    The Perfect Wedding Venue!

    A beautiful venue that had everything we wanted and needed for our wedding day! Allory, Jess and staff were all great to work with and were extremely helpful with everything leading up to and on the day of our wedding. They paid great attention to detail and went above and beyond to make our day special for us! They were also so much fun to work and spend time with, and we appreciate all of the stories and laughs. Would 1000% recommend this venue to anyone looking to get married in the Lancaster area!

    Fantastic Venue and Staff

    I don't even know where to begin. Jess and Allory were nothing short of amazing throughout the entire planning process. They were super responsive to our emails, always happy to help, and gave us ideas we didn't even know were possible that made our day even more magical. Their full coordination upgrade was well worth it for the ease of wedding day and all of their staff were so nice and helpful. They even went above and beyond after our wedding day to ensure we had all of our items back and that we were pleased with how the day went! This is a wonderful venue with an even more fantastic staff.

    Overall WONDERFUL experience!

    My husband and I had a fabulous experience with Melhorn Manor from day 1 through following our wedding day. The staff was all super kind, helpful, and thorough, making sure that absolutely everything was taken care of so we could truly enjoy our day! Not to mention how gorgeous the property is, everyone loved it! Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a rustic and elegant feel for their wedding, or any event really!!

    Wedding venue review

    I had the pleasure of hosting my wedding at Melhorn Manor in May of 2024, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The team went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect.
    Leading up to the wedding, Jessica was incredibly supportive, anticipating needs and providing guidance on everything from layout options to rain plans. She truly understood our vision and made sure nothing was overlooked.
    On the wedding day, the venue was beautifully prepared and created an elegant, welcoming atmosphere. The staff was attentive and handled any issues seamlessly, allowing us to enjoy the day without worry. The venue also offers plenty of stunning photo opportunities, both indoors and out, and is a perfect backup for indoor ceremonies in case of bad weather. When rain hit unexpectedly, the staff quickly adjusted the layout, ensuring everything went smoothly.
    Our guests were equally impressed with the service and attention they received. Overall, choosing Melhorn Manor and working with Jessica and Allory was one of the best decisions we made. Their professionalism and care made our day unforgettable, and I highly recommend Melhorn Manor for anyone looking for a memorable wedding experience.

    The best venue and vendors you will find!

    I cannot speak highly enough of Jess and Allory Melhorn. They are so personable and helpful throughout the ENTIRE process - not just the month before! Their venue is just beautiful. You get so much space for the wedding between the 3 barns. I wouldn’t look anywhere else - contact them right now!

    Dream Come True!

    Talk about detailed! The team over at Melhorn Manor was tremendous in helping us to consider every detail that mattered on our special day. They were thoughtful, meticulous and so, so encouraging. Chip and I felt so taken care of, and so secure with our choice as the months continued on throughout our engagement. As is typical in Pennsylvania, we thought it might rain - luckily Melhorn Manor had a wonderful backup location that was just as beautiful as the outdoor courtyard we had originally wanted to leverage. Luckily, with breaks in the day we got some AMAZING shots outside - especially with Melhorn’s newest Water Feature! Absolutely Gorgeous! Everything about this venue is exactly what you’d want in Central PA - easy to locate, gorgeous indoor romantic feel, amazing outdoor greenery; floral; and water features. And plenty of parking! We even got in our Sparkler send off! The guests loved this location and took advantage of all that the surrounding area has to offer, and the bridal party also took advantage of the local (like 400 feet away) Air BnB’s the Roost on the Run and Nest on the Run for their guest welcome reception and general bridal party shenanigans (highly recommend!) We can’t recommend Melhorn more highly to any and all couples looking for the best Wedding Venue in Central PA!

    A place your guests will talk about for months!

    I had my wedding here in October of 2022 and it was more than I could have ever dreamed it would be. The Melhorns are FANTASTIC to work with. From the moment we met them we knew we wanted to get married on their property. They are so kind and knowledgeable and Jess was on top of the event planning with answers to every and any questions that we had. There are so many spots throughout the venue for pictures both inside and outside. We also had 20 or so people getting ready there day of and it was so comfortable and spacious for us all (our hair and makeup was very happy to have the space). I told them when it was over that I wish we could have an event there every year because of how enjoyable our experience was. If you have the chance to get married here-book ASAP!!

    Amazing hands down

    Melhorn Manor, where do I begin, You guys are just amazing at what you do! The venue is absolutely beautiful and has everything! You have been there for us every step of the way, even helping us reach out to other vendors and the late night text messages back and forth. Melhorn Manor is LGBTQ+ friendly, and I would recommend 110%.

    Best Wedding Venue Ever!!!!!

    My husband and I got married at Melhorn Manor on January 7th, 2023. We had our ceremony and reception at their location. Not only were Jess and Allory the most organized, nice, and welcoming people, but they know exactly how to run a wedding venue. They have great communication. They make sure that your day runs smoothy. They help repurpose decorations from the ceremony to the reception. They are AMAZING. I would hightly recommend having your wedding or event at Melhorn Manor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    An Absolute Joy

    Allory and Jess were an absolute joy to work with. Not only was the venue beautiful but the people running it and their staff genuinely cared about us and our wants and needs for our special day. Their communication and help throughout the whole planning process was amazing and they truly helped us have the most special day. Everything went off seamlessly and we didn’t have to worry about anything. We will continue to recommend this venue to all the engaged couples we know!

