Moonstone Manor

ing is so stunning. The mansion is beautiful, the rose arches are gorgeous and the reception tent so beautiful. This wedding venue is a literally fairytale.

. I am so glad I chose this gorgeous venue to marry my best friend. The pictures turned out beautifully and it will be a day that I never forget!

t still had a back yard, intimate feel. Moonstone gave us exactly that. It’s enchanting both inside and out. Just gorgeous.

y of. The time and effort they put toward our event is unmatched and if we were to do it all over again we wouldn't hesitate choosing Moonstone manor once again. The grounds of the Manor are kept in pristine condition. The inhouse catering by Food For Thought Catering received rave reviews from all of our guest and as the bride and groom we were beyond satisfied with the quality of the food, everything was delicious and the staff managed to take care of even the finest of details. I urge anyone seeking a venue for any special event; look no further, Moonstone Manor is the place you have been looking for.

ly wanted an outside wedding, so she was very pleased this venue offers a covered open-air option in the event of rain. Thankfully we did not need to take advantage of this option. We really enjoyed having most of our extended family stay all under the same roof for two nights as well. Moonstone Manor fit all of our needs. The staff were excellent as well. I can’t say enough good things about them and their venue. It was everything we hoped it would be.

t rained nearly the entire day, and it was still beautiful with plenty of great photo opportunities and places to hide from the rain! We are so incredibly pleased with our venue and the staff and would highly recommend them.

and Mary were a pleasure to work with and are so invested in their clients. I'm so happy that the manor house is now a B&B so we could stay there and soak up that beautiful feeling I get whenever I step foot on the grounds.

y ‘over the moon’ at how beautiful and nice everything was. We had constant compliments the entire day! Gina and Mary were incredible throughout our entire planning process! They were quick to answer questions, welcomed visits, and offered lots of sound advice on many occasions!! We can not say enough wonderful things about them and their staff! Needless to say, we were thrilled with our entire experience!

property, everything was perfect for our dream wedding. The Moonstone Manor Team was extremely helpful from our first tour to the end of our wedding day. They walked with us every step of the way. I cannot thank them enough for their kindness, knowledge and patience with our hundreds of questions about everything. Our wedding day was perfect and we received a multitude of compliments from guests on what a wonderful venue we chose, and I can’t help but agree 100%! I highly recommend Moonstone Manor as your wedding or event venue!

part in that.

lieve it should be awarded the highest honors and awards!! Ruthie and Greg M.

. Multiple guests told us it was the best and most beautiful wedding they had ever been to. Highly recommend!!

taking. You will have beautiful photos of your day, as the mansion and grounds are gorgeous. You really can tell the staff loves and takes pride in what they do. Everyone is so pleasant and we were treated like royalty. Thank you to everyone at Moonstone Manor!

probably visited 12 or 13 venues when we were trying to pick a spot to have our wedding and I can say without pause that Moonstone Manor was the ONLY venue that I cried at (happy tears of course!) The charm of Moonstone Manor is magnetic and it truly manifested itself into our hearts within the first few minutes of visiting. The manor itself is enchanting in every sense of the word but the property surrounding the manor is magical in its own right - it's like fairytale inception!!! I need to start finding synonyms for the word magical but it's the best word to describe this venue. The groomsman's quarters are so rugged and full of just the right amount of masculine energy that any guy would want to feel on his big day. Likewise, ANY room inside the manor could give the bride and her bridesmaids a feeling of being a fairy in their own storybook. The art, the natural light, and the flow of the property was enough to keep us coming back (we already booked ourselves a night at the Manor for over the holidays!) Two things (among many others that I will mention) that made this choice of venue a no-brainer, were the tent and the rain plan. The tent is beautifully set looking over the stream and the floor of the tent is a gorgeous granite-like stone that lifts the formality of the party to a new level while keeping it natural and close to nature. The rain plan is a lovely little church-like pavilion with pews and, once again, a lovely view of the property. The best part of the rain plan is that it's STILL OUTSIDE! I loved that no matter the weather, my yearn to be in nature wouldn't be quelled. So yes, the property is amazing but the most important part of this venue are the two women who run it - Gina and Mary. The love they have for their couples is PALPABLE - it was like talking to my mother every time I got to discuss something with them either over the phone, in person, or via email. They are maternal and sweet and will bend over backwards to make sure everything goes according to plan. Even during the pandemic, their positivity and optimism provided such comfort. Not once in any of the decisions we had to make (changing our date to the following year) did Gina or Mary make us feel guilty or unworthy of our big day. They were encouraging, sweet, and so mindful of the gravity of this day and what it meant to us. I find myself tearing up every time I write about Moonstone or think about our day there. It was an experience I wish I could relive over and over again. The last thing I'll say is that if you're looking for a caterer, CHOOSE FOOD FOR THOUGHT!!!! Gina absolutely CRUSHES it in the kitchen. Her food is fresh, seasonal, and appealing to the eyes AND belly. Highly recommend this venue for all sorts of reasons but above all, we recommend it if you want to feel like you're at home, surrounded by loved ones (new and old) on the best day of your life. The inn-keepers, Faith and Keegan, were like gentle reminders throughout the weekend that guests are family at Moonstone Manor. We felt so cared for and elated the entire time we spent at Moonstone. We plan to return as often as we can to relive the magic and soak up the love shared here! All our love, to the moon and back, Kristi, MJ and Kula

