    Gatsby Lovers Paradise

    My husband and I just got married at Moonstone Manor on May 11 and we could not be more thankful that we chose them as our wedding venue. They were so responsive, receptive, and kind to us and our guests. Any questions we had, they were quick to respond. They kept the grounds immaculate and accommodated our needs. It ended up raining at night during our reception and they even brought in a bunch of umbrellas for our guests to use in the case they needed to go out of the tent to get to their car or the bathroom. Our guests raved about the venue all night long! It's a dream!

    Enchanting Wedding Venue

    This wedding venue is a fairytale setting that blends the grandeur of a beautiful manor house with stunning landscapes. The manicured gardens and whimsical indoor spaces create a perfect harmony of masculine strength and feminine grace.
    Gina and her team are not just friendly but incredibly helpful. They made the entire preparation process a breeze, and on the wedding day, everything fell seamlessly into place. It was a perfect day, thanks to their exceptional support and attention to detail.

    Best Decision you can make!

    We couldn't have chosen a better venue for our wedding day!!! Gina, Mary and the entire staff at Moonstone Manor have been a pleasure to work with the past two years as we prepared for our wedding day and they remained involved even past the day of. The time and effort they put toward our event is unmatched and if we were to do it all over again we wouldn't hesitate choosing Moonstone manor once again. The grounds of the Manor are kept in pristine condition. The inhouse catering by Food For Thought Catering received rave reviews from all of our guest and as the bride and groom we were beyond satisfied with the quality of the food, everything was delicious and the staff managed to take care of even the finest of details. I urge anyone seeking a venue for any special event; look no further, Moonstone Manor is the place you have been looking for.

    Pure magic.

    There are no words to describe the wonder that is Moonstone Manor. No questions, the answer is yes, book your wedding here! The staff is patient and kind, and cares about perfecting your day down to the details. We were looking for elegance that still had a back yard, intimate feel. Moonstone gave us exactly that. It’s enchanting both inside and out. Just gorgeous.

    Dream Venue with the Best Staff

    My wife and I were venue hunting in January 2021 for our June 2022 wedding and our first stop was Moonstone Manor - after taking a tour of the grounds and speaking with Mary, we instantly knew we would be in the hands of a top talent team at a one-of-a-kind venue if we booked the Moonstone. So, we stopped our touring right there and decided on the Moonstone, which was the best wedding decision we could've made! Over the next 1.5 years, we exchanged emails and phone calls with the staff at moonstone to bring our wedding vision to life. The staff at moonstone was always prompt in their replies to our inquiries, and provided detailed and thoughtful suggestions for our big day. Booking at the moonstone will not only provide you with a dream venue, but also the care and advice of true industry professionals that want you and your partner to have the best wedding ever. On our wedding day, the staff at moonstone were so helpful and made sure we didn't have to lift a finger all day - they shuttled around my wife's grandfather in a golf cart, brought my wife and i plates of food while we took photos during the cocktail hour, and took the time to talk with our guests and find additional ways to provide above and beyond service. Additionally, booking the Moonstone will make the lives of your photographer and videographer a piece of cake. the grounds are immaculate and there is no shortage of scenery between the mansion, bell tower, grooms quarter, chapel, gardens, and creek. We couldn't recommend a venue and team more than we recommend the Moonstone Manor for your wedding day. Thank you Gina, Mary, and the entire Moonstone Manor team.

    Voted best wedding of the family!

    Wow wow wow. I cannot say it enough… thank you so much Moonstone. The women that run Moonstone Manor were such a pleasure to work with even though we were the most tough group of people to work with. Your patience, kindness, and attention to detail did not go unnoticed.
    I knew from the moment I rounded the bend and saw the top of the house peeking through the trees that Moonstone was going to be our venue. We have gotten so many compliments on how beautiful, peaceful, and personal our wedding was.
    Mary and Gina were accommodating, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful with every conversation we had throughout the process. They curbed my anxiety and kept me afloat.
    I appreciate Mary and Gina for making sure that my dream became a reality. It truly was a page out of a fairytale.

    My husband and I got married at Moonstone Manor and it was THE BEST venue and wedding we could have asked for. Gina, Mary, and the team made sure all our questions were answered which helped us enjoy our day knowing everything was taken care of. Multiple guests told us it was the best and most beautiful wedding they had ever been to. Highly recommend!!

    Our Dream Wedding Venue

    Moonstone Manor was the venue for our wedding on September 23, 2021. My husband and I fell in love with this venue the first time we toured the property in early 2021. From the Mansion to the Woodland Pavillion and the creek running behind the property, everything was perfect for our dream wedding. The Moonstone Manor Team was extremely helpful from our first tour to the end of our wedding day. They walked with us every step of the way. I cannot thank them enough for their kindness, knowledge and patience with our hundreds of questions about everything. Our wedding day was perfect and we received a multitude of compliments from guests on what a wonderful venue we chose, and I can’t help but agree 100%! I highly recommend Moonstone Manor as your wedding or event venue!

