Manor House Event Center

the guests loved the slider sandwiches. I also had a bridal assistant who helped keep me on track. She always was there but was more in the shadows which was perfect.

ecome a reality. Everyone at the Manor House did their best to ensure our special day was fabulous! I HIGHLY recommend them!!!

ons that came up randomly - she was very responsive, professional, and very pleasant to work with. The entire staff on the day of our wedding was just amazing. All of our guests are still raving about how beautiful the gazebo and reception area was! Can't say enough wonderful things about our experience with the Manor House!

ur crazy questions. Our team that managed our event the day of was also great. They made sure everything was going well, and took care of the few additional requests we had. At the reception, all of the guests were pleased with the food and drinks they were served. We actually got several compliments on the meal we chose, which the Manor House caterer prepared. Overall, they were great and made our event run without any issues!

k with. She worked around our schedule and helped make sure everything went flawlessly for my wedding. Shannon even tracked down a vendor to make donut towers for my wedding and they turned out AMAZING!! Everyone raved about them!! My guests raved about how beautiful the venue was and really enjoyed the food.

g throughout the entire process and on our wedding day. We would definitely recommend the Manor House!

sly could not be more happy with how everything turned out! The Manor House was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend this venue for any occasion!!!

with whatever you needed. I couldn't have asked for a better venue.

dinner entree options, to walking down the aisle and dancing the night away. The staff here far exceeded our expectations. Shannon kept in touch regularly and made us feel confident in choosing them for our special day. The day of the event, we constantly had someone assisting us, making sure we had everything we needed, and always willing to lend a helping hand. If I had to go back and decide again, I would choose them in a heartbeat. (Ceremony in front of the Carriage House. Dinner & Reception inside the Carriage House 7.29.2017 7:30pm- midnight)

t enough time for the price but again it's very nice literally the staff is super hospitable. I had two day of coordinators, they were amazing! Our bartender was amazing. The servers were amazing. The food is delicious, our guests said it was the best food they had at a wedding. We splurged a little and served prime rib n stuffed chicken. It seriously was an amazing experience working with the Manor House :)

in the adjacent courtyard. Our guests loved it! If you are blessed and fortunate to work with Shannon, you will be extremely pleased. Shannon provides excellent service with a fun, warm demeanor. My husband and I were very impressed with Manor House and they helped to make our wedding day magical and very special!

much need for a lot of additional decorations. The beautiful fireplaces were turned on in both rooms and made such a welcoming and cozy addition. The tables looked beautiful with the elegant place settings and eggplant napkins they provided. STAFF: Shannon was our main contact person from start to finish. She was easy to work with through the planning process and always had an energetic, positive vibe. Shannon was in contact with all of our vendors, which took a lot of stress away from me. The other staff at the Manor House worked together to make our ceremony and reception absolutely perfect. From the moment we arrived for pictures, we had someone checking in on us every 15 minutes to see if we needed anything. They were attentive without being intrusive. I truly felt like I had nothing to worry about once I arrived. Everything went off without a hitch (and if it didn't, they were so good, that I had no idea!) My dad (who does not give away money easily) felt that every dollar was well spent. With the level of service provided before and during the wedding and reception, the staff truly earned the service charge applied to the event. FOOD: The plated meals were served quickly and were delicious. We had the filet mignon and chicken piccata. Our guests were very complimentary about both. As a request from the groom, we also had late night bites provided by the Manor House. We ordered cheeseburger sliders and a Skyline coney bar. The late night bites came out around 10:00 and both were AMAZING!! OVERALL: We decided to get married three months after getting engaged. I would never have imagined we would be able to pull off such a wonderful event in this short period of time. With the help of the Manor House (and my retired mom), the day was one I will remember for a lifetime. Besides the 50 degree temperature drop the day of the wedding, there was not a single thing I would change about the day! Thank you to Shannon and the rest of the Manor House staff for helping to make our day perfect! :)

m and it was gorgeous, I just loved the amount of natural light and the ceiling in that room. My reception was held in the Carolina room and it was perfect, my favorite part of the room was the bar and fireplace, very cozy and classy atmosphere. The cost was very reasonable for what you get here, the food is great, and the staff are very attentive to all your needs. During the planning process I worked with Shannon and she is fabulous! She was very helpful and genuinely excited and happy when helping me plan my vision for my wedding and reception, she really takes the time to communicate with you and she was a real pleasure to work with. Everything the day of went perfectly and everything was decorated beautifully and exactly the way I had imagined it. I would highly recommend the Manor House!

