The best wedding venue

There truly are not enough words to express how grateful we are to Stone Mill Inn, Erica, Ken, Karen, and the entire team for giving us the wedding of our dreams.

From the very beginning, Ken and Karen made us feel so incredibly special. You can tell that Stone Mill Inn is so much more than just a wedding venue to them—it is something they genuinely love and pour their hearts into. Every interaction felt personal, thoughtful, and sincere, and they made us feel like our wedding was just as important to them as it was to us.

And Erica… where do we even begin? She was absolutely incredible. She made our wedding day completely seamless and allowed us to actually be present and enjoy every single moment. We genuinely did not have to worry about a thing. Every detail was handled, every question was answered, and everything seemed to happen effortlessly behind the scenes. Knowing Erica was there allowed us to relax, celebrate, and soak in the day with our family and friends. That is something we will forever be grateful for.

The entire staff was phenomenal. Everyone was kind, attentive, professional, and genuinely seemed happy to be part of our day. And the food was UNREAL. We received compliment after compliment from our guests about how incredible everything tasted. We have joked that Stone Mill Inn needs to open its own restaurant during the week when there aren’t weddings because we would genuinely be there all the time. It was THAT good.

Then there is the venue itself. Stone Mill Inn is simply magical. From the beautiful gardens and the woodlands to the Abbey and every little corner of the property, it truly feels like stepping into a fairy tale. There are so many breathtaking spaces that somehow make the entire day feel intimate, romantic, and completely unique. Our wedding felt like something out of a dream.

Looking back, we could not imagine having gotten married anywhere else. Stone Mill Inn gave us more than a beautiful venue—they gave us an experience and memories that we will carry with us for the rest of our lives.

To Erica, Ken, Karen, and every single member of the Stone Mill Inn team: thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Thank you for caring about us, for making us feel special, for taking care of every detail, and for giving us a wedding day that exceeded everything we could have imagined.

If you are considering Stone Mill Inn for your wedding, we truly cannot recommend them enough. Choosing them was one of the best decisions we made, and we would choose them again a thousand times over.

We will forever be grateful to the entire Stone Mill Inn family for making our wedding day so incredibly magical. 🤍

The best venue EVER

We cannot say enough wonderful things about this venue and the entire team! They went above and beyond our expectations and truly helped make our wedding day everything we had dreamed it would be and more!! From the very beginning, our coordinator, Amber, was an absolute Godsend. She was incredibly helpful, responsive, and reassuring throughout the entire planning process, always willing to answer questions, talk through details, and help us iron out any hiccups along the way. The communication was consistently excellent, and we always felt like we were in good hands. The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking and offers so many beautiful options for ceremony locations. One of my favorite things about it was that it is a private venue, meaning the entire property was ours for the day. It made the experience feel so personal and intimate, and our guests could truly enjoy the beautiful grounds without sharing the space with another event. We received endless compliments from our guests about the venue, but just as many about the food! The fact that the food is prepared in-house really shows. We had multiple guests tell us it was the best wedding food — or even some of the best food, period — that they had ever had. Everyone was so impressed, and that was something that meant so much to us. The bridal suite was also absolutely stunning. It has so much charm and was such a beautiful and comfortable space to get ready and spend the morning with our bridal party. Every little detail of the property made the day feel incredibly special. Of course, our wedding day threw us an unexpected curveball when a nor’easter rolled through, requiring some last-minute changes to our plans. Thankfully, we had already discussed backup weather plans, and the entire team handled the changes with such professionalism, flexibility, and calmness. They truly made the best of the situation and never let the weather take away from our celebration. One of the things that stood out to us most was how kind and genuinely caring every staff member was. We had several guests specifically comment on how friendly and helpful the staff were. You can truly tell that the people who work here care about what they do, take pride in their jobs, and genuinely want their couples and guests to have an amazing experience. We are so incredibly grateful that we chose this venue for our wedding. From the gorgeous property and incredible food to the wonderful staff and exceptional coordination, they made us feel supported every step of the way. We truly cannot recommend this venue and its team enough! Our wedding day was absolutely unforgettable, and we will always be grateful to everyone who helped make it so special!

Best Wedding Venue Ever!

From the first day we walked onto Stone Mill Inn’s property we felt like we were home. The owner’s Ken and Karen were so sweet and made us feel like family and you can really see how much care and time they place into their wedding venue as soon as you get there! The whole staff was so attentive the entire day (as well as the months leading up) and made us feel well taken care of especially our Day Of Coordinator Missy who really made the day feel at-ease and shoutout to Jimmy as well! The food was amazing and we are still having guests come to us saying it was the best wedding food they have ever had before! Another HUGE plus with their venue is that it is all inclusive and they set-up and tear down all of the decor for you so that’s another stress off your plate. As if that wasn’t enough, they also package everything in the cars for you at the end of the night so all you have to do is go right to your after party! We could not say enough amazing things about Stone Mill Inn but are so happy that we trusted them with our wedding day because we could not imagine having it anywhere else!

