch was added. And then at my sister's wedding in October 2024 at Drumore, Marnie surprised me, my husband, my sister and her husband with special matching champagne flutes for all four of us Drumore wedding siblings! Although I am so sad that our wedding and my sister’s wedding is over, I know we will always be close with our Drumore family and that we picked the BEST venue in Lancaster! If you are looking for a beautiful, top-notch wedding venue look no further than Drumore Estate!
Love,
Alissa & Hunter Bryan
Any questions?
Drumore gave us the most amazing wedding experience! Shayna was the best and made everything go smoothly both before and day of. It was a beautiful venue with delicious food and Drumore connected us with everybody we would need for the day to go perfectly.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Marnie and the entire team at Drumore Estate made our wedding day absolutely incredible! From start to finish, they were a dream to work with, and we truly felt like we were in the best hands. The day started in the stunning getting ready spaces, and from there, everything flowed perfectly. Our guests couldn't stop raving about how beautiful the venue was, how smoothly everything went, and how fantastic the food was. Many even said it was the best wedding they had ever been to!
Marnie was a true gem throughout the planning process. She had so many incredible recommendations and worked seamlessly with all of our vendors. She handled the countless emails from my mom and me with such grace, always responding sweetly and staying incredibly communicative. We highly recommend the Drumore Estate for anyone looking to make their wedding dreams come true—it was everything we hoped for and more!
We had such an amazing experience at Drumore Estate for our wedding. The venue is absolutely stunning, and so many of our guests have told us how beautiful they thought it was. A friend described it as one of the top three wedding venues they've ever been to. Our photos turned out amazing because the grounds are so perfectly kept and manicured.
Despite the heat (no one can control that), everything looked perfect and everyone had a great time. Marnie and her team did a fabulous job at setting everything up and keeping things organized and on track. They made sure we hit all of our deadlines and were very helpful during the planning process. We highly recommend!
*****5 STARS & MOOORE*****!
We had our DREAM WEDDING at the Drumore Estate! Simply gorgeous weather and the best day and evening with family and friends.
Drumore was actually an added venue we put on our list when we were looking at our potentials. It was important to us to find an inclusive venue, so when we saw the “Equally Wed” spotlight article on Drumore, full of beautiful images, we had to add it to our touring list, despite it being outside of our original search radius. We had 7 tours scheduled across PA and Drumore was our #2 stop.
I will say that I wish our tour at Drumore could have been at least 3 hours as oppose to the maybe 80 minutes we had, but that was on us for having it in between two other tours, because we wanted to stay there ALL DAY! We met with Gabi, and she would later tell us she would be our coordinator on the day, so nice to know and have that reassurance. Drumore catered to pretty much everything, venue, chairs, rain plan, catering, pet-friendly, gorgeous overall aesthetic and such a friendly staff.
My wife Nissa and I began our tour to the outdoor garden ceremony location they have, and little did we know we would be walking down the 200/250 foot bridal walkway path to the certified butterfly garden, fountain and gnome guarded iron gate entrance. We really started to see our wedding here, the cocktail hour was cute and spacious with a Juliet balcony above and the outdoor reception tent offered the perfect place for our reception. We were nervous about the weather during that time of year, late April. They have a stunning rain plan location; at the time it was called The Orangery, it's since been changed to The Ballroom. We were so impressed with every square foot of Drumore, and it was only our 2nd stop. Our decision for our perfect venue was made so very clear on that 1 day of tours, what a relief!
Gabi made us feel so relaxed and excited with our planning sessions throughout the course of our year long planning timeline. Thank you Gabi! =)
We had our engagement photo session there as well. On a rainy afternoon. So romantic and beautiful even then! Engagement shoot pictures are included as well.
The weekend of our wedding, it just all came together so beautifully. Our photography and videography team put in all the stops of capturing how beautiful this location is and how right we were selecting it and entrusting our magical weekend to the Drumore staff.
Everything was so romantic and classy, with a touch of whimsical and elegance. Just everything we wanted. I cannot stress to you enough how reassured and happy you will feel if you have the Drumore Estate as your venue. Their video on the website shows some great overall coverage. However, it's your wedding weekend: from inside the beautifully smelling estate, an impressive groom lounge and adorable bridal suite, to the vast beautiful lawns and outdoor areas to the carriage house. You and your loved ones will fall in love with the Drumore Estate experience.
Thank you Drumore!!!!!!

We had our wedding at Drumore Estate in March 2024. Planning a wedding can be a stressful process, but working with the team at Drumore took all of our worries away. From the moment we saw it, we knew this venue was the perfect place for us to get married. It’s so beautiful there regardless of the season or weather. Our budget was limited, but Marnie and her crew worked with us to put on our dream wedding. They went the extra mile for us, even down to the little things we didn’t think about, like providing decorations to embellish our welcome sign and seating chart.
We can’t overstate how great it was to work with Marnie. She handles so many weddings in a season yet still remembered so many small details about us and our preferences. She was perpetually on top of things—even when I was scatterbrained and disorganized, she kept my head on straight, helped me make decisions, and made recommendations that we ended up loving on our big day. On the day of the wedding, we knew it was going to rain, but we weren’t sure what time. Marnie was ready with a plan for rain, sleet, snow, or hail! During rehearsal, she guided us through any possible scenario both outside and inside. On the morning of, she checked in multiple times and seamlessly switched us from an outdoor to indoor ceremony when we realized it would be too cold and wet to have it outside—no issues or fuss. The Ballroom (formerly the Orangery) was a gorgeous place to get married, so we didn’t care one bit. And our reception in the Carriage House was magical; the room was gorgeous and comfortably accommodated our guest list of 40 with the perfect amount of space.
It was also nice having a space at the venue to get ready in the morning. The bridal suite and groom suite (called the “Groom Room” by the groom’s party) were spacious, and both had personality to them—great for pictures!
