Drumore Mill was an absolutely stunning venue to use for our special day (really weekend). We loved the ease of booking the venue, touring with Thuy, and the promptness and flexibility they offer. An added bonus is the available on site lodging for rental, which we made great use of for our close friends, family, and wedding party to stay in the night before and night of the wedding. We enjoyed the Great Room in the Grist Mill for our rehearsal dinner. Our guests loved how spacious Drumore Mill was, and we appreciated all the attention to detail such as included (but still optional) decor and greenery, and the setup of chairs and other items for the ceremony space. Being able to bring in all of our own vendors at no additional cost was fantastic. The value for renting the property from Thursday to Saturday morning was unmatched and completely worth it. We would recommend Drumore Mill to anyone, and we look forward to booking the property in the future for non-wedding related stays with friends and family.

Each and every time I arrive on location to officiate a wedding at Riverfront Events I am greeted with smiles and great enthusiasm! As a professional, I look for the little things that mean the most when collaborating efforts with other wedding vendors. We all have the same client, and the Riverfronts team surpasses my high standards. I look forward to going there every time. We communicate beautifully via email and in person. At a recent wedding, I noticed the team turning over a ceremony space into the reception area and I couldn't take my eyes off of them. They worked fast, precise, and in tandem. The food is also delicious! The servers pay attention to everyone! My ceremonies run like clockwork with Yassmin, Valerri, and Kelly. The space is esthetically beautiful, bright and clean, and conveniently located. Riverfront Events can EASILY accommodate small to huge weddings. I understand what it takes to pull off a successful event--a lot of behind-the-scenes prep. So, each time a wedding couple books me for this venue I get very excited knowing everyone involved is going to have a great experience!

You HAVE to get married here! We had the best experience ever from working with the Mendenhall. Every step of the way was carefully planned and thought out. They communicated so well, prepared and organized the event, and everything ran so smoothly. Also, they were so amazing to be very flexible and understanding throughout the process. Dottie and Gianna are amazing, and both of them will treat you like they are family. Food is killer- try it at the restaurant if you don't believe me, and the service is amazing. It looks like it'll cost an arm and a leg due to how fancy everything is, but it's very reasonably priced for all of the amenities. Please get married here and use this venue!!

We had the most incredible experience hosting our wedding at the Carriage house! It has been taken over by Prime Hospitality catering who did an amazing job from start to finish! Our guests raved over the food, waitstaff, and bartenders! Katie and her team took care of every single aspect of our wedding which allowed my husband and I, our families, and our bridal party to be stress free and enjoy the day! I could go on and on about how amazing our wedding day was! Not a single thing went wrong, Katie and her team decorated the venue beautifully, the service was fantastic, and our guests continue to reach out about how beautiful the wedding venue was. It was better than I could’ve ever expected! I hope that the Carriage House starts to see an increase in weddings at their venue because they are truly amazing at their job! Katie coordinated and helped me with planning the wedding out from day 1. She worked relentlessly behind the scenes to ensure we had a great day. The food was the best wedding meal I have ever had and I’m not just saying that because I had my wedding here. The restaurant associated with the caterers “Brandywine Prime” makes amazing food. I will admit when initially wedding planning I was unsure of the carriage house due to the lack of online presence and photos of recent weddings. It is truly a hidden gem and definitely worth considering for your wedding day!!

This property was beautiful, and the owners were wonderful to work with! Nestled in Chadds Ford, PA, the BnB is right next to Longwood Gardens and within 45 minutes of King of Prussia Mall (for any last-minute wedding shopping necessary, as it turns out we needed!). The wedding package we purchased included the entire BnB (6 rooms) for the bridal party, as well as the grounds to host our ceremony and/or reception (we did both!). Brad and Cindy did an amazing job of making sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying our stay, and the grounds ended up being absolutely stunning for our wedding day. They also have extras available to add-on to your package, as needed (tent, outdoor patio heaters, pew seating, and a super cute shutter altar set up!). Normally, venues in the Chadds Ford/Brandywine area are super expensive, but this one was not only affordable but very worthwhile!!! Thank you, Brad and Cindy!!
