We toured a lot of venues, but my husband and I knew that Weddings on Memory Lane was the perfect place for our wedding right away. Melanie is so fantastic - she truly has everything organized down to every detail. I completely trusted her to make sure our day went smoothly. The venue has so many beautiful locations and my favorite part of the day was sitting at the reception with the twinkling lights and looking out at the sunset in the field. The dance floor outside is also so fun and unique! We had our ceremony at a church offsite, but Melanie came to the rehearsal and ceremony to help coordinate. She also did our flowers - she truly does it all! So many of our guests said to us how amazing the venue was and that it's a hidden gem! You won't go wrong with having your wedding here!!

Melanie was fantastic in every single way! She made our wedding go by perfectly! It was the most beautiful and special weekend of our entire lives. The venue is absolutely beautiful. We knew from the moment we saw it that it would be the one for us. Memory Lane was the first wedding venue we looked at and we booked it immediately. For us it was so special so romantic. Melanie let us come and spend the day before setting up and getting ready, we also ran through a perfect rehearsal with Melanie! We got some beautiful wedding photos from Melanie that we will cherish forever! She is the sweetest angel and is in constant communication with you months leading up to the wedding day. She makes sure to capture every single detail. Melanie sent us a very helpful planner PDF that we were able to use to make the day go smoothly for everyone and send to all our vendors. She makes beautiful PDF files for you, that I actually had printed and framed in our wedding album. She sent us a wonderful seating chart to help us with planning! She also did my beautiful bridal bouquet and it was perfect in every way. Everything I could have dreamed of. I wish that I could relieve the moments and that day over and over again on repeat. The bridal suite and grooms suite was perfect! There was plenty of room for the artist to work as well as people who did their own makeup. The boys had lots of fun! We had access to a bathroom and fridge! We had access to the suite all night which was great for my sister in law to breast feed her baby in comfort and privacy. The ceremony was perfect it was so beautiful and coming out of the stone tunnel was so magical for us. I can’t believe I am finally married to my husband and best friend and we couldn’t have done it without Melanie and her amazing team! Melanie also gave us a long long list of recommendations to choose from for vendors. We found our INCREDIBLE cater from Melanie. LaFrattes Catering with Dante. The food was out of this world and Melanie made sure to pack us a doggie bag to share for our home. She so lovingly packed the top tier of our wedding cake for us. We had a MAGICAL firework show that we suprised all our guests with towards the end of the wedding. Melanie’s husband did a fantastic job setting them off and making us feel like we were in Disney world. Everyone loved the firework show and was completely stunned by the magic we shared with them thanks to Melanie and her Husband. I looked forward to the show the most and it was as good as any Fourth of July show!!!!!! But this was better because it was for our wedding and for our wonderful guests. We were able to come grab our things the morning after our wedding which was extremely helpful for us. Thank you Melanie for all that you did for us and beyond. Words cannot express the deep gratitude that we have for you. If you are thinking of booking don’t even hesitate do it immediately! You will not regret the magic that is created here right down to the deer in the woods making you feel part of a fairy tale book. I was truly a real princess that day thanks to her! I could go on and on! Thank you Melanie! We thank God to be so blessed to have found you, and that he led us to you to host our beautiful dream come true. All of our love Mr. and Mrs. Connelly.

Weddings On Memory Lane was the perfect location for our summer wedding. Our guests were raving about the venue and how picturesque everything was. We could not have pulled off such a perfect wedding without the help of Melanie, the venue owner who we also hired as our day-of-coordinator. She went above and beyond to accommodate and make our day run smoothly. Picking WOML as our wedding venue was one of the best wedding planning decisions we made!

If you're looking for an aesthetic outdoor wedding ceremony, WOML is perfect. We got married here 5/25/24 with our ceremony held at the arbor on the pond and it could not have been more beautiful. We have received SO many compliments from our guests about the beauty of the venue, how many great locations there are for photos, and the decor within the reception barn. Melanie keeps everything moving like clockwork, and oversees the whole day to make sure it is run the way you would like. The bridal suite is spacious and beautiful, so my girls and I were comfortable for the 6+ hours we spent there getting ready. It is also RARE & SO HELPFUL for a venue to only host 1 wedding per weekend like WOML.

I cannot say enough positive comments about this venue- my husband and I got married in July 2023 and the wedding planning process was seamless- all thanks to Melanie. We hired her for flowers and venue coordinator as well. The venue is absolutely breathtaking and I got so many compliments about each location. Melanie was very communicative, available at every step of the process. We are SO happy we chose Weddings on Memory Lane!

