Wonderful wedding

Amanda, you were amazingly patient and helpful throughout the beginning at the process through when Natalie took over. Natalie, I knew that we were in good hands after meeting you at the final meeting. Throughout the whole wedding day, Natalie took the time to make sure that Michael and I are OK and also my mother as the first friends in our group getting married, we didn’t know what to expect. Natalie made everything go super smooth, and we had no worries throughout the entire wedding.

Highly recommend this beautiful venue

Cannot recommend this place enough! It is beautiful, spacious, and reasonably priced. We decided to scale back our wedding around July from 175 to 25. We had a scheduled meeting with our wedding coordinator Leigh around that time and discussed our options with her. They were more than accommodating! We were able to pick a new date for the reception (10-09-21) with extended family and friends but got to keep our original date (10-10-20) to have a small ceremony. It was lovely to say the least- chairs set up socially distanced, refreshments left out, access to the bridal suite and bathrooms inside. We are so excited to have our reception with them later this year! We had our tasting this past fall and the food was absolutely delicious! Chef even came out to talk to us at the end and answered all of our questions. To sum it up- you cannot go wrong with this company! This is not their only wedding venue by the way. I have personally seen Barn on Bridge and it was beautiful as well!

The High Point absolutely was the perfect venue for our perfect wedding day! It's a gorgeous building located on beautiful grounds that feel so private. We were looking for a place that had rustic elegance and we were drawn to the simple beauty of the Bank Barn. We also had our ceremony in the historic church right next door, and that made the whole day so seamless. The coordinator, Gail Malcolm, was wonderful - super accommodating over the course of the year that we planned for the day. We live in Seattle, and she was amazing about working around our travel plans and being available via phone and email. One of the best things about the High Point is that they only have one wedding a weekend, and they give you time to set up the day before. I was able to get all of my decorations and flowers ready to go before the rehearsal, which really helped with my stress levels! At the High Point, they also have a list of approved caterers, which ended up being a huge blessing to me. Through that list, I found Serock Catering and they were incredible (plus they were familiar with the space and gave me tons of great planning tips). Another bonus was the back patio where we were able to have our cocktail hour outside. It was a gorgeous June evening and everybody loved chatting and having wine outside before the reception started!

We are so happy that we went with the High Point. It's such a unique place and the people there are so helpful and kind!

The High Point was one of many venues that I contacted but was the only one I ended up touring...we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. Gail Malcolm became the new Marketing and Event Coordinator about 6 months before my wedding and she did not skip a beat in catching up to speed with all the plans for my wedding. She and Eman Twereet were extremely helpful throughout the whole planning process and were always happy and willing to allow me to stop by the venue in order to make plans for our decor. The fact that the High Point only holds one wedding really allows them to focus on your event. Being able to set up our reception the day before was a HUGE money saver. We did not have to hire a day of coordinator because we were able to do all our decorating the day before and Gail was available during my entire event to help with anything that came up. We also were able to do our center piece floral arrangements ourselves during the day before set up time...also a HUGE money saver!
The High Point is a stunning and unique venue with a lot of history. Gail went above and beyond the day of the wedding to ensure that our event went off without a hitch. Our wedding day was truly perfect and we are so grateful for all the memories we have thanks to the High Point.

The High Point was the only venue my now husband and I actually visited - but knew it was the place for us right away. We loved the wood, high ceilings and windows over looking the lawn. During the planning, they were especially easy to work with, from the very early walk-through to the wedding day. The day-of went perfectly - we could not have been happier with how things turned out. Definitely happy with our decision and would highly recommend The High Point.

Our family had a lovely and memorable experience at The High Point, where our daughter's wedding ceremony and reception were held this past summer. We will be forever grateful. The venue is simple, yet equisite, and sits atop a soft hill overlooking beautiful Chester County.

Donna, the marketing director, was thorough and professional from the day we met her for the first tour of the property. She was sincere and thoughtful in her feedback and insights along the way. Her additional team members... Mary Ann, Molly and Eman, were a delight to work with the day of the wedding.

What we liked most about this location was their care of the property, used for worship by the parish, yet shared with the community for events such as ours. The ceremony was extremely important to the bride and groom, and The High Point was flexible to allow for the time needed -- they reserve just one wedding a weekend, which allowed us to set up the day before -- this was very helpful to the bride as she had planned many creative touches herself.

The location allows both an indoor(main room) and outdoor (lower patio) options for creative use during the event. Please consider...caterers must be approved by The High Point, and there is no oven or dishwasher/limited kitchen. Another consideration is that this is truly a DIY venue... although with that comes the blessing of being able to be unique and creative, and have an event truly personal.

We cannot thank the entire staff at The High Point enough... many blessings on your work and care of this beautiful location!

If we could give them 6 out of 5 stars we would! Their website does not do them any justice; The High Point is a beautiful venue! It is just remote enough that you don't feel like you are in the Philadelphia metro area anymore, yet it's only minutes from an assortment of hotels and the turnpike. The recently built bank barn sits on the hillside of historic church grounds and overlooks a vast wooded area. The wood interior is fantastic and requires very little decoration. Guests have great views of the surrounding hillside.

The staff is also AMAZING. Donna, the marketing director, is very professional and informative. She was a great help and very straightforward with us throughout the whole process. She ensured the proper staff would be available for our setup the day before and for the event itself. Eman, the event supervisor, was FANTASTIC. She was very courteous and professional, and looked to ensure all of our guests were having the perfect evening. There was not a detail that she overlooked and she even helped coordinate for our shuttle to arrive prior to the end of the evening so that some of our guests could get back to the hotel earlier.

Thanks to The High Point and their staff, our reception was memorable for us and all of our family and guests!

The High Point was a great alternative to your traditional hall weddings, at a very reasonable cost. Everyone was super impressed with the place and couldn't stop talking about how beautiful it was. Being able to have the cocktail hour inside and outside was also pretty cool. We even had lawn games set up during it, which the guests loved! We were also able to have our pictures done right there on their property, which was very convenient. The pictures came out gorgeous! Not only do they have acres and acres of beautiful land, they also have a historical church that we were able to get pictures in front of.

Also, Donna was super easy to work with and was always available! The place is DIY, however, she recommended awesome vendors, which made the process so much easier. She also let us come back several times to just look around, so I could come up with more decorative ideas.

If you want a wedding that people will not only always remember, but rave about constantly, pick the High Point as your venue!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
