Melhorn Manor

iful. I spent a lot of time over the phone with Jess as she helped me map out our day. She was always extremely helpful and accommodating no matter how many times I reached with endless questions. Jess even helped us solve our final big wedding stressor- choosing a signature cocktail drink. After failing to pick something while bar-hopping, Jess offered to whip up a few options during our table meeting, and made the perfect drink for us! On the day of our wedding, Jess and Allory were present and available to oversee our event and help us with anything we needed. They helped us transform their gorgeous property into the wedding of our dreams. We often tell people how grateful we are that we booked with Melhorn. Jess and Allory care deeply about their venue and their weddings, and it shows through in their dedication and care. Thank you again! We couldn't be happier!

ces were people could socialize, including the lower barn, lawn, and pavement where we could play yard games. The Melhorns were incredibly helpful and kind in the planning and preparing process. They were very prompt in replying to my questions, and could anticipate possible needs or issues. They were very professional and knowledgeable, and the virutal system they use for the seating arrangment made it very easy for me to plan where people would sit. We would highly recommend having your event at Melhorn Manor :)

this vendor to anyone. Our wedding day went smoothly because of all their help and support.

operty that you can utilize for the ceremony, reception, cocktail hour, first look, photos, etc. it's just perfect. Allory and Jess are easy to work with and do everything in their power to make sure that their couples are taken care of and have their dream wedding. They truly go above and beyond. We couldn't imagine having our wedding anywhere else.

they walked us through every step and made what can be stressful wedding planning so much better! The venue is perfect and has every option you could want. Indoor and outdoor ceremony locations, indoor or outdoor cocktail hour spaces, and a beautiful reception area! You wouldn't regret this venue in the slightest! The easiest 5/5 rating!

ping, the grass wasn't even soggy! I was able to have my outdoor ceremony like I have always envisioned! The entire flow of the wedding from outdoor ceremony, to cocktail hour in the stables, to reception in the barn just worked so well. Melhorn was a barn turned into a venue. Its a venue with history and character, different from a typical venue. Most of my guests had never seen a venue like it. The owners Jess and Allory were so helpful throughout the entire process and were very attentive and involved the day of. Days before, we found out that the velvet napkins I had selected with one of my vendors were no longer available. Once Jess found out, she went out of her way and tried so hard to find another vendor to supply velvet napkins to help complete the look I was going for! I couldn't recommend Melhorn Manor enough, book your next event now!

off of Main Street in Mount Joy, but as soon as you drive in, it feels like you are in a totally different place. The main barn is a gorgeous finished space that doesn’t feel like a barn, and the tobacco barn is a great indoor, temperature controlled space for a ceremony. The bridal suite was perfect for getting ready, so pretty and full of life. The grooms space is a great pre wedding hang out space. The aesthetics and details are incredible, and my pictures are made all the better with the beautiful backdrop Melhorn Manor provided. But above all, the owners are the biggest reason to use this venue. Allory and Jess were super responsive, attentive and flexible. We had to adjust our event a few times due to Covid and in the end we had a fantastic day with lots of support and every detail exactly as we’d planned. Covid interfered with our dream wedding day, but Allory and Jess helped us got still have a lovely day with our family. We will be forever grateful for their hospitality and willingness to work with us to make our day just perfect.

ng, and trust truly amazing people. They are totally focused on you and your special day and details and ensure that everything runs smoothly. I truly just cannot recommend having your wedding here enough. I promise you won’t regret it! I wish everyday I could relive our wedding day…heck I would even want to live at Melhorn! 😂

, Jessica and Allory could not have been more accommodating. Our planning meeting with them made us feel so at ease. We knew instantly that we were in good hands. They both worked very hard to make sure we had the wedding day we truly wanted. Jessica and Allory took the time to know us on a personal level. That made all the difference on our wedding day. Their venue is absolutely stunning. We fell in love with the buildings/grounds on our very first visit. The barns are beautiful with ample space and there are indoor/outdoor options for the ceremony.  The options they provided for the florals and catering were also exceptional. We had an intimate wedding with much attention to detail. Jessica and Allory delivered…BIG TIME! We highly recommend booking Melhorn Manor for the wedding of your dreams!!!