    Aug 18, 2022

    The Melhorn's do not disappoint. Starting from the time we met Allory and Jessica to the end of our wedding night we could not have asked for kinder people. They are both incredibly patient, nice, and smart. They have been in this role for many years now and it is a wonderful feeling to know you can trust them with one of the most important days ever. I would book with Jessica and Allory 1,000 times over if possible. You will not regret it one bit.

    The venue itself is beautiful. So many wonderful areas for portraits, cocktail hour, ceremony, etc. No matter what weather happens on your day you will not be upset.

    The worst part of booking with such wonderful people and venue is realizing that after the wedding day has come to end end, so has your planning. I have had the pleasure of chatting here and there with Jess post wedding, but no one tells you about the void you feel after spending a year or more with your vendors. I hope to be back with my husband to say "Hi" when it's near our anniversary.

    Do you and your future partner a favor, and book with Melhorn Manor! You can thank me later :)

    100% recommend

    My wife and I got married at Melhorn Manor this past September, and the whole entire process was incredible. Jess and Allory were so kind, accommodating, and understanding. We booked with them just under 2 years before the actual date, and they kept communication open the entire time with check-Ins and updates right up to the day of the wedding. The day of, they were on site and ready to help us with whatever we needed. They are just kind and welcoming people at the heart of it all, and all of our guest felt so at home and welcomed. I will forever recommend Melhorn Manor, not only because it is a beautiful, elegant venue, but also because the venue is owned by genuinely good people!!!

    Absolutely beautiful

    Ryan and I are so incredibly happy we picked this venue. This was only our second venue that we looked at and we both looked at each other and knew that this is where we wanted to spend such an important day in our lives. Jess and Allory were so amazing and made everything go so flawlessly! It made our day just that more special. I can not recommend this venue more, not just because of how beautiful it is, but because Jess & Allory make you feel like family and really take care of you. Thank you guys so much for the most beautiful day that I will never ever forget!

    June 25th 2022 wedding!

    Let me start by saying of your thinking about booking The Melhorn family do it. We searched a few other wedding venues and they by far offered way more for hell of a price. You definitely get your bang for your buck with them. Jess and Allroy are absolutely the best wedding venue owners I’ve ever met. There is no doubt in my mind that without the help of those two out day wouldn’t have gone as well as it did. They made you feel like part of their Melhorn family before your actual day. Jess answered every question we could possibly think of leading up to and on the wedding day. They were the upmost professional with all the wedding guests. They helped whoever needed help and directed everyone from the ceremony to cocktail hour without a hitch. The vendors they recommend are fantastic as well. Definitely stick to the list of vendors they give you because you definitely won’t regret it. It was a very hot June day but they made sure everyone in the wedding party and guest were properly hydrated the whole time. Just when you think they can’t blow your mind with hospitality they blow your expectations out the water. I recommend Melhorn Manor to any newly engaged couples in my friend group because they are absolutely the best!

    Gorgeous, gracious, authentic

    My husband and I are incredibly grateful for the Melhorn Family hosting such a perfect wedding venue where we were able to have the large wedding we wanted, including all of our most precious family and friends, for reasonable cost. While we did plan for a few decorations and some flowers, we were free from stress of how we would make the space look nice on the wedding day, because every space, indoor and outdoor, is authentically gorgeous just as it is. Our guests still mention the "Wow" as they walked through the door to the reception. The entire venue feels authentic. It does not feel like trappings pulled together that largely look out of place as many venues these days do, but rather thoughtful historic preservation with just the right amount of modern amenities. It must not go without mentioning that Jess and Allory were the most gracious, kind hosts who were wonderful to work with from beginning to end. They gave my husband and me such a great gift in hosting our wedding at their venue, a gorgeous, stress free day with our loved ones.

    Amazing venue, even better people

    We found Melhorn through our wedding planner. It was only the second venue we toured but once we were done, we kne it was the one. Allory met with us during our initial tour and was just the kindest, most patient. He really helped us envision ourself at the venue on our wedding day. Jess had also been very kind, and bring a very refreshing energy to the whole wedding process. I cannot say enough good things about Allory and Jess. The venue itself is beautiful, lots of space, plenty of options. Lends a very great scene for photos and memories that we'll cherish forever. Allory and Jess, and Melhorn Manor is highly recommended by us.

    Best venue!

    We got married at Melhorn Manor on New Years Day! The wedding was absolutely gorgeous! We were still hearing from guests and loved ones about the stunning venue weeks after the wedding took place! Jess and Allory are sweet as can be! They are extremely helpful and go above and beyond to make your day special! Every little detail was planned so nicely! We couldn’t thank the Melhorn family. Enough for letting us use their stunning spaces for our wedding! It will absolutely be an unforgettable day!

    Amazing venue !

    Two years ago, my husband and I attended Melhorn's open house and fell in love. The fact that Jess and Allory put on such an event shows how much they care about their couples. From start to finish we were blown away with Melhorn. I loved all of the options we had on their property. I was someone who didn't want a room flip and Melhorn gives you options for your ceremony location which worked perfectly for us. Every space they have to offer is drop dead gorgeous. Jess is so amazing with keeping to a timeline and thinking of every little detail. Being a type A planner, I thought I had everything figured out. Jess was able to see the things I forgot and helped problem solve. Jess and Allory both ensured our day went as smooth as possible which allowed us to enjoy our special day. I can't say enough positive things about Melhorn. Let's do it all again !

