We just had our wedding here this past Saturday and it was absolutely magical. This venue is a breath of heaven. From the magic of the pines to the estate itself, this place is superb from top to bottom. Our venue host Dean was amazing, he’s a wonderful person to work with and is amazingly easy to get along with. Not even from a wedding standpoint, but his breakfasts are out of this world! I am honestly so glad that everything worked out and we were able to go with Orchard House as our venue because I cannot for the life of me imagine a more beautiful place to get married in. Thank you so much.

After my (now) husband and I came to the difficult decision to postpone our wedding due to COVID-19, we still wanted to tie the knot on our originally scheduled day. The Orchard House partnered with a local officiant company to offer elopements during the 'quarantine'. Dean was incredibly responsive, so kind, and made our day so special. The Orchard House was well cleaned and sanitized, the pine tree grove was the perfect area for our elopement, and they even graciously hosted our pup (who accompanied us) as well. Breakfast delivered the best bacon I've ever had. I would not change one single thing about our experience at the Orchard House. It was perfect!

Our friends Don & Andrew, who own Orchard House, helped us make all of our dreams come true for our wedding day. Our ceremony was in their magical pine forest, and our reception was under a large tent on their property. They truly are a one-stop-shopping place! They handled all the rentals for our event, from the chairs in the pine forest, to the port-a-potties and sink (with real soap and water!). Don officiated our ceremony and did a great job! It was a beautiful day. Don and Andrew made our day very special!

I got married at Orchard House in May of 2009 and it couldn't have been better. The atmosphere was perfect for both our ceremony and reception and due to the picturesque landscape, our pictures turned out beautiful! I would definitely recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful landscape for their wedding or event! In addition to our wedding, I also had my baby shower at this venue. It held all of our guests perfectly and we all had a great time.

I had my rehearsal dinner at the Orchard House, and it was magnificent! The Orchard House created an atmosphere that I could not find anywhere else! It was exactly what my husband and I wanted... a beautiful, intimate setting to celebrate with my friends and family.
Thank You Orchard House!

I had my wedding here in August 2019, and it was so beautiful. The venue was everything that I wanted it to be. This place honestly could take your breathe away. Dean was very professional and was very attentive, and he makes a amazing breakfast. Dean does cater to your needs, and will work with you if you want a large wedding or a small one. Our wedding was originally 30 and ended up adding a few more people unexpectedly, and Dean worked with us. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a venue. Thank you so much Dean!

I will start off by saying the venue itself is beautiful and whimsical, however if you have anything but optimal weather leading into your wedding prepare for an incredibly stressful and unpleasant experience.

From the get go Dean was very slow to respond, at one point going over a month without responding to my messages just asking him to process our next payment on our payment schedule. This may be ok with some people, but as someone who used to plan many large events for my company, lack of communication threw up red flags for me. The week going into the wedding, and most of June had left the Orchard House yards very saturated with rain water. As we went back and forth trying to figure out the driest way to set up tents, the tent company came and set up tents in the lowest, wettest part of their entire property on Thursday, so it was shaded and even less likely to dry on Friday and Saturday, the first days of pure sunshine in a week. When we arrived on Friday afternoon to start setting up my entire family, as well as my fiancées, were completely stunned at the lack of common sense used by Dean and the rental company he uses. The tents were set up completely opposite to the last message I had sent. As a venue, you must be intelligent enough to set up tents not in the middle of a pool of mud and water rendering the tents completely useless for the wedding and act surprised when the entire wedding party is not happy. Dean on multiple occasions said he “was going to walk away in order to not say something regrettable to us”. And instead of trying to help dry out this area all day Friday he was out buying “sugar shakers” at garage sales and reading in his yard so by the time he said he would go get some woodchips to put down under the tents, the company was closed for the day and he could not pick them up until the next morning so we could do no setup until the morning of the wedding.

My family and I ended up moving all our tables into the yard, despite table and chair set up being one thing Orchard House was supposed to do. We did not use the tents at all except for about eight feet on one side of a 40x60 tent which was covered with sawdust my father purchased himself to make any part of the space usable for our catering and bar tables. My family and friends came together and we worked all morning and early afternoon to make the space beautiful and usable, but can honestly say Dean did nothing to try and help solve problems and preferred to hide in his apartment to avoid conflict, while our families came together to get creative in setup. He also made sure to charge my card, without letting me know what the final amount was and without my final authorization while we were in the driveway packing up to leave. Which isn’t legal.

I will say one antique in the house was apparently broken over the weekend which I was not aware of and for that I am sorry. But he made sure to help himself to drinks, food and cake all night and refused to even consider refunding $250 for everything that happened. Claiming he didn’t know what extra work I was talking about.

Location is beautiful, but I truly believe they need to hire an event manager if they want to continue. Not every wedding is going to be perfect weather without issue, and they are not prepared to handle anything unexpected or use commonsense to solve problems or act like professionals. Hope they figure it out.
