Angela Sent on 12/29/2025The Most Romantic Weekend of my LIfe
I am going to try and put into words what the Manor means to us but I assure you the feeling we, and our loved ones, were left with is ethereal. From the moment I met the LTM Family, I felt welcomed, warm and cared for. They listen so intently to their couples and bring your ideas to life in a way that is dream-like. Andrew, Jackie, Ted, Janice and their staff have a genuine excitement for your day. It feels uniquely personal. Their design is unmatched, thoughtful and romantic. We felt swept away into blissful elegance. My loved ones, all 150 of them, are still talking about their space and how seamless the weekend felt. They are so incredibly thoughtful, it creates a space where we could be fully present because they had thought of every last detail. The LTM Family is invested in their couples and the couples loved ones. The staff is omnipresent and invisible all at the same time, never missing a beat. The efforts of their team to know each couple and their loved ones is unparalleled. You can see the results of those efforts in the smallest of details throughout the entire weekend. Would not find a more thoughtful team anywhere. As good of a group of listeners they are, they communicate equally as well. Chef Mike’s food is INCREDIBLE! We can’t talk about our wedding without highlighting the incredible chef who made our celebration feel even more unforgettable. The food was nothing short of spectacular—beautifully presented, full of flavor, and crafted with such obvious passion. Our guests are still raving about every course! What stood out most wasn’t just the amazing dishes, but the care behind them. The chef took the time to understand our tastes, personalize the menu, and create something that felt uniquely us. My family had a lot of restrictions when it came to food and Chef mike did not hesitate to assure us that he would accommodate with pleasure. Thank you for turning our wedding meal into an experience we will remember for the rest of our lives. It was perfect. I could go on and on about LTM and all of their personal touches, they feel like family to me. We shared laughs, tears and stories all weekend. They may not know it yet, but we will be sure to be visiting them again soon. We miss them. They also provided any and all the additional helpful information you could possibly ask for in their wedding packet from vendors and musicians, to local shopping and dining. We used many of their vendors and they all exceeded or expectation. Just magical. -Angela & Andrew -

Wedding of our dreams!
We recently hosted our wedding weekend at Lord Thompson Manor, and words truly can’t capture how magical and seamless the entire experience was. From the very beginning of the planning process to the final farewell, every detail was handled with such care, precision, and warmth. Planning with Janice, Jackie, Andrew, and Chef Mike was an absolute pleasure. Communication was always clear and prompt, and they made what could have been a stressful process feel incredibly smooth and enjoyable. Every question was answered, and every request thoughtfully considered coming together perfectly. A special thank you to Janice and Ted, the gracious hosts of both the Manor and the Cottage House. Their presence throughout the weekend made all the difference. They were not only attentive to every guest but seemed to anticipate needs before anyone even had to ask. The level of hospitality they provided is unmatched — warm, personal, and genuinely caring. The entire weekend was seamless. From welcome drinks to the rehearsal dinner, the ceremony, reception, and farewell breakfast, every moment flowed beautifully. Our guests could not stop talking about how fun, relaxing, and well-orchestrated everything was — and we felt it too! It was a weekend filled with love, laughter, joy, and a true sense of celebration. The Cottage House Spa offered such a comforting and peaceful environment for hair and makeup on the wedding day. The space was beautifully designed to feel both luxurious and relaxing, helping to ease any nerves and make the morning feel truly special. Brittany’s coordination and support throughout the weekend was invaluable—she kept everything on track with grace and calm, allowing us to be fully present and enjoy every moment. We also cannot say enough about the food and drinks— absolutely phenomenal. Chef Mike curated meals that were both elegant and comforting, perfectly suited to each event. The cocktails and beverage selections were equally excellent, and our guests raved about every bite and sip throughout the weekend. We are beyond grateful to the entire team at Lord Thompson Manor for making our wedding weekend the best experience of our lives. If you’re considering hosting your wedding here — don’t hesitate. It will be everything you dreamed of and more! With heartfelt thanks, Ben & Olivia -