    Melhorn Manor Review

    We absolutely loved having our wedding reception at Melhorn Manor,. From the minute we met Jess & Allory we knew it was the right place for us. They were so helpful whenever we had any questions with planning our day. It Is such a beautiful setting, from the stables which provided an amazing space for our cocktail hour to the ballroom with its gorgeous woodwork & chandeliers. The bridal suite and the man cave are fantastic touches that make getting ready during the day of a blast! We could not be happier and will always be thankful that we were able to celebrate our wedding day at Melhorn Manor.

    Fantastic!

    Melhorn Manor hosted my dream wedding! Jess and Allory were the best to work with. Super detail oriented, responsive, and organized. They made sure that every single detail, down to my husbands OCD of linen choices, was hammered out so that our day could be completely worry free. We received countless complements about how beautiful the venue was! I’d get married there again and again!

    Exceeded all of our expectations!

    From our first visit to Melhorn Manor to our wedding day, the staff couldn't have been more helpful. Allory and Jessica made us feel like friends rather than just a customer. They were there for us every step of the way. As a bride I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful venue. The bridal suite took my breath away and my husband loved the mancave. We highly recommend Melhorn Manor to any future couples.

    We are so happy we chose Melhorn!

    Jess and Allory were absolutely fantastic from start to finish! We fell in love with the venue from our first visit. Their large property offers so many options for different sizes of weddings, and both the indoor and outdoor portions are beautiful. I spent a lot of time over the phone with Jess as she helped me map out our day. She was always extremely helpful and accommodating no matter how many times I reached with endless questions. Jess even helped us solve our final big wedding stressor- choosing a signature cocktail drink. After failing to pick something while bar-hopping, Jess offered to whip up a few options during our table meeting, and made the perfect drink for us! On the day of our wedding, Jess and Allory were present and available to oversee our event and help us with anything we needed. They helped us transform their gorgeous property into the wedding of our dreams. We often tell people how grateful we are that we booked with Melhorn. Jess and Allory care deeply about their venue and their weddings, and it shows through in their dedication and care. Thank you again! We couldn't be happier!

    The Venue of Our Dreams

    My husband and I had our wedding this October at Melhorn Manor and it was everything and more that we dreamed of. We are so happy that we went with Melhorn Manor to host our wedding. The venue has so many special and unique touches from the different chandeliers to the beautiful courtyard. We fell in love with every aspect of Melhorn Manor. Our guests all traveled more than 2 hours and couldn't stop saying how beautiful the venue was. The owners, Jess and Allory, add to the 5 star experience with their attentiveness and support from beginning to end of the wedding planning process. When we had to postpone due to the pandemic, they were understanding and helpful. Any time I had a question, they were quick to respond and help along the way. They made our wedding day stress free and memorable. Our wedding felt just as special as the day we got married thanks to Jess and Allory. I would definitely recommend Melhorn Manor if you want a unique barn venue with caring owners. Melhorn Manor has a true rustic charm that you can't find at any other venue!

    Melhorn Manor, the perfect venue

    My husband and I got married in February 2021, it was the most perfect day and we were blessed with finding Melhorn Manor to bring to life the wedding reception we always wanted. The year leading up to our day, COVID was taking over the wedding industry. The Melhorns were absolutely everything we needed for months before the wedding and on our wedding day. They were both incredibly responsive no matter what time of the day. They worked with us to bring our vision to life, offered decor and no idea was too crazy for them. They are contracted with incredible vendors that offered services that had varied pricing and they led us to the perfect caterer. They kept us organized when we were setting up and on schedule during our reception. They also gave a military discount which sweetened the deal! They were so much fun to work with, we connected with them both and they made the experience one that we will never forget. If Mount Joy is a good central place for your special day, stop looking and call the Allory and Jess Melhorn!

    Five star experience at Melhorn Manor

    We couldn't have asked for a better experience at Melhorn Manor. If you are looking for a more upscale barn venue with different spaces for each part of your day, this is the place for you. Allory and Jess were helpful, responsive, and caring throughout the entire process - from our first tour through our wedding day. They genuinely care about their property and the couples who create memories here. Jess even bustled my dress for me when I couldn't find my MOH :)

    LOVE Melhorn Manor

    We had our wedding at Melhorn Manor this past September and it was absolutely incredible! Jessica and Allory were so kind and amazing to work with throughout the whole process. I was nervous about not hiring a planner/coordinator, but Jessica was so helpful during our meetings prior to the wedding she answered all of my questions and acted as our coordinator day of. I loved that they had a whole list of rental items that they provided for free (easel for welcome sign, table number holders, etc.) it really helped us with last minute wedding decor. The venue itself is so gorgeous and had everything that we wanted in a venue. I could not recommend Melhorn Manor more!

    Personal, Gorgeous, and Historical Venue!

