Olde Homestead Golf Club

d. Breanna was so great to work with & always answered any questions that I had throughout the entire process (& I always had a lot of questions). The wedding day was so beautiful, the staff was wonderful & the food was absolutely delicious!

ALSO- one of the only barn venues we toured with GOOD AIR CONDITIONING! Food was delicious, and the entire staff was so friendly, professional, and on point- especially our wedding coordinator Breanna C.! She made the entire process feel so fun and easy, and genuinely cared so much about our wedding being our dream fairytale. She went above and beyond on our wedding day to make sure my husband & I were able to do everything we wanted on our special day. While we were taking our family photos outside, Breanna ran and got us a platter of EVERY passed hors d'oeuvres & our couples cocktails because she knew how badly we wanted to enjoy our cocktail hour snacks. During dancing there was an impromptu Conga line-my husband had taken a quick break from dancing to go grab his car keys for our sendoff, and she ran to go find him to make sure he didn't miss out on this super fun moment! Our wedding wouldn't be the same without her! Could not recommend Breanna C. and Olde Homestead enough!

edibly professional and communicative. Our day had many shifts in weather and the event managers Diana and Breanna as well as the service staff did an amazing job and making everything come together. Breanna did an impeccable job taking such good care of my husband and I, as well as our guests and making sure everything was running smoothly. This venue is gorgeous and the property is breath taking. I wouldn’t have a wedding anywhere else.

less anxious

e never felt stressed the day of and everything went as smoothly as it could have. Only two item to note. First, we paid extra for a liquor package and everyone noticed the pours to be extremely weak, for the money spent, you should feel you get your moneys worth. Second is that it was a little difficult to coordinate getting ready and getting to the venue on time for photos, as Olde Homestead does not allow you to set up or have access until 4 hours before the ceremony (we paid for extra time) every other venue we toured allowed you to have access to the venue as early as you need. However we looked past this as we loved the venue, and made it work. They did go through some staff changes with caused a few communication breakdowns during the planning, but everything got straightened out and the final product was amazing. I would absolutely recommend Olde Homestead to anyone getting ready to plan a wedding.

e was nothing short of a nightmare, from the start. My now husband and I were planning a multi-day wedding, with the plans of 2 of the events being held at Olde Homestead. The first employee we worked with, Leah, agreed that 300+ guests could fit in their Carriage House, and stated this on the contract that we all signed. Leah was no longer with the venue a few weeks later, and we were informed that in fact the contract was not accurate and that they could NOT accommodate 300+ people. This sent us back to the drawing board after losing precious time to find a new venue for our second night after we insisted that our contract was voided. Fast forward to the Spring, where we met with Jill, our event coordinator, to do preliminary planning in April for our October wedding. Only then during this meeting did she begin to shed light on all of the things that the venue would NOT do for us on the day of the wedding, all of which Leah made seem like were included. We were also forced to sign a contract during this meeting that we could not bring in any outside planners or day of coordinators, despite the fact that they would not help with anything besides catering day of the wedding. Come July, we were informed that Jill quit her position and that we would be assigned a new event coordinator, Jessica. I requested that the manager, Justin, set up a meeting for us with Jessica to discuss our wedding and to get to know her. We arrived early on a Sunday morning to meet Jessica, only to be greeted by Justin who informed us that Jessica would not be meeting with us, rather he would be meeting with us instead, who would not be at the wedding. We only first met Jessica 3 weeks before our wedding where we reviewed our final plans. It was clear that she was being overworked and did not have the support she needed to properly execute her role. During this meeting we were informed that: - They would only assist with decor that needed to be hung (after a long back and forth about the hanging of our neon sign with Justin). We were told “The family and bridal party have to do the set up of all decor” - They would not assist in the clean up of the event decor - They would not refrigerate our cakes the night prior because “someone may throw it out” - When asked if we could pick up our cake the next morning after the wedding, the response was “you can carry that on the bus” - They required us to keep a car on site at the venue for over 48 hours in order to ensure we didn’t inconvenience them by leaving our decor at the venue overnight to be picked up in the morning. ALL decor had to then be loaded into our car immediately after the wedding and parked in the parking lot overnight to be picked up in the morning - When I asked if the groomsmen could have a few drinks while waiting during our first look the response was “You can open a tab”, when I replied that my husband would not have his wallet on the day of his wedding, I was told “You have apple pay, right? We accept that as well” The day following our meeting I insisted on speaking with the manager, Justin, to which I expressed all of the above concerns to. His only response was “I understand how you can feel that way, we’ll keep that in mind for the future”. Offering absolutely NO solutions, and it was very obvious that he didn’t care about any of my concerns. Luckily, we have an amazing support system of friends and family who rallied around us and ensured that everything was set up beautifully. Our family and friends also all assisted in deconstructing the event and packing everything back into our car immediately after the reception. It’s unfortunate because the venue is absolutely beautiful, but until the management gets an overhaul, they will continue to run this place into the ground. Take the lesson learned from my experience, stay far away from this venue if you want a hassle free wedding experience.