Our wedding at Lord Thompson Manor was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we knew this venue was truly special. The manor is stunning — elegant, timeless, and full of charm — and it created the perfect backdrop for every part of our celebration. What truly sets Lord Thompson Manor apart, though, is the incredible team behind it. Every staff member was attentive, kind, and genuinely invested in making our wedding weekend flawless. They handled every detail seamlessly, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy the experience with our family and friends. Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the beautiful grounds, the atmosphere, and how smoothly everything flowed. We felt so cared for from start to finish, and the memories we made here will stay with us forever. If you’re looking for a wedding venue that feels intimate, elegant, and unforgettable, Lord Thompson Manor is absolutely a 5-star choice. -

The best choice I made for my wedding
LTM was the best possible place I could have selected to get married. They were accommodating, patient, kind, and so organized and careful with my big day. Pretty much anything I came up with or wanted to try, they made it happen. I would have lose my mind if it wasn’t for the amazing staff and coordinators at LTM. I don’t feel that they are just a wedding venue; they feel more like lifelong friends. I can’t recommend them enough. -

John Sent on 12/29/2025Amazing Wedding Venue
We got married at Lord Thompson Manor in May 2025, and I truly cannot say enough good things about this place and the people who run it. The venue itself is breathtaking. Every single detail is thought of, from the décor to the flow of the weekend. It’s like stepping into a dream that’s been perfectly choreographed yet still feels completely personal to you. The staff is nothing short of a dream team. They are a well-oiled machine that somehow still feels like family. I don’t think I lifted a finger all weekend. They handled everything so seamlessly that I was able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. The flowers and decor were stunning. Jackie’s eye for design is incredible. She brought my Pinterest board to life for both the wedding and our Spanish tapas-themed rehearsal dinner (a nod to our engagement in Spain). She went above and beyond. The food? Absolutely unforgettable. Chef Mike was phenomenal to work with and created inspired, flavorful dishes that our guests are still raving about. From the rehearsal dinner to the wedding feast (and I mean FEAST) to the late night snacks, every bite was perfection. Andrew was super responsive throughout the planning process. He guided us every step of the way and never got tired of our 1,000 questions.
And then there’s Ted — our family stayed at the Manor, and they still talk about how much they miss him. His attention to detail made me feel truly taken care of. He ushered us to our seats and made sure we didn’t miss dinner (a small miracle on wedding day). He even set aside a plate of appetizers for us. He didn’t miss a beat. And Janice… I don’t even know where to start. Saying goodbye to her at the end of the weekend actually hurt my heart. She was by my side the entire time, anticipating my every need. Even when that meant getting on the ground to scrub my dress before the ceremony after it got dirty during our first look. She is truly one of a kind and I can tell she cares deeply about her brides and their experience. She made my wedding so special and stress-free. When the weekend arrived, Janice told me not to worry about a single thing except having a good time and being present in the moment – they would handle the rest. And she was right. It was the most magical, low-stress, joy-filled weekend we could have imagined, and it’s all thanks to the incredible team at Lord Thompson Manor. If you’re considering this venue, book it. You will be in great hands. -

Morgan Sent on 12/28/2025Unforgettable Experience
We cannot recommend Lord Thompson Manor more if we tried. There’s few venues that you will find that allow you to have the space for the entire weekend but rehearsal, ceremony, reception, after party and day after brunch all on the same property is phenomenal. The area surrounding Lord Thompson is perfect for guests to stay/visit and the accommodations for the wedding party on site was top notch. Our guests could jnot stop raving about the manor itself, the food and the staff. We had such a magical weekend and truly cannot thank everyone enough!