    Jess and Allory were SO helpful in the planning process as well as making sure events ran smoothly the day of our wedding! The historical Tobacco Barn was the perfect setting for our ceremony and felt so quaint and homey! The Stables were so gorgeous we didn't have to do too much decorating as they were already breathtaking! There was a very personal feel throughout the whole process and it felt like we were part of the family!

    A rare combination - perfect venue AND perfect people!

    Melhorn Manor is gorgeous, but the real winner here is the owners. Kind, flexible, relaxed, and effective, Allory and Jessica were there for us every step of the way through planning the wedding, and then dealing with COVID. The facility is great - large, plenty of parking, idyllic Lancaster county setting, rustic but with modern amenities, but again, you can probably find all that other places. What you can't always find is owners who work with you as attentively as Melhorn Manor's owners. Thanks Jessica and Allory!

    Beautiful Venue and smooth planning process!

    We absolutely loved having our wedding at Melhorn Manor! The venue is so beautiful so that we only brought minimal decorations of our own. The venue also had plenty of space for our approximately 130 guests. We loved that there were various spaces were people could socialize, including the lower barn, lawn, and pavement where we could play yard games. The Melhorns were incredibly helpful and kind in the planning and preparing process. They were very prompt in replying to my questions, and could anticipate possible needs or issues. They were very professional and knowledgeable, and the virutal system they use for the seating arrangment made it very easy for me to plan where people would sit. We would highly recommend having your event at Melhorn Manor :)

    Fantastic venue and owners!

    My husband and I got married at Melhorn Manor in April 2021 and we have nothing but good things to say about the venue and its owners! Jess & Allory were fantastic from the start. From the first tour, to our detail meetings, to our wedding day, they walked us through every step and made what can be stressful wedding planning so much better! The venue is perfect and has every option you could want. Indoor and outdoor ceremony locations, indoor or outdoor cocktail hour spaces, and a beautiful reception area! You wouldn't regret this venue in the slightest! The easiest 5/5 rating!

    Amazing venue!

    Melhorn Manor is the place to get married (or have an event) in Lancaster County! Especially for a larger event, this is the perfect spot. The different barns and property offer many options for ceremonies and receptions. The property is right off of Main Street in Mount Joy, but as soon as you drive in, it feels like you are in a totally different place. The main barn is a gorgeous finished space that doesn’t feel like a barn, and the tobacco barn is a great indoor, temperature controlled space for a ceremony. The bridal suite was perfect for getting ready, so pretty and full of life. The grooms space is a great pre wedding hang out space. The aesthetics and details are incredible, and my pictures are made all the better with the beautiful backdrop Melhorn Manor provided. But above all, the owners are the biggest reason to use this venue. Allory and Jess were super responsive, attentive and flexible. We had to adjust our event a few times due to Covid and in the end we had a fantastic day with lots of support and every detail exactly as we’d planned. Covid interfered with our dream wedding day, but Allory and Jess helped us got still have a lovely day with our family. We will be forever grateful for their hospitality and willingness to work with us to make our day just perfect.

    A real life dream

    There aren’t enough words to describe my review with Melhorn. This place & the owners Jess & Allory will remain in my heart for the rest of my life. They made my wedding the best day of my life. The venue itself is stunning but then to get so lucky with having venue owners that you connect with and truly care about your day and making it run so smoothly.

    A Dream Team!

    Finding the right venue can be such a daunting task. We searched for weeks looking for just the right place. Many times we found ourselves speaking with people who didn’t seem to really care about our dreams or vision. However, Jessica and Allory could not have been more accommodating. Our planning meeting with them made us feel so at ease. We knew instantly that we were in good hands. They both worked very hard to make sure we had the wedding day we truly wanted. Jessica and Allory took the time to know us on a personal level. That made all the difference on our wedding day.

    Their venue is absolutely stunning. We fell in love with the buildings/grounds on our very first visit. The barns are beautiful with ample space and there are indoor/outdoor options for the ceremony.  The options they provided for the florals and catering were also exceptional. We had an intimate wedding with much attention to detail. Jessica and Allory delivered…BIG TIME! We highly recommend booking Melhorn Manor for the wedding of your dreams!!!

    Melhorn a magical place

    Melhorn Manor made our daughters wedding day perfect in every way. Jess and Allory were helpful and available the bridal suite was so nice to have since my daughter her bridesmaids and myself spent hours before the wedding doing hair and makeup together. The chapel on the premises was so convenient since we were from New Jersey and our guests didn’t have to drive to two locations. Melhorn offered for free many added touches such as decorative box for cards, wooden rustic table markers, reserved markers for aisles in church and more. I would recommend Melhorn Manor to anyone. I would consider having my other daughters wedding at Melhorn one day.

    Excellent Venue to work with

    As a Wedding DJ, working with venues is an every day task. With the pandemic still upon us we have worked VERY hard to return to the celebration ASAP in a safe but exciting way, and Melhorn Manor is doing it.
    Along with a 5star crew or vendors, we held a socially distant and informative Wedding Show this past Sunday. Limited attendance, every safety precaution, and multiple waves of guests allowed us to showcase our services without putting anyone at risk.
    Consider Melhorn Manor for your wedding for their atmosphere, their professionalism, their respect for your event and your needs, and for the fact that they WANT YOUR EVENT TO HAPPEN!!