The food was fantastic. We had vegetarians, picky eaters, people with allergies, and foodies among our guests, and every person had compliments to give about their meal—even our grandmothers who eat like birds finished their plates and got up for seconds! Having the food included with the venue took a lot of logistical planning out of the equation. When we had some customizations that we wanted to make to our menu, like adding appetizers, there was no issue.
We had so many guests tell us that it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to. Our wedding was perfect, and Marnie, her team, and the beautiful Estate were instrumental in making the day of our dreams. We are so grateful to Drumore and would choose them again in a heartbeat.
We just had our wedding there and it was absolutely perfect. The venue is gorgeous the food is awesome and everything went according to plan. The staff there are really what makes it special they are so helpful with the planning process and coordinating the day of. The planners are awesome prior to the wedding. We had Gabi and she was great. She was even better day of as our coordinator she helped so much and made the day run smoothly. I fully recommend this place. It is a little pricier but it’s worth it.
What A VENUE! So happy we found Drumore and there are not enough nice things to be said about Marnie, wedding coordinator! She made the wedding planning process so easy for us and am honestly going to miss working with her. She and Drumore also worked with my parents for a Firework surprise which I think our guests will be taking about forever. We were set for an outdoor day but the weather decided to throw rain our way but Drumore was ready to go for Plan B and moved everything around smoothly. Bar and wait staff were also amazing along with the appetizers and meals. Wish we could relive the whole day/experience.
In June of 2022, my husband and I had the pleasure of getting married at Drumore Estate, and I must say, the staff, especially Marnie, made the entire experience truly exceptional. Marnie's dedication and professionalism added a special touch to our celebration, making it a day to remember. The venue itself exuded charm and elegance, providing a picturesque backdrop for a perfect wedding. The stunning ambiance of Drumore Estate left such an impression that our guests assumed we had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on the venue. The breathtaking setting and meticulous attention to detail at Drumore Estate created an atmosphere of luxury and elegance, making our wedding day feel truly opulent. It's a testament to the venue's ability to provide a high-end experience that wows guests without breaking the bank. Despite a hiccup with the seating chart that I, as the bride, only discovered through wedding photos three months later, Marnie proved to be an absolute lifesaver. Her exceptional handling of the issue showcased her dedication and problem-solving skills. Thanks to Marnie's efforts, what could have been a major disappointment turned into a testament to the venue's commitment to customer satisfaction. Kudos to Drumore Estate and a special thanks to Marnie for saving the day! Drumore Estate exceeded expectations and made our celebration unforgettable.
Drumore was the first venue we toured and we instantly fell in love. Overall experience at Drumore was Beyond excellent. The staff were amazing. I changed my wedding date last minute and Drumore was able to pull it off. They were so detail oriented. Every last request I asked for was meant and this meant the world to my husband and I.
Drumore Estate was the first venue we toured, and we fell in love with it instantly! The mansion and surrounding scenery is so beautiful, and it has that vintage look which is what we were going for. Gabi was so kind and did a great job helping us bring our dream wedding to life! So so glad we went with Drumore!
Drumore Estate is the premier wedding location in the Lancaster area. If you want an stress-free wedding day, filled with love and laughter, Drumore is the place to go!
My husband and I got married on October 13, 2023, and we wanted to have a unique wedding celebration that we have called “RISTFEST”. We had a private ceremony in the garden, with just our immediate family, and invited all of our guests to a cocktail hour, dinner, and party to celebrate with us in the evening. Our wedding was laced with elements to make it feel like a concert, including: tickets as invitations, bouncers at the door, a first mosh, and, of course, merch with our logo.
The estate is surrounded by gorgeous views, and the most stunning sunsets. The grounds are impeccably maintained, and they offer the perfect blend of indoor and outdoor elements to suit whatever your wedding day vision is.
Drumore offers in-house catering, which means it is one HUGE thing you can check off your list. Your guests will be blown away by the exquisite food, and Drumore offers an array of choices to accommodate different diets. I myself am vegetarian, and Drumore went out of their way to ensure that I was well-fed and pampered on my big day.
Something that was very important to us, was having our dog there, because she was at our engagement, and she wanted to see her Pawrents get married. Drumore was very accommodating and helped us to include our precious fur child on our big day!
The biggest selling point for myself and (now) husband was Marnie and her team. Marnie goes above and beyond for her couples and ensures from the first tour, all the way to the big day that you are confident and excited about your wedding. Marnie played a crucial role in planning “RISTFEST”, and she was even the inspiration for several elements. Her creativity and commitment to helping us execute our wedding the way we wanted made all of the difference in the planning process. When we were stumped with a creative idea, like how to make a card box rock n’ roll, Marnie came through with the idea for a guitar case. Marnie is also not afraid to celebrate with you on the dance floor!
My husband and I have been married for exactly a month, and we still get compliments from our guests about how beautiful, special, and unique our wedding was. If we were doing it all over again (and we might, for the reunion tour) we would pick Drumore Estate!
Picking your wedding venue is one of the harder choices to make. If your looking for the perfect venue and the dream team.. LOOK NO FURTHER! Drumore was everything we could have wanted. It is so beautiful back at the mansion. Everyone was amazing and so down to earth from the initial consult to wedding day. So responsive and caring. Marnie and Kevin absolutely rock!! I can not begin to thank them enough for everything they did. So many behind the scenes details that I’m sure we are unaware of. They were absolutely amazing the entire planning process. So accommodating, patient, gave us so many suggestions and completely nailed everything about our perfect wedding day. Took so much ease and stress off knowing we were in the best of hands. Amazing teamwork between Drumore and our vendors. We seriously cannot recommend Drumore Estate enough. Marnie and Kevin (and the rest of the Drumore staff) are an added bonus to this beautiful establishment. Thank you all for everything you did and being such a major key role in our most perfect day. ♥️
Drumore Estate was the first venue my now husband and I looked at. We fell in love with it immediately but thought it was more so our excitement taking over. After looking at three other potential wedding venues, our decision was easily confirmed- there was no doubt we wanted Drumore. From the start Drumore proved to genuinely care about us as a couple, our wants and needs, and were more than willing to work with us; we never were or felt like “just another couple” coming through Drumore’s doors. It is needless to say how absolutely breathtakingly beautiful Drumore’s property is. Our guests were completely infatuated with its beauty, just as much as we and our family were. Also, my husband and I as well as our guests couldn’t say enough great things about the food.