u feel at ease. They are extremely good at keeping communication going, especially when regulations were changing weekly. I would never even think of redoing our wedding any differently. The first time we walked into the venue was for another wedding and from that day on, I knew our wedding was going to be held there... before we even got engaged. We didn't even tour any other venues because of how breathtaking the barns are, nothing would compare. I could never thank Jess and Allory enough for all they did to make our day so perfect!

throughout our entire planning process. They had a great list of caterers to choose from plus wonderful vendor recommendations for florists, DJ, coordinators, and more. The price of Melhorn included many features other venues didn't offer such as tables, chairs, setup and tear down, parking attendants, staff, extra time, and more. They also will handle linens and bar services if needed. We were thrilled with our day and thankful for the air conditioned barns as we had an unusually hot day for May. If we could have our wedding on repeat there, we would!

we set foot and had our one on one tour, we had a gut feeling that this was where we were supposed to get married. They took so much time explaining everything to us and giving us an amazing tour! They are a business, but you can tell this means more to them! They put their heart and soul into this business and they have an amazing way of really make you feel like you are their family and they would do anything for us to make our day perfect, and boy they did for sure! And then the pandemic happened which threw a wrench into our planning, but having Jess and Allory to lean on literally saved us! They were literally a text or phone call away- any time of the day- they were there for us answering our questions and helping us navigate our wedding day and helping coordinate with all the vendors as well! They sent out so many updates to all the couples keeping them updated on guidelines and new rules that needed to be followed and what the next steps were- they were so thorough. And then five days before our wedding, we didn’t hear from our bartending service and other weddings/couples were having issues with this company. Jess and Allory heard about the situation and already made calls and had their own staff lined up to work our wedding, and did all of this on their own so we didn’t have to stress about it! No other venue would do that for you!!! They got all the supplies and mixers, they literally SAVED the day! Jess was actually bartending 9 months pregnant helping out- I’m telling you this couple is AMAZING and will do whatever it takes to make our wedding day run smoothly and the best for us and our guests! EVERYONE at our wedding said they had such an amazing time! Greg and I owe a lot of that to Jess and Allory! We are so thankful for all of your help, support and guidance planning our best day ever! And we are so lucky to have gained a new friendship! <3

d having them around on our wedding day/night. They made sure we were well taken care of and that it was the wedding we had hoped for. Not only was the staff great, but so was the venue itself. We had access to the entire property all day. Every section of it is breathtaking. We highly recommend choosing Melhorn Manor!

r events. Working with Allory and Jess was a pleasure, they are so communicative and are very professional. Coming from Jersey, they were able to give us great vendor recommendations from their network which made booking so easy. We had such a great and safe wedding and their venue is beautiful and well maintained. They have the wow factor as soon as you step upstairs for their reception with those gorgeous chandeliers. Their getting ready space for the bride and groom was also great! Thank you Allory and Jess!

photographer put us in contact with Melhorn Manor and to our surprise they had an opening on our original wedding date and they were willing to book us last minute! They also helped us get a new caterer last minute and ultimately re-plan an entire wedding in 2 weeks. Needless to say our wedding day turned out just as beautiful and perfect as if I spent a year planning it. Allory and Jess are so kind and accommodating they truly are in the business to see love flourish and make memories for couples that will last a life time. I cannot say enough great things about not only the owners but also the beautiful venue.