This is your sign to have your wedding at LTM
We had our wedding on June 7th, 2025, at Lord Thompson Manor. I cannot express enough how you should have your wedding here. Andrew, Jackie, Janice and Ted are top tier. Janice made us feel so special and throughout the day advocated for me. When the rain stopped and i wanted pictures outside, Ted went and got a leaf blower to blow away the rain so that my dress didn’t get wet. They made the best day of our lives extra special. Our guests are still saying to us they can’t stop thinking about our wedding, that it was magical and the best wedding they’ve ever have ever gone to and I owe that all to Lord Thompson Manor. I will be eternally grateful for the way they made us and our wedding feel extra special. You are making a mistake if you do not book with Lord Thompson Manor. -

Amanda Sent on 04/18/2025So amazing!
Where do I begin?! This venue is so incredibly special as are the people who work there. I booked my wedding in December 2023 and just had it in April 2025 so I got to know the staff well. They truly go above and beyond for their couples. Surprisingly enough it snowed the morning of my wedding but I had my heart set on having the ceremony outside so they made it happen. Janice and Ted were so kind and warm to my fiancé and I and we truly will never forget that. With this venue the sky is the limit if you’re a creative person this is definitely the venue for you. Magical doesn’t even begin to cover it -
![Lexi]()
Lexi Sent on 12/31/2024Felt like a dream
Our wedding day was everything we hoped it would be (and more) thanks to the team at the Lord Thompson Manor!
What drew us to the Lord Thompson Manor (aside from the stunning grounds) was the concept of the “wedding weekend,” everything held all in one setting. Andrew and Jackie have truly perfected every aspect of the weekend, from the moment we arrived on Friday to when we left on Sunday afternoon. Now, on to the specifics…
Food:
Chef Mike is the best! He worked with us to create the exact menu selection we wanted, and was open to customizing to suit our preferences.
We had a lot of allergies at our wedding and Chef Mike perfectly handled every one of them. From making sure our celiac/gluten-free guests had cupcakes that matched our wedding cake flavor to making delicious vegan breakfasts/lunches/dinners/desserts for our maid of honor and one of our groomsmen, the people with allergies did NOT get the short end of the stick! I had guests coming up to me thanking me for having a dessert for them because they’re used to not getting any at weddings! As someone who constantly watches my sister have to eat nothing but dressing-less garden salad or bland veggie burgers at restaurants, it was so awesome to see all the options she got to eat as a vegan all weekend. That vegan chocolate bread Chef Mike made for her for breakfast on the wedding morning… wow!
A lot of our guests told us that we had the best wedding food they’d ever had. From the two large appetizer tables to the incredible passed apps (my favorite part!) to the well-portioned plated meals, there was nothing left to be desired by the time dancing started! And the after-party food options hit the spot! Those chocolate chip cookies were unbelievable.
Decor:
Truth be told, I was all over the place with what I wanted aesthetically. After our food tasting, Jackie worked with my family, pulling candlesticks, votives, vases, napkin holders, and such until it was exactly what we wanted. And for flowers, I gave hardly any direction but Jackie practically read my mind because it was even better than I pictured. I still think about how perfect our altar looked – thank you for taking hours to make it look so stunning, Ted!
Something really special about the Manor: if you choose to use them for design (which I HIGHLY recommend you do), they go all out with candles, pillows, throw blankets, picture frames, and more – not just flowers. The whole Manor felt perfectly curated for our day.
Organization/Day-Of Experience:
I’m loosely quoting Jackie here – running a wedding day is like putting on a play, with everything timed out perfectly and everything coming together just right. In this case, Janice and Ted were the best “stage managers” we could have hoped for, doing everything possible to ensure we stayed within our exact time frames and making sure we were never stressed.
The KISS Spa was such an idyllic place for the bridesmaids, mothers, and I to get ready. The men loved hanging downstairs in the billiards room – one of the groomsmen even brought his X-Box and connected it to the downstairs TV while they killed time, LOL.
The first look… I don’t want to reveal much because I want future brides and grooms to be surprised, but this was such a special moment.
The ceremony was perfectly crafted, and the LTM team was there with champagne in hand so we could go right into toasts. This was something different from any other wedding we’ve been to – toasts happen right after the ceremony. I personally loved this, and I think my sister, dad, and brother-in-law were relieved to get public speaking out of the way so they could relax the rest of the evening!
There’s so much to say, but I’d like to note some of the small details that made such a difference. Because of some post-ceremony photos and chatting with so many guests during the cocktail hour, we didn’t grab many passed apps during cocktail hour. So my husband and I were so delighted when we sat down for dinner and Ted handed us a plate of two of each passed app! Such a great idea!
Every single staff member was amazing and so attentive. The bartenders were so friendly and the servers had food service down to a science!
Obviously the wedding day was the highlight, but the rehearsal dinner and day-after brunch were so much fun and perfect ways to start/end the weekend. It was so cool to see the conservatory transformed for our intimate rehearsal dinner/welcome party, then again for the wedding day, and again for our 100+ guest brunch!
My husband and I seriously wish we could live this entire weekend all over again – it was such a dream. I’m hoping in the future I can revisit the Lord Thompson Manor again as a guest to get a whole different experience at this beautiful place!
Thank you so much to Jackie, Andrew, Chef Mike, Janice, Ted, and everyone else who makes the Lord Thompson Manor such a picturesque place!