scuss. Our wedding day was perfect! It almost felt like we had a personal assistant the entire night. They appoint someone to make sure the night is going as planned and that your food and beer service is working smoothly. It was more than I ever expected out of a venue. But, it was perfect. We will never forget our wedding night because everything was beautiful and magical. I highly recommend Manor House!!!

y nice and easy to work with. She is very professional and an expert in planning the perfect wedding for our daughter. The wedding ceremony was held in the beautiful outdoor gazebo and gardens. It was picture perfect! We were blessed with great weather and the ceremony was lovely. The reception in the Carolina room was absolutely breath taking and beautiful! It was set up exactly as we had planned and was stunning with the centerpieces, chair covers and sashes! I can't say enough about the great service of all staff during the reception! Christine and Corrine our banquet coordinators were exceptional and went above and beyond to make things absolutely perfect. We all enjoyed the delicious food and drink and had the time of our lives! I highly recommend the Manor house and I personally want to thank Michelle and all the other staff for making it the best day of my daughters life!

d Manor House almost 2 years before our wedding date, which meant that we had plenty of time to drive Shannon and the team crazy with decision changes - all of which she handled with grace and genuine care. In addition to the beautiful ceremony and reception sites Manor House also hosts their own catering - and let me tell you that their food is phenomenal! Everyone I spoke with throughout the evening mentioned how great their food was. Shannon even worked with us to rent chairs and linens for the reception and she helped us lay out the most ideal room design for all of our guests, cake display, and gifts. Corrine was our bridal hostess for the day of the wedding and she did a superb job as well. She kept us in line and even helped keep up properly located with our agenda for the day. It was so wonderful to work with such a thoughtful staff and to host both our ceremony and reception in the same place. You pay a little more for the quality and convenience, but it was worth every penny for us.

putting everything together for us. Everyone we worked with was extremely helpful & nice. I cannot thank everyone at the Manor House enough for helping to make the day so perfect!

ostess Michaela was there to help as well. I don't think the night wouldn't have gone the way it did if it was for those two amazing young ladies. Then near the middle of the night things got a little confusing another lady approached my families table asking how everything was she said she was the manager and hoped the event was going well. This was the first we were told about her. Then thought the rest of the night I was see her come in and out taking pictures of people dancing and just watching. I get that weddings are a fun thing to experience but this isn't anyone you know and to take pictures of my family without asking disturbed me a little. Yes she said she was the manager but Christine was the manager for us and made that clear at the start, i would prefer people not to take pictures unless they are invited or ask if it would be ok. Just a little creepy. But back to the event it was beautiful the manor house knows how to have an elegant facility and for the most part be professional. Christine and Michaela from me and my family we would like to say thank you for making the night as great as it was. Love You both

est most caring people I've ever worked with. Naila and Shannon made everything a cinch. They were attentive and genuinely committed to our experience. They made sure every little detail was in place and it was perfect. THE WEDDING - We did not expect how gorgeous everything would look on the day of our wedding. When my bride and I saw the set-up, the staging, and the lighting we were honestly in awe... just wow. Thanks Manor Hours!!!

nd Shannon Wullenweber and they were absolutely fantastic. Things I had not thought of, they did. The venue was perfect. Particularly on the day of our wedding, Naila went above and beyond, and participated in every single part of the wedding, right down to hosting our guests. She exceeded our expectations and we will always be grateful for that! My husband and I had family members travel from around the globe and they could not stop talking about how gorgeous the Manor House was, and yet how personable and warm the staff was. We HIGHLY recommend getting married, 5 stars just is not enough!!!!

