Beautiful wedding

White Chimneys was exactly what I wanted in a venue. My fiancé and I had our first date in Lancaster county and we decided this was the area we wanted to get married in since it played a role in our story. From the day we toured the venue Miriam and Jessica were nothing but professional and amazing to work with. We were able to “build a wedding” using vendors that they recommended as well as any that we found with the exception of the bar service which they ask that you use theirs.

They really helped us visualize what everything would look like the day of and then delivered even better than I could have imagined. Our guests loved the venue and the attention to details which was all made possible because of the suggestions of the White Chimneys staff! It was by far the best day of our lives.

10/10 - BEAUTIFUL venue

My husband and I could not have picked a better venue for our wedding this past October. White Chimneys’ staff was very friendly and extremely accommodating. Miriam, our event coordinator was always very helpful and guided us with any questions we had. She made sure our big day was everything we had imagined and more. Our guests were blown away by the venue’s beauty - straight out of a magazine. And who can forget the shot donkey? Our family and friends are still raving about it. If you are looking for a wedding venue, look no further! White Chimneys Estate is the BEST! They will make your vision come to life however big or small.

Our Dream Wedding day!

White Chimneys Estate is such a unique and rare wedding venue in Central PA. I am OBSSESED with their formal gardens, we looked at other venues and did not see anything like this. Since it is a national historic site, they have such old beautiful features like the lily pond, fountain and pergola to the property. The bridal suite is TO DIE for, so many of my bridesmaids commented that it was the nicest one they were ever in. It has an elegant and Victorian vibe to it that is very unique.

What I really appreciated was the flexibility of the owners. They allow you to truly have your dream day come true. They are open to all ideas and willing to give it a go! A lot of venues only allow you to use certain vendors and do things a certain way and this was not the case at all with them.

I was also very impressed with how many pre-wedding meetings/planning that we had. Miriam was very helpful early on with providing me a step-by-step binder of things that I needed to think about/plan. None of this was an extra charge and included with your wedding planning. I felt the prices were reasonable and they gave you many recommendations on all sorts of vendors that you will need. Both Miriam and Jessica were always quick to respond to any questions that I had. They were kind enough to allow us to set up Thursday night whenever we wanted (Friday wedding) and allowed the wedding party to arrive as early as we wanted to for the wedding day.

My only downfall was that I wish someone would have been in the bridal suite or checking on us about an hour two before the first look. I could have used someone to delegate and keep an eye on the time/schedule. I guess my assumption was that a coordinator would have been in the suite with us at least towards the end but that could have just been a miscommunication. It felt a bit chaotic in the bridal suite at the end and we did miss our cocktail hour because of being behind.
It was the perfect day regardless and I wouldn't change anything. If you are looking for a unique, beautiful and flexible wedding venue White Chimneys is your go to!!