; Jess and Allory are very kind and understanding people. They will try their best give you the wedding that you dreamed of and more!

anor was the first venue we looked at, and we fell in love. Jessica and Allory were warm and welcoming from the first day we met them. Throughout the process they went above and beyond to cater to our needs. Through quarantine, covid restrictions, all the way to the day of. They were kind, caring, and answered any/every question we had. The venue...my goodness, it speaks for itself. We had our ceremony in the courtyard, then went to indoor/outdoor cocktail hour, then reception in the barn. It was perfect. Pictures were incredible as they have so much space on the property. I could go on and on, but i'll just say that Jessica and Allory opened up their venue to us and made us feel right at home. It was the best day ever, and we have Melhorn Manor to thank for it!

d us pick our new date, follow cdc guidelines and make all of our friends and family feel safe. I would do it all over again just to work with Jess and allory again. This venue is a beauty so many spaces to plan and create it your own. We are not country people but we made the venue very vintage boho. I loved it!!

u to us and the Venue itself is just absolutely amazing! We got so many compliments on the venue! They were also very responsive which is a huge thing when you are trying to plan a wedding during a pandemic! They were there to help with whatever they possibly could!

f you pick Melhorn Manor as your wedding venue, you can guarantee a stress free rehearsal and wedding day!

I’m sad it’s all over!

te with the covid updates and helped work with my husband and I to make our wedding day perfect! I 100% recommend Melhorn Manor for your wedding!!

g owners of such a wonderful business. They made us feel like the most important couple on earth! The venue itself is stunning and I couldn’t have found a more perfect place to say I do. I would rate them a million stars but unfortunately it only lets me rate them 5 out of 5. I highly recommend this venue!

exts, calls, and emails, they were quick to get back to us with answers to any questions we may have had...and we certainly had a lot of them! They were so patient in working with us to make sure our day was exactly what we had imagined! We were consistently welcomed back to take another tour or show family members our future reception location, whenever we asked! Although Melhorn Manor is absolutely BEAUTIFUL on its own, the experience of working with Allory and Jess was one that we couldn't find anywhere else. We felt like our needs and wants were truly listened to. They made our reception run seamlessly, and we could not have been happier with how everything turned out! They made our vision of a Christmas wedding absolutely perfect. From the beautiful Christmas decorations, to the many lights both in- and outside the venue, it was exactly what we were looking for. We even lucked out with a 60-degree day, and they quickly got the yard games out for us, as I had requested. Our guests loved spending some time outside during Cocktail Hour, while playing some Cornhole and other games. No matter what season your wedding is, you are bound to have an amazing experience and beautiful scenery at Melhorn Manor. The bridal suite and man cave are sure to please as well! The boys loved having two TVs and plenty of games to occupy their time downstairs. The girls loved the rustic vibe of the bridal suite, and it was the perfect space for getting ready for my special day! Overall, our experience at Melhorn Manor is one that we will continue to tell people about for the rest of our lives. If you are looking for a rustic, classy, and lovely wedding venue, this is the place. We could not have better things to say about it!

into the wedding day experience. Even though they aren't formal wedding coordinators, they help out on the day of with things like parking and helping the groom/bride into the ceremony. Above all else, their communication is spectacular. When you're planning a wedding there are so many things to keep track of, so having venue hosts that are easy to communicate with is SO important. Jess and Allory were quick to reply to texts and made sure to communicate all important details up front. Truly a couple who cares about the experience of every couple and guest who attend. Thanks again Allory and Jess!

zing! They thought if things I never would have thought of! And after our ceremony, Jessica even used a display we had to make our sweetheart table stick out. I truly cannot put into words how blessed we feel to have been able to work with them and to have had our wedding At Melhorn Manor, which is stunning! Seriously, every inch of the property is gorgeous!! My husband and I talk about just throwing a huge party so we can hold another event at Melhorn!

the next day and scheduled an appointment. My fiancé and I fell in love with the venue and felt even more comfortable with it after meeting the owners - Jess and Allory. They went out of their way to show us the venue, tell us about its history, and how couples have used it in the past. Allory and Jess were fun, helpful, and honest. They sold us on the venue 5 months ago, and we just had our wedding at Melhorn last night. Jess and Allory were fantastic hosts, came up to us throughout the night to check in, and were there to answer any questions. We had the most amazing experience. Our wedding was beautiful, our guests raved over the venue’s natural beauty, and we danced the night away. Melhorn Manor gave us our dream wedding at a more affordable cost than so many other venues in the area. Thank you, Jess and Allory!

