We had our wedding at Holly Hedge in August of 2023 and one word to sum it all up is “WOW!”. We are blown away by not only how gorgeous the venue is, but the people who helped us along the way. Michele, Gabby & team from start to finish were exceptional. Leading up to our special day, they were on top of everything! They answered all questions and always made sure we were comfortable and confident in all of our decisions. Gabby was our day of coordinator and she kept spirits high, never missed a beat and was there to support and honestly brought the HYPE! There was not one moment that my husband and I had to even think about what was happening next. I’m now begging friends and family to get married there just so I can go back. Alls to say, if I could do it all again, I wouldn’t change a single thing.
Choosing HollyHedge Estate was the easiest and best decision my husband and I made during the wedding planning process. The grounds are a spectacular setting and provide unparalleled ambiance and character. Michele was wonderful to work with during the lead up to the wedding, and is very kind and patient with questions and concerns. Michele and the rest of the staff were incredibly organized and made sure our wedding day ran extremely smoothly—at no point did we feel anything but complete confidence in their ability to ensure a perfect wedding experience. The food during the reception and at the cocktail hour was excellent, and our guests are still talking about it! I highly recommend HollyHedge Estate!

Jennifer, thank you for your kind words! We are so glad you remember your wedding so fondly and that you had a great experience. We hope you will come back and see us in the future!
HollyHedge Estate was an absolute dream! Everyone keeps marveling at how gorgeous the venue is, how delicious the food was, and how incredible the staff treated them. Planning, even from out of state, was an absolute breeze working with the planning team! We always felt valued as a couple and their attention to detail is astounding. As a winter wedding, we had to have the ceremony indoors—the old barn was the most romantic and wonderful setting. We loved loved loved HollyHedge and cannot wait to go back for our anniversary! I would 100% recommend HollyHedge Estate if you are looking for your dream wedding day.

Amanda, thank you so much for posting this. We love the intimacy that the property can bring in the winter time, and there is nothing more romantic than old barn that time of year. We're so happy that we were able to help you all celebrate with...
your family and friends. We can't wait to see you back here for many anniversaries to come!
Any questions?
HollyHedge Estate is not only a beautiful venue for your wedding day, but also a well-oiled machine that will have you stress free! My husband and I got married here back on September 2018 – our guests raved about the decor, food, and staff. Of course, we have to agree. Every detail was perfect, and it couldn't of been accomplished without the wonderful staff. Thank you, Michele for such a perfect day! We have memories for years to come – highly recommend.

Ashley, thanks so much for the wonderful review. We love that you were able to fete your family and friends and have a celebration that was stress free. We were so thrilled to have been able to work with you all. We hope the memories never fade...
and you all can enjoy them for years to come! Thank you again for letting us be a part of the celebration.
SIMPLY AMAZING! I can not thank the staff at HollyHedge enough! From start to finish this team made wedding planning stress-free. Often times throughout our wedding planning process family members and friends would comment, "you guys are just so calm" and I have Michele, Gabbi, Key, and Meredith to thank for that! This staff is professional, honest, calm, and extremely dedicated. Whenever we had any questions, our questions were answered promptly and with honesty! Our guests are still raving about our wedding day! HollyHedge is not only absolutely beautiful, but the food is amazing! Our wedding day was exactly what we had envisioned and more! AMAZING! JUST AMAZING!
My heart fills up with joy when I talk about our wedding day and how amazing everything truly was. Thank you again to this wonderful staff that I can not thank enough for making our wedding day simply the best day ever! TEN STARS for this team!

Lindsey, Thank you so much for taking the time to write this. You all are amazing. We are so happy that we got to work with you all throughout the process and were able to keep it stress free. We will definitely share this with all the departme...
nts. We're so happy that the whole team was able to make your wedding so special. Thank you again.
We had the perfect day celebrating our November wedding at HollyHedge. We selected our date almost two years in advance and worked with Michele throughout our entire time planning. She was so responsive and my parents could not stop talking about how wonderful and calming she was. She helped us to plan our timeline and gave us honest advice on our wedding, even if it meant us spending less money at the venue! They were so accommodating with our smaller wedding (100 people) and the special requests we had. We had many guests who do not drink for religious reasons and they handled their tables without any concerns. They also helped us customize an appetizer (samosas) based on our backgrounds and it was a huge hit! Being able to get ready, have our ceremony, reception, and after-party on site made things so seamless and stress-free. My family had an amazing time and we received so many comments on how great the food was (especially the Mexican bar at cocktail hour)! The venue itself in fall is stunning and while we had to have our ceremony in our back-up location (the old barn), it was honestly better than our original plan. On the day of, Meredith/Beth were there to help us with our ceremony timing and made sure drinks were waiting for us as soon as we said 'I do'. The staff boxed up the leftover food and it was so fun the next day to get to try everything we had spent months picking out. With stressful jobs and planning a wedding from out of town, we could not have had a better stress-free experience planning and having our wedding at HollyHedge!
Response from the Vendor on 01/10/2019
Melissa, thank you for sharing this. Though, we probably don't want the word getting out that the event coordinators care more about you all having the best day than making the most money possible:) Just kidding. We know that trying to do all ...
the planning from a distance is a challenge. But you all handled it with such grace and made all of our jobs so easy. For that, we really have to thank you. We know you all will have many more wonderful moments to celebrate in the future, we hope we can be a part of some of them as well.
Dream come true! HollyHedge is beautiful, amazing, wonderful! The venue (both ceremony and reception) was everything I imagined and dreamed of for our winter wedding. It is truly picturesque, especially during sunset and at night with the lights. The old barn with the exposed stone, high ceilings, and fireplace is perfection. And the new barn is a perfect place for an awesome party. Beside the venue itself, the staff was incredible. Michelle and Meredith helped me plan every detail and didn't fail to think of anything. Beth was the most amazing, detail oriented person on the day of the wedding (on her birthday no less) and the day went without one problem. The food and wedding cake were incredible- every entree was awesome. Service was great. Atmosphere was great. And your family and friends can stay in the Bed and Breakfast- how fun! Can't say enough. Highly recommend! Love love love!