    Everything I've ever dreamed of & more

    Moonstone Manor was an immediate yes for both my husband and I when we toured. Our wedding was in July but we toured it covered in snow in January, and we still knew it was perfect. I always knew I wanted an outdoor wedding and the grounds at Moonstone Manor are absolutely breathtaking. Mary and Gina were amazing to work with, they made us feel so important and loved. They were super accommodating, allowing us to take our engagement photos there and when COVID forced us to postpone our ceremony a year they made it so easy. I couldn't count the number of guests who complimented the venue. It was truly a perfect day.

    Couldn't have asked for a better venue!

    I can't rave enough about Moonstone Manor--everything was absolutely exceptional! Gina and Mary were so accommodating and helpful throughout the entire process. I look back on my wedding as the best day of my life, and they really played a huge part in that.

    Moonstone Manor is a Fairytale Wedding Venue

    Moonstone Manor is a phenomenal wedding venue located in central PA. Not only are the grounds and mansion gorgeous, the staff is outstanding. They all go above and beyond what is asked of them from answering questions promptly to accomodating requests and assisting on one of the most important days of your life. I highly recommend Moonstone Manor and believe they deserve the highest award possible! Thank you so much Gina, Mary and Moonstone Staff for everything!!

    Thaddeus Stevens Chambers

    Such a charming romantic mother’s day getaway my boyfriend and I had, staying at the Manor. We want to thank everyone involved with the Manor as well as a special thank you to the innkeepers, Keegan and Faith, for their upmost above and beyond hospitality they shared for us. Keegan and Faith are a lovely warming couple who live at the Manor. Upon arrival, they were there to greet us at the door with warming open arms. They made us feel special welcoming us as their guests. They took us on a brief tour leading to our rooms. In the morning, Keegan and Faith made us a delicious breakfast ready promptly at 9am, in the breakfast dinning room accompanied by a cozy fire in the fire place.

    Unbelievably magical!

    My gosh, where do I even begin!!! Even though I could go on for HOURS talking about everything that Mary and Gina did to help make our wedding day the most MAGICAL experience ever, I will try and keep it relatively short, lol! My husband and I probably visited 12 or 13 venues when we were trying to pick a spot to have our wedding and I can say without pause that Moonstone Manor was the ONLY venue that I cried at (happy tears of course!) The charm of Moonstone Manor is magnetic and it truly manifested itself into our hearts within the first few minutes of visiting. The manor itself is enchanting in every sense of the word but the property surrounding the manor is magical in its own right - it's like fairytale inception!!! I need to start finding synonyms for the word magical but it's the best word to describe this venue. The groomsman's quarters are so rugged and full of just the right amount of masculine energy that any guy would want to feel on his big day. Likewise, ANY room inside the manor could give the bride and her bridesmaids a feeling of being a fairy in their own storybook. The art, the natural light, and the flow of the property was enough to keep us coming back (we already booked ourselves a night at the Manor for over the holidays!) Two things (among many others that I will mention) that made this choice of venue a no-brainer, were the tent and the rain plan. The tent is beautifully set looking over the stream and the floor of the tent is a gorgeous granite-like stone that lifts the formality of the party to a new level while keeping it natural and close to nature. The rain plan is a lovely little church-like pavilion with pews and, once again, a lovely view of the property. The best part of the rain plan is that it's STILL OUTSIDE! I loved that no matter the weather, my yearn to be in nature wouldn't be quelled. So yes, the property is amazing but the most important part of this venue are the two women who run it - Gina and Mary. The love they have for their couples is PALPABLE - it was like talking to my mother every time I got to discuss something with them either over the phone, in person, or via email. They are maternal and sweet and will bend over backwards to make sure everything goes according to plan. Even during the pandemic, their positivity and optimism provided such comfort. Not once in any of the decisions we had to make (changing our date to the following year) did Gina or Mary make us feel guilty or unworthy of our big day. They were encouraging, sweet, and so mindful of the gravity of this day and what it meant to us. I find myself tearing up every time I write about Moonstone or think about our day there. It was an experience I wish I could relive over and over again. The last thing I'll say is that if you're looking for a caterer, CHOOSE FOOD FOR THOUGHT!!!! Gina absolutely CRUSHES it in the kitchen. Her food is fresh, seasonal, and appealing to the eyes AND belly. Highly recommend this venue for all sorts of reasons but above all, we recommend it if you want to feel like you're at home, surrounded by loved ones (new and old) on the best day of your life. The inn-keepers, Faith and Keegan, were like gentle reminders throughout the weekend that guests are family at Moonstone Manor. We felt so cared for and elated the entire time we spent at Moonstone. We plan to return as often as we can to relive the magic and soak up the love shared here!