with the timing of certain decisions. The food was great; many of our guests made a point to comment on that. The staff was very helpful and made sure my husband and I had what we needed. The only downside to Olde Homestead is that the venue needs to be cleaned up immediately after the wedding. You cannot leave anything behind to be picked up the next day.

ghout the entire planning process. Jill began supporting us with planning and then Jessica took over with planning and acting as our day of coordinator. The day went flawlessly and Jessica was able to execute everything with surgical precision! Jessica adapted things to fit our needs and made sure the entire team at the venue was on the same page. She also supported our bridal party by providing them with all the information they would need and making sure everyone knew their roles. It was so nice to be able to forget about planning and know Jessica had everything under control. On the day of, Danielle, one of the amazing members of the OHGC team, acted as our own personal server! She always made sure we had food and drinks in hand. She even alternated our water and drink intake. We quite literally were treated like royalty at OHGC. We couldn't be more grateful <3 Our family and friends were so complimentary of the staff and venue. Thank you!!!

to send you an email to let you know that you and your staff did an incredible job for our son's wedding this past Saturday. I was truly impressed with the service we received throughout the entire process. I was also really impressed how your staff handled the buffet. I had never seen service at a buffet like that where the server walks the line with the guest serving them. It really made the flow go so good and I didn't see any guests waiting in any lines. Your staff served that entire room super fast. Now onto the food. Everything was amazing! The Korean Beef Short Ribs were so tender and flavorable. The Roast Pork Loin was such a large portion, juicy and flavorable. My husband and I both had the Short Ribs and Pork Loin and loved both. We thoroughly enjoyed all the items on the menu served. Our family also commented on how incredible the food was. Even the coffee was good too. I did not drink any alcohol that night so I wasn't at the bar at all. But my husband said the bar staff was exceptional, engaging and friendly. The venue.....oh the venue...... it was gorgeous. We were a bit nervous that the wedding moved from the waterfront to inside the Bank Barn where we were having the reception. But it pulled together so nicely. I was nervous about only having 1 hour to decorate after rehearsal. But we were able to get it done. Your staffs' collaboration in creating the perfect wedding day was truly appreciated. The wedding turned out to be beautiful and exactly what we were shooting for. Now onto you.....thank you for answering my emails when I pestered you about details I was worried about. You were always very responsive and gave me comfort in knowing you were on it. You kept everything on track that day. Your professionalism and expertise really shows. You were very attentive to the needs of everyone and the checking in to ensure we had what we needed and it was appreciated. Emily was also very helpful and also put our minds at ease. Thank you for keeping everyone on schedule and the flow moving nicely. Even the staff in the club house was amazing. I know it takes a lot of work to put these events together. I can only imagine how much pressure it could be to manage all that, the guests, and all the details that goes into it. I am grateful that you just let me do my thing with the decorating. I appreciated at the end of the night too when you had your staff break down the tables and put all the stuff on one table so it would be easy for us to pack it up. I just felt like I needed to just send you a message letting you know how vital you and your staff were to pull off this perfect wedding day for our son. Thank you and thank your staff.