We had the privilege of working with Kevin and Marnie for our wedding. Kevin is an amazing “behind the scenes” magician and Marnie is the ultimate wedding coordinator; I can’t imagine what our day would’ve been like without them and we could not be more grateful for them. Marnie’s has a radiating, positive energy that is especially appreciated on wedding day. Marnie is so organized and on top of EVERYTHING from start to finish and from top to bottom, she does not miss a beat. As someone who is very “type A” with a need to be in control, I did not hesitate to trust Marnie at any point; she 100% had me and made my vision of our wedding day come to life beautifully and perfectly. My new husband and I can’t recommend this amazing venue enough.
Brides, look no further. Drumore was everything we could have asked for and MORE. Marnie and the staff were super professional, great to work with, very responsive with all our questions and communications. They took our vision and dreams and made it so beautiful. Between the ceremony gardens, romance patio, gorgeous tent, you cannot get enough of the magnificent grounds and scenery that Drumore has to offer. Guests will be talking about our wedding for years to come. All the stars and love we can give, love The Powell’s!
Gabi is AMAZING! This venue in itself is gorgeous and timeless - but having a great coordinator made it even better! Gabi was so easy to work with and was able to accommodate my crazy requests. She was timely in answering emails which was so helpful. The food, set-up, bar and everything else was amazing! Drumore estate exceeded our expectations for our wedding day and we couldn’t be more happy that we chose them to host our special day.
I had always dreamed of having the perfect fairytale wedding when I was a little girl, at a gigantic castle with hundreds of gardens and a beautiful aisle to walk down. Drumore Estate certainly isn’t a royal castle, but I would be lying if I said my wedding here wasn't something out of a fairytale or straight out of my dreams. I could talk about my wedding for days, from getting married, to my amazing photographer and DJ, to celebrating with my favorite people, however, the one thing I could ramble on the most about is Drumore Estate and its staff. My husband and I truly could not have gotten luckier with this beautiful venue and its beautiful people.
First of all, the grounds and mansion themselves made me feel like I was a princess all day. The garden (where my husband and I had our ceremony) is absolutely stunning, the mansion is absolutely stunning, the carriage house (where our reception was held) is absolutely stunning, the romance patio is absolutely stunning, the fields are absolutely stunning, the walk from the back of the mansion to the carriage house is absolutely stunning, every single square inch of this venue is just absolutely stunning. I truly don’t think there is another Lancaster wedding venue that compares to this one.
Second of all, we had the quesadillas and fresh fruit for our appetizers during the cocktail hour and the pasta bar for our dinner and they were all delicious. You just can’t go wrong with sweet, juicy fruit during the summer, especially at an elegant wedding at Drumore Estate.
Third of all, and the biggest thing that I can touch on, is Drumore’s staff. These are people who will absolutely go to the ends of the Earth for you and to make your wedding the best one ever. Absolutely everyone who helped us on our day, from the cooks in the kitchen, to the bartenders, to the planners and coordinators, to the assistants, went above and beyond for us and I have truly never felt more serviced or taken care of. I would specifically like to touch on the two employees who made our day even more amazing and stress free than possible, which was Kevin and Marnie. Kevin is Drumore’s event manager, who was such a breath of fresh air and lightened up our day perfectly, especially before I began my walk down the aisle. He kept me laughing as I waited for my wedding party to finish walking down, and with my nerves as haywire as they were, that truly made such a difference and meant so much. Now, Drumore’s event facilitator and coordinator, Marnie was seriously our wedding fairy godmother. It’s literally like she came down from the heavens and I could talk about her for hours. She is the life of the party! She was always full of the best wedding advice, was always reliable whenever my husband or I had questions during the months leading up to our day, and was absolutely full of fun and laughter and was a natural de-stressor on the day of. Marnie went above and beyond to make sure nothing went wrong, and if it did, she would deal with it herself and not put it on my husband and I’s shoulders. I felt like I had a new best friend throughout the day. It meant so much.
I wish my wedding day could have lasted forever, and one of the biggest reasons why is so that I could have the experience I did with Drumore and its staff for eternity. Truly the most beautiful, magical, and extraordinary venue and customer service a bride could ever ask for!
Thank you Drumore Estates for the most beautiful wedding we could have asked for, Marnie took care of all the details that some brides stress about. The smell of the gardens when I stepped outside is something I will never forget.
We couldn't have been happier with our experience at Drumore. Gabi took great care of us. There wasn't a moment of stress on our big day (even though it looked as if it were going to rain) and I feel like that says something huge about the team at Drumore. It was also the most beautiful estate. It was so special to treat our friends to something so lovely on our wedding day.
It can be overwhelming looking for a wedding venue, but Drumore Estate takes so much stress out of the process. They make something so challenging seem incredibly easy. Not only did our wedding look magical because of how beautiful the property is, but it FELT magical because of the dream team at Drumore. It truly was a fairytale, and I know all the behind the scenes work that went in to making it that way was due to Marnie and her team. Our wedding day was the day of our dreams largely because of Marnie and the staff at Drumore, and we will be forever grateful for the roles they played on our special day!