Hi Morgan, thank you for writing this on Christmas Eve! That's awesome. We are so happy that you all loved the space and that the whole team was able to execute the wedding day according to your vision. We are absolutely blessed to work in suc...
h a wonderful place and with such amazing clients. Thank you for letting us be a part of the fantastic celebration.
We got married at HollyHedge a little over a month ago. HollyHedge is absolutely the best! We live in Pittsburgh, but both our families are in the Philadelphia area. Michelle was so accommodating and helpful throughout the entire planning process! I am so thankful for all the suggestions and help they provided. HollyHedge includes and takes care of so much, it made the entire process easy!
We received so many compliments - the venue, the food, and the overall atmosphere were perfect! (I've been told by many people this was the best food they have had a wedding!!) The staff also went above and beyond the day of the wedding. I brought on site a few things I wanted set up - memorial table, cookie, table, etc - and they did it all fantastically. I really can't thank everyone enough! I would suggest HollyHedge to anyone!
Response from the Vendor on 01/10/2019
Hi Kyri, thank you for writing such a thoughtful and kind review. We are so pleased that Michele was able to help with all the planning from a distance, and that we were able to help you guys enjoy the day with all your friends and family. We l...
ove the Pittsburgh cookie table...love it! We are so excited that we were able to be a part of the whole celebration. Thank you!
Oh how my husband and I love Hollyhedge Estate. We were just married here on November 18, 2018 and we already miss it. We'd live there if we could. Prior to finding Hollyhedge, we had visited many other wedding venues, all nice, but nothing that spoke to us or gave us that feeling we were looking for, the feeling of, "this is the one." We had all but given up finding our perfect venue when we drove onto the Hollyhedge Estate property. From the second we turned in we looked at each other both filled with that "feeling." We initially met and spoke with both Michele and Gabbi. Michele took the time to show us, a couple without an appointment, the venue and how we could make it our own. Her obvious passion for the venue and expertise had us totally in love. We could not rush back to lock in the venue fast enough. From start to finish it was an absolute dream working with the Hollyhedge staff. We never skimped on an opportunity to drive up and visit - probably making more appointments than we had to just to spend a little more time on the property and with the staff. We fell more and more in love with it as we went. We cannot say enough positive things about the staff. They are incredibly professional and knowledgeable. They were able to provide exactly what we wanted. Their timeline helped us stay on track with planning and their availability to answer questions or concerns made you feel like you were the only wedding they were ever going to have. I know I felt like an absolute princess throughout especially on the day of. Meredith was our point person and we had begun getting to know her prior to the big day. Seriously, I feel like I just want to sit and hang out with Michele, Meredith and Gabbi. They are incredibly amazing ladies that I grew very fond of! Meredith made sure I had everything I needed on the big day and was pivotal in making everything run as smoothly as it did. Our guests could not stop raving about the venue, the staff and the FOOD! Did I mention the food was amazing? Because it was. Everything was perfect. PERFECT. Thanks to Hollyhedge, and of course our amazing vendors (most of which we found off the preferred vendor list provided by Hollyhedge) we were able to have our fairytale wedding.

Jennifer, you are welcome back any time. Even if you can't move in permanently, we'd be thrilled to have you as continued guests at the inn. We'd love to have the dream continue on a little longer...
Thank you for the lovely review. You all a...
re so kind. We can't thank you enough for finding us and letting us help make the dream wedding perfect. Come back and see us soon!
Meredith, Beth, and Michelle were incredible to work with. Everything went smoothly the entire day of the wedding and every conversation leading up to it. We’re so happy we chose HollyHedge Estate!
Response from the Vendor on 01/30/2020
We are thrilled that you chose HollyHedge for your wedding! Thank you for your review and thank you for letting us be part of your most special memories!
Choosing HollyHedge as our venue was, hands-down, the best decision we made for our wedding (besides deciding to get married, of course!). HollyHedge was the last venue in a long search of the Tri-State area, and we knew within minutes that this is what we had been searching for and more. A beautiful, romantic venue with soul, onsite accommodations, fantastic food, and helpful coordinators that make your day effortless - what more could you want?
From the first email exchange to sending us home with boxes of desserts, Michele, Meredith, Beth, and Gabi made our wedding breezy every step of the way. They gave honest opinions and lots of helpful suggestions for everything from floorplans to vendors. They went above and beyond to make sure our wedding is something we had time to enjoy. Even though it rained, they had a backup plan ready to go, and honestly, having the ceremony in the barn was absolutely perfect and intimate. You can’t go wrong with any of the ceremony options at HollyHedge!
HollyHedge has far-and-away the best full-service wedding package we found. The fact that so many details are included in package makes things so easy, while still providing a ton of options that truly makes your wedding customizable and reflect you a couple. And the FOOD! The food at HollyHedge is incredible - from the inventive hors d'oeuvres to the custom cake/cupcakes we ate for days afterward. Across the board, our guests have told us that this was the best food they’ve had at a wedding.
To any couple considering HollyHedge as your venue, you won’t be disappointed. They make absolute magic over there, and we wish we could relive our wedding over and over. Many thanks to the HollyHedge team!

Thank you for your kind words, Laura! Everyone here remembers your wedding so fondly and we hope you do as well. Come back and see us again sometime!
Holly Hedge Estate was the first and only venue we looked at for our wedding and we have no regrets. From our initial meeting and tour, we saw how charming and beautiful the premises is and got the feeling that we would be in good hands. And all of that was true, throughout the whole process: email and phone communications, meetings, and the day of. They are true professionals who have it down to a science. Our parents and many of our guests commented on how seamless the day felt and we owe it all to the coordinators (Michelle, Beth, and Meredith) and staff at Holly Hedge. We literally didn't have to worry about anything and were able to just enjoy the day and soak it all in. We loved that all aspects of the day would take place all at the venue and being the foodies that we are having good food was very important to us. We were so happy with the enormous food selection and the quality of the food (especially the hors d'oeuvres). Thank you Holly Hedge for making our dream wedding a reality.

Melissa, thank you so much for your nice review! You and Dan were a pleasure to work with and we hope you come back sometime for a visit!
Holly Hedge is the perfect wedding venue! My husband & I were amazed by how truly beautiful the grounds are and everything about our wedding was absolutely perfect! We are local to the area and knew exactly where we wanted to get married. The staff is such a pleasure to work with from the start of our planning process to our wedding day! If your looking for a rustic/whimsical setting for your wedding day, definitely stop by :)
Response from the Vendor on 01/30/2020
Kirsty! Thank you so much for your kind review! You two make a stunning couple and your boho-chic wedding fit beautifully with the grounds here. We hope you and Serge come back and see us in the future!
From the moment my we toured Hollyhedge, we knew it was where we needed to get married! It was without a doubt the best decision we could have made throughout our wedding planning process. The estate is beyond beautiful; it's charming and romantic and pretty much a dream wedding location. Our wedding day went off without a hitch and I had a carefree, amazingly fun day that I would love to re-live over and over! Every aspect was seamlessly coordinated and perfectly organized. The staff there are a true team of professionals and honestly some of the nicest people you will come across. We had so many guests comment on the location and how much they absolutely loved it. Beyond that, the food was so delicious (I ate my leftovers for the next 3 days after the wedding and it was STILL delicious!) If you're getting married in the New Hope area, you HAVE to check this place out.

Dear Irena, Thank you so much! We know how hectic it can be in the wake of a wedding and in your honeymoon period...we are very grateful for you sharing such wonderful feedback. It really makes us happy to hear that you had a 'carefree, amazin...
gly fun day'. We wish the same for everyone who gets married at the Estate. We can't thank you enough for letting us be a part of your family's celebration, and for being such a wonderful couple to work with from start to finish. Please don't be strangers!
We are obsessed with this venue! We chose this place due to it's breathtaking beauty, rooms on site, option for outdoor wedding, rustic charm, farm to table menu, and location. We never could have imagined that our wedding would completely surpass our expectations. The food was incredible (best wedding food I've ever had), the staff was beyond amazing- Beth & Meredith were there every step of the way to make sure our day was perfect and we had everything we needed at every moment- and Michele helped us throughout the entire process answering all of my emails. Our guests could not say enough wonderful things about this place and how accommodating everyone was. We were supposed to get married outside, but the weather didn't cooperate so I was pretty bummed. But after seeing the pictures from inside the barn, I am soooo happy we got married inside. The stone backdrop was stunning and the pictures came out incredible. Every wedding needs to be here and I just hope that my husband and I get to attend another wedding here.
Response from the Vendor on 01/30/2020
We hope you are able to attend a wedding here again too! We loved working with you and Shawn and we look forward to seeing you again someday. Thank you for your kind words!
If you want a magical, fairy tale wedding that looks like it was tucked away in a picturesque courtyard, book at HollyHedge!! It was the first venue we toured, and every other option was strictly compared to how lovely HollyHedge was. In the end, we knew our gut feeling was right, and that we definitely wanted to book our wedding here. The staff there are PROS and Michele is ON TOP of everything! She will also give you her honest opinions in order to save you money and provide a memorable experience for you and your guests. My mom and I loved and appreciated that honesty.
During the planning process, we never had to feel frazzled about all of elements handled by HollyHedge. Michele, Key (before she left), and Meredith always made us feel at ease, and helped us with all of our decisions. Not only is HollyHedge the venue, but they also handle catering and desserts. The appetizers were delicious (the chicken and waffle bites were a hit!), and I loved the variety they offered. We ended up serving filet mignon, duck breast, salmon en croute, and a vegan option. And wow the cake! As an hobby baker, this was the most important food element for me, and their pastry chef did not disappoint! Half of our tiers were earl grey tea cake with strawberry mousse, and the other half was lavender cake with lemon mousse. We received so many compliments on the unique flavors.
As for the event itself, we had a morning storm, a downed tree and power outages to deal with all before the event. The HollyHedge team worked hard to keep things running smoothly, and by the time of the ceremony, you would have no idea that anything went wrong. We didn't worry about a single detail once the ceremony started. I got to keep the ceremony outside, and I can't rave enough about the natural beauty that surrounds their courtyard. The vines, trees and other greenery provided a stunning, romantic background for our wedding, and the photos looked amazing! Many, many thanks to the HollyHedge team for our dream wedding!!