Why look anywhere else?? Stone Mill Inn is the only option in our opinion if you want to have the best wedding you could ever imagine! 💕

The Perfect Venue for Our Special Day

Our experience with Stone Mill Inn went beyond our expectations, and we are so grateful we chose it for our wedding day. From the beginning, the owners made us feel welcomed and like part of the family. Their genuine care, flexibility, and willingness to go above and beyond made the entire experience so special.

Our wedding coordinator, Erica, was absolutely wonderful. She was organized, attentive, and on top of everything leading up to our wedding, throughout the day, and afterward. She was always available to answer questions and offer guidance, which gave us so much peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our day.

The venue itself is absolutely beautiful. The gardens and grounds were stunning, and everything was clean and beautifully maintained. Our guests could not stop talking about how gorgeous the venue was—and the food was AMAZING!

Most importantly, we felt genuinely cared for throughout the entire experience. Stone Mill Inn gave us the wedding day we dreamed of, and we will always be grateful for the memories we made there. We truly could not recommend them more!

The Smiths - 8/1/2026

The very first time we toured the Stone Mill Inn, I knew it was our venue before I even got out of the car. There’s no doubt that the property is absolutely gorgeous, but it’s the people who make the experience truly unforgettable.

From our very first tour, to our tasting, rehearsal, and finally our wedding day, the Stone Mill Inn team was there with us every step of the way. Our coordinator, Amber, was simply the best. She made sure every single detail was thought of and was such an incredible help throughout the planning process, especially during the moments when we felt overwhelmed or weren’t quite sure what we wanted. She was always patient, attentive, and willing to help bring our ideas to life.

One of the things we appreciated most was how well the entire staff took care of everything on our wedding day. We never had to worry about the little details or wonder whether things were getting done. They handled everything behind the scenes so that we could simply be present and enjoy our day with our family and friends. That allowed us to truly soak in every moment of our wedding instead of spending the day worrying about logistics, and that is something we will always be grateful for.

The owners, Karen and Ken, make you feel like family from the moment you meet them. They went above and beyond to accommodate us and do everything in their power to make our vision for our wedding come to life. You can truly tell how much they care about their couples and the experience they create for them.

And the rest of the staff was just as wonderful. Everyone we interacted with was so kind, helpful, and genuinely happy for us. We had so many of our guests tell us that our wedding was one of the most beautiful weddings they had ever attended. They absolutely raved about the food, and I have to agree — everything was delicious!

Our wedding day was everything we could have hoped for, and we are so incredibly grateful that we chose the Stone Mill Inn. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or a better team to be part of such an important chapter in our lives. We will always look back on the Stone Mill Inn with so much love and gratitude, and we are truly honored to be part of the Stone Mill Inn family.

They are the BEST wedding venue!

Stone mill inn is the BEST wedding venue. They make everything so easy. Missy was a life saver the day of the wedding and helped everything go perfectly smooth. They created a beautiful wedding, easy to collaborate with on my vision, and priced well for what they delivered. The food was delicious and I got so many compliments on how it was the best wedding food they’ve had, plus they are so good with allergies. I couldn’t recommend them enough!!

Forever thankful for Stone Mill Inn

Such a beautiful venue and the friendliest staff. Did everything they could to accommodate us for the bad weather that day. The absolute best wedding food I’ve ever had, I recommend the Chilean sea bass. The staff worked around the clock to make our experience special and they are very attentive to the needs of the bride and groom. Shoutout Missy for being the best, and biggest helper of all!!

Stone Mill Inn - Wedding Venue of our Dreams

t's hard to put into words how incredible the Stone Mill Inn team is and how they truly made our June 2026 wedding dreams come true. From the very first moment we toured the venue and had the pleasure of meeting Ken and Karen, we fell in love with not only the spectacular setting and amenities, but the truly amazing people that make Stone Mill Inn everything it is. Ken and Karen have created the most beautiful setting, perfectly fit for what we envisioned our big day to be. We had the most amazing coordinator, Amber, who helped us with the planning process more than a year out. She helped us with the big and small decisions on multiple calls throughout the year and I truly never felt stressed throughout the planning process! The Abbey was the ceremony space of our dreams and Ken and the team's immaculate attention to detail in the gardens and landscaping made it feel and look truly magical. The FOOD is incredible. To have a venue that provides their own food that is actually GOOD is hard to find, and Stone Mill goes above and beyond. The tasting experience was a celebration in itself. On the day of, the service team was impeccable - we felt like royalty with our drinks constantly topped and the team checking in on us and our families! I have nothing but rave reviews for this venue and every person that made our dreams come true this day. We had many guests say that this was the best wedding they had ever been too. We couldn't be happier with our choice to getting married at Stone Mill Inn!