rything we needed for our day. We were able to have peace of mind in knowing that they were going to do everything they could to make our day go smoothly. I would highly recommend Melhorn Manor for any event.

t wedding! we had a family health issue which made us have to move the date up, and they understood and were very supportive in what we were going through and made sure that whatever we needed help with they were there for us. the outside garden was beautiful and a perfect area for pictures. the bridal rooms are awesome and have all the things that you need to get ready and enjoy the time your there before the wedding!

felt like a nervous and neurotic bride, Jessica and Allory made sure to make me feel the opposite. If you want rustic meets elegant, Melhorn Manor is the place. What put Melhorn Manor above all other venues we looked at were Jessica and Allory. We did not feel like just another couple paying to get married at a location, but, that we were a priority and they were invested in our day as much as we were. Everything was wonderful and we highly recommend picking Melhorn for your special day. You will not be disappointed.

ing ensuring that we had everything we needed! Melhorn is top notch in comparison to other barns because of the space, areas for getting ready, accessibility, and climate control! Not many barn venues can offer what they have.

mless. They have thought of every detail and have great recommendations. They are so quick to respond and are available for every question. The personalized care and professionalism is top notch! I would recommend Melhorn to every bride!

nt locations for your ceremony and reception so even if there is bad weather you can still have two spereate areas for each one and they are all beautiful. That really helps to give you peace of mind while planning your big day. Jess and Allory were also amazing from start to finish. They are so kind, accommodating, flexiable and had great communication throughout the whole process. They answered any and all of our questions whenever we had them and really helped bring everything together. All in all we couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding day. It really was a dream come true and that wouldn't have been possible without Jess, Allory and their beautiful wedding venue.

s. The owners will do whatever they can to make sure your day is exactly as you dreamed. I cannot imagine my wedding anywhere else. I am so greatful for all that they did and for the amazing wedding I was able to have here at Melhorn Manor! Pick this venue and you will have no regrets!

to respond, and willing to go above and beyond to make sure that we had all the necessary information, and all of our questions answered. When we did get back to the USA a month before the wedding and were able to actually go to Melhorn Manor and meet Allory and Jess in person, we continued to be impressed. They are so personable, and it is clear that they honestly want to make each couple’s wedding day absolutely amazing. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous; all of our guests commented on that as well! It is stylish, spacious, clean, and is kept up extremely well. The location of the venue is great, too. It is in a nice quiet area, but has convenience stores, grocery stores, etc. nearby for any last-minute needs. It also has plenty of parking. Allory and Jess helped us with everything from figuring out the layout of the reception and the general timing plan of our wedding day, to on the wedding day itself, making sure that things ran perfectly smoothly—even offering to take care of big and small details here and there, like helping with the set up of the ceremony location on their property that we chose (there are several options!), making sure our guest book was moved from one place to the next as guests moved from cocktail hour to the actual reception, totally facilitating the sparkler sendoff, and Jess just checking on me (the bride) throughout the day to make sure I was doing ok. I felt so much less stress on the wedding day than I thought I would, all because of the help they gave with these details and many more. I didn’t have to be worrying about things running perfectly smoothly, because they took care of it! Like we said, we can’t say enough good things about Allory and Jess and Melhorn Manor. The way our process went with them, from beginning to end, was wonderful!

enue turns out after each update. The owners are an amazing couple that really take pride in their work and are very good to their customers. They are always happy to answer any questions and assist in any way possible. It has been a pleasure to get to know them and see the amazing space. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants an outdoor wedding but also likes having the security blanket of an indoor space should weather occur day of the ceremony!

rall more than we could have ever asked for. The only thing I'm upset about is that we don't get to work with them or discuss our big day anymore - but I will be sure to suggest this venue to anyone I possibly can. There's no better wedding or event venue in PA. Thank you, Jess and Allory, for making my wedding more magical than I ever could have imagined. I can't recommend this venue enough.

it was envisioned. I would highly recommend Melhorn Manor to any couple who is in the process of planning a wedding!