What a day that was! We had so much fun helping you plan your wedding and we hope you and Michael come back and visit us in the future. Thank you so much for your kind review!
I just had my dream wedding at the HollyHedge Estate. From the moment we saw the grounds, my husband and I knew this is where we wanted to get married. You could say it was love at first sight! There is not one place on the property that is anything but beautiful! Set back from the road, the HollyHedge Estate is from a fairy tale with a secret garden, rustic feel. What really made the wedding perfect though are the people who work there. All of the staff, including Michele, Meredith, Beth, and Gabbi, went above and beyond to make our wedding perfect They are with you every step of the planning process, and do everything imaginable to make the day magical. I am the third child in my family to get married, and my parents were in awe at how amazing and helpful the staff at the HollyHedge are. There's no team like them anywhere else! And if a gorgeous venue and amazing staff are not enough, let me tell you about the food! The food at the HollyHedge is delicious! My guests kept telling me they have never been to a wedding like ours, and the night was perfect. I am so, so happy to have discovered the HollyHedge and to have married the love of my life there.

Jennifer, thank you for this. We may have to steal some of your language describing the property for our advertisements. You are so generous in your description - we couldn't have painted a better picture:) On behalf of all our staff, we are so...
grateful to have worked with you all. To be honest, when two people are so in love, our job is very easy. We simply hold up a spotlight to let you all shine. Thank you again for letting HollyHedge be the backdrop for your celebration!
We recently had our wedding at HollyHedge on August 3rd. I am not sure I can quite put into words how absolutely wonderful the staff was and how breathtaking our day ended up being. The staff at HollyHedge is SO knowledgeable and helpful in every way. They were responsive to e-mails and phone calls, especially once we were in the final countdown. Meredith, Michele, and Beth made sure every detail was ironed out and the staff on the day of our wedding were friendly, helpful, and extremely quick.
The actual venue is naturally beautiful and our guests were in awe of how gorgeous everything was. We didn't need to go overboard with the decorations because of the natural beauty of HollyHedge. I would repeat our wedding day over and over again if I could; not only because it was the best day of our lives, but because HollyHedge truly went out of their way to make sure our day was nothing short of perfect and momorable.
Response from the Vendor on 10/02/2018
Dear Simone, we are so happy that the day was all you had hoped it would be. We know that all the planning that goes into the wedding can be overwhelming...and that we may be a little nudgy when trying to get all the details planned...but it is...
all so worthwhile to be able to allow you to celebrate and have perfect day with your family and friends. Thank you so much for being so much fun to work with, and for be so kind in writing such a lovely review. We will share your warm words with all our staff. We do hope you'll visit us over and over again...and we capture a little of the magic of your wedding once again.
Holly Hedge Estate was truly magnificent. Everything was absolutely perfect on our wedding day. The property and grounds are magical, I got so many compliments about the venue from the guests! The staff was so attentive and accomodating. Michele was wonderful and so easy to work with. I was planning my wedding from New York with very limited days off but they made every effort to fit me in on the few days that I did have off. The food was also phenomenal. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone!

Andrea, thank you so much for the very kind words. We always love to hear that your guests are as excited about their experience as you all were. We loved working with you, and glad that we could make the long-distance planning a little bit les...
s stressful. "Magical" and "magnificent", we might quote you on that:) Thanks for letting us be a part of such a wonderful celebration.
We just had our wedding here about a week ago and I am still blown away by how seamlessly the entire day came together. This was the only venue my husband and I visited and we knew as soon as we stepped out of the car that this was it for us. It truly is the epitome of rustic elegance. Michele and Key worked with us throughout the entire process to ensure every detail was the way we wanted it to be. We got so many compliments from guests about how kind the staff was, how exceptional the service at dinner was, and how smoothly and seamlessly the entire day ran. On our wedding day both Beth and Katie helped with setting up all of the things we had brought for the day, and I couldn't have done it better myself. They perfectly executed my entire vision, and worked seamlessly along with each one of our vendors to ensure everything ran smoothly. I honestly cannot recommend this venue enough. Thank you to Michele, Beth, Key, and Katie and all of the incredible staff for making my day even more beautiful than I had imagined!