    The best wedding venue- 100%

    Jess and Allory are an amazing vendor to work with!!!! You need to book your wedding at Melhorn Manor- I promise you that you wont be disappointed! In the beginning of our wedding venue search- we went to about six different venues and the day we set foot and had our one on one tour, we had a gut feeling that this was where we were supposed to get married. They took so much time explaining everything to us and giving us an amazing tour! They are a business, but you can tell this means more to them! They put their heart and soul into this business and they have an amazing way of really make you feel like you are their family and they would do anything for us to make our day perfect, and boy they did for sure! And then the pandemic happened which threw a wrench into our planning, but having Jess and Allory to lean on literally saved us! They were literally a text or phone call away- any time of the day- they were there for us answering our questions and helping us navigate our wedding day and helping coordinate with all the vendors as well! They sent out so many updates to all the couples keeping them updated on guidelines and new rules that needed to be followed and what the next steps were- they were so thorough. And then five days before our wedding, we didn’t hear from our bartending service and other weddings/couples were having issues with this company. Jess and Allory heard about the situation and already made calls and had their own staff lined up to work our wedding, and did all of this on their own so we didn’t have to stress about it! No other venue would do that for you!!! They got all the supplies and mixers, they literally SAVED the day! Jess was actually bartending 9 months pregnant helping out- I’m telling you this couple is AMAZING and will do whatever it takes to make our wedding day run smoothly and the best for us and our guests! EVERYONE at our wedding said they had such an amazing time! Greg and I owe a lot of that to Jess and Allory! We are so thankful for all of your help, support and guidance planning our best day ever! And we are so lucky to have gained a new friendship!

    Melhorn Manor

    The people at Melhorn Manor were very personable, professional, and helpful as we prepared for and enjoyed our wedding. They were always available to call, text, or email. They made planning easy and helped with our other vendors too. We loved having them around on our wedding day/night. They made sure we were well taken care of and that it was the wedding we had hoped for. Not only was the staff great, but so was the venue itself. We had access to the entire property all day. Every section of it is breathtaking.

    Lifesavers

    Allory and Jess the owners of Melhorn Manor are god sends. My husband and I got married in July 2020 and COVID ruined our original wedding plans that I had worked on for a year. We were left without a venue 17 days before our wedding date. My photographer put us in contact with Melhorn Manor and to our surprise they had an opening on our original wedding date and they were willing to book us last minute! They also helped us get a new caterer last minute and ultimately re-plan an entire wedding in 2 weeks. Needless to say our wedding day turned out just as beautiful and perfect as if I spent a year planning it. Allory and Jess are so kind and accommodating they truly are in the business to see love flourish and make memories for couples that will last a life time. I cannot say enough great things about not only the owners but also the beautiful venue.

    Incredible Venue & Owners

    Our experience with Melhorn Manor was 10/10! We loved every part of our wedding day and the owners, Jess and Allory, helped make everything less stressful and run smoothly. I would 100% recommend Melhorn Manor for anyone beginning the wedding planning process! The venue is beautiful and had plenty of photo spots on the property and the barn was perfect for our guests! The owners helped my vision for our wedding day come to life and worked with me to make it happen despite the pandemic. They were so flexible and wonderful to work with! I love Melhorn Manor!

    Our wedding on Melhorn Manor was fantastic especially during these times! Everything was COVID safe and there was plenty of room indoors and outdoors to allow us to keep us and our guests safe. I would highly reccommend having your wedding here; Jess and Allory are very kind and understanding people. They will try their best give you the wedding that you dreamed of and more!

    #1 Wedding Venue in PA!!

    Melhorn Manor is simply the BEST!! My husband and I got married there on September 25th, 2020 and it was absolutely perfect! Not only are the owners, Jessica & Allory, the nicest people you will ever meet but they will go above and beyond for you on your wedding day. We will never be able to thank them enough for everything they did to make our day so special. Jess became not only my wedding coordinator but also my personal de-stressor and a true friend. She was there for me to talk to whenever I needed. She answered any & all questions we had, and I could vent to her about wedding planning (any bride knows this is HUGE). Getting married brings on a lot of challenges and none less than those of 2020, but Allory & Jess made sure to be there for their couples with constant COVID updates so that you didn't feel alone with the unknowns. Other than my husband and I choosing to marry each other, choosing Melhorn as our venue was the best decision we made. I miss them so much already!! So if you are on here looking for a venue in the Lancaster, PA area LOOK NO FURTHER!! Melhorn Manor IS IT. It will truly be the most amazing day of your life!!

    Jess & Allory are AMAZING! This venue is perfect. They are extremely detail-oriented and attentive. They are always very prompt with answering questions and calming nerves. If I could get married again and again, I would always choose this venue! I’m sad it’s all over!

    Jess and Allory (and Miles) were the kindest venue owners we met while looking for our wedding. They are professional, organized, and dedicated to making your day the best ever! I cannnot thank them enough for making my day a dream come true. If you pick Melhorn Manor as your wedding venue, you can guarantee a stress free rehearsal and wedding day!

    The best venue in Lancaster

    If you are looking for a venue who cares about you - book melhorn. The Melhorn’s are so caring to their couples. We had our date set 2 years ago and when we were getting ready to get married COVID happened. They guided us on what to do. They were thoughtful, caring, compassionate and encouraged us to do what WE wanted. We were lucky to use their space for our elopement and then again for our big wedding. I am so happy to have them in the wedding business and they deserve more than a round of applause. The venue has so many options for brides and grooms to really customize their day. Any style works there. We had a very boho relaxed wedding and it shined through in the venue.