BOOK THEM! Lord Thompson Manor is a diamond in the rough. The venue and team was nothing short of incredible and supportive throughout the entire planning process and beyond. I had a vision of unique and memorable wedding and Lord Thompson delivered just that. I have family and friends that said its the best wedding they’ve ever been to and talked about it for months to come. It’s hard to (specifically RAVING about the food and the vibes). It’s hard to put into words the magic and ambiance Lord Thompson encapsulates; you have to exeperience it yourself. If your on the fence, BOOK IT -

August 2024 Wedding
Jackie, Andrew, Ted, Janice, Chef Mike, and the entire LTM crew,
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for the most perfect wedding weekend that we will cherish forever. The weekend was everything we dreamed of and more, and it would not have been possible without you all! There are truly not enough words to properly express our gratitude! We did not want the typical ballroom wedding venue. LTM allowed us to have the most unique/elegant/timeless wedding with an emphasis on good food and drinks. It was a dream come true. We are beyond appreciative! Even with 190 guests, everything ran like a well-oiled machine! Thank you for handling a little bit of chaos with poise 😊 You truly brought my vision to life, and it was perfect. We received so many compliments on the venue, the food, and the staff. Our guests were blown away. We will truly cherish those memories forever and will always hold a special place for LTM in our hearts. We love you!! -

Amanda Sent on 12/17/2024Best wedding decision we made besides marrying each other!
From the minute we visited Lord Thompson Manor, we knew we wanted to get married there. We wanted our wedding to not feel rushed and enjoy every minute celebrating with friends and family. LTM makes your wedding feel like the most important event they've ever hosted. Being able to have all of the weekend events in one place made everything so fluid and allowed us more time to soak in all of the joy we were surrounded by. We got married this fall and the venue at that time of the year is absolutely stunning! We could go on and on about how amazing the staff was...so we will! Andrew and Jackie go above and beyond to bring your vision to life. Ted, Janice, and Brittany think of every detail and don't let you do anything except enjoy your wedding weekend. Chef Mike is so kind and talented; people will not stop raving about the food (both quality and quantity). Every single staff member was so polite and helpful, and we received countless comments from guests saying so. Our wedding day was truly the best day and thanks to LTM, we felt so at ease and were able to savor every little moment! -