My husband and I got married at Drumore Estate on May 26, 2023 and it could not have been a more perfect day! It was hard for me to envision how everything was going to all come together but the team at Drumore including our AMAZING coordinator Kyesse transformed it all into something out of a fairytale and I was blown away. Kyesse was incredible from day one and was so responsive (via email and text) and was super thorough during our rehearsal in explaining how the ceremony would go and important tips for everyone to keep in mind. She also was understanding when it came to helping me stay within budget and she even helped setup the morning of. Shes an angel! We are so lucky to call her a friend after everything she did to make our day so perfect. Our guests had nothing but great things to say throughout the night about the food, atmosphere, and all the stunning beauty of the venue. If you are looking for a garden style venue with excellent staff, this is your place! I wish I could replay the day all over again.
Immediately once we stepped foot on Drumore Estate we fell in love with the beautiful grounds but it really was the people that sold us on this venue for our wedding. Marnie and Kevin put their blood, sweat and tears into making sure that every couple has the best possible day. From early planning to the week before, Marnie kept everything extremely organized leaving us to not have to worry at all about our venue. Their vendor recommendation list made wedding planning a breeze. Marnie had personal stories to tell about every single vendor on that list and why she loved them, making us confident in our decisions to go with them. When booking our vendors all of them spoke so highly about Drumore Estate and I can see why.
Our wedding day went as perfect as anyone could ask for. Marnie and Kevin handled everything from decorating, to managing guests, to day of timelines and keeping us all on schedule. I can honestly say without them our wedding wouldn't have been as great as it was.
Drumore Estate is such a beautiful venue and the whole team is great. They were so accommodating for my husband and I when we needed to change our wedding date. And even though it poured down rain on the day, they made our backup plan work and flow so smoothly, you would have thought that’s how we planned it originally. The food is awesome, the planning sessions with Kyesse and emails with her and Marnie went smoothly and timely. It really took so much of the stress away from me as the bride, I really, truly recommend and wouldn’t have chosen another venue.
We can’t recommend Drumore enough!! Our day was absolutely perfect because of Marnie and Kevin! They were a true dream to work with, they went above and beyond to give us the perfect day and it was a blessing to have them there to celebrate with us! The grounds are so well kept and landscaped beautifully, and the food is phenomenal! Drumore was a special part of our special day and we are so very grateful to have shared our day with Drumore Estate!
Drumore Estate couldn’t have delivered more incredibly for my daughter’s wedding day. From the elegance of the Orangery to the beautifully decorated Carriage House, it was a day that no one will ever be able to forget. Marnie, the wedding coordinator, couldn’t have been more organized, helpful and energetic, while Kevin made sure that every little detail was just perfect. Everything was above and beyond our highest expectations and we would absolutely recommend Drumore Estate’s venue to anyone in search of an unforgettable experience.
I cannot say enough about Drumore Estate and their staff! We got married on November 19 and it was the absolute perfect day. Marnie is an absolute angel who helped us pick the perfect menu, kept us organized, and never let one detail slip. The staff were fantastic and even joined us on the dance floor. They even helped when my bustle kept coming undone on the dance floor. If you are looking for the perfect venue that has picturesque views and staff that go above and beyond, I would highly recommend Drumore Estate. It was an unforgettable day that could not be topped.
My husband and I got married here this past Saturday and it was absolutely perfect. The estate is so gorgeous. There’s plenty of options/packages. They also include a cake and flowers so that helps a lot! The staff is so nice and helpful. The wedding planner Kyesse was so sweet and kind. She made sure everything was the way we wanted. Definitely couldn’t of asked for anybody better. We can’t wait to come back in 2 years to have a bigger celebration! Absolutely love this place!
Overall, Drumore Estate was an absolutely wonderful wedding venue. We knew as soon as we saw and toured the property that we wanted our wedding and reception there! The whole place is beautiful and had everything we were looking for in a venue. Marnie, one of the wedding coordinators, was extremely friendly, enthusiastic, and helpful in helping us plan for the upcoming day. Our wedding day at Drumore was beautiful and so much fun. The only small critique we had was that we had a new wedding coordinator on the day of, and things at times felt a bit disorganized; we were not given much guidance at the day-of rehearsal, we did not know where they were when we first arrived as well as a few other times throughout the day, and the cocktail hour ran a bit late. However, that did not detract much from an overall very positive experience at Drumore. We would recommend this place for sure!
Beautiful venue! So glad I didn't have to worry about the inclement weather myself, in addition to all I had to do day of! They coordinated & took care of everything, & made it as stress free as possible! The food was delicious, the setting was beautiful!
Drumore Estate was the perfect venue for our wedding day! Once we had our first tour of the property, we instantly fell in love with the venue and the scenery surrounding it. We appreciated Marnie's ability to help us picture the full scope of our wedding day. She was excited for us, gave us suggestions during the planning process, and truly listened to our vision. We felt like more than just a client. The only shortcoming of the planning process and day of event was the last minute change of our coordinator who lacked Marnie's enthusiasm and professionalism. While our concerns negatively affected the later part of the planning stage, we are happy to say that our wedding day was incredible, and we would highly recommend Drumore Estate as a venue!
Drumore was perfect for our wedding! Our wedding day went so smoothly because of the team and Marnie! There's so much included with their packages that a lot of stress you'd normally experience in wedding planning is lifted away. We did a semi-DIY wedding and they set up, took down, and packed up everything for us. Talk about full service! Our guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful the venue was, too. I can't recommend them enough!
Picking Drumore Estate for our venue was the best decision! The venue itself is beautiful, and was the cheapest around. You have to use their cater but it’s worth it. All of our guest including us loved the food. When booking with Drumore, a wedding coordinator is included as well as all the linens and tableware. They have multiple options to have your ceremony and reception as well as a plan B incase of bad weather. Having Marnie (our coordinator) was great. She made planning and putting the wedding together a breeze! Even the day of the wedding when I tried to offer my help I was turned away to enjoy my day. Drumore Estate has a great reputation with a lot of outside vendors to make your wedding special. They provide a vendors list to show you who is familiar with the venue and having those vendors who have been to Drumore previously makes a huge difference in making your wedding flow smoothly. All the vendors that we picked off the list were precessional, down to earth and super nice. All I had to do was pick my vendors and bring a couple of my own decorations and they do everything else! Our wedding day was perfect and the best day of our lives!