    Outstanding!!!!!

    Melhorn Manor is by far the best venue and people I have ever had the opportunity to work with! My wife and I just got married there and they went above and beyond to make it the most special day for us. I have never met more positive and caring owners of such a wonderful business. They made us feel like the most important couple on earth! The venue itself is stunning and I couldn’t have found a more perfect place to say I do. I would rate them a million stars but unfortunately it only lets me rate them 5 out of 5. I highly recommend this venue!

    The perfect place for our perfect day!

    We could not have been happier with our experience at Melhorn Manor! This was the second wedding venue we toured, and we instantly fell in love. In addition to the amazing venue itself, Allory and Jess were fantastic to work with! From simple texts, calls, and emails, they were quick to get back to us with answers to any questions we may have had...and we certainly had a lot of them! They were so patient in working with us to make sure our day was exactly what we had imagined! We were consistently welcomed back to take another tour or show family members our future reception location, whenever we asked! Although Melhorn Manor is absolutely BEAUTIFUL on its own, the experience of working with Allory and Jess was one that we couldn't find anywhere else. We felt like our needs and wants were truly listened to. They made our reception run seamlessly, and we could not have been happier with how everything turned out! They made our vision of a Christmas wedding absolutely perfect. From the beautiful Christmas decorations, to the many lights both in- and outside the venue, it was exactly what we were looking for. We even lucked out with a 60-degree day, and they quickly got the yard games out for us, as I had requested. Our guests loved spending some time outside during Cocktail Hour, while playing some Cornhole and other games. No matter what season your wedding is, you are bound to have an amazing experience and beautiful scenery at Melhorn Manor. The bridal suite and man cave are sure to please as well! The boys loved having two TVs and plenty of games to occupy their time downstairs. The girls loved the rustic vibe of the bridal suite, and it was the perfect space for getting ready for my special day! Overall, our experience at Melhorn Manor is one that we will continue to tell people about for the rest of our lives. If you are looking for a rustic, classy, and lovely wedding venue, this is the place. We could not have better things to say about it!

    Our Wedding!

    My husband and I got married at Melhorn in August of 2019, and I’m still overwhelmed with emotions from that day! It was perfect, and part of that is all because of Jessica and Allory! From the time we first met Jessica and Allory they were amazing! They thought if things I never would have thought of! And after our ceremony, Jessica even used a display we had to make our sweetheart table stick out. I truly cannot put into words how blessed we feel to have been able to work with them and to have had our wedding At Melhorn Manor, which is stunning! Seriously, every inch of the property is gorgeous!! My husband and I talk about just throwing a huge party so we can hold another event at Melhorn!

    Fantastic experience

    My husband and I were thrilled with our wedding at Melhorn Manor. It surpassed our expectations, and our guests were raving about the venue, food (we used Nanalyn’s), and overall accommodations. Allory and Jess were a dream to work with - always got back to us within 24 hours (usually a lot less), were flexible with times to visit the venue and have our meetings, they were personable and honest. It was easy and fun to work with them. They know what they’re doing and explain things well.

    Melhorn Manor is beautiful, inside and out. It is kept in pristine condition. You don’t need a lot of decor at all to make it stand out. We LOVED having our wedding there. Would highly recommend.

    Fantastic Experience at Melhorn Manor

    We got married and had our reception at Melhorn Manor in September and couldn't have been happier with our experience. Jessica and Allory were so easy and fun to work with! They were always happy to answer our questions and make sure we had everything we needed for our day. We were able to have peace of mind in knowing that they were going to do everything they could to make our day go smoothly. I would highly recommend Melhorn Manor for any event.

    Melhorn Manor is an outstanding venue to host your wedding. Not only is the physical venue space stunning, but the owners Jess and Allory are amazing to work with as well. They truly go above and beyond to ensure that your wedding day is how it was envisioned. I would highly recommend Melhorn Manor to any couple who is in the process of planning a wedding!

    Melhorn Manor - 5 stars!

    We loved having our wedding at Melhorn Manor! Jess and Allory were great to work with and went above and beyond to make our day perfect. The fact that Allory and Jess were married in the venue is invaluable. They understand what it's like to be married there and have thought of every detail to make the day as seamless as possible. The venue is gorgeous and is one of the few places with equal quality indoor and outdoor options. I would highly recommend using Melhorn Manor for your wedding!