Maura, thank you so much for taking a moment to share your kind thoughts. We are so happy that we were able to be a part of the wedding process from start to finish, and helped ensure that the big day went seamlessly. You and Phil were a total...
joy to work with. We hope you come back and see us often! Thank you again.
Wonderfully beautiful venue. The staff was incredibly helpful, accommodating, and responsive. We wanted a venue where we could do everything in one space, including rooms for the night and HollyHedge provided all of that and then some. The food was amazing and portion sizes were generous. Overall, the staff at HollyHedge made our wedding day everything we could have asked for. Booking with them was the best decision we could have made.
Response from the Vendor on 07/10/2018
Hi Emily, thanks to you and Greg for letting us play a part in your celebration. We are so happy the convenience of doing everything in one sight may have eliminated some of the stress of the planning process. We loved be able to work with you...
both to plan the wedding. Thank you for sharing the lovely feedback.
You will not be disappointed!!! I can't say enough good things about HollyHedge and the staff! Eric and I only saw 2 venues, and HollyHedge was our first venue, and when we stepped onto the property, we already knew it was definitely the one. Our November wedding felt like it flew by in the blink of an eye, but the day was extremely surreal and magical. The staff, the food, the venue...everything was even more than Eric and I could have dreamed of. Michele was an instrumental part in getting everything coordinate for the big day in November. She was extremely personable and made sure everything went according to plan. We were even planning from miles away so she was flexible with phone calls and emails which was extremely helpful for us. I also was extremely indecisive with the dessert (my own fault, but I knew could cause a problem), but Michele worked with me a week prior to the wedding to ensure the vision I had was executed at the wedding since I wasn't a big "cake person." Then you have Gabbi, who was an all star accommodator. She made sure to check in with the room bookings to ensure everything was set up for our guests. She was even able to quickly turn the rooms for the day of so the early check-ins could be accommodated since we had quite a few out of town guests on my husband's side. She is super personable and friendly! Once November 11th came around, we worked with Key and Beth. The morning of the wedding, Key was there to check-in on us and make sure everything was set up for us to get ready. She handled the decorating, and it turned out beautifully (better than I could have ever put together). I even forgot vases for the flowers, and she had them set up in the reception so the flowers would survive the night. Before walking down the aisle, she even ensured my dress wasn't sticking to me because of the static so we were using a dryer sheet to de-static it. At cocktail hour, she put together our own personal plate of appetizers. Key was awesome and we couldn't have asked for a better point person the day of! She did everything above and beyond, and we couldn't appreciate her more! At the reception, Beth took care of us, and she made sure we ate and were fully stocked on drinks. The whole day was just wonderful, and Eric and I didn't have to worry about anything the day of besides just having fun and enjoying our guests. The food was also AMAZING!! Our guests still tell us it's the best food they've ever had at a wedding. I cannot say enough good things about HollyHedge. The beautiful setting is just the start of an amazing day then you factor in the wonderful staff and delicious food and it makes for a perfect wedding day!
Holly Hedge made our wedding absolutely perfect! Every detail was handled with care and consideration. Beth, Gabbi, Key and Michele are a team of rockstars that have the best recommendations. I was so nervous that I wouldn't be able to plan a great wedding but it was actually easy with their help. They are very responsive to e-mails, the day of is amazing and it allows the bride to really enjoy the day. Thank you so much for everything - I can't wait to come back for our anniversaries!
Holly Hedge Estate is an absolutely gorgeous venue and the Event team as well as the B&B Staff made our wedding day seamless and feel effortless.
My fiance and I are so thrilled with how our entire wedding day turned out and ultimately the entire wedding planning process - all thanks to Holly Hedge Estate!
Key, Michele, and Katie were all amazing to work with and made sure our day was exactly what we envisioned! We couldn't have asked for a better team to be with us by our side every step of the way.
Gabbi (the Innkeeper) made sure that all of our guests were taken care of from the time they arrived at Holly Hedge as well as the 1740 House through their departure.
Our guests cannot stop raving about the food, decor, atmosphere, staff friendliness - the list goes on and on!
We are forever grateful to the team at Holly Hedge Estate for making our most special day so memorable.
We highly recommend this incredible wedding venue and hope to be able to attend a friend's wedding at Holly Hedge one day so we can experience it all from the other side!!
I can't say enough about how perfect our wedding was because of the HollyHedge staff and the venue itself. We got married on October 22, which was the perfect fall day. The venue was beautiful, with all of the fall foliage out in mass! All of the staff were always at our fingertips if we needed anything; even the tiniest of details were addressed within seconds. My husband and I constantly talk about how perfect the day was and how lucky we are to have chosen HollyHedge. So many of our guests commented on the site and how gorgeous it was. One of our guests even told us she plans to use the venue for her 20th anniversary. Thank you to Michele, Key and the entire HollyHedge staff for creating such an amazing memory for us! - Holly & Dennis
Where to start? HollyHedge is a beautiful location in any season. The staff/coordinators are all extremely helpful, friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. I never had a concern that wasn't addressed or resolved successfully. On the day of my wedding, Beth was so attentive; making sure I had enough fluids to keep from getting dehydrated and that everyone in the bridal party had eaten. I could not have asked for a better wedding - it all went so smoothly and I felt completely secure in knowing that the staff had everything under control.
I don’t even know where to start in all my praise and gratitude to the wonderful people at Holly Hedge Estate!!! I had my wedding there on October 29th after looking at several venues. Ultimately we fell in love with the picturesque, diverse but intimate setting at Holly Hedge and once we met the wonderful staff and were walked through the service that they had to offer It was not even a question that we would have our wedding there. Key and Michele made the entire nearly year long planning process fun and exciting and we knew that we were in the hands of the utmost professionals. From the tasting dinner to the planning meetings with Michele (and all the great advice!) and emails we had over the coming months, we loved the level of personalization, and selection available to us within a structure that clearly was a well oiled machine- and took so much weight off of us in the decision making process and creation of our perfect vision for the day!
On the day of the wedding It poured all day long but the backup plan to be inside was not only well executed-with the entire staff helping with canopies and umbrellas, we actually felt that the rain made the day even more special that we were able to enjoy the magical and intimate beauty of the old barn as a backdrop for our ceremony! We were even shuttled to some of the outdoor areas where we wanted photos in a golf cart to grab the best shots before the ceremony. It was perfect!
The food was AWESOME!!! The guests were raving about the food and my husband and I were happy to be given the appetizers to snack on during the cocktail hour to toast over a glass of champagne! Key then so deftly and expertly bustled my complicated gown that I laughed at how relieved I’m sure my MOH and mom were to not have to tackle that monster! Later, Beth and the team were so present and on top of things that It felt like if I even looked around with a question on my face that someone was immediately there with an answer plus an answer to a question I didn’t even know I had! At dinner we were so well taken care of by Mike that we felt like royalty and the guests couldn’t stop raving about the beautiful presentation and delicious food. The cake was beautiful and we loved how we were able to accommodate the GF crowd. Compliments to the chef times a million!
Gabbi was instrumental in keeping us informed of potential issues and making sure that we were absolutely happy with everything on an ongoing basis and especially despite some of the last minute weather changes. Also- I don’t know when any of you amazing ladies actually sleep- but she also took care of everyone for the breakfast the next morning at Holly Hedge for our party, friends and family who stayed there and It was absolutely delicious and really fun! Some of us had crazy orders and she make them perfect without blinking while Michele helped us wrap up and organize everything to take home.
Key, Michele, Beth, Gabbi and the entire staff were so beyond incredible helping me, our parties, guests, vendors and everyone throughout the day to run everything flawlessly that I truly could not imagine working with anyone else. I have never been taken care of like this in my entire life or felt so supported. We were all blown away by how amazingly attentive and intuitive and ahead of everything they were in communicating and executing even the tiniest detail. Truly ladies... bravo!!! And thank you so so much from the bottom of my heart!!!
WOW! I am SO thrilled that we chose Holly Hedge Estate for my daughter’s wedding this past Sunday. After looking at a variety of venues, we fell in love with Holly Hedge and all they have to offer. The estate is simply gorgeous! Beautifully landscaped gardens and grounds, a stone barn, architectural elements that we knew would add such charm to the wedding and photographs. One of the first things we appreciated was how ‘all inclusive’ their package was. Michele and Key made our months of preparation stress-free. They handled so many details, kept us on track, maintained wonderful communication, and were so professional! It rained on Sunday and the staff didn’t blink!! They created umbrella trains for the wedding party to arrive “dry” to the ceremony and cocktail hour in the Old Barn and then to the reception in the New Barn. They used a golf cart to transport the bride and groom to the field, in the rain, so they could get the outdoor photos my daughter wanted. Beth kept us on schedule and communicated with us throughout the day, keeping to our timeline of events. Our guests were so complimentary of the incredible service during the cocktail hour and reception…nothing but praise for all those who made sure drinks, appetizers, and meals were promptly provided for all. And the food during the cocktail hour and meal during the reception….DELICIOUS!! I was so thrilled and suprised to see that they had packed up any left-over food we brought into our “ready rooms” for the bridal party and groomsmen and set it up for our After Party in the Old Barn. This staff is not only professional, but work as an incredibly efficient team. They can provide you with a list of recommended vendors that are top notch! At the end of the day, we loved that we could stay in one of the 15 rooms they have available and wake up to a delicious breakfast with family and friends the morning after the wedding! Holly Hedge Estates far exceeded our expectations in making our daughter’s wedding an event that we will forever cherish.