We had our wedding at Drumore On 9-9-22. To say Marnie and the entire Drumore team was phenomenal is an understatement. They made everything about our day perfect and as stress-free as possible. Our out of town guests raved about how beautiful this venue is. Several guests also commented about how great the bartenders were. Marnie made the entire planning process go smoothly and was awesome to work with. The following day when we returned to gather all of our decorations and alcohol, the Drumore team had it packed up, neatly organized and even helped us to load it into our cars. Thank you for making our day so special. Highly recommend!
We held our elopement ceremony at Drumore Estate this weekend. It was perfect and beautiful! Even though we had a small event, Christina made us feel extra special from our first tour to the moment we left for home after our wedding and reception. The cake they provided was outstanding, so moist and yummy. As opposed to most cardboard wedding cakes you struggle to take a few bites of to be polite, we all enjoyed every crumb of it! The flowers they arranged were exactly what I wanted. Every detail was exactly what I would have done if I'd done it myself! Absolutely the perfect day and the staff is even sweeter than the cake. You will be thrilled by your wedding at Drumore Estate!
The Drumore Estate was everything I could have ever asked for, it is beautiful rain or shine! Marnie & Kevin were absolute fantastic and really made the day as special as it could be. From day one they were with you, helping organize and giving suggestions. Our wedding day it rained and they still made it as magical as possible, with accommodations and decorations. They even enjoyed the party with us. Thank you Drumore Estate for your beautiful scenery, food and hospitality. They allowed us to have alpaca and fireworks, DJ party items and so much more. If you want a magical, princess, rememberable wedding go to the Drumore and work with Marnie & Kevin for the most memorable night of your life.
Drumore estate was one of our first venue visits. Once we got our tour on site and saw the beautiful garden and estate grounds, we fell in love instantly. We were so sold that we looked to book them immediately and canceled our other venue tours. During our planning, the team at Drumore (shoutout to Marnie and Kyesse!) were fantastic at listening to our requests, anticipating our needs, and bringing our wedding vision to life. On our big day, Kyesse and her team ensured that we had a perfect day- and I really mean perfect! The decor was set to perfection, the food was absolutely amazing, and even Mother Nature chimed in for the perfect weather. Everything went so smoothly and though we had to adapt to some unplanned changes, (to no fault of the Drumore staff) everything resulted in an amazing wedding day that my family and friends are already commenting about (and it hasn’t even been a week from our date yet!). We would highly recommend Drumore to anyone looking to have a picturesque event in a romantic setting, with extremely competent and friendly staff. 100/5 stars!
The most beautiful venue and the most amazing wedding team! I cannot speak more highly of the wedding experience at the Drumore. They are thoughtful, flexible and very experienced.
We would absolutely get married again at Drumore! The staff are extremely helpful, and the grounds are beautiful. Marnie is an excellent coordinator, and we loved working with her. Her assistant Kyesse is professional, kind, and helped us solve an issue with one of our vendors. Many of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue was and how much fun they had.
We had our dream wedding here at Drumore Estate in July 2022. Once we saw Drumore Estate in person we knew it was a no brainer. Our wedding had to be here! The mansion and the grounds are GORGEOUS. I have never seen another venue as beautiful as this. Not only is the venue itself amazing, the staff is just as, if not more, AMAZING. Marnie, our wedding coordinator, went above and beyond to make sure our special day was a fairy tale. She was so easy to work with, so quick to respond to any questions we had, and just such a joy to work with! If you are considering having your wedding here, DO IT! You will not be disappointed!!!
We had our wedding on 6/17/2022 and Drumore Estate and their team were absolutely amazing. When we were looking at venues back in 2020 it felt like people were being more like a sales person than trying to give us 100% straight answers. But when we had our tour with Marnie, that changed. She was straight forward, honest, sweet and really loved planning weddings.
Once we locked in the planning with them also went very well, they were organized, reach out to our vendors once we had them and were responsive when I emailed with questions. The day of the wedding (BEST DAY EVER) they set everything up perfectly and checked up on us to make sure we were all good. We got so many compliments on the food, decor and the stunning location. And anyone that meet Marnie that night said “Wow you can tell this is more than a job for her”.
I’m so happy we toured here and ultimately had our wedding here. It was absolutely our dream wedding and a big part of that dream becoming a reality was the love and support of this team.
We got married at Drumore Estate on 6/11/22 and we cannot express how grateful we are to have been able to host our wedding at Drumore Estate. We were immediately impressed by the care taken not only to their grounds, but also to the mansion. Marnie, the on-site coordinator, was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process leading up to, and on, our special day. Marnie was amazing to work with as she was quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had and showed so much excitement and happiness for us! She is beyond what we could have asked for in a coordinator. The staff at Drumore is extremely organized which made the entire day run smoothly. Through setting up, to transitioning our guests and decorations from the ceremony, to cocktail hour, and ultimately to our reception - we didn’t not have to lift a finger. The bartenders were so quick that our guests never even had to wait in line for a drink! The food was impeccable - honestly, better than most restaurants! Our only complaint with Drumore estate would be not clearly communicating the minimum number of guests required until the day our final count was due (1 month prior to our wedding). Unfortunately, the minimum was not written in our contract but was listed on their website. We ultimately had to pay for 10 people that we did not have attending the wedding. We would have signed the contract regardless, but would have appreciated this information being written into our contract from the beginning in order to budget accordingly. That being said, it was still worth every penny and we highly recommend Drumore Estate for your wedding!
Drumore is perfect! It is such a beautiful place filled with an amazing staff. The staff is so kind, attentive, and helpful. They helped with so much and made our wedding day as effortless for us as possible. The property is amazing. It is full of beauty, life, and serenity. I would give 100 stars if I could.