th precision and was there to help with anything at any minute...even a last minute shoe disaster with a bridesmaid. The grounds are beautiful and I can't wait to see our amazing pictures. When we walked in the room, my jaw almost hit the floor from how beautiful it was. I can't imagine a more amazing venue and staff than what we experienced at Manor House. THANK YOU for one of the most incredible days of our lives!

s or calls. The room was very beautiful the day of the wedding. We used both the Crystal Room and the Carriage House and both were fantastic. Our event manager was great, despite being new and not having history with the venue and our manager the night of the wedding was also great and super helpful. She constantly was asking me if I needed anything. I can't say enough about how awesome they were and how they made my day everything I hoped for. They were also very accommodating to last minute seating chart changes for the guests that didn't come.

and a lot of fun!

n is only one of many details necessary in hosting a memorable wedding...it's the people working for you (often behind the scenes) that pull it all together AND Manor House hit it out of the park! The MH team who attended to our evening were exceptionally friendly and attentive...our guests noticed and commented. The leader of this team was our sales manager, Shannon Wullenweber. Shannon is "top notch" in the industry and an absolute gem to work with. Thank you Manor House for helping us create a dream wedding!

or a lunch buffet, used the outdoor entrance space for a Baraat and Oonjal ceremony, the atrium for our traditional south Indian wedding, and the Georgian ballroom for our reception. They were great in helping us tailor the regular packages to our needs. On the day of they were very attentive and had multiple staff members helping us make sure everything went smoothly.

n the Manor House staff is what sets them apart from other venues. Truly extraordinary. There were no hiccups or bumps along the way and everything that was promised to us was delivered and then some thanks to our Sales Manager, Shannon, who was a dream to work with. She wanted my wedding day to be as perfect as I did and it showed in the care they took down to every last detail. As soon as the wedding party pulled up to the reception we were immediately greeted by the Banquet Manager, Naila, and ushered into a private room with Champagne and appetizers. Her poise and professionalism throughout the night was exceptional and she set the tone for the entire evening. We were also assigned a captain, Christine, who took care of us the entire evening, and it was like having a "right hand man" to take care of whatever we needed. The owners, Bill and Kathy, are wonderful people and they really know what they are doing. Our reception was magical and the entire staff went above and beyond to make us feel like royalty for a night. I couldn't ask for a better experience.

s. I ran into her yelling at these kids, these kids are here to have a job they were serving us perfectly fine and for some reason they were getting yelled at for not bussing the tables. Even though from what I could see the tables are fine if I can remember my servers name I would personally thank him he made my night and he was a very kind and generous young man . Thank you to all the Manor House servers and everything you guys do for us the guest.

d that up to the nines!! I was so detail oriented on EVERYTHING I wanted for my wedding that after meeting the Manor House staff I knew I was in good hands. I think every wedding is special but mine felt magical. We had a lot of out-of-town guests and they raved the next morning about how lovely they thought the reception site was. I can't wait to plan a milestone wedding anniversary party there!!

essional and made promises that she did not keep. At one point, I tried to get my money back and start over with a different venue. I am so glad that I did not because for the rehearsal and wedding, Nila took care of us and she was absolutely phenomenal! She took care of everything for us and was very professional. The Manor House is a beautiful venue, with gorgeous landscape and great food! As long as you don't work with Linda, it will be the perfect venue for you!

e has such a classy feel to it, with so many beautiful areas for photographing. We originally worked with Anna, who eventually left Manor House. We were then matched with Shannon, and we were so glad to be able to work with her. She has such a great wedding planning background and brought up topics that we didn't even think of. Shannon was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, and would answer my emails within minutes every time I had a revision or question. On the day of the wedding, our room (The Crystal Ballroom) was absolutely gorgeous with all of the details and the lighting that Shannon helped us pick out. The food was so delicious, and all of the details were taken care of by their wonderful staff. We are so glad that we chose Manor House for the high quality, classiness, and incredible management. It was a great feeling to hand over all of our hard work leading up to the wedding, and have Manor House run the show for us. Thank you for making our wedding such a beautiful and memorable event!