er, ceremony, and reception there with beautifully kept grounds and barns. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for a venue in the Lancaster area.

in the beautiful bridal suite and grooms room. Jess and Allory go above and beyond to make everything come together for your wedding day. They are so easy to communicate with and also give great advice and suggestions for making your day flow smoothly. Even our guests were praising them for how great their venue was. We are so thankful that we chose Melhorn Manor and would definitely recommend the space to anyone!

ey also enthusiastically scheduled a time for my mom to come take an in-person tour after my FaceTime tour. The barn is absolutely gorgeous and an amazing spot to host a wedding. There are many unique touches throughout the barn that make this place truly special. Jessica and Allory genuinely want to help you have the wedding of your dreams and they work very hard to make it happen. They seem to have thought of everything and really helped to put my mind at ease as an out-of-state bride. I highly recommend Melhorn Manor for your wedding venue!

c to work with. The venue is beautiful, no expense has been spared, the parking is fantastic, the property is overall impeccable. It was important for us to work with a venue who cared. We didn’t want to be just another couple that the venue books to fill the weekend. We never felt like that! We developed a great working relationship and they aided us tremendously in making our day perfect. We knew that they would be there if anything went wrong, which it didn’t! They were willing to let us customize the spaces within reason, giving it a personal feeling. Too many other venues told us the space is what it is. Definitely not the case here. Love love love and highly recommend these passionate owners and their beautiful venue.

ke friends through the whole wedding planning process. We asked for a few things (like to bring in a dessert truck) and they were really flexible. We cannot more highly recommend them to any couples getting married in the Lancaster area!

nor in the future!

hoped it to be. They do SO much more than a typical venue owner (I know from working in the wedding industry) which is amazing. Their venue is breathtaking! My now husband and I booked with them before the construction on the barn was complete and the final look of everything is just gorgeous. All our guest were so impressed with how beautiful and spacious everything is (and we had over 190 guests attending!). On top of how beautiful everything is, they also have the option for air conditioning or heat depending on when you get married. We got married in October so we had no idea what the weather would be like but we didn't need to stress about it because we knew our guest would be comfortable no matter what the weather was! The venue also offers a bridal suite and grooms room to get ready in. My bridesmaids loved getting ready in the Bridal Suite! There was a lot of natural lighting for the make-up artists and the hair stylist to have while getting everyone ready (this was also a huge plus for the photographer and videographer!). M husband and his guys had a great time relaxing in the groom's​ room - he said he actually wish he went to hang out there earlier in the day because of how much fun him and his groomsmen had! If you are looking for a perfect barn for your rustic/ elegant wedding, look no further! Book with Jess and Allory today and you will have the perfect wedding venue there is :) Thank you guys so much again for all that you did!!

e. They were very flexible with allowing us, our wedding coordinator and our family to tour the venue frequently while planning, and gave us great ideas on how to best utilize the space for our specific event. We had absolutely no worries on the "big day" as both Jessica & Allory were on site working directly, and efficiently with our wedding coordinator and vendors. The venue itself is simply beautiful and minimal decor was needed to make it look stunning. You can see the love and care that has gone into updating and maintaining such a beautiful estate. We would get married here again in a heartbeat!!!

rom beginning to end. Brand new venue that is very beautiful, clean and accommodates a large party! Thanks again for a wonderful day!!

ry personable. I 100% recommend this establishments!

that are getting married.

elp of my mom. Jessica is a dream maker and goes above and beyond to make Melhorn Manor every brides little bit of paradise. She has made the beginning stages of my wedding planning so much more enjoyable! This is definitely the perfect place to make your perfect day a reality!

for guests but plenty of space inside and out for any event. I would recommend The Melhorn Manor to anyone looking for a wedding venue that fits all their needs.

d this venue to everyone I know! Absolutely fantastic!!

d friends. Jess and Allory are fantastic to work with. They want every occasion to be perfect. They are two of the hardest working couples I know. They are the best. Look no further than Melhorn Manor...