We highly recommend booking your wedding with Drumore Estate. This was the most stress free wedding i could have imagined! They coordinated and planned everything including set up and tear down. All the staff were wonderful and so kind to all of our guests. The garden where the ceremony was located was absolutely breathtaking- they maintained the garden and landscape in perfect condition. The carriage house was the perfect place for a reception followed by hours of dancing. Marnie helped us coordinate the whole way through and Makenzie coordinated the day of wedding event. Makenzie was beyond amazing- she was calm, cool, and collected as well as very fun! Any little request we had she made sure she got it done and would think about things for the guest to make their experience even better. The food was amazing- great taste and many options. We highly recommend this venue!!
If you are in search of the optimum setting for your event, big or small, look no further. The entire team at Drumore Estate is absolutely brilliant, and our day was perfection. From the early planning stages (~10 months in advance) to the final moments of the day, we felt confident in selecting Drumore Estate, and knew that we were in good hands! Marnie and her team helped to create an unforgettable "micro-wedding" event, and flawlessly delivered. Communication was superb, professional, and timely. Cost of our event was quite reasonable compared to other outdoor venues in the area, which included catering with our package. We could not have asked for a better experience and will recommend Drumore Estate to others!
I had worked this location doing hair for weddings and was totally in love with this place! So I knew the place I would go when I was going to be married was Drumore. The staff and place exceeded my expectations! I couldn't have asked for more! Also a special shout out to Marnie, I would work with her a thousand times over and put all my trust in her.
Marnie and the entire team at Drumore Estate brought their A game to make our day (4/16/2022) nothing short of absolutely perfect. Marnie held our hands throughout the entire year long prep and walked us through every step of the way, making the process as easy as possbile. If there were any hiccups or issues on the day of the wedding, we never knew about them because the Drumore team handled them quickly and perfectly. The stunning venue speaks for itself, but the thing that makes it the ultimate wedding venue is really the staff who were all friendly, helpful, quick, and flexible. Our guests are also still raving about how delicious the all of the food was!!
I cannot say enough about how truly perfect the day was, which was helped even further by the recommended vendor list provided by the venue -- we were able to book our photographer and DJ (arguably two of the most important parts of the day after the venue) based on the Drumore recommendations, and we had an INCREDIBLE experience with all of them, our guests are still raving about them!!! You will absolutely not regret booking the Drumore Estate!
My wife and I were one of the unfortunate Covid couples who had to reschedule our wedding several times. We had originally booked Drumore for our wedding and reception for Spring of 2020, then early summer 2020, late summer 2020.... until our last rebooking in fall 2021. Throughout the whole process, Karen and the Drumore wedding coordinators were amazing and super helpful. Marnie in particular took great care of us and couldn't have been more fantastic. The venue and grounds are beautiful year round and I feel lucky to have found such a gem for our special day.
Our wedding was on 5/30/21! This was just at the end of the PA Covid Pandemic shut down so it was extremely stressful! Marnie and staff guided us through the entire process as best they could!
They accommodated our buffet decision by having staff on site to do a served buffet! This ensured we were all within safe Covid protocols etc..
We had some weather issues but Marnie and staff made it so seamless that it was as if the sun was shining all day :)
We ended the night with a bang as this venue allows you to have fireworks :) we had a firework vendor work with the local fire depot and venue! Marnie helped us navigate all the legal stuff and made it so easy!!! If you truly want to have an easy carefree day and have all the attention on your and your spouse then Marnie and team at Drumore estate are the best in the business!!! Marnie will bring the HYPE, honestly one of the most energetic and amazing people!!! So much fun to work with :)
I can vouch for you that you will not be disappointed with Drumore estate!
I can’t say enough great things about Drumore Estate. We selected Drumore because it is truly beautiful. All of the spaces for the ceremony and receptions are so nice— beautiful views of the Lancaster countryside, well maintained gardens, cozy Carriage House. We also loved the spaces for the bridal party and groomsmen to use while getting ready. Once we booked, we had so much support from the event coordinator, Marnie. She answered all of our questions along the way and always provided useful advice. The week of she went above and beyond with responding to last minute questions, coordinating drop offs, etc. The day of our wedding was a bit stressful with bad weather, but all the staff made an effort to accommodate us and ultimately we couldn’t have asked for a better day. We have received so many compliments about the beautiful venue and amazing staff from friends and family! So grateful for all the effort they put in to make our day so special and everything we wanted!
Where do I begin...Drumore Estate went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more! The Drumore Estate was the only venue I looked at, the grounds are absolutely gorgeous and the bridal suite/grooms room are to die for! From the initial tour of the venue, to our planning and tasting sessions everything was seamless. Marine was amazing to work with, she is so fun and helpful! She made my vision come to life, and assured I had the best of the best for all our other vendors. The day of she made sure we had everything we need including drinks and food. The entre staff was friendly and so helpful throughout the whole process, the food was amazing! Everyone can't stop talking about what a beautiful and fun day the wedding was! I can honestly say I loved every minute of our wedding day and I wouldn't change one thing, I owe all my thanks and gratitude to the Drumore Estate, Marnie and the entire staff for assuring our wedding day was perfect!

Drumore Estate was our dream venue. They had everything we were looking for; a bridal suite AND a groomsmen lounge, a beautiful outdoor space for our ceremony in their ceremonial garden with a long brick walkway, a large tented space with optional heaters for our reception, and both the courtyard area & orangery at our disposal for after-dinner dancing. The grounds are immaculately kept and look beautiful all year round. We were so happy with the outcome of our wedding day -- Thank you Drumore dream team! -Alyssia & Jeff
Great food, great service, great planning by our onsite wedding planner, Marnie, in a an amazing, beautiful venue. Couldn't have been a better day for our daughter and her new husband!
Drumore Estate and Marnie were wonderful! Can't recommend the venue enough, thank you everyone!
