Mount Hope made wedding planning fun
Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but the team at Mount Hope made it feel effortless. From our very first inquiry to the final goodbyes, their kindness and responsiveness shone through every step of the way. They took our menu requests seriously and helped us create a delicious custom menu, while accommodating the dietary needs of several of our guests. They designed and printed beautiful signage for the day that perfectly captured our theme. They even remembered details that we had mentioned in our meetings, but had forgotten about (naming the signature cocktails after our cats, as an example). And day of, the bartenders, servers, and other Mount Hope employees we encountered were equally kind, easy to talk to, and accommodating.
Even when we had last-minute changes, the team handled it all with grace and enthusiasm. Their ability to adapt and go with the flow made us feel so supported, allowing us to truly enjoy the process. In fact, it was so seamless that we decided to host our rehearsal dinner on-site as well, which turned out to be a fantastic decision.
Our friends and family kept commenting on how relaxed we seemed throughout the planning process, and we owe that peace of mind entirely to the incredible staff at Mount Hope. Thanks to their professionalism and warm-heartedness, we had a beautiful, fun, and unforgettable wedding that exceeded all our expectations.
We can't wait to return to Mount Hope for the Ren Faire year after year, and we wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful, unique, and easy to work with venue!
Dream Venue!
The staff at MH is simply wonderful. Brenna was with us every step of the way, and went out of her way to make sure our needs and desires were met. We chose to do both our ceremony and reception dinner in the upstairs loft area, and it was absolutely beautiful.
Another thing that sets Mount Hope apart is their onsite catering. We were able to create an entirely custom menu that fit our budget and tastes, and the quality and customization of the food was simply amazing. Not to mention, the liquors, wines, beers, and ciders that are all made on property!
Lastly, the aesthetics of the location are simply gorgeous. The interior of the barn gave the perfect inviting feel we wanted, while the grounds provided amazing and unique photos that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.
I cannot sing the praises of Mount Hope loudly enough, our wedding was everything we hoped it could be and more.