My only complaint is that Manor House does run a very strict timeline, and I had not realized it at the time, but as we booked a Friday wedding, we did not have a lot of time for photos before it got dark. Everything else was exceptional- the food was great, the staff was extremely helpful, and my Banquet Manager, Nick, truly saved my wedding when my cake did not arrive (I didn't even realize it because I was so involved in photos and keeping the Wedding Party on task). When Nick realized the cake had not arrived he talked to me, then called the bakery himself and got them to bring it (the bakery had forgotten my cake!!!) in time for the cake cutting. I would absolutely recommend Manor House to anyone, although if you are planning a Fall Wedding in the evening I would advise doing your photos at a different location beforehand so you can get all the pictures you want. Despite time allocation for photos I could not be more pleased with Manor House as Nick literally saved my wedding by making sure the bakery delivered the cake.

had everything we needed. They helped to make my dream wedding reality.

inens, silverware, food, alcohol, and day-of coordinator are all included in the food and beverage cost. I would say the cost is reasonable overall, especially for a gorgeous wedding. The food is extremely good and very high quality. We only had a couple of communication hiccups, but overall, everything was perfect. Manor House helped make my day PERFECT, and I will cherish it even more because of their hard work.

n at the same location. Even other venues we visited had heard of the Manor House and had very positive things to say about the place. Once we checked it out, we knew this was the place for us. Linda was our coordinator, and she was extremely helpful and made everything very easy for me, especially since I was planning from out of town. This venue does everything for you, like providing the food, drinks, decorations, and staff. They coordinate with all of your vendors for you in terms of set up/drop off times. They provide several assistants throughout your wedding night so that you really don’t have to worry about the smaller details (family/bridal party lining up for ceremony, getting everyone over to the reception hall, set up, clean up). They really have thought of everything! The venue is absolutely gorgeous, both the outside scenery for photos as well as parts inside. We chose to have our ceremony at the Carriage House and our reception was in one of the reception halls. We have seen a few preview photos from our photographer, and the scenery is really ideal for photos. Even if the weather is bad, there are several places indoors or under an awning that work as well. The food was excellent, and they have a variety of options to choose from. All staff was professional and extremely helpful. Although it is on the pricier end for a venue in Ohio, I truly think it was worth every penny.

hat was a great area for photographs. The food was fantastic, and I was happy that Linda let me come to the corporate tasting event 3 1/2 months before the wedding when I missed the wedding tasting event which was held the week before we booked. The staff was great on the evening of the reception - service at the head and reserved tables was very attentive. The only complaint that we had was that they did not set up the tables as we had outlined and confirmed with Linda the day before. They had odd numbers at some of the tables (9 and even 11) when all tables were supposed to seat 8 with the exception of 3 reserved family tables. My parents' table wasn't set up properly which caused my mom a bit of stress when the staff was resistant to rearrange it to the way it was supposed to be as guests were arriving. Their diagram was so off that it was like they had our layout mixed up with someone else's. Fortunately, they did acquiesce after my mom and the best man insisted, and it was fine. All of the guests loved the food and the facility - many saying that it was the best wedding food that they had eve had.

the Ball Room..every detail was addressed. Shannon was so professional and easy to work with...she was was my lifeline. We couldn't be more pleased with our experience.