My husband and I gave ourselves less than 9 months to plan our wedding because of how excited we were to get hitched. The biggest struggle we had was finding a venue that we both loved and had our date available. When a family member suggested we look into Drumore Estates we booked a tour. This was the FIRST and ONLY venue we toured because we knew we didn't have to look further after having an amazing time at our tour! We both fell in love with the views and the staff was more than welcoming and friendly! Working with Marnie was SO much fun, we love her spunk and passion for weddings! The best part was, we were able to create our own menu for the buffet! Neither of us are fans of salads or veggies, we got taco dip and pulled pork! The staff was very helpful with planning and making sure we had everything we needed set up so both me and my husband could relax on our special day. HIGHLY recommend Drumore Estates!
My husband and I got married at Drumore Estate on 10/1/21 and have to give them a 10000/10 star review! We were completely blown away at our first visit by the beauty of the venue and the inclusiveness of their packages for weddings. You simply cannot be the views at this venue!! We immediately felt like we were at home and were welcomed by the owners and all of the staff on the property. Marnie, the on-site facilitator, is just incredible. We planned our wedding over 2 years during COVID and she never let us worry or miss a beat as she was completely on top of tracking milestones and meeting with us to go over every detail you could think of! Marnie had an answer for every question I had and was so accomodating and responsive. They have great recommendations and relationships with vendors in the area, and took care of so much vendor coordination so everything ran smoothly on our wedding day. They also do all of the catering (minus cakes) on-site and have a huge, customizable menu - and I swear it's the best dinner I've ever had!! We still have guests raving about the food from the wedding reception and rehearsal dinner. I can't find a single complaint about this venue or our experience. It was the most PERFECT place to celebrate the best day of our lives!!
Drumore Estate was the perfect wedding venue for our big day. From the venue and property to the food and service, we could not have asked for a better team and experience. We are so thankful for Marnie and her kick-butt organization and enthusiasm. Drumore is incredible and I would recommend it to anyone.
Drumore Estate is an absolutely perfect venue. It's a glorious mix of beautiful landscapes, A++ Team full of the hardest working people, and absolutely delicious food!! If I could give them more than 5 stars I would in a heartbeat. Marnie and her incredible team helped us plan the best night of our lives that we will always always always cherish and remember. I can't thank them enough!!!
Drumore Estate is THE perfect place for a wedding. The entire team from first visit to day of event were awesome amazing. The venue is breathtaking, the service wonderful and delicious and the team that manages especially Marnie and Kevin are the best. We love them and everything they did to make our daughters wedding and now son- in Law day a day they will never forget. All the guests could not say enough about how wonderful everything was and are still talking about it. Thanks Drumore Estate- you are THE BEST!!!!
Drumore is incredible. All leading up to the planning and everything, Marnie helped to make the process easy and was always there to answer our questions. We had our wedding there last weekend and it couldn’t have been more perfect and our guests are still raving about how incredible the day was, and how amazing the Drumore crew was. So happy we picked them!!
Drumore Estate was top notch! The venue is gorgeous! The grounds are beautiful and pristine. Not a weed in sight! Kevin and Marnie were there every step of the way. Never seemed annoyed and always happy to help. The food was wonderful! Guests have been telling me that this was the nicest wedding they have ever been to. I highly recommend Drumore Estate!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Drumore Estate! We toured a lot of venues, and this was our favorite by far. Not only is it beautiful, but it was very affordable since we chose to get married on a Friday and an off-season month (July). Marnie, our wedding coordinator, was absolutely amazing from the first phone call we had with her. She made the day go so smoothly and it was so wonderful to not have to worry about a thing! Our day was absolutely perfect and our guests raved about the location, the food, and the staff. By the way, Karen, David, Bill and the rest of the team are AMAZING! Everyone was so kind and made us feel so special.
I loved the fact that almost everything is included on-site. For instance, they have table numbers, easels, card boxes, linens, and lots of other items they let you use! We had the most perfect day and Drumore Estate truly made it one of the best days of our lives.
We had the most amazing day celebrating our wedding at Drumore Estate! It exceeded all of our expectations and was well worth the wait. Throughout the whole process (postponement and all) Marnie and the staff were so incredibly kind, accommodating and helpful every step of the way. Marnie was a godsend, always there to be a sounding board or provide guidance and recommendations, was so patient with my countless questions and was there to ensure everything went according to plan and schedule the day of.
The property itself is absolutely breathtaking and is truly one of a kind venue. The grounds and gardens are beautiful and the estate offers spectacular views and photos ops. As if the views and grounds aren’t enough, the food is incredible!
After our big day, my husband and I talked about how incredible our wedding was and guests did not stop raving about it either! I highly recommend Drumore Estate to any future brides and grooms, I guarantee you will not be disappointed!
We have officially hit our 3 month anniversary and I think back to our wedding day quite often. I had done a lot of research before going to any venues and Drumore Estate was at the top of my list from the very beginning. So what sold us on Drumore? Well, the stunning property was the first thing. The estate is just beautiful. I feel in love with the carriage house the moment I saw it. Because of Covid we had to be outside. Drumore was so accommodating. They set up the Grand Tent earlier than normal, and still allowed me to have some touches from the carriage house that I loved so much. My husband was sold on the grooms lounge downstairs and I was so excited to be in the newly renovated bridal sweet. It had enough space for me and all my girls (5 bridesmaids and 2 flower girls). The staff at Drumore sold us as well. When you love something it’s easy to sell, and it is clear that the employees love their job and take pride in their work. Marnie, our wedding day facilitator always answered my questions no matter how big or small and was willing to go above and beyond to help me with decor if needed. She listened to what we wanted and even if something wasn’t feasible for our budget she had ideas and suggestions to help us still make it happen just in another way. We had enough confidence in the Drumore staff that because of Covid we never even did a taste testing and our food turned out amazing! All of David’s suggestions were spot on and there was plenty of food for our guests! We are so thankful we choose Drumore Estate to celebrate our wedding and we would do it again!