It is so nice to get a review from a parent of the bridge and groom. We aim to make sure that all our guests are having a great time, and that the bride and groom are thrilled with their experience, but we secretly always try to make sure the i...
mmediate family is able to relax and have fun. While the weather threw us a few curve balls, it was really not a big deal because your group were so laidback and fun to work with. You all could teach a class on how to roll with the unexpected, and how to make the best out of a potentially bad day. We are glad that we exceeded expectations...that is an ongoing goal...but we also need to thank you, the bride and groom, and all your guests for being such great sports and for having so much fun. It's easy to work hard when you love the people you're working for! Thank you

WOW....magical, amazing, beautiful, glorious, the list can go on and on
As the father of the bride I was so very pleased with our total experience at Holly Hedge from the very first visit up to the day of our wedding. Michelle and Key, as well as the entire staff are outstanding professionals as well as just great people.
The entire property provides one beautiful setting. Dont pass up the opportunity to have this venue make your special day even MORE special
Response from the Vendor on 11/02/2017
Wow, love this review. We think Michele and Key and the rest of our team are pretty amazing...but we are obviously biased. We are super excited to hear that everyone made your wedding experience so positive. We always love lists of positive thi...
ngs...but the simple truth is that everyone here loves what we do, and we love working with amazing couples and families and all sorts of fun groups to throw epic celebrations. We are honored to be a part of so many big occasions. Thank you for letting us be a part of yours!
Absolutely the best choice for a wedding venue. The food was amazing, the staff was incredible, and the grounds are gorgeous. I can not praise them enough.
Response from the Vendor on 11/02/2017
Thank you so much for the very kind words. I know our chefs, our staff and our whole maintenance/groundskeeping team will be happy to hear that we hit your expectations and you all were able to have a great wedding. Thank you, thank you!
Amazing! Fabulous! Beautiful! It's almost indescribable how perfect this venue is. My husband and I got married at HollyHedge a few weeks ago and we honestly could not have been happier. Michelle and Key were so incredibly helpful through the whole planning process which started over a year ago and were tantamount to making our day easy, stress-free, and fun.. Seriously, everything was done for us, we barely had to do a thing the day of, except sip champagne and get married! The entire staff at HollyHedge is phenomenal, the food at the cocktail hour and reception was all delicious, and our guests had the time of their lives! Not to mention how gorgeous the grounds are (absolutely PERFECT for taking pictures and getting the best shots for our wedding). Everyone who attended said it was one of the best weddings they have been to and the pictures I have seen so far are proof. You can only give five stars but if I could I would give more and then add some exclamation marks, thumbs up, rainbows, fireworks, etc. to this review. We would recommend HollyHedge to anyone we know or strangers we come across who are planning a wedding. It was a day we will never forget and we have HollyHedge and its amazing staff to thank!!!!!
Response from the Vendor on 11/02/2017
Hehe, this review made us smile. We like when we make it difficult to describe the positive attributes of your experience. But, thank you for these very kind words. It really does make our entire team thrilled, ecstatic, overjoyed to know that ...
we helped make your wedding the perfect, stress-free experience that you'll remember fondly. We hope we can be a part of other exciting moments throughout your lives together. We loved being part of your celebration.
WOW! All I can say is WOW!
We got married at Hollyhedge a little over a month ago, and I have been trying to think of exactly how to word this review.
Firstly, the venue is beautiful and the food is amazing.
But that's not what made our wedding perfect. Our wedding was perfect because of Key, Michele, Gabbi, and about a half dozen others who went well above and beyond our expectations.
My husband and I live in Hong Kong, but my family is from the Philadelphia area. Planning a wedding from 8,000 miles away can make a bride go crazy, but with the extremely dedicated, professional, and attentive staff at HollyHedge, the planning was seamless. They had no problem FaceTiming us into meetings and making accommodations for all of our special needs. The chef even learned a few new Indian recipes (hubs is from India) to personalize our menu.
The entire 13 month planning period was so stressfree because of how Key and Michele would answer our questions and alleviate our nerves. The day of the wedding was so easy! Every single need was taken care of from the second that we woke up!
This venue is so beautiful- with the rustic charm and green space-- but honestly, the staff here are seriously magic.
I wish that I could give more than 5 stars.
Response from the Vendor on 11/02/2017

ocess. It's amazing how technology and patience can allow us to shrink seemingly impossible distances. We are just so glad that you and your families were able to enjoy your time together without any stress. Thanks for letting us be part of the fun!
HollyHedge is the PERFECT wedding venue if you are looking for outdoorsy and rustic. We were married here in June 2017 and had the most beautiful wedding!! Planning and communicating with Michele was easy and comfortable and many of our guests have gone out of their way to say it was the best wedding they've been to. The food was amazing, the property is beautiful and the staff is great. Everyone was taken care of and every time my wedding comes up with ANY guest since, the mashed potato bar is brought up (Don't pass on the mashed potato bar. HUGE HIT -even in June-). I highly recommend having the after party at HollyHedge, it was so nice to enjoy the property (and keep the party going) for a few more hours.
My one piece of advice: We were unaware until a few weeks before our wedding that Michele would not be running our wedding the day of. She was the person we planned with and so, the day of, there were a few hiccups. They were certainly not noticeable to our guests but little things that we (and our parents) were aware of. I suggest you have your final meeting with the day-of person (Key).
Response from the Vendor on 11/02/2017
Eek - we are so sorry that we didn't reply sooner. First, thank you for taking the time to write this. We are thrilled that overall we hit the mark on almost all of the important points and the overall experience was so positive for you and you...
r guests. The chef's will be super excited to hear the mashed potato bar was such a hit:)
But, we do take your point regarding the final planning meeting to heart. We are continuing to work on our process of internal communication and organization so that no detail - no matter how big or how small - is ever missed on the day of the wedding. For the few small things that we did miss, we are sorry.
We had our dream wedding at Holly Hedge last month (July 2017). Key, Michele, and everyone at Holly Hedge exceeded all of our expectations and made both the wedding, and the wedding planning process amazing experiences! We planned our wedding from across the country, and they were so accommodating to us- doing things over the phone and by email so that we didn't feel like we were missing out just because we lived so far away. Everyone was professional, friendly and easy to talk to. They continued to be awesome the day before and the day of the wedding. Key is a pro, and made everything easy, and is also just so friendly and nice to be around. In addition to the great people and service, the grounds are unbelievably beautiful. We had compliments from guests all day about how our wedding was one of the most beautiful they've been to, and we have the amazing pictures to prove it! Thank you Holly Hedge for giving us our wedding, we are forever grateful, and would recommend you to anyone!
Response from the Vendor on 09/12/2017

I can't say enough great things about HollyHedge. We were married there on Saturday and it was truly the best day ever. The entire estate is gorgeous, the food is unbelievably delicious, and the staff is remarkable. Michele, Key & Beth were outstanding and made our day perfect. I HIGHLY recommend HollyHedge for anyone looking for a venue! Thank you for making our dream wedding a reality, HollyHedge!
Response from the Vendor on 07/20/2017

HollyHedge was a dream come true. Being a bride that had the inability to make decisions, Key and Michelle were a godsend. So easy to work with and incredibly helpful. They were there through every single step of the process, to the day of, and even the day after!
HollyHedge is a fairytale location, every single area of the grounds is breathtaking. The food was amazing as well, we got so many compliments.
I can't recommend HollyHedge Estate enough to anyone who asks about it. Thank you so much for helping me make my wedding everything I could have dreamed it would be!