    Dream Wedding

    Oh my word, we loved getting married at Melhorn Manor. It was a dream. So beautiful that we barely decorated—just added some flowers to the tables!! Seriously, get married here. You get so much for the price you pay (access to the whole grounds, multiple ceremony locations, tables and chairs, arbor, decorative pieces) and Allory & Jess are insanely incredible & helpful. They think of everything & ensure your day runs so smoothly and according to plan. They are so thorough, accessible, & kind. We love Melhorn Manor & you should definitely get married there!!! :)

    Couldn’t Be Better

    My husband and I cannot recommend Melhorn Manor enough! We both live and work overseas, so the majority of our pre-wedding planning/coordinating with them actually had to happen online. They were extremely helpful, patient, understanding, quick to respond, and willing to go above and beyond to make sure that we had all the necessary information, and all of our questions answered. When we did get back to the USA a month before the wedding and were able to actually go to Melhorn Manor and meet Allory and Jess in person, we continued to be impressed. They are so personable, and it is clear that they honestly want to make each couple’s wedding day absolutely amazing. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous; all of our guests commented on that as well! It is stylish, spacious, clean, and is kept up extremely well. The location of the venue is great, too. It is in a nice quiet area, but has convenience stores, grocery stores, etc. nearby for any last-minute needs. It also has plenty of parking. Allory and Jess helped us with everything from figuring out the layout of the reception and the general timing plan of our wedding day, to on the wedding day itself, making sure that things ran perfectly smoothly—even offering to take care of big and small details here and there, like helping with the set up of the ceremony location on their property that we chose (there are several options!), making sure our guest book was moved from one place to the next as guests moved from cocktail hour to the actual reception, totally facilitating the sparkler sendoff, and Jess just checking on me (the bride) throughout the day to make sure I was doing ok. I felt so much less stress on the wedding day than I thought I would, all because of the help they gave with these details and many more. I didn’t have to be worrying about things running perfectly smoothly, because they took care of it! Like we said, we can’t say enough good things about Allory and Jess and Melhorn Manor. The way our process went with them, from beginning to end, was wonderful!

    Best Venue in PA

    I cannot put into words how incredible our wedding was because of Melhorn Manor. From the very first tour to the end of the wedding night Jess and Allory were there to answer questions, offer support, guidance, and suggestions and were just overall more than we could have ever asked for. The only thing I'm upset about is that we don't get to work with them or discuss our big day anymore - but I will be sure to suggest this venue to anyone I possibly can. There's no better wedding or event venue in PA. Thank you, Jess and Allory, for making my wedding more magical than I ever could have imagined. I can't recommend this venue enough.

    Incredible Venue from Start to Finish

    I cannot imagine working with a better wedding venue. Melhorn provided everything we could think of, from the back drop for our ceremony to lawn games to a fire pit to access to multiple barns. They were absolutely responsive, kind, and felt like friends through the whole wedding planning process. We asked for a few things (like to bring in a dessert truck) and they were really flexible. We cannot more highly recommend them to any couples getting married in the Lancaster area!

    Great venue

    Melhorn Manor offered exactly what we needed for our perfect day. From providing a list of vendors to fill roles we still needed, to being open and available at any hour to assist with planning or possible issues to a suggestion presented, Jess and Allory we hands down a grounding point to keep everything on track to get through the big day with ease as everyone around stressed out. We could not have asked for a better experience.

    I am not even sure I can fully put into words how amazing the venue and especially the owners Jess & Allroy truly are. We selected the Melhorn Manor for our September 2018 wedding at the beginning of the year and never once did we second guess our decision. Up until our wedding day they were supportive, calm, helpful and had an answer to every little thing that popped up! I would host another event at Melhorn in a heart beat!

    We can't say enough good things about Melhorn Manor! The owners, Jessica & Allory, worked closely with us from start to finish during the wedding planning process. They truly seemed just as invested as we were in making our wedding day memorable. They were very flexible with allowing us, our wedding coordinator and our family to tour the venue frequently while planning, and gave us great ideas on how to best utilize the space for our specific event. We had absolutely no worries on the "big day" as both Jessica & Allory were on site working directly, and efficiently with our wedding coordinator and vendors. The venue itself is simply beautiful and minimal decor was needed to make it look stunning. You can see the love and care that has gone into updating and maintaining such a beautiful estate. We would get married here again in a heartbeat!!!

    We attended a friend's wedding at Melhorn Manor last month, and we were blown away by this venue. It's so open and spacious. 240 guests, and a lot of dancing, and it never felt crowded! The rooms for the bride and groom to get ready for their day were outstanding....plenty of room for the entire bridal party, and they're on different floors, which was nice. The owners are so full of energy and willing to do whatever it takes to make your day special and perfect. It's a beautiful spot...wish I could get married all over again, so I could do it there!

    I am the maid of honor at a wedding that will be taking place there in June, and we also decided to have a surprise bridal shower there, at their corn barn. she was so helpful and flexible with everything she also made her self completely available to help us trick the bride into coming into the venue for her surprise bridal shower! She’s positive enthusiastic and she makes you feel like your event is her event. I 100% recommend this establishment.

    Our wedding isn't until for another 6 months, but my fiancé and I are so excited to work with Melhorn Manor! After seeing just the reception area, we didn't even have to finish the tour to know we loved it. It is simple but beautiful and rustic and so nicely redone. Jessica and her husband Allory are wonderful to work with, they met us with excitement and happily shared all they can offer, recommendations from their own wedding, which they had there, and other weddings they've done so far, and all the plans they have to continue improving the venue. They're very flexible and offer their services in whatever way they can. There are 5 main areas (ceremony site, cocktail hour area, reception space, and the bride/groom rooms) and all are exactly what we were looking for. The main ceremony site is set up on a lawn that has a stone wall, creek and trees and faces a rustic white barn. It leads right into the cocktail area which is a redone stable with stone flooring and beautiful light neutral wood. The reception area has so many options for set up, plenty of space to comfortably seat all our guests, which we loved since we're doing a buffet. There are beams throughout the reception area and they add so much character without taking up space, and Jessica has drapes and lights hanging from them and it creates the perfect picture of what a rustic wedding should be. The bride's room has great lighting (as a makeup artist, this was very important to me) and I know I'm going to have to drag my groom and the groomsmen out of their awesome man cave. We're still in the planning stages, but I would recommend this venue to anyone. There is plenty of parking, accessibility for everyone, it's a very easy location to get to, and they include a lot of features (drapery, lighting, etc) that saved us from having to rent. Jessica and Allory offer so much to make your day perfect, and it really makes Melhorn Manor so much more than just a venue.