ur desire to have our wedding and reception in the same location, and with beautiful grounds for photos. My only multi-point complaint – our sales person told us we would not have any conflicts with another wedding/reception…this happened TWICE within an hour. First, when I was trying to leave my bridal suite, my path to exit was blocked by the food cases for the dinner in the reception that was taking place directly across from my bridal suite. Second, when I tried to have my first glance, there was another bridal party that had intruded in our rented portion of the venue. It almost ruined a very special moment. Third, when we finished our ceremony in the atrium, there were groups of guests walking through the atrium during our pictures. I was so distracted during all of the interruptions, and very upset that I was PROMISED this wouldn’t happen…my pictures still turned out ok, but I had to constantly chase people down from the Manor house to try to re-direct the guests from a different wedding. I was very upset that there was not more staff to help maintain and direct the other weddings/receptions. While I understand this is a multi-event center, I was also promised that my biggest fear of having other bridal parties intrude in our rented space would not happen and it did. With all that said, I would recommend this event center with caution. Know that you will not have what is promised when they say you will have complete privacy. The food is fantastic, and the food/beverage service is perfect.

a wedding in a different State. Michelle helped to make the whole planning process easy and stress free. We told her what we wanted and she took care of making sure everything was perfect.The venue was stunning inside and outside. We took all of our pictures on the Manor House grounds and the setting was beautiful. Michelle answered all of our questions and emails almost immediately! Our guests keep talking about how wonderful the entire wedding was how elegant the Manor House was. The food was delicious!!. The Manor House organized for us to have a Skyline Buffet set up late in the night for a late night bite for our guests. It was a big hit! I cannot say one bad thing about the Manor House.

ce is well kept.

helpful and organized. They made sure my new husband and I were taken care of the whole night, along with the bridal party. Michelle was wonderful. She guided us step by step and made sure everything was perfect for our special day.

was exactly what I envisioned for my wedding! I was very pleased with the food and service. There were a few glitches with miscommunication, but overall the staff worked well in putting together a memorable event. If you go in knowing what you want, the staff will make it come together beautifully in a professional manner.

s, etc. - very very convenient!). There are many different rooms and GREAT outdoor locations. I could not have been less stressed on our wedding day! They took care of everything and not a single thing went wrong. We could not have been happier! I worked with Michelle and she is wonderful! I would DEFINITELY recommend The Manor House!

l night long. She made sure everything ran smoothly, and also referred me to many great people. the food was awesome!!!! the drinks were awesome!! and the carriage house ROCKED. i highly reccomend getting married and having your reception there, for a woodsy, fallish, romantic wedding. Thanks MICHELLE!!!

at a lot of venues in the Cincinnati area and I really feel we made the right choice for the elegant event we wanted.

space. We wouldn't have had our wedding reception anywhere else.

ocess and on the actual wedding day. The Manor House took great care of us and helped create a wonderful atmosphere and experience for us and our guests. Our reception was held in the Magnolia Room and it was amazing (we highly recommend it). The grounds were beautiful and perfect for pictures as well. They offer great options for food and beverages, and we received many compliments about the food at our reception from our guests. The Manor House even offers a complimentary food tasting during the planning process where you get to taste and try out all of the different food and drink options while mingling with other engaged couples that are also using the Manor House throughout the year. It was very fun and a great way to not only pick different options, but to also enjoy the planning process. We couldn't have asked for a better experience or venue for our wedding reception, and we would highly recommend the Manor House in Mason, OH for anyone looking for a great venue and staff to make your reception fun, memorable, and stress-free.

y rep were helpful and assured me all would go well and it did! We had a brunch wedding and everything was delicious! The venue and grounds were great for photos! We have gotten many compliments and had a great wedding experience at the manor house.

simply. They were very willing to work with me and my schedule and the weekend of the wedding went flawlessly. The staff set out our decorations exactly how we wanted them to, and they even allowed us to arrive early to do our own flowers. Everything in the Carriage House matched my Rustic Winter wedding and it was so beautiful with snow outside! The environment inside was so warm and cozy and just the love of our special day was so apparent in everything. We were able to use the Coach Room as our ceremony site and dance area and then the Carriage Room for our dinner reception. The food was delicious (I received many compliments following the wedding about how good the food was)! Overall, I loved the Carriage House for my Rustic Winter Wedding.