We loved having our wedding at Drumore Estate! They were flexible and easy to work with throughout the entire process. It is a beautiful venue and all of our vendors expressed how much they loved worked there as well!
So beautiful and the staff is FANTASTIC!!
My wedding ceremony was Magically and absolutely beautiful! They are beyond professional and listen during a pandemic I couldn’t have had a better wedding ceremony! I was mind blown by the decor and the CAKE!!!! Words cannot describe how wonderful the staff are I’m so thankful to Drumore and my fantastic wedding planner Chelsea!
The venue, mansion, setting, and the excellent care that the folks at Drumore did for Kelly and Corey's wedding 9/26/20 was spectacular. You cannot do a wedding any better than Drumore with Marnie hosting/coordinating and Dave as chef. Phenomenal experience, fantastic food from Dave, an unbeatable service from Steve Smith of Red Rose Beverage Solutions, amazing guy. These folks are all top shelf, wonderful people, and fun to work with. As the mother and father of the bride, I can without question recommend Drumore for your next event. Kudos also to Executive Coach and Premier Limousine for getting the entire wedding goers back and forth safely from Lancaster Marriott-also great to deal with. (Sarah Babski-awesome). Heather Kendig- amazing flowers (Floral Designs by Heather Ann). Go Drumore!!
With great appreciation,
Tom and Debby Brooks
Taylor and I were married at the Drumore Estate on October 30, 2020 and we are reeling over how perfect the day was from start to finish. Not only did we feel completely taken care of and supported, but the execution of each detail was exquisite. From the moment we reached the end of the long drive way at our very first visit, we knew this was the place we wanted to get married. The views alone are enough to take your breath away. Our first tour showed all the areas of the estate that we would have access to and it completely surpassed any other venue we had visited. (70 acres of lush, idyllic landscape, surrounding a stunning home). We worked closely with Marnie and David who go above and beyond for each and every client. We felt that they completely understood what we wanted for our wedding and were willing to do whatever it took to make it happen. From the design and color of the napkins to the passable appetizers and three course meal, they both executed their roles perfectly! Their motto of "customizable weddings" is completely true and provided us a truly unique experience we will cherish for a lifetime. We cannot recommend the Drumore Estate highly enough and feel so deeply grateful for everything the staff, and even the owners, did to make our day as special as possible. Thank you so so much Marnie, David, Karyn and Bill for giving us the wedding of our dreams!
~ Blair and Taylor
We had an absolutely wonderful experience at the Drumore! When we initially started looking at venues we were not sure what we were really looking for, but when we pulled up and saw the views we were immediately sold. Not only is the estate gorgeous and spacious with amazing views, but Marnie and David were phenomenal to work with and a true pleasure to be around. They helped guide us through the process of truly understanding what we wanted our wedding to look like and then executed our vision perfectly. The food was delicious and the event flowed perfectly thanks to all Marnie and David's coordinated efforts. We really can't recommend this venue and it's team highly enough!! Even amidst the Covid pandemic they made our dreams a reality, thank you Marnie and David.
Drumore is absolutely stunning, when my husband and I went to see it we knew that was the place. The house was beautiful and we loved the areas for us to get ready. We also loved the friendly staff at Drumore and appreciate show helpful they were. My husband lost his ring during the sunset photos and they spent so much time searching the ground with a metal detector to find it. Also the sunset photos alone are enough to sell anyone on picking this as a venue. The food was phenomenal and I got so many compliments on it. The salmon is totally amazing!!!! The only downfall of the wedding was Covid but they took so many extra precautions I felt good about having all of our loved ones there.
When my husband and I were looking for a wedding venue, we were looking for a spot with natural beauty that did not feel like a stuff wedding hall/venue. We looked at TWO venues, Drumore being the second one, and we booked the next day!! Not only is Drumore one of the most picturesque places, sitting high on the hill overlooking the beautiful lands of Lancaster County, with perfect gardens, and grounds, BUT the staff are all you need for a perfect day!! Plus, the owners, Bill and Karen are there every step of the way to make you feel like you are hanging out at your family's home!! Meghan (who unfortunately is no longer with Drumore, but still came to our wedding day because she is incredible!) showed us the grounds, talked about the options Drumore offered and sold us in an hour! We got to meet with David, the head chef and general manager as well. We were the first couple he sat with to discuss meal options and we were ready to sign on! David is a master in the kitchen!! He came up with meal options for us, and when we asked him for a more unique menu, he blew us away!! All of our guests were raving about the food!! David can make anything your heart desires and he does it well! Marnie is the best wedding planner/coordinator and she comes with Drumore?! You will not fully appreciate Marnie's talents until you wake up the day after your wedding and realize all that Marnie did to make your day perfect. We met Marnie at our tasting in February (she was new to the team and we fell in love immediately!) Marnie worked with us to plan out the PERFECT day (and re-plan the perfect micro day-thanks Covid!). Just when you think the preplanning is incredible, wait until you arrive on your wedding day! Marnie is there helping you with things, before you even think of the things you need help with! She makes the day run seamless and takes away any and all stressors/worries to allow you to enjoy your day! I cannot say this enough to any and all couples: having a human like Marnie on your wedding day makes the world of difference! We dropped off our decor Wednesday before the wedding and gave a few instructions. I had no idea what the space would look like and could have never imagined the perfect space that was created. Marnie and her team created an intimate, picture perfect setting for our day, and went along with all my crazy ideas-champagne tower anyone?! If given a thousand chances to book a different venue/team, we would pick Drumore, and this all-star cast over, and over again!
Now let's talk about Covid. Not an easy year for the wedding industry, and yet Bill, Karen, David and Marnie, were kind, understanding, and worked to ensure our day, all though much smaller than planned, was still perfect! We will never be able to express our gratitude for their kindness and understanding during what could have been a terrible time. We heard horror stories about other couples and their wedding venue/caterer. Drumore's team did not allow that to be our experience. We cannot wait to come back next year, with all of our friends and family, and celebrate with our dream team!!
