Normandy Farm Hotel Reviews

I planned my wedding in 2 1/2 months with Normandy Farm. The staff is AMAZING and was so helpful throughout the whole process. The rooms are beautiful and they decorated the silos room so beautifully for my day. The food was amazing. I still have people telling me how much they enjoyed the food and how amazing everything was. I would highly recommend this venue.

Normandy Farm Hotel is full of charm! The rustic feel and lovely outdoor spaces make it a wonderful spot for timeless wedding photos. It’s cozy, inviting, and absolutely beautiful!

Our wedding day at Normandy Farm was an absolute dream come true. We had our ceremony in the garden and our reception in the grand ballroom, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect setting. Throughout the planning process, every staff member we encountered was kind, attentive, and incredibly helpful. They were responsive to all our questions and requests, making sure every detail was taken care of leading up to the big day. On the day of our wedding, everything ran like clockwork thanks to the organized and prepared staff at. Everything flowed smoothly on our wedding day. The staff at Normandy Farm ensured that every aspect of our event was executed flawlessly, allowing us to relax and truly enjoy every moment without any worries. We are incredibly grateful to the team at Normandy Farm. We highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a beautiful setting, exceptional service, and a stress-free wedding experience.

Our wedding at Normandy Farm was PERFECT, I couldn’t have asked for a better venue and night! I want to give a few shoutouts to some of their amazing staff who made planning and executing the night so easy and smooth!

PLANNING/TOURING
Brandi - Brandi was the one to give us all the information after we took our first initial tour of NF. She also helped with a ton of questions as we were going through the booking/signing/paying process.

Heather Bogen - After we officially booked, we were put in contact with Heather Bogen a few months later and I cannot say enough great things about Heather. She is organized, responsive, and super understanding. She will answer all of your questions and get back to you within minutes to hours. She is AWESOME! We also did our 30-day prior to the wedding call with Heather where we went over everything that was going to be included and filled out all the documents required by NF to ensure the day goes smoothly. Thank you for everything you did Heather, you are the best!

WEEK/DAY OF WEDDING
Marco - One awesome thing about NF is that they allow you do do a drop off appointment the week of your wedding (which helps bc I just moved to DE last year). Marco was the one to greet us at the front and do the intake form of all the stuff we brought to be dropped off (and it was a lot LOL)! Marco is thoughtful, organized, and thorough. He made sure everything was taken care of and would be set up properly. Marco is also the day of coordinator, more so on the catering side of the business. So he will help with everything but he will also make sure the timing of the food, desserts, cake, etc is perfect. Marco is amazing and I would highly recommend requesting him for your wedding! Thank you so so much Marco, you are the best!!

Heather Dreher - Heather is literally the sweetest and best Maitre D/Bridal Attendant! So Heather is basically Marco’s counter-part and they worked all day together on my wedding. Heather sent me the sweetest message back when I had a few last minute details the day before the wedding and was just so excited for me and ensured that everything would be taken care of. EVERYTHING was so so perfect on the day of the wedding, from all the details (memorial table, love through the years, guest book, etc)! Anything I needed, Heather was there for me! Did I need a tag cut off my dress? Did I need Heather to go grab my purse from the hospitality suite? Did I need to change my shoes mid-reception (and Heather even helped put them on)? HEATHER did literally everything for me and was always there if I needed anything. Thank you so so much Heather for making my wedding day so perfect, you are THE best!!

Kat - BEST BARTENDER EVER!!! Kat was awesome and super sweet to all of our guests

If you are considering Normandy Farm for your wedding, stop what you are doing and book them! Normandy Farm was absolutely incredible from start to finish. Since I was a little girl, I knew I wanted to get married at Normandy Farm before I ever saw the inside of the building. The grounds at Normandy Farm are gorgeous let alone the inside of the ballrooms. From the sales manager to the event coordinator to the day of coordinator, everybody is absolutely phenomenal. Normandy Farm does a fantastic job of being a one stop shop. The venue, all the rentals, food, drink, decor, cake, etc. - everything is included and is definitely worth the cost. JoAnne Nelson was our event coordinator and she was fantastic. She was very quick to get back to me for all of the questions I had. Ruth ran our drop off appointment and she did a great job of confirming and relaying how exactly we envisioned the Silos ballroom looking. On the wedding day Marco was our maître d and Heather was our bridal attendant. With the two of them we did not have to worry about anything. They made sure not only was everything set up but they also broke everything down for us at the end of the night. They kept our timeline on schedule and made sure we always had food in front of us and a drink in our hands. The Farmer’s Daughter makes the most delicious food and were very accommodating for our guests who had food allergies. 10/10 would recommend anyone have their event at Normandy Farm.