We booked this venue in December and, given it's an outdoor venue, it was their off season. Melanie, the owner, did a great job reassuring us and showing us pictures of what it's like when it's in season and full bloom. We were NOT disappointed when we revisited again that spring - it matched the pictures! The venue was beautiful, the getting ready suites were set up perfectly and I loved the renovations she did shortly before our wedding. Everywhere you looked was picturesque! Many guests commented on how beautiful the venue was and had their own favorite spot, like the pond or gazebo or inside of the reception barn. To top it all off, Melanie was a phenomenal venue owner to work with and made everything so easy for us. We also hired her as our day-of coordinator and it was one of our best decisions. The day went smoothly with very minor hitches (none of which the fault of Melanie or were related to the venue) and I was able to relax and enjoy getting ready with my girls and mom and MIL. I will ALWAYS recommend this venue to future brides.

Words can’t even describe how beautiful our wedding day turned out at this amazing and picture perfect venue! Melanie was so wonderful to work with and helpful from the day we booked with her and even after our wedding, she has still been in touch and helpful! If you are looking for a place with many photo ops, someone to make your day go as smooth as possible, this is the place! Melanie also made my beautiful bouquets and floral arrangements seen throughout, just another one of the many added bonuses! We HIGHLY recommend this venue and promise you won’t be disappointed with Melanie, her family, and all the details!

I'm not sure where to start for the incredible experience. My husband and I had the wedding of our dreams at Weddings on Memory Lane. When we began to look around, we wanted to find a venue that would fit us. From the minute we pulled up to the location and spoke with Melanie, we knew that it would be the perfect location for us. To begin with, Melanie was fantastic and genuinely wants to make your event perfect. She was very detailed, helpful, and quick to respond. The entire process of planning was made so easy. Melanie and her staff set and cleaned up everything for us. We didn't have to worry about a thing! This relieved so much pressure and allowed us to thoroughly enjoy our big day. We had our ceremony at the Tuscan Arches and everything was absolutely breath taking and ran extremely smoothly. Honestly, everything about Weddings on Memory Lane exceeded our hopes and expectations. We can't thank Melanie enough for all the wonderful support.

We just had our wedding at WOML (8.22.2020), and I am still in awe over how incredible my experience was. Pandemic and all, Melanie (event coordinator) ensured and delivered on a perfect wedding day. We lucked out with the weather, and everything was taken care of. As the coordinator, Melanie handled every vendor and took care of every detail with great care.
As stressful as a wedding can be, there was not a thing for me to worry about the entire day except getting ready. There are getting ready rooms for both sides of the bridal party, plenty of room for dinner and dancing, all surrounded by the beautiful woods and mountains of PA. Not to mention, all of the scenery creates amazing photo opps (the woods, by the pond, in a corn field)....
Truly a rustic dream fairytale wedding!

Weddings on Memory Lane is an absolutely beautiful and breath taking location. There are so many places at the venue that you can choose from to make your day perfect. Our wedding in May was more than we imagined it would be. Melanie, is absolutely wonderful to work with and easing all of the wedding stress is a added perk! She not only handled the day of our wedding, but answered any questions and helped anyway she could throughout our wedding process. Our guests had nothing but great things to say about the venue and many said they had never seen a venue as beautiful as WOML. You will not regret having your wedding here, hands down WOML deserves a 5 out of 5!

We had our wedding here in August of 2018. It is a beautiful location with many options for creative photos and multiple areas to hold ceremony, cocktail hour, and the reception. When we first glanced at this place online, we thought it was a little expensive - but actually, once you add up all the little costs of other venues, this one is a good deal. Nicer chairs and tables and basic decorations are just included, the staff also helps tell people where to go, where to park, and they do all the set up and tear-down, too, included in the fee. it really is so much less work than less expensive venues we looked at, and it was less work the day of. They also allow you to bring in whatever caterer and vendors you choose, so you can have more control of your budget. They have a great list of vendors too, to help with your research - we went with one of their recommended caterers and were really happy with the food.
We were so pleased with everything. Melanie manages the events and she can also be hired for the “day of” coordinator for a very reasonable price- about a third of the cost of hiring an outside professional. She was always responsive and gave us great advice, and the day of she made us feel very taken care of. She and her team thought of every little thing - from bringing the wedding party apps and a cocktail while we were taking photos, to maneuvering around a few scattered rain showers. She also did our flowers, as she used to be a florist, and she gave me advice on how to make the bouquets nice but more inexpensive - they turned out wonderful and I saved a lot of money by using her services. The day of, she and her team were all over everything - but you didn’t even notice them. they were extremely professional and efficient.
If we could do it all again, we would choose Weddings on Memory Lane!