Our Dream Wedding in Midsummer
My husband and I had the wedding of our dreams this past July at Lord Thompson Manor. From the moment we stepped foot on our tour of the venue in December of 2022 we could tell that the manor was in a different class than the other venues we toured. While we fell in love with the gorgeous Italianate gilded age manor property, we were especially charmed by the personal touch and attention to detail that Andrew, Jackie, Ted, Janice, and the entire team at LTM operate with. Throughout the year and a half planning our wedding and the wedding day itself they made us feel like we were the only couple they were working with. No request was too silly or big for the team at LTM - if they could make it happen, they would. Also, a special recognition to Chef Mike as well, who worked with us to create the ideal menu for our guests (steak and shrimp for our main course!!!). We were pleasantly surprised about his ability to create delicious alternatives for our dairy and gluten free guests. Being dairy free myself, I absolutely loved the dairy free strawberry shortcake he made for me for our rehearsal dinner. The wedding weekend unfolded without a hitch. Foremost, Jackie designed our flower arrangements for the wedding, and she absolutely nailed what we were looking for. She is a true creative and it was an inspiration to get to work with her to bring our vision to life. Ted and Janice were there every step of the way to ensure my husband, and I had everything we needed and that the wedding kept to the schedule. We truly felt so special the whole weekend and that the team genuinely cared that we had the best weekend. Many of our guests remarked that the food, staff, and elegance of LTM was one of the best weddings that they had been to. The accommodations were comfortable, and we loved being able to stay at the property on our wedding night. We only wish we could do it all again. -

The Lord Thompson Manor team made our wedding day feel like straight out of fairytale book. We are still in awe of how amazing they were and how beautiful everything was. We have received endless amounts of compliments about the wedding and how amazing of a job they did. We truly owe everything to Lord Thompson Manor team for making our wedding of our dreams come true. We cannot thank them enough for going above and beyond. They are truly amazing at what they do and you will not be disappointed if you book the Lord Thompson Manor for your special day! -

I got married at Lord Thompson Manor this past summer and had a 10/10 experience. Jackie, Janice, Ted, Chef Mike and Andrew are an incredible, detail oriented, kind, and organized team. From day one, they were dedicated to making sure our wedding was perfect, and the end result was incredible. From stunning decor and a beautiful meal at our rehearsal dinner to the perfect ceremony flowers and dinner and after party set up, they truly thought through every detail. LTM is a unique wedding weekend experience for everyone - you won’t regret having your wedding here! -

We had our dream wedding
If you are on the fence about having your wedding at Lord Thompson Manor do yourself a favor, book it. I cannot rave about them enough. Our wedding was in October and our guests are still raving about it. Ted and Janice are absolutely incredible. They literally know what you are going to need before you do. My sister brought my mom’s ashes to our wedding and Janice took the most care walking them to put them on the front chair for her and then bringing them up to my room as soon as the ceremony ended. Jackie created the perfect aesthetic. I sent her a few Pinterest photos and somehow, they became reality. Chef Mike helped us to create the perfect menu and even included our favorite donuts from our favorite donut shop in Providence. Andrew made sure everything was organized down to the tiniest detail. You literally don’t have to do anything other than book them and have the best weekend ever. -

We had our wedding in November 2023 and simply cannot give enough praise to Lord Thompson Manor! We went full Black Tie complete with a whisky tasting and cigar bar and our guests could not stop raving about the incredible moody manor atmosphere. Many complimented us that it was 'the best wedding they'd ever been to' which was so fulfilling after all the work we put into the planning process -

Jackie Sent on 11/27/2023Weekend Wedding Dream
From beginning to end, Andrew, Jackie, Janice and Ted made our wedding a DREAM.
My husband Kai and I always envisioned a "weekend wedding" after experiencing our friends' wedding abroad. After thinking we would never be able to have that same vibe, we stumbled upon LTM, and we are SO lucky we did.
Lord Thompson is not only a gorgeous venue - surrounded by greenery and elegance - but the people that work there make the venue exquisite.
As NYC foodies, Chef Mike made us feel like we were at an incredible Michelin starred restaurant the entire weekend (with the added and very important touch of also being made to feel at home by him and his team).
Janice and Ted single handedly made the wedding weekend entirely stress-free - allowing us to relax and knowing very well they had it all together. The two seamlessly worked together the entire weekend allowing Kai and I to do what no bride and groom are ever allowed to do... enjoy their ENTIRE wedding and EAT! From planning, hosting, and behind-the-scenes shenanigans that we later learned from friends, this team single handedly made our wedding not only be perfect, but go beyond our wildest imaginations.
Andrew and Jackie have assembled a world-class team to make your wedding unforgettable, and there are not enough words to describe how special this venue is to us.
In our opinion, LTM is the only place that combines beauty, exceptional cuisine, top-notch professionalism, and a genuine passion for what they do.
We were SO sad when our wedding came to an end because of the new friends and family that weekend gave us. We love you all and will visit very soon!
Love,
Jackie and Kai -