Ashley Wenger was SO helpful throughout the planning process. She was prompt in her email responses, thorough in her answers, and accommodating to our needs. When we had to change our wedding date twice due to Covid, she was flexible and understanding.
We had a lot of guests (bride included!) with dietary restrictions and allergies; Normandy Farm was so accommodating for the rehearsal dinner, cocktail hour, and reception. For cocktail hour, they labeled the hors d’oeuvres (GF, dairy free, etc.). For the rehearsal dinner and reception, they checked in with each guest to ensure they understood each person’s dietary requirements and prepared their food differently when needed. The dinner portions at the reception were HUGE! The NY strip was prepared to each guest’s desired temperature. All guests raved about how good the food was, the large portion size, and the ability to take their leftover meal home in a doggie bag.
The entire staff (servers, bartenders, etc.) was so accommodating and appreciative of our tips. Our maitre d’ Ruth was very helpful and attentive; she was thorough and detail oriented at the drop off appointment and throughout the wedding itself. Our bridal attendant Julia was so sweet and attentive throughout our wedding, ensuring we always had a drink, frequently checking in, and anticipating our every need. Ruth and Julia are so great at their jobs! For the reception set up and clean up, the staff was so helpful - our bridal party didn’t even have to put away the centerpieces!
Having our wedding at Normandy Farm was also so amazing because everything is on site - excellent restaurant for rehearsal dinner, beautiful outdoor ceremony space, rustic indoor cocktail hour space, gorgeous Grand Ballroom for the reception, huge bar across the hall for the after party, and cozy hotel rooms to stay when the event is all over! If we could do our wedding over again, we would do it at Normandy Farm every time!!!

You know how there are people in this world who always go with the first thing they try or see? That was our experience with Normandy Farm. Getting engaged during the pandemic was stressful and I went into planning mode almost immediately. I emailed or called over 25 venues and Normandy was easily the most responsive and helpful from the beginning. We took a tour and were completely blown away by all of the things that were included in their wedding package. Not to mention the venue itself is stunning and hotel accommodations are also on site! Hello, saving on paying for guest transportation! Brianne was our tour guide and worked with us on securing our contract. She was wonderful and so prompt with her responses. Once we were booked we were then put in contact with other staff whom all acted in the same way - professional, efficient, and lovely. We had our rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception at NF and I would not change a single thing. JoAnne was our event coordinator and I truly cannot say enough glowing things about her. She is 1) the sweetest person and 2) VERY good at her job. She has all the answers, she gets back to you quickly, and is just so clearly an expert at what she does. Our day went off without a hitch largely because of her amazing work and how organized she was. Our rehearsal was run by one of their maître d's, Ruth. She did our drop off appointment and listened to everything that we needed and talked me through everything about the day. For the wedding, our maître d was Marco. Heather was my bridal attendant. When I tell you we did not want for anything - it was non-stop 1:1 attention and service all night. I DIY'd a LOT of things for our reception in the Silos Ballroom and it was all perfectly setup. ALSO the food was amazing! People are still talking about it with us weeks later. The mac and cheese bar was my favorite part and our bridal attendant even brought me an entire bowl with all the toppings to our table during dinner when I told her I hadn't gotten to enjoy it during cocktail hour. Truly it was better than I could have ever imagined. The staff even added complementary décor that went along with my theme to fill out some of the tables.