Can I give 10 stars? Melanie made the day so easy. Even with the vendor hiccups and the last minute changes, she had it under control. The bridal suite was great and made for perfect spying on guests as we got ready. The natural light made for some good photo opportunities.
The setting is beautiful. All day and the ones following, everyone couldn't help but gush over how picturesque it was. And the barn made for a lovely intimate setting.
This was the only venue we looked at and that day it had been raining. I remember saying if it is this beautiful in the rain I can't imagine how it will look in the sun. After our tour I knew we wouldn't need to look any further. I'm so glad I followed my gut and booked WOML.

Mandy was AMAZING to work with! The venue was absolutely gorgeous and Mandy was outstanding. We paid to have her as our wedding coordinator and I absolutely recommend doing so. It kept me from going crazy when planning! I can't say thank you enough to Mandy and the Weddings on Memory Lane team. They made our day absolutely beautiful and perfect ❤️❤️❤️

What a wonderful experience working with Melanie and her staff. Melanie treated me like the only bride she had even 6 months before my wedding. The venue is stunning with so many options to make my wedding unique. the homestead was the perfect prepping place for my and my bridal party. Melanie even put extra mirrors in my suite which my photographer was excited about. I can't say enough about the venue... they are doing it right!!!

My fiancé and I got engaged while living overseas, volunteering in Uganda. We started the stressful process of planning a wedding in 6 months while living in a different country. Finding a venue that was within our budget and free within our time frame felt daunting - but then we found Weddings on Memory Lane!
From the moment that I connected with Melanie Haldeman (the wedding coordinator), I couldn't have been better taken care of. She made time to speak with me on the phone even with an 8 hour time difference. She eased my fears, offered advice, and was quick to reply to every email.
After seeing the gorgeous wood-filled barn with stunning ceiling beams and fairy lights, we booked on the spot. It was the best decision we could have made. Melanie, and the entire Weddings on Memory Lane team made our wedding even more beautiful and easy than I could have hoped.
Melanie and her team worked with all of my vendors to coordinate food, photos, flowers and set-up of all of our rentals. Even when I had no idea what I wanted or how I wanted things to look, Melanie knew! She has a wonderful eye and isn't rattled by stress. She is a true professional and was able to guide me on decisions that needed made and the pros and cons of my options.
On our wedding day, when we walked into the venue, we were blown away by the event we had created. Melanie had coordinated more than we knew could be possible within our budget. She was so accommodating and handled all of my last minute emergencies - like when our sound system fell through the day before our wedding!
The main barn features multiple bay doors that can be opened into the glorious outdoor space that's just perfect for mingling when it's warm. The barn itself is spacious and can comfortably accommodate a large party, but is set-up in a way that smaller groups won't feel lost. It worked really well for our event which hosted 140 people with long, farm-style tables for family dining. With the lights and high ceilings, it feels quite magical. It has all sorts of rustic charm.
The space in the adjacent farmhouse was wonderful for getting ready, offering more than enough space for all of my bridesmaids and family members to join in with the fun.
We honestly couldn't have received better feedback from our friends and family. There wasn't a single hiccup the entire day. And if there was, Melanie made sure to take care of it before we knew. My day was stress free and more than I imagined.
Weddings on Memory Lane (and Melanie), thank you for making our wedding dreams come true. I can't possibly recommend this team or this space more. It's wonderfully priced, gorgeously decorated, and situated on acres of stunning land. You won't be disappointed!
So much love to this space and this teaam!

Everything was conducted with such care, and attention to every detail there was nothing over looked. The day was exceeded far beyond our expectations. From the creative beauty that went into generating this venue including the wedding bouquets & floral arrangements, our day was just as we had wanted and more: simple and elegant. The atmosphere was so much more special than we had imagined possible. The beauty and unique style of our wedding is still talked about by our guests! Thank you so much for making our special day "on memory lane" one to be remembered.

We had the wedding of our dreams at Weddings on Memory Lane! The property is so private it made our wedding experience so intimate and romantic. We loved the convenience of having both the ceremony and reception at the same location. Our guests also appreciated how close the property is in relation to Hershey attractions! Our photographer raved over the abundance of outstanding photo opportunities so much that one of our photos was featured in Harrisburg Magazine. Melanie did exceptionally well decorating our ceremony and reception. I cannot express how impressed I was with our wedding flowers. With her many years of experience as a professional wedding florist, she exceeded my expectations. I was so impressed with her organization and to what extent she went to attend to every detail of our special day. She did a phenomenal job of turning my vision into reality! Our guests continue to complement us on our wedding, even months later! We will forever refer our friends to this venue because of the awesome experience and service we received!
