Strawberry manor was a dream to work with! The owner, Brittany, knows exactly what she is doing and will make sure your day is perfect!! The grounds at Strawberry manor are stunning and well kept. It was raining on my wedding day and they made a backup plan with no problem and were very accommodating for myself and my guests. I truly can’t say enough good things about this venue! I would recommend it to anyone!!
Working with Strawberry Manor for our October 2025 wedding was such a joy! You can tell how much the ladies working there love the venue and planning meaningful events, and the space itself has a gorgeous old-world-meets-enchanted-garden feel that was perfect for the moody library wedding of my dreams. Holly was our coordinator and she did the most incredible job making our day flow smoothly during the whole process. Brittany decorated the space beautifully with the decor package, and really really appreciated that we were able to book the photo booth and cake baker through the ladies so it was one less thing for us to coordinate ourselves. I’m so glad we chose to have our wedding here and I’d highly recommend it for any other event!
