    For your Fairytale Wedding

    When we found a castle nestled in the woods of Reading, PA, we knew this was the place for us. The castle was gorgeous and unique, and the outdoor ceremony space was beautiful. Everything was on site and in one package; the getting-ready rooms, the ceremony space, the cocktail hour, the reception space, the food, and the drinks were all provided by Stokesay. They even had the option of serving us food in our getting-ready rooms. Working with Jess Tremblay, one of the coordinators at Stokesay, was a breeze, and her experience was absolutely appreciated as we drew closer to our wedding day. She was extremely responsive and always had quick answers to our questions. Unfortunately, the weather required us to have our ceremony indoors, but Jess and the Stokesay team transitioned smoothly and without any work required from us. They worked well with our vendors and we couldn't ask for
    anything more. The food by Chef Willie was amazing and the bar and bartenders were great as well. Our cake was custom made by Sharon and was delicious! Every member of the staff seemed dedicated to making sure our day went off without a hitch. We couldn't be more grateful for Jess and the team at Stokesay for their work, and we will always have a special place in our hearts for that castle in the woods.

    Stokesay Castle's reply:

    Thank you for these kind words! We are so happy you and Jonathan enjoyed your special day, and that you chose us to be a part of it. We wish you a lifetime of happiness together, and hope to see you here again soon!

    Amazing Venue

    Amazing Wedding Venue, we just had our wedding there over the past weekend, 9.14.19, Alexis Blatt was our go to and she is on point!! Everything went off without a hitch and we had an absolute blast! Our Tea Ceremony was earlier in the day and was perfect as well. All the food was amazing, people are still talking about how delicious the risotto bar was and the sea bass, and it now Wednesday!! Decor was great and my vision just came to life. if there were any issues, i didn't even know. My husband and I were fed and given drinks and everything was taken care of for us, there was no hassle. I was so happy with using Stokesay's Castle, we will definitely, be back for dinner soon, and will plan another event again! Everything was PERFECT!!!!
