Greatest Wedding Weekend Ever!

OMG! I could not have been a happier bride!!! Michelle, the event day coordinate, is quite literally the sweetest and funniest human being on the planet. She was so comforting to my own specific needs as a bride (IYKYK), and was the most professional when it came to any situation that arose. I could not recommend the food or the ambience enough. It's so cutesy and delightful! I wish I could get married there over and over!

Best Venue to Work With

Deer Path Inn was a dream wedding venue! Working with Mary Ellen made the entire process so smooth—she was communicative, organized, and made planning so simple. Her events team was equally wonderful, ensuring that every detail was perfect and the day-of execution was seamless. I couldn’t recommend Deer Path Inn more for anyone looking for a beautiful, well-coordinated venue with an outstanding team!