The most magical venue
Truly cannot say enough incredible things about this venue!!! Andrew, Jackie, Janice and Ted are a dream team. The small details they all pay attention to led to a smooth and seemingly effortless wedding weekend for us.
When we visited other wedding venues, we had a laundry list of questions to ensure everything went the way we envisioned. When we first visited LTM, that mental list quickly disappeared as Andrew answered questions before we were even able to ask them. They took so much stress out of the planning process. Every time I had a question the team was more than willing to be available for a call to ensure we were all on the same page. Because of the attention to detail ahead of time, we truly were able to let go and enjoy every single moment once our wedding finally happened. From check in on Friday to the conclusion of breakfast on Sunday, we had smiles on our faces and happy tears in our eyes. Everything completely exceeded our expectations. It ended up raining the day of and the ease at which they set up everything to be inside so quickly is something we'll never forget.
Andrew holds so much patience and professionalism while figuring out financial details through the very end.
Jackie covers the florals and decor and she truly brought our vision to life and more. Even the decor at the rehearsal dinner was the perfect touch on top of everything else.
Janice hosts at the Cottage House and goes above and beyond for the bride. She was such a calming presence in the midst of so much adrenaline, nervousness, and chaos.
Ted brings so much magic to the weekend with his infectious energy as the host at the Manor.
The food was absolutely incredible and Chef Mike is there to help every step of the way to ensure you're getting the best possible options for your guests. He is so organized and helpful and amazing at his art of food. We had multiple guests comment that it was the best wedding food they had ever had.
We felt like the most special people in the world during our wedding weekend at LTM and felt like nothing else mattered to them. It was truly the best experience of our lives!!

The Wedding of my Dreams
Where do I begin? The whole LTM team made sure my entire wedding wknd was not only stress free, but also a perfect depiction of a vision I had in my head of what my wedding would be like. To say I am thankful for this is an understatement. We spend years dreaming of our wedding, imagining what it will look like, asking for things we aren't sure are achievable. I had about 1,000 of these details in my head, and LTM did NOT miss a single mark. It was unbelievable and I am quite literally in shock one month later. From the stunning decor, to the magnificent food- the wknd was one no one will never forget. From the moment we pulled up to the manor for our 1st tour appt with Andrew, I knew we had found the venue of our dreams. Furthermore after walking in the front door, you immediately pick up an energy that I had never felt anywhere else. It was warm, cozy, familiar, and it felt like home. I wanted everyone I knew to see this spectacular hidden gem of the earth we had found. Andrew was so thorough & concise and just knows everything there is to know about how to host the perfect wedding. Then the ever so talented Jackie, the photos of her work online had my jaw on the ground, I was so excited to finally meet her. Her extensive and impressive collection of dinnerware, decor, linens, and more can give anyone a beautiful event. The cottage, which is a space you can only dream you will be lucky enough to get ready in on your wedding day- is managed by Janice, I remember talking to her on my tour about everything to expect the wknd, how the morning of getting ready would go, and heard her devotion to making her brides happy. She brought me to tears that day already knowing we would become super close and feeling relieved to know I would have her by my side from day 1. Ted, is also fantastic- his smile lights up the room. He has the voice of an angel and a heart of gold. I could never imagine the wedding planning process to be so fun seeing what some of my friends had gone through. I would talk with the team all the time, we really built a lovely friendship throughout the process. Jackie and Janice were always VERY on top of my details and plans. Whatever advice or crazy requests I had they were there to help me figure out. Before I knew it, it was 1 year into the planning process and time for our tasting! They went above and beyond we had the best day seeing our table decor for the first time which was PERFECTION! It was an exact replica of all of the inspo photos I had shared before, so unique. The tasing was the first time we met Chef Mike, but we had been talking for weeks prior about a bunch of crazy requests I had for my wedding weekend- which you wont be surprised to read were ALL executed beyond perfection once again on the weekend. This consisted of a live hand piped cannoli and Napoleon bar, a live hot pasta chafing station, an Italian inspired interactive charcuterie table, a potato latke station, a NY bagel bar, and more!!! Mike and his team absolutely killed it and ALL of my guests said it was BY FAR the best event food they had ever had. Moving into decor and florals, I loved how the manor had different vibes depending which part of the property you were in, and I wanted to capture that mysterious excitement for my guests with how I decorated each space. My inspo for the rehearsal was Positano Romance, and Jackie literally transposed the Amalfi Coast into the outdoor area of the manor. MULTIPLE guests came up to us to tell us the felt like they were in Italy, it was spectacular, quite literally amazing. The side garden felt like a fairytale to me, my Inspo for this space was Alice in Wonderland, low and behold once again the mark was hit! In the dining rooms I wanted romance and elegance, guess what? CHECK! Candles everywhere, soft florals, you could feel the love no matter which dining room you walked into. The party turned up after dinner and we danced past 12am! Brunch sunday was the perfect send off and it was hard to leave, but it was see you later, not goodbye for me and this group! We will be back!!! -