My husband and I got married here in April. All of our family and the other vendors we were worked with had a wonderful time. Both Key and Beth were excellent.
Response from the Vendor on 07/20/2017
Key and Beth loved being able to work with you on the day of the wedding. We're so pleased that everyone had a good time, and that we could help with that in some small way.
Holly Hedge Estate was so incredible to work with. They truly exceeded any expectations we had. The whole entire team really knows what they are doing and had the whole event down to a science. Michele was the first person we met, she gave us our tour and took us through menu planning steps. She was really genuine and informative. We worked with Key and Beth at our final meeting and they made us feel SO ready for the big day as it approached! For the rehearsal, Beth was able to rally us together and, again, reassured us for everything that would follow. On the day of the wedding, Key was my “go-to” person. She was there for anything we could possibly need that day! She even helped out with my bustling my complicated, large, dress which was very much appreciated. I cannot say enough good things about Holly Hedge. I look forward to returning for anniversaries to come!!

ns. You guys were fantastic to work with. Thanks for letting us be a small part of your big day.
HollyHedge is the best. Our entire wedding day felt so completely surreal - our guests kept saying it was like a movie wedding - all due to the quality of service as well as the beautiful grounds at HollyHedge. With its stonework and lush gardens, the estate provided a gorgeous backdrop to our October wedding; we almost felt like we were in the English countryside at times. We held both our ceremony and reception on-site, which really is the way to do it. The courtyard is so pretty and it's unbelievable how quickly and seamlessly the staff at HollyHedge can transition the area from ceremony to cocktail hour. During the wedding, we loved how guests could navigate from the courtyard to the Old Barn to the reception area to the fire pits -- providing plenty of changes in scenery and things to do. While our first tasting had been a little lackluster, the food at our wedding was delicious and in solid portion sizes. I still have dreams about the bacon-wrapped scallop and our best man hasn't stopped talking about his steak nearly two months later. In addition to having the ceremony and reception on-site, our guests occupied the attached inn -- making everything incredibly convenient and homey. Leading up to the wedding, we worked mostly with Michele and then Key managed our wedding day. They basically feel like family to us now. We are so happy we chose to have our wedding at HollyHedge Estate. Even as it was happening, we were in complete awe over how perfect everything turned out and how well the staff executed it all. We will always think of them fondly and cherish everything they did to make our wedding a beautiful affair.

Thank you so much. We are thrilled to know that your guests loved the experience. We like to think we produce Hollywood endings in which our couples live happily ever after, it's even better to hear that everyone thought the property and staff ...
looked the part as well;) We can't wait for you all to come back for the next celebration!
We had the most beautiful wedding day and we owe it all to Michele, Key and all the satff of HHE. Honestly I have been struggling to write this review because no words can describe how wonderful an experience it was to get married at HHE. Everything was flawless! From the moment I first saw HHE, I knew it was special.. it feels like a magical place out of a story book, it feels like a fairy god mother should come flyign out of the woods. The food was out standing, the staff was impeccable and so caring, and the ground you have to see for yourself. I highly recommend Holly Hedge Estate! Thank you to all of you for helping to make our big day so magical! Holly Hedge will forever have a special place in our hearts!
HollyHedge Estate is a very wonderful, unique venue - we give it the highest recommendation! The wedding coordinators, staff and innkeepers are very kind, helpful and professional. The location, ambience, service and food were all superb. We could not have asked for or imagined a more beautiful, expertly run, individualized wedding weekend. Thank you HollyHedge, for making my husband and me, our family and our friends feel so special on our day!
10/29/2016 - There are enough stars to give Holly Hedge the accolades they deserve for the absolutely beautiful wedding they helped us host for our daughter this past weekend. The atmosphere, service, food, etc. were top notch. I could go on and on. Thank you to Michele for her guidance from day one. And to Ki and Beth and all of the staff that day who were there to assist our every need. 10 stars.
We had our wedding on September 10,2016 and it was the most perfect day and exceeded our expectations! I highly recommend to anyone whom is looking for a wedding venue. The premises itself is breath taking and the greenery/landscaping is very well kept. This is a perfect landmark if looking for that type of wedding vibe. We can not thank the staff enough throughout our journey. Key and Michele were super easy to talk to, kind, generous, and really were so helpful through the planning process. During the reception, Key had to help adjust my dress bussel multiple times, no questions asked, she kicked off her heels and was on the floor making sure everything was perfect! There's little moments like that that make you really appreciate the generousity of the staff at Hollyhedge! Our day wound up being exceptionally warm, and with our ceremony outside, the staff made sure everyone was comfortable. They put out large fans and everyone stayed cool and hydrated in the barn until time for seating. We had our family stay at the inn portion of the grounds, and everyone had an enjoyable experience! Gabbi the innkeeper was accommodating to all our guests, and they have great breakfast! Thank you to Hollyhedge for making our day exceptionally perfect!

We could not have had a more perfect day! Coming from busy New York, we had known we wanted a more personal intimate wedding in a unique and romantic location! We could not have been more accurate in our choice with HollyHedge Estate. It was the perfect wedding venue.
We called HollyHedge Estate, from the moment we spoke about an engagement I had found this venue and put it into my wish list. Luckily fate was on our side and we got the perfect fall date for our wedding. We could not have been more pleased with the accommodations from bridal suite for getting ready to the grounds, the guest rooms and everything in between my husband and I did not want to leave and look forward to coming back to visit our new friends at the HollyHedge Estate. Whether you speak with Michelle or Key you are in the best of hands! I cannot say enough great things about these event coordinators! And when it comes to booking accommodations for your event Gabbi and her staff are the kindest and most diligent innkeepers we have had the pleasure of staying with! Overall you cannot go wrong with the HollyHedge Estate!
Response from the Vendor on 11/01/2016
We love that the estate offered a quiet, peaceful, romantic retreat from New York. It's pretty amazing how only 60 something miles can feel like a world away. Thanks so much for sharing your review. I know the entire event team, the inn team, a...
nd everyone else will be thrilled to hear that you all were so pleased with everything. Sometimes fate favors us, and we're so happy we got to work with such an awesome couple!
Just the absolute best!!! Our wedding was more beautiful than I could have ever imagined! Michele and Key made everything so incredibly easy and stress free and managed everyone of our requests. I wish I could do it all over again and will miss the amazing team there. If you are looking for a beautiful rustic venue with a superb service staff in the area honestly look no further!!
Response from the Vendor on 11/01/2016
Stress free and easy are not things people typically associate with wedding planning...but the fact that you all were able to celebrate and not worry about a thing is the best! That is what we aim for with every wedding. Thank you for sharing ...
the feedback. We are so glad that you all enjoyed the party and time with your family and friends without any stress:)
I'm not sure where to begin. First, we chose HollyHedge because it really hit every mark for us -- not only is it breathtakingly beautiful and rich in history, but the staff there is a perfect balance between being super friendly, calm and laid back but also incredibly organized, attentive and professional. They took great care of my husband, Mikey, and I, and I like to think we became fast friends. Coming from Manhattan, we decided we wanted a space that would make us and our guests feel like they had retreated from the outside world – we wanted it to feel private, peaceful and welcoming. HollyHedge offers both lush outdoor space but also lovely, rustic indoor space so your guests can enjoy it all. It also provided us with comfortable accommodations for the night of the wedding with our entire family and wedding party. We worked directly with Michele and Key for about a year and half before the big day. We love them so much. I can't say enough about them. They were honest with us every step of the way and helped us make all the difficult decisions (and were the most patient human beings on the planet when they would sit and watch my mom and I disagree and bicker during the anxious moments leading up to the event). Our wedding was perfect in every way. Our guests continue to bring up every little detail to this day. Thank you again for everything. We can't wait to come back and visit.