    My fiancé and I will be celebrating our wedding at Melhorn next fall. When we visited the venue, we fell in love with the space, the location, as well as the kindness and flexibility of Allory and Jessica. I love that the barn has been in their family for generations, and the way they’ve updated the space to keep the original structure is simply stunning. We are looking forward to working with them through the planning process!

They will do anything to make sure your day is perfect. This venue has the perfect barn/rustic vibe we were looking for, and at such a reasonable price too! You definitely want to go see this venue because everything about it is to die for! You WILL be blown away - I promise!

    This venue is gorgeous! The "rustic barn" look is exactly what my fiance and I were looking for when we stumbled upon Melhorn Manor. Not only is there enough room on the inside to seat all your guest while also having enough room for a dance floor, but the venue also provides heating and air conditioning so your guest will be comfortable no matter what the weather is! The price is very reasonable and hard to beat with everything they offer. In addition to having the venue all day, it also includes all the table & chairs, having a bridal suite and a grooms room, and having the ability to have an indoor cocktail hour without having to rent a tent which is amazing! Not to mention, Allory and Jessica Melhorn are both very kind and wonderful people who are so easy to talk to. My fiance and I have no doubts that they will make sure everything is perfect for our wedding in 2018 :)

    My fiancé and I are having our wedding at this venue in Nov. 2018. We attended their open house last weekend with our families to see the new renovations. We could not be happier to see it all come together and look forward to next year!

    We booked with Melhorn Manor for a March wedding, and they have been amazing to work with! Allory and Jessica go out of their way to be responsive to our questions, flexible, and committed to our day. We can't wait to have our wedding there!

    Allory and Jess are great! They are so approachable and easy to work with. Melhorn Manor is beautiful. Because of its rustic charm, there are so many spots to capture every moment of the day. They truly have thought of everything, from weather, to the time in between the wedding and reception, and even where the bride and groom get ready. We are so blessed by them and all they have meant to us during this time in our lives.

    From the moment I walked onto the property, I knew this was the location of my daughter's wedding. Jessica is absolutely amazing to work with and has answered every single question promptly and professionally, even when I asked the same question twice! This is a brand new venue that is top notch on every level! Grab it while you can, because dates won't remain open on their calendars for long! Thank you so much for everything, Jessica and I can't wait for our visions to become reality in this outstanding rustic, yet elegant venue. The perfect venue for my girl!

    Beautiful and reasonably priced

    We were really hoping to find a barn venue but everything we found was incredibly cost prohibitive. When we found venues that were within our budget, they had a list of caterers from which we had to choose; many lists started at $100 a plate. Then we found Melhorn. The facilities were beautiful, the price was reasonable. Surely, we thought, the caterer list would start at expensive and go to unobtainable. But no! The caterers were also reasonably priced. We kept expecting a catch but never found one. Allory and Jessica were a delight to work with and the caterer made delicious, quality food. If you are getting married in the greater Lancaster/York area, we would highly recommend Melhorn Manor!

    Highly recommend Melhorn Manor

    Melhorn Manor was the venue for my daughter's wedding in June. We were very happy with everything there. They were well organized, had everything set up ready as expected, and were very helpful in their guidance of what things work best. Jess and Allory, the owners, were so easy to work with- very kind and accomodating. We had a very good experience with Melhorn.

    Melhorn Manor Experience

    My husband and I can’t put in to words how much we loved Melhorn Manor. Our day was beyond perfect. Jessica and Allory were so helpful. I often times would text Jessica with many questions and she would always get back to me. Even though like I felt like a nervous and neurotic bride, Jessica and Allory made sure to make me feel the opposite. If you want rustic meets elegant, Melhorn Manor is the place. What put Melhorn Manor above all other venues we looked at were Jessica and Allory. We did not feel like just another couple paying to get married at a location, but, that we were a priority and they were invested in our day as much as we were. Everything was wonderful and we highly recommend picking Melhorn for your special day. You will not be disappointed.

    The only concern or comment we have is with chairs that were in the bridal suit and a standing changing easel type thing that all of us changed behind and had our dresses hung on.

    The hair stylists I used for myself and my bridesmaids used two of the chairs with backs that were in the room. The chairs were out for decoration and were not to be used. Myself nor the hairstylists knew that.

    Secondly was the standing changing easel. This was not something that was bolted in to the ground and when our dresses were hung on it for pictures it’s almost fell over. At some point throughout the night it got knocked over and the hinges broke. As a result, money got deducted from the security deposit to be fixed.

    Besides those two things, our night was wonderful. Just be mindful and ask questions about specifics at the venue and what your security deposit could be kept for.