g wedding day for us! The grounds are well kept and offer so many spots for photographs. The food was fantastic and the way they handle the buffet is impressive - they have one server per person to walk you through the buffet line. We had our ceremony and reception inside given we got married in December. I was worried that it would be disruptive when they had to move chairs from the ceremony to reception area but my guests said they moved the chairs in lighting speed and flawlessly! I do wish they would give you more time to set up and clean up, especially because you have to do most of the set up and clean up yourself. And it’s important to also know that they charge a 20% service charge fee and tax on that 20% service charge as well. Overall, I highly recommend Olde Honestead for a beautiful rustic wedding any time of the year!!

urse. It was the perfect place for her fall wedding. The entire experience from our first visit to the tasting and the day of the event exceeded our expectations. Everyone at Olde Homestead from our coordinator Jill, the cooks, the bartenders and the servers were professional, accommodating, polite and a joy to be around. They helped make her day outstanding!!! Every single guest had glowing things to say about the food, service and the venue!! Several guests told us it was the best food they ever had at any wedding venue!! It was such a pleasure dealing wit( the event planner, finalizing the details and menu, table arrangements and all the details. Nothing was overlooked and with Jill’s help the day ran smoother than a Swiss watch! As a parent you want that perfect day for your your daughters wedding. The staff at Olde Homestead made sure her day was truly perfect!

ll of that Jill, our wedding planner, made our day a dream. I did not have to worry about a single thing Jill handled all of it and was always one step ahead of me. I was so grateful for this because it gave me the opportunity to really enjoy my day and be present in the moment! She is fantastic!!!

day off was so wonderful and kind as well. It ended up raining on our wedding day which is not what we had planned but everything still turned out beautiful, everyone was so helpful and accommodating what making that transition to inside. We have been getting compliments from so many guests about the venue- especially about the food which was spectacular. We have no complaints, Olde Homestead is the best!

and attentive, especially Jill and Leah. Our guest almost a month later keep raving about the food and the views!

even more special and less stressful than we could could have accomplished on our own. Our guests raved about the gorgeous view and the amazingly delicious food prepared by the executive chef. The staff was attentive and accommodating to our every need. We highly recommend this venue for any size event. Bonus: the food at the Conestoga Cafe is amazing; we enjoyed eating there when we went for our planning sessions.

hat day!) to our wedding day, it was everything we imagined it to be. We worked with Jill leading up to the day of, and then Leah was our day of coordinator. Leah made sure EVERYTHING was taken care of and even helped me carry my train while doing property photos. There was a hiccup with setup, where I was told I didn't need to do anything, but then during photos was asked to do it myself that got me a little stressed, but Leah stepped in and ensured it was all done. It rained on our wedding day (more of a constant mist), which allowed for the most insanely beautiful property photos. Everyone has commented on how it looks like we got married in the English Countryside. We ended up moving our ceremony indoors, and it was maybe even more ideal and intimate than outside given our small guest list. Everyone raved about the food, especially the passed hors d'oeuvres. We went with the Shire Package. We chose to stick with the buffet option, and while my husband and I did not have to stand in line (someone brought us our food - loved this), it looked like it went very smoothly even though none of my guests listened to the fact that they were going to call people up by table number haha. My only gripe would be that we were assured our small guest count would not be a problem at all, but during one of our last planning calls, we were told that we needed to utilize every farm table they have, as they have no where to store extra tables. We made it work, but it was stressful to change my whole seating plan only a couple of weeks prior. This also cost us more money with our florist, as we had to add tables. I would say that if you're like me, and do not want to have to worry about all the little wedding day details, definitely book Olde Homestead. We loved that it was all inclusive - food, drinks, tables, chairs, linens, ceremony space, bridal suite, etc. are all included in their very reasonable pricing. There's also an option for them to do the florals & decor. Thank you Jill, Leah and Olde Homestead team for our beautiful day that we will remember forever - The Mazers