was perfect! Everyone was courteous. My reception started at 8:00 so It was very important to me that my guests were fed immediately. I stressed this to the Manor House and they were on top of it the entire night! I would recommend the Manor House to any brides who are looking for a stress free environment for their wedding.

eception was in the Augusta Room with its crystal chandeliers, large room and bar, and with the black and white linens and flowers it was GORGEOUS! We had room for a candy buffet and live photo booth too. But the most important part of the wedding is your FOOD. It was FANTASTIC! We had 84 Filet Mignon and almost every guest raved about their dinners. The Portabella Chicken was tender and wonderful too! The service was also excellent and professional. The only negative I can think of was how quickly they kept removing wedding cake from the guest plates. Some people would be dancing or taking photos and return to their table where their uneaten cake was already removed. All in all, it was a perfect day! Beautiful setting, wonderful food and drinks, music and dancing, and great service! So many people came up to me to say how great the food was and that they thought this was the best wedding they had been to in a long time. Wedding: 08/03/2013

ly cooperative in the beginning for a traditional Indian wedding, including accommodating two elephants! However, what happened the DAY BEFORE the wedding ruined my whole experience with Manor House. I got a call the day before the wedding (i guess when Michelle realized it was definitely going to rain) that the courtyard was not an actual rain site even though she made no mention of that last year when she negotiated the contract. I rushed over there to figure out some solution practically in tears and NOT ONCE did anybody at Manor House apologize for all the confusion and stress. In fact, every single solution included paying several thousand more to make the wedding happen. In the end, my wedding planner convinced me that the courtyard would be fine and it would not rain at my wedding. She was right. The rain stopped and the courtyard turned out quite lovely. Nayla at Manor House was the one who took care of me on my wedding day and I cannot speak more highly of her. Thank you Nayla and Nidhi (my wedding planner) for saving the day! Also, there were several iPhones and purses that went missing and were never found despite Manor House requiring and charging for a security guard two days before the wedding.

ond in making our day flawless. She coordinated with all of our vendors to ensure that everything flowed well throughout the night. The bartender and staff were all excellent, too. Everyone said the food was the best buffet food they had ever had and we agree with that. Their house wines are also good. The Manor House took care of even the smallest of details just as we had discussed without any errors and anything we asked for the night of the wedding, they immediately provided. I would highly recommend this venue.

xactly what we were looking for. We booked with the Manor House nearly two years before our actual wedding but not one detail was forgotten throughout that time. Special thank you to our planning coordinator Anna! She was available via email at all hours of night and helped think of all the details to make our day perfect! Our guest will never forget the Skyline Chili bar you suggested!! All in all, we’d highly recommend the Manor House and their entire staff to any bride-to-be. Amazing space, amazing food and amazing people to work with!

helpful through-out the whole planning process and all the up until the last song of the evening! They executed everything with perfection!! If you are looking for the best place to have your wedding in Mason,OH.... look no further :)

cation, as well as appreciation about not having a long drive between ceremony and reception. The one downside was that it was almost the hottest day of the year, so in our bridal dressing room we definitely needed a fan. I would imagine this is probably a pretty common problem, and they would keep one on site for this purpose, but they don't. So I would recommend bringing a fan just in case to future brides for any summer wedding. The reception room itself was appropriately ventilated. Since we weren't able to eat much at our wedding, the tasting was amazing. We got to sample literally everything on the menu and then try to pare it down to what we would actually serve. Great to work with, very professional.

r had. I wish I could do it all over again!

answering questions.

r a better place to have our wedding at!!

that i could complain about! Im lucky i guess :] Such a great and stress free experience. The place is amazing and the food is wonderful! We had a great experience at the Manor House!!! I would recommend it!