ords that have been stuck in my head and that I’ve heard from guests are MAGICAL and DREAMY! We had the most magical night, and truly cannot stop thinking about how perfect everything was! From the first day we stepped foot onto beautiful property, we knew it was meant to be. We felt an instant connection with Gina and Mary and from day one they treated us like family. They went above and beyond to make this the perfect wedding for US and customized and executed every aspect of the day. They quite literally made our dream a reality. It was so dreamy it’s hard to believe it was real. The attention to detail from start to finish was everything. Everyone had the best time, and it was truly a wedding for the record books…absolutely epic. Every time we planned to come for a meeting, we were excited for days beforehand. Not only to see Moonstone and bask in all its beauty, but also to see Gina & Mary! We will miss our meetings with them dearly and plan to book an anniversary stay each year! Our guests are still raving about the ambiance, service and most importantly the FOOD! Food for thought is Gina’s catering company and they knocked it out of the park! It was a perfect day at the perfect venue with the perfect staff! We couldn’t have asked for anything more. Book Moonstone and Food for Thought Catering, I promise you will not be disappointed!

ne Manor on The Knot and found it too beautiful not to check out. The beauty of the property and the mansion beat out the Poconos venues and, conveniently, it was only 30 minutes from our house, so we promptly booked. From there, Mary and Gina worked with us and allowed us to have the flexibility of reserving for a minimony with immediate family, but having the option to hold a larger wedding with enough notice if we wanted to increase. We decided to stick with the minimony for ease and safety and again, the Moonstone and Food For Thought staff came through making the entire event run seamlessly. Given the small wedding size, I didn’t have bridesmaids to help and I hadn’t hired a wedding planner, but the Moonstone staff helped to make sure everything got to the right place at the right time. The property is absolutely beautiful and they helped me select the perfect spot with greenery and the creek as a backdrop. Gina, who owns the mansion and runs Food For Thought catering is also a dog lover, so our beloved Fuller was able to partake in the day as our ring bearer. And finally, the food was incredible - we were talking about it for days to come. Thank you, Gina and Mary, for making our wedding day absolutely perfect!

he property. The ladies were very helpful and we really enjoyed working with them! We got so many compliments on the venue and how smoothly everything ran.

lots of flexibility needed to accommodate the safety of our guests. Even with a smaller gathering than we initially planned, we experienced all of the magic of Moonstone -- from the historic manor, to the Conewago Creek, to the incredible grounds to walk and soak in the beauty of the day. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank the Moonstone team and give the highest possible recommendation for those considering getting married at this incredible place!

od for Thought Catering. The food was absolutely delicious and all of our guests gave so many compliments! We were able to stay over the night before the wedding which made getting ready the morning of super easy! I can’t say enough good things about Gina and Moonstone Manor. Everyone was so easy to work with and the grounds were absolutely beautiful! I wish we could do it all over again!

Thought for the catering and they were also awesome to work w/. Everyone is very helpful, professional and they truly care about You. We started there Thursday evening for the Rehearsal dinner, stayed over night. Had our daughter’s wedding there Friday and stayed again over night after the wedding. It was so nice to check in and have extended days to relax and fully enjoy the venue w/out feeling rushed through our special day. You spend a year or more planning for your special day why not let it last for at least a couple of days. Thank you Moonstone for creating a picture perfect weekend;)

are yours for the time being. The staff is so accommodating. We loved our experience here at Moonstone. Being able to rent either a few of the rooms, or the whole mansion allowed us to relax and not feel rushed the day of the wedding. The staff provided warm smiles and coffee, along with many other breakfast goodies from Food for Thought. We had a different vision on how to serve our food to our guests, and Food for Thought made it happen. They never questioned, they only guided, and helped make our vision come true! I cannot recommend this venue, and caterer enough. You will not be disappointed. My now husband and I have already talked about staying over in the mansion on anniversaries, to relive our magical day. Thank you for going above and beyond Gina, Mary and Moonstone staff!

uld use if it rained. Our day was perfect and sunny in early October, so we were able to be by our favorite feature: the creek! Mary and Gina were helpful and there whenever I had a question. During the pandemic, I was nervous they were going to close, but they were very adamant about making as many accommodations for their couples as they could. We felt so lucky having Moonstone as our venue. We stayed overnight in the Nightingale Suite inside the manor house, and their housekeeper Faith was AMAZING. Their groomsmen room is awesome, and the three bridal party rooms were lovely to get ready in.

h fell in love. Our guests are still raving to us about how beautiful and unique the venue was! We have nothing but good things to say. Gina, Mary, and the team are truly incredible. They treat everyone with such respect and were there to answer all of my emails (even to calm me down when things got crazy). They were so accommodating and sweet through postponing the wedding due to covid. On the day of, Gina and Mary were both hands on with a smile on their faces. You can really tell they love what they do. I could not have asked for more from a venue. We love Moonstone Manor.