    All our love, to the moon and back,
    Kristi, MJ and Kula

    A perfect wedding venue

    We absolutely loved Moonstone. It was a picture perfect day from the weather to the venue itself. Not one hiccup. During a time of so much uncertainty due to the Covid virus this venue made everything incredibly perfect. We were treated like family from the first time we stepped onto the property. The time spent at the venue was a great experience. It’s definitely a hidden gem and it needs to be recognized for it perfection. The on-sight catering Food for Thought is another gem. The food is not only delicious but plentiful. A definite place to consider having your special day if your looking for the most memorable day of your life.

    We were so pleased with the flexibility and support that Moonstone provided in a year filled when uncertainty. We felt like we received amazing quality for the price point and loved all the photo options onsite for the day. We couldn’t recommend enough!!

    Absolutely amazing

    My now husband and I are from different states. When we decided to have the wedding half way between both, I started to look online for venues. AS SOON as I Moonstone Manor, I told him "this is the one". We toured the place with Mary and we both fell in love. Our guests are still raving to us about how beautiful and unique the venue was! We have nothing but good things to say. Gina, Mary, and the team are truly incredible. They treat everyone with such respect and were there to answer all of my emails (even to calm me down when things got crazy). They were so accommodating and sweet through postponing the wedding due to covid. On the day of, Gina and Mary were both hands on with a smile on their faces. You can really tell they love what they do. I could not have asked for more from a venue. We love Moonstone Manor.

    The perfect wedding venue!

    My husband and I got married here on August 29, 2020 and it was beyond perfect! Gina and all of the staff at Moonstone Manor go above and beyond to make sure your wedding day is perfect. We also had our rehearsal dinner at the venue and used Food for Thought Catering. The food was absolutely delicious and all of our guests gave so many compliments! We were able to stay over the night before the wedding which made getting ready the morning of super easy! I can’t say enough good things about Gina and Moonstone Manor. Everyone was so easy to work with and the grounds were absolutely beautiful! I wish we could do it all over again!

    Made Our Day Perfect

    Moonstone Manor is the best! Their grounds are absolutely beautiful. All of our guests kept gushing about how it was the loveliest place they’d ever been to. We visited a lot of venues, but as soon as we stepped foot on this one, we immediately knew it was perfect. And Amy, Mary, and Gina are fantastic! They were always very responsive whenever I had a question or needed something, and they couldn’t have been more accommodating when we had to postpone our wedding date due to the pandemic - didn’t even charge us or anything, we just simply moved the date. They also came up with a very reasonable set of guidelines so our guests and staff were kept safe while allowing everything to feel as close to normal as possible. The inside of the mansion is also as lovely as the outside. There is more than enough space for getting ready and relaxing, and there are so many perfect places to take photos, especially if you want that vintage feel. I can’t say enough positive things about this place. They deserve more than 5 stars.

    Magnificent Moonstone Memories

    Words are inadequate in expressing our gratitude to the Moonstone Staff for the lovely memories we have of planning and enjoying our daughter’s wedding with them. From our initial visit until the wedding celebration send off our wedding experience at Moonstone Manor with their wonderful staff was absolutely incredible. After our initial meeting with Gina and Mary, there was absolutely no doubt in our minds about where we wanted to have our wedding. Their warm, welcoming, enthusiasm made us extremely comfortable with the overwhelming planning process. Their attention to detail, expertise, and knowledge assured us we work working with the best. When we had our “tasting” to determine our appetizers and entrees we were overwhelmed. We loved everything! Throughout the planning process we received color coded detailed communications updating us. Questions were welcomed and concerns addressed. They worked diligently to allay any concerns. When the “Big Day” arrived they were continually checking with vendors, wedding party, parents, and guests to determine if there were any needs they could address. The comfort and best interest of all of us was constantly on their minds. The Bride and Groom were smiling all day! They said it was the best day of their lives. Our guests raved about the gorgeous historic venue, the scrumptious appetizers, and delicious meal. Everything was perfect! I have no reservations about recommending the Moonstone Manor and Food for Thought Catering as a premiere wedding venue. We feel truly blessed to have had the Moonstone wedding experience and work with their incredibly hardworking, caring, experts!!!

    Wedding/Rehearsal

    Moonstone Manor is run by the fabulous owner, Gina and her consultant, Mary. I was treated with so much kindness and patience since day one. All of my questions were answered no matter how many emails I sent. They continued to treat me as a bride throughout COVID and were flexible when it came to changing the dates last minute. I have nothing but GREAT comments from our guests about the beauty of this property. You won't regret making your choice of Moonstone Manor!!!!