Thank You Lord Thompson Manor!
Back in 2021, we came to view Lord Thompson Manor as our first wedding venue. Afterwards, we only went to one other venue, and decided that there were no more that we wanted to go see. Lord Thompson Manor was the one for us. We loved the uniqueness of Lord Thompson Manor, because we are not ballroom people! We are thrilled with our decision and wish we could relive the weekend over and over. Everything was absolutely perfect. Everyone within the Lord Thompson Manor staff was so accommodating and beyond caring and kind. The staff truly made us feel like we were family. It was so hard to leave on that Sunday! The attention to detail was immaculate and hasn't gone unnoticed. Many friends and family members have taken the time to reach out to us and our parents letting us know how Lord Thompson Manor was the most beautiful venue and how it was the best wedding they have ever been to. Jackie will take your vision, and make it a reality. Ted and Janice will make you feel like family and will make sure that everyone is okay and has everything they need. Andrew will answer any and all questions you have, and takes the time to explain everything you need to know. What a spectacular venue! Thank you again so much to everyone at Lord Thompson Manor! We are forever grateful for the amount of work and care you put into every single wedding that you have there. Thank you so much! -

Kate Sent on 10/23/2022If I could give LTM 10 stars, I would
It's difficult for me to categorize LTM as a “venue” because it truly is an overall experience. They have perfected the wedding weekend idea. It was so fun/convenient to have our closest family and friends hang out at a single location for the whole weekend (from Rehearsal Dinner to Sunday Breakfast). Huge plus - the Cottage House has an onsite spa where all of the bridesmaids get ready; no need to worry about transporting people early in the morning for hair/makeup.
Aesthetically, the Manor is STUNNING, elegant, yet has such a cozy and warm feel from the dark wood-paneled walls and the fireplaces. The ceremony and outdoor spaces are beautifully landscaped and covered in cabanas, lounge furniture, fire pits, and yard games. The Cottage House is so well-decorated in a neutral palette; perfect for getting ready photos.
But aside from the location itself, the true magic is the team that runs the operation. I was an out-of-state bride and the LTM team made the planning process so simple and easy and the wedding day went by seamlessly. Everyone that works there (the owners, the coordinators, the waitstaff, the bartenders, etc.) is accommodating, attentive and they take the utmost care of their couples and families from the initial meeting to check-out on Sunday. They treated us like family and made the Manor feel like our home for the weekend, which is truly unique from a standard wedding venue. The staff goes above and beyond on EVERY DETAIL and they are proactive to help…e.g., Janice printed a last minute menu customization for one of our guests; My MOH’s dress strap broke as we were heading to the ceremony, and within a matter of seconds, Janice sewed it back on; Jackie went above and beyond and helped one of the bridesmaids get to the airport (because her ride had fallen through) the day we were all checking out…the list goes on. Know that if you book LTM, nothing will go wrong…seriously. They are wedding experts, they have seen it all and they know their venue inside and out. I truly believe that there isn’t a problem that could not be fixed on the fly.
Andrew makes the planning process easy and clear to understand. If you like whiskey, add the whiskey tasting bar! Andrew hosts it and it was the most professional whiskey tasting set-up I have ever seen. A huge hit with our guests!
Jackie has such a creative eye. She put together the most stunning florals and decor and provided so much guidance during planning process. I knew I could trust her to bring my vision to life.