My husband and I got married at Holly Hedge in August and we cannot say enough wonderful things about the venue and the people who work there. From the very beginning with the tour, booking the venue, and multiple meetings throughout our engagement, we were beyond impressed. We worked mostly with Key and Michele and they were just wonderful throughout the entire process. They returned my emails within a day and were also very professional, yet friendly and warm. My whole family said how much we will miss them now that the big day is over. They were always patient and attentive and on the day of the wedding they went above and beyond to continually check in and make sure we had everything we needed. Their enthusiasm and excitement over our big day was so appreciated. During our reception, we had a family emergency and Michele was right there to help out and even followed up with us the following day to make sure my grandmother was okay.
The venue itself was breathtaking. It was intimate and stunning everywhere you went. Our guests still rave to us about how gorgeous and special everything was. The food and our cake were incredible! We received so many compliments. The appetizers and main course were delicious! We loved every bite. Brunch the following morning for our guests that stayed at the Inn was also very tasty.
If we could get married at Holly Hedge again tomorrow, we would do it in a heartbeat. It will forever hold a very special place in our hearts thanks to Key and Michele and everyone else working behind the scenes.
My daughter and son in law had their ceremony and reception at HH in August. They were looking for a rustic venue and it fit the bill perfectly. Can't say enough about how beautiful and magical this venue is. Very personal and intimate away from the everyday world but close to lots of attractions that out of town guests staying the weekend like to visit. Michele and Key were warm, professional and very helpful and responsive throughout the planning process. Nick and Key were kind, efficient and attentive on the day of. They took great care of the wedding party and kept the day running smoothly. They did a great job setting up and taking down everything we brought. The food was outstanding and all the servers were excellent. Baker did a wonderful job on our two cakes. The recommended vendors are excellent(Mark Bryan, Janis Nowlan, Andy Maheny, Daneene Jensen, The More We See, Stouts Transport). Our guests had a great time, the bride and groom were ecstatic, and my husband and I were so happy that they chose Holly Hedge! Highly Recommended!
Response from the Vendor on 08/25/2016
Thank you so much for sharing the positive review. We love when we hear from the mother of the bride that the property and event were beautiful and magical. That is awesome to hear! We are definitely going to share this with the whole team, as...
they will be thrilled to hear you and all your guests had a great time. Thanks again.
HollyHedge is gorgeous, the food is delicious, and the staff is the best you can imagine. In our search, we were looking for a unique, rustic, outdoor venue, with an equally appealing indoor option in the event of rain. HollyHedge exceeded all of our expectations, and I highly recommend the venue. It was absolutely perfect, and I can't imagine anyone would regret choosing HollyHedge.
We had our first look and photos by the pond, we got married outside on the courtyard, and most guests were inside for cocktail hour because it was unseasonably cold. We got, and continue to get, numerous compliments on the venue and how beautiful the estate is. The old barn is big and amazing, and a perfect place for photos. My description does not do it justice, just look at pictures. Our guests seemed to really enjoy the food, especially the grape truffle hor d'oeuvres.
I only have great things to say about the staff. They all made sure our guests were having a good time (which was most important to us), and made our wedding day flow incredibly well. The servers and bartenders are friendly, attentive, fun, and professional. They seamlessly set up cocktail hour, moved flowers to the reception, and put out the desserts before anyone even noticed what was going on. There were last minute changes in our guest count, and therefore seating chart, and the staff handled the whole situation for us, which was amazing. Michele, Key, and Nick have been wonderful to work with throughout the planning process, as well as on the wedding day. They respond to emails and calls very quickly, and they take time explaining everything to you. They make it very manageable to not have a separate wedding planner. Key and Nick were both there on the day of the wedding, and coordinated the whole set up, pictures, ceremony, reception, band, cake, etc. Everything was perfect. They were so fun and excited too, I can't imagine not having them there. I will definitely miss them all.
We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding day! The minute my husband and I visited Holly Hedge, we knew that was where we wanted to get married. The venue was so picturesque that were sold after the first ten minutes of the tour. Throughout the entire process, the staff was responsive, and accommodating. I cannot rave enough about the customer service-- Michele, Key, and Nick were just wonderful. We enjoyed working with them throughout the entire process, from the first meeting, to the tasting, to the actual day. A big thank you to everyone at Holly Hedge, for giving us such a beautiful (and relaxed) wedding day! A final note-- the on-site baker is absolutely fantastic! We had several guests ask where they could purchase a cake like ours! Thanks again!!

We had the most beautiful wedding at HollyHedge! Both my family and my husband's family felt SO taken care of by the friendly, accommodating, and professional HollyHedge staff. We worked closely with Michele and Key to plan our wedding for almost a year and a half, and the day could not have been more special. Hands down the most wonderful experience!!

2016 Blizzard Wedding
My groom and I could not be happier with our experience at HollyHedge Estate. The planning process with Key and Michele was everything I could have imagined. They were super helpful and always responsive to emails and calls with our questions. We were thrown a huge curve ball when the blizzard decided to strike the weekend of our wedding. We are beyond grateful for not only the professionalism of the staff at HollyHedge, but their efforts that were above and beyond once it was clear it wasn't going to be the run of the mill wedding. Our day was scheduled for 1/23/16 and when the roads were closed and a state of emergency was issued, despite all their plowing and preparations they had no choice but to postpone. Half our guests were snowed in with us and half were at local hotels. Everyone at HollyHedge rallied to calm our nerves and accommodate us, our friends, and family. Their general manager Tim was able to perform an intimate ceremony on 1/23/16 for us so we could still keep our date. On Sunday, we had our full ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. To say that it was a wedding to remember is an understatement. There is something to be said about the chips being down and how it all played out. I am confident that our wedding weekend was amazing because of HollyHedge and all their incredible staff. I could go on and on but really just want to say that they showed how much they cared about our happiness and I am sure that is just a testament of the character of all the people who work every day at HollyHedge to make every bride and groom's day as special as possible. Key, Michele, Tim, Gabby, Nick.. they are all wonderful and we are eternally grateful we were snowed in with HollyHedge!
Thank you!!!!

I can safely say that yours is a wedding that no one will ever forget...in the best of ways. We were so glad that we were able to help you all keep your date and make the most of a very challenging situation. It was such a pleasure to work wit...
h you all in spite of the epic blizzard. Hopefully the next time you visit, we'll have better weather and not have 2 feet of snow to contend with:) Congratulations again on your marriage, and thank you very much for sharing your experience with others.
Our wedding day at HollyHedge went off without a hitch and was - in a word - perfect. The venue is stunning - set on an old estate in the woods. It looks even better than it looks in the photos. We visited a dozen venues all around the Philly area and nothing came close to the combination of rustic beauty and elegance of HollyHedge. The day of staff were incredible - we didn't lift a finger all day long, they brought us drinks while we were preparing and even helped the bride re-steam her dress. The whole event flowed well - without a hitch (well except for us getting hitched of course!) The venue is a good value overall. However, they are not 100% upfront about what they up-charge for. The bride's family is Jewish and needed some Kosher meals but before we signed the contract, they never mentioned that these would cost more. There were several other occasions where we were caught off-guard by up-charges for items/services that weren't clearly marked - for example the table runner linens. At the time we chose our linens the additional cost was not mentioned - we noticed it later on our bill. We were happy with what we got in all the cases - but they should have been more clear with us.
Also beware that we (and some of our vendors as well) had significant challenges getting responses from HollyHedge staff. Calls and voicemails went unanswered. There were times when it took 2-3 weeks to receive responses to emails. Based on our experience, do not count on much interaction between your planned milestone meetings.
Overall, our wedding day was magical - the staff was amazing and our guests loved it. If you go with HollyHedge make sure to clarify up-charges and know that you'll have a hard time getting a hold of the staff during planning until about a week before the wedding.