great, and ensured that we had a great event. One of the downsides is that you have to be very explicit with them about certain things. For example, we brought some of our own votive candles (which we had rented) for centerpieces, and they ended up getting thrown away by the Manor House staff at the end of the night. Also, we had lots of extra cake and deserts, and that disappeared. We were hoping to keep it and freeze portions for later, but we ended up with very little leftovers, due to Manor House staff misplacing it/throwing it away. They book dates at least a year in advance for Friday/Saturday dates during wedding season.

told the best beef tenderloin to many guests. Wonderful, wonderful venue. Every concern that arose (not too many) was addressed quickly and professionally by the staff and John. Thank you!

accommodating. We worked with Linda who was great. She took on our wedding seamlessly. Also, on the day of the wedding, the entire staff made all of our wedding party feel at ease. The guests all enjoyed the food (especially the carved roast beef)- it was exactly what we had hoped for. During the planning process, it was very easy to work with the Manor House. There was ample time to review the details and they made sure that we were pleased with the setup of everything. The menu tasting allowed us to taste and choose exactly what we wanted for our menu- and to see a variety of sample table setups. The food was just as we remembered it from the tasting. The Atrium was the setting for our ceremony, our guests loved it. We were in the Carolina Room for our reception, our guests appreciated the room proximity. Our guests stayed at two of the nearby hotels; this made for easy transportation with Polly the Trolley. From the onset of our interactions with the Manor House, to the menu tasting, to the day of the wedding, we were thoroughly pleased. We considered other similar venues, but the grounds and the customer service made Manor House stand out.

of all night ...along with my mother father and groom. The staff was wonderful... The gardens beautiful and it all made my dream wedding a reality. I recommend the manor house 100%!!!!

y gorgeous on site - perfect for beautiful wedding pictures. The Atrium was the perfect backdrop for our ceremony and I am still getting compliments to this day about the beauty of our wedding. The only downside was not being able to be in our space as long as I would have wished for the day, specifically to use our room to get ready in rather than having to get ready at a local hotel. Overall, the serving staff and room managers made my decision to use the Manor House as our ceremony and reception space a good one.

ony to the reception. I worked with Michelle who was extremely helpful and nice. She always got back to me the same day with answers to my questions and really made the process easy. The day of went beautifully, the food was great and everyone had a wonderful time!

ontact did everything she could, but her workload is simply too big to meet basic needs.

ide, so wasn't exactly sure what to expect based on my parents' recommendations. Well, my mom clearly has good taste, because the Manor House is breathtaking. It may be a traditional wedding venue, BUT it is high-end and you can tell. Nice attention to detail--the beautiful fireplace and bar, chandeliers, etc. The sales staff--I worked with Michelle throughout my entire process--Michelle is so nice and helpful, and very responsive via email. She's great. I got married in a slow month, so she was able to work with me to get me some additional time for pictures and was able to meet me before our rehearsal to help get it all set up. Ceremony--I got married in the Atrium, and used Steve Means as our minister. He routinely does weddings at the Manor House, and seriously could not be nicer (and responsive via email). He was great, and we got lots of compliments on how powerful of a speaker he was. The atrium is absolutely breathtaking for the ceremony. When you come for a visit, as I did, and just mosey through, or see the atrium your Manor House tasting, you don't get the full feel of the actual ceremony. However, once the chairs are filled, the flowers are in place, and the sun starts to set, getting married in front of the fountain--it's absolutely stunning. Seriously. Gorgeous. I got a lot of compliments as to the beauty of the Atrium. Finally, the grounds of the Manor House are just designed for beautiful pictures--a gazebo, a bridge over water, etc. Yeah, it's probably been done before a million times, but not for YOUR wedding! I love my pics...and they were done in March, without any flowers on the grounds! It could only be prettier in the summer! I think the price is fair for the elegant location and service. I would absolutely recommend it. I have only seen a preview of my pictures so far, and they are just beautiful. Oh, I should also add that I got compliments on the great food as well. I know some critiqued that it wasn't as good as the tasting--our food came out excellent! Good job, Manor House!