easy to communicate with and get ahold of, she answered all our questions, and she made the process very easy and stress free. She was there all day and made sure everything went smoothly. We are so grateful for you Jill and everyone at Olde Homestead. Our day was beautiful and exactly how we imagined. I could not be more thankful that you were there every step of the way. I would give more than 5 stars if I could. We had the best night of our life. Thank you so so much!! - Kaycie and Josh Gurinko

th went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our day as much as possible and all of our guests had nothing but great things to say. Everything is so beautiful on the property and the food was perfect. The open bar was 100% worth it as well for us. Nothing but good things to say!

was it! Not only is the barn beautiful, they have gorgeous views, new bathrooms, a new bridal suite, and a large bar (hard to find in barns!!) Since our first visit at Olde Homestead, I had a vision. I want to say a HUGE thank you to Leah and Jill for seeing my vision and letting me run with it. Leah is a talent in herself and crafts a lot of the pieces you’ll see on the property. Together they created the most beautiful cocktail hour space for us and allowed me to decorate the main barn exactly the way I envisioned. We went with the 6 hour Morgan package, and if you’re thinking of splurging for it- DO IT. All of our guest raved about the amount of food! Jill was our main girl on wedding day and she did not disappoint! She was always there with anything we needed. Danielle in the catering department made sure to take special care of some of our older guest. These kind hearted people are not just workers, they truly show up on your wedding day ready to be there for you. We wish we could relive this day over and over and can not wait to go back to visit!! Thank you all SO much for being who you are and provide the best service. We will never forget you!!

nge space, patio and bridal room. The food is also outstanding – from the appetizers to the main meal, everything was hot and delicious. Our friends and family raved about how beautiful the venue was and also how it was arguably the best wedding food they’d ever eaten. Leading up to the wedding, we appreciated the prompt responses and impressive organization from our event planner, but sometimes felt that she was underwhelmed or slightly judgmental by the decisions we were making which was frustrating, but we acknowledged that everyone has different tastes so we didn’t say anything. On the day of our wedding, we felt that our event planner was slightly underdressed wearing a jean jacket to our wedding and we also didn’t appreciate her lack of flexibility throughout our event. We acknowledge that a timeline is important for the ceremony to start on time and to make sure that people are served food at an appropriate hour, but we also knew there was built in cushion time so we didn’t appreciate that we felt rushed at different periods and that she overrode one of the decisions we made during our event (whether we should go take photos with each dinner table or to have BM/MOH speeches first – so really nothing that would impact the staff so should have been our decision). Unfortunately, we also felt that some of our vendors were intimidated by her abrasive nature and not comfortable asking her questions since they were coming to us with questions that we know they’d normally go to an event manager with since we’ve interacted with them at events previously. Disappointingly at the end of the night, as things were getting cleaned up, I noticed that they were handling the centerpieces over in the corner of the barn, when I went to investigate, I found out that they had thrown out all of the flowers from my centerpieces – I was too tired at that point to say anything, but my mom had all intentions of taking them home, so it was quite disappointing to see such beautiful flowers going straight in the trash without someone even asking what we wanted done with them.

ding so easy. They have an awesome option for a non traditional wedding that takes a lot of pressure off. The views and the barn were unbelievable as well. In the end it was the staff that made my wedding. They were the best people to work with. They made my life so easy. They answered all of my questions in a timely fashion and were so genuine. I knew this was the right place for me the second my husband and I went to look at. I didn’t even want to look at other venues because I just knew Olde Homestead was the place for me.

how beautiful the property was, as well as the potential for beautiful photos. Jill, Leah and the rest of the staff did a wonderful job with executing our evening. Jill was with us every step of the way and was nothing but attentive and worried about our wants and needs as a couple! After the ceremony, Jill delivered hor d'oeuvres and drinks to my husband and I to ensure we had a chance to enjoy the hor d'oeuvres we chose and to make sure we didn't go hungry! We could not have had a better venue or staff to be a part of our wedding day.