Janice and Ted are masters at the weekend coordination and are just the most kind, caring people that you would want to have by your side on your wedding day. As a bride, I felt so secure knowing that Janice and Ted would tell us where we needed to be and when; everything was on schedule.
Chef Mike’s food is hands-down incredible and he serves plenty of amazing options that our guests loved. All of the weekend meals were so memorable. Chef Mike was extremely easy to work with on any customizations we requested and takes food allergies/dietary restrictions very seriously. Regarding the bar/drink options - amazing. If you love espresso martinis, you will love LTM’s bartenders :)
If you are considering LTM, take a tour; you will not be disappointed. Pictures do not do it justice and you have to meet the team to really understand what makes this place so special. My only wish is that we could have stayed longer. -

Ok so, reviews are a formal assessment of something using the most descriptive words you can think of to express your experience with a place, product, or person. Therefore, I truly don’t know how to write this review of Lord Thompson Manor because the venue, the staff, and ambiance left me and my entire family SPEECHLESS.
The only word I can think of to describe our entire wedding planning process as well as the wedding weekend is PERFECT. Let me tell you LTM could have a space in the dictionary under “wedding geniuses.” Choosing this venue was one of the best decisions my husband and I made. The second we set foot in this venue for our tour we instantly felt at home. We knew right away that LTM was our venue. Not only because it is beautiful but we felt the most amazing vibe from Andrew and the rest of the staff. They know what type of place they run and they couldn’t be more excited to share it with you.
The one complaint I have is that we couldn’t stay longer because I would have, haha. We did not want to leave. You won't want to either.
DO NOT hesitate to go on a tour of this venue. It was just pure class from start to finish. The PERFECT wedding venue.
Thank you Lord Thompson Manor!!! -

Elizabeth Sent on 09/04/2018I'm not sure any review can do this venue and staff justice, not only is the actual venue stunning, the staff accommodates every need, detail, guest, vendor and vision for an entire weekend. Having the capacity to stay at the manor and cottage house, host the rehearsal and Sunday brunch at the same location and provide gorgeous florals throughout as well as catering courtesy of the amazing Chef Mike as well as hair and makeup by Pricilla makes this venue outshine any other.
We cannot thank Jackie, Andrew, Ted, Kate, Danielle, Chef Mike and Pricilla enough for an absolutely incredible experience. They allowed us to really enjoy every minute of the weekend. This was more than we could have ever dreamed of and cannot say enough about the entire staff who put our wedding together flawlessly.
A special thank you to Ted who is beyond impressive, knowledgeable and goes above and beyond, even creating our floral arch himself, while showing such hospitality to every single guest. Highly, highly recommend.

Laura Sent on 05/16/2018A magical experience that just can not be described! Excellent Atmosphere, Amazing Staff, Gourmet Food, just a one stop venue with a floral designer who will make the manor glow with excellence. The most knowledgeable planners out there. I can not rave enough about how special everyone made us feel and how you end up leaving as family. The grounds are gorgeous- wonderful for pictures. To this day, guests are raving about how fantastic our wedding day was. My best friend said it best, "well I might as well decline every wedding I am invited to from now on because nothing could top this!" Pure perfection!