Thank you so much for dropping a perfect bomb. We love it:) It makes us so happy to hear that the staff and property exceeded expectations. It is what we strive for with every event we do. I am sorry that there was any confusion on pricing an...
d upcharges for particular upgrades to our wedding package. We definitely take your comment to heart and will work hard to make sure no one else runs into similar issues. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your magical wedding.
From the first day we did the tour of Holly Hedge, we knew that this was our dream venue. Working with Key and Michele had been wonderful from the start! They were very responsive and always willing to help or provide suggestions to make our day perfect. When we went to our tasting, we could not believe how delicious the food was and were so excited for our big day! We chose to do the ceremony and reception on property and we were so glad we did. It took a lot of the stress off from moving venue to venue for both us and our guests. We were able to get there very early for the bridal suite and to start setting up, which made it very convenient. We have now been married a few weeks and we are STILL getting compliments on the food. Unfortunately we were so busy visiting guests that we only got to have a few bites of our dinners...but it was amazing! They were kind enough to also leave a box of Hors d'oeuvres in our fridge so we could enjoy them the next day. Not only was the food amazing but the venue itself is perfect for a rustic wedding. We also booked all rooms at the property so family and friends could stay as well - the breakfast the next morning was wonderful as well and it was nice to see all our family and friends again to share our first day as a married couple. We could not be more happy that we chose Holly Hedge and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to get married with a beautiful rustic feel. Thank you again for an amazing wedding day that we will remember forever!

Thanks so much for the wonderful review. We loved being able to host you and your guests. You all were such a fantastic joy for everyone to work with. We can't wait for the anniversary party when we get to do it again!
My husband and I were married on October 24th at Holly Hedge and it truly was beautiful. The staff was timely, attentive and always had a smile on their face. There were, however, a few small mishaps, hence the 4 star review.
My husband and I noticed that many of the vegetarian entrees came out 10-15 minutes after others at the same table had already been served. Additionally, having brought in our own wine and after dinner cordials we had decided to print wine and after dinner cordial lists, to be provided 2 per table. These were never placed on the guests' tables, so our guests were unaware of the wine selection (although bottles were displayed on the bar) and had entirely no idea that we were offering cordials with desert. The cost and frustration of creating these menus (I am technologically challenged) made this even more upsetting! Lastly, several of our guests' rooms in the main house were 85 degrees when they returned to turn in. Small issues, really, the wedding was overall an amazing experience, but not perfect!
As if this venue needs any more positive reviews! Our wedding was positively magical and in large part, thanks to the gorgeous setting at Holly Hedge. In all honesty, Michele was a large part of why we booked with them. Talking to her at the initial tour made us feel comfortable and in good hands. Their service was above and beyond. Our guests can't stop raving about the food, specifically the cocktail hour passed hors d'oeuvres. The honeymoon suite does smell like firewood, but if you are planning a "rustic" wedding, I don't know what else you would expect!! Comes with the territory. Anyway, we had the best time and my only complaint is that it was over before I knew it!
From the first day we walked into the office for our tour we knew this was the place. It was absolutely amazing. Everyone was on point and did not miss a beat. Both Michele and Key were amazing and I think that no one can match the level of professionalism, style, and excitement as these two have. I think they made things possible in our wedding that I thought on such short notice couldn't be done! Through email, and phone calls at all different times of the day was not just there job, they were trying to make our wedding something we would never forget, and they did just that. We got married in August and people still will say to us, can re-have your wedding. We both love hearing that from people because we know that they had fun as well.
The venue it self was amazing as well. In August you do not need a lot of flower because the court yard it self makes a whole different and something that other venues do not have. The rustic style was something we were looking for and I think we brought it! There is so much you can do at this place, if you are looking for ideas go through there wedding albums, and look at other peoples pictures from here. Also stop by early in the mornings and see what other people did and you will see what I am talking about. The fountain in the middle, was great and there was so much that can be done with it. So many places for your photography to take you and take photos. You won't be disappointed.
The food, OMG. I wish this place had a restaurant! The food was amazing, and at the tasting you will see what I mean. Between shrimp, mini chessesteaks, crab cakes, the main courses and the cake! I wasn't disappointed at all. OH also the cake CAN BE DIFFERENT LAYERS!!! We were both shocked and in heaven.
I cant stop talking about the staff, they are something else. Everyone is there to make sure you don't worry about anything. They know what they are doing and we believed in them and they were great. If you do not believe me read all these other reviews. And the price is just right. We looked at other venues and were shocked at the price. HollyHedge truly works with you can is 100% customizable. And there vendor list is great. They give you a list of other vendors that know the area and know all the good ideas!! To everyone at HollyHedge, THANK YOU. We are so please with our wedding and we can not wait to just come back and visit the place when we are in the area. Do not change anything, this secret gem is amazing and I wish everyone there the best!
Absolutely amazing! I could not think of a better place to get married. The venue is beautiful - rustic elegance all the way. Our ceremony took place in a stone courtyard and I entered through a beautiful old gate; it was like a fairytale. The reception space with the old English bar, stone wall, and chandeliers is perfect. The time leading up to our wedding was stressful for an anxious bride like me, but Michele and Key were amazing. They responded within 24 hours to every little tiny detail I thought of at random times of the night. They are experts and made me feel completely at ease. They organized every detail and their help and support as wedding planners was priceless. The event flowed seamlessly thanks to them! The food was incredible - the guests raved about it! And our cake, included in the package, came out absolutely perfectly. Loved the cake! The rooms at the inn were also beautiful, each different and including a delicious breakfast. The innkeepers were also very accommodating, expertly dealing with my family canceling and rebooking rooms daily. I would give HollyHedge 10 stars if I could!! Our wedding was perfect. :)
I just had my wedding at Holly Hedge and the day was absolutely perfect. The venue was absolutely gorgeous. Also the staff was incredibly helpful and attentive. While getting ready they made sure that my bridal party and I had everything we needed. During the cocktail hour one of the attendants brought a tray of each of the food options to my husband and I so we could eat. During the reception they made sure we were where we needed to be and made sure that we ate. I would not have changed one thing about the day. It was perfect
Our wedding was on a Friday in September 2014 and we still receive compliments on how wonderful everything was. Michele, Key and Liz helped us plan the wedding in 3 months!!! The date was open and we went for it. I never felt like I was bothering Michele, Key or Liz with my questions and to be honest, it probably helped make a lot of the decisions easier with only have 3 months to plan. The food was amazing - we have vegetarians, vegans, gluten-free and seafood allergies. The food was never a concern - it was only difficult to narrow down our selections!! I only wish we had been able to take pictures at Holly Hedge bef