Everyone we worked with was so friendly, so patient, and so knowledgeable. I loved our day and recommend Normandy Farm 1000 times over for couples who are looking for a venue that is completely amazing at what they do. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

We had our wedding at Normandy Farm in February 2022 and we booked in February 2020. Joanne Nelson was a pleasure to work with throughout our entire planning process. We scheduled several calls to walk through different aspects of the planning and Joanne was always helpful. The day of our wedding, our bridal attendant was Maddie, she was absolutely amazing! She was helpful in bustling my wedding dress before our cocktail hour and checked throughout the reception to make sure it wasn't falling out. She was organized and made sure that none of our items went missing throughout the night. Overall, Normandy Farm was organized, kind, and hardworking to make our day special. We absolutely loved the venue and cannot recommend it enough.

We had our wedding in the Silos Ballroom at Normandy with ~115 guests. I would recommend this venue to any bride. The service was incredible on all fronts, from hotel room block management, event coordination, day of service, food quality, everything was incredible and very affordable compared to many other venues we looked at. You really can't beat having a hotel at the same site as the reception, it makes everything so much simpler. The only recommendation I have for them is to have a bit more flexible for meeting times after booking, as two working professionals, I was a bit surprised when every initial meeting time was between 9-5 on Mon-Fri. We were always able to find a time that suited after a couple different suggestions. This was the only thing that was less than ideal. Normandy truly was a dream to work with on all other accounts. The event coordinator responsiveness was very speedy and she was always very helpful and truly made us feel like she wanted to do everything in her power for us to have a perfect day. The team managing the hotel room block was INCREDIBLE, we had a lot of requests that they managed flawlessly and always with a smile. The day of bridal attendant made the entire event flawless. She went above and beyond to help our family get situated, packed us up with extra food, and made sure there was always a drink in our hands.

I LOVE normandy farm. My experience was so great and the service was excellent. From the very beginning to the very last minute of the reception, I felt at ease and so happy with my choice. They are very clear regarding pricing and what is offered to you. Each step along the way is so simple and easy. People rave about our wedding and the venue. They loved the location, the hotel, the food, the booze, the atmosphere - we loved it all, too! 10/10 would recommend a hundred times again.

Normandy Farm was amazing! They made everything so easy on us, both while planning and on our wedding day. It really was a one-stop-shop. They included the catering, bar, cake, rentals, etc. We had our ceremony & reception at the venue & our guests were able to party at the bar on-site afterwards and stay at the hotel for the night. It was so easy & so beautiful!

Normandy Farm provided us with the most perfect, fairytale wedding. I wouldn't have changed a think about my wedding there. Our wedding planner Ashley was amazing and made sure we didn't have to worry about anything. Everything was so organized and taken care of for us. They truly thought of everything. All of our guests has a fantastic time and were raving about Normandy Farm! The rustic yet modern feel of the venue was exactly what I was looking for. But honestly, THE FOOD is the best part!! Everything served was over the top and unbelievably delicious. We've already been back to the venue's restaurant twice since our wedding! We are already asking our friends to get married here so we can go back and celebrate again!

I cannot say enough good things about Normandy Farms. We got married in the Silos ballroom and it was an absolutley magical day. My bridal attendant, Linda made me feel like it was MY day. She made sure to help me with literally everything without any complaints. Shantelle, my maitre-de was also amazing. These ladies worked well together and made sure to make the day all about me. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous. My guests couldn’t get over just how beautifully decorated everything was. I have a few guests now considering having their weddings there as well!

My husband and I are so happy we had our wedding at Normandy Farm! Everyone working with this venue was so helpful and responsive. From the planning with Heather to all of the people who helped us on the day of- they helped make our wedding perfect!! The food was amazing and the cake was delicious and BEAUTIFUL! Everything was exactly how we wanted it :)

My husband and I recently were married at Normandy Farm Hotel in November. The venue is an absolute gem, especially with the updated décor throughout the hotel. It is the perfect complement of modern chic/rustic detail. I was sad that it rained on our wedding day, but little did I know how absolutely stunning the grounds would turn out in our photographs.
The staff was absolutely wonderful to work with. We had Heather as our wedding coordinator and she was very accommodating and very timely with responses. She would answer as many emails as necessary to make sure that everything is covered. We were very grateful for her!
Overall, We highly recommend this all-in-one venue (there is also a florist and photographer on site that we used that was incredible) Wouldn't have changed a thing. Check this place out !

Loved this venue! The event planners and day of staff were more than willing to help with whatever I needed to make my day perfect!

Two months later and compliments from our loved ones keep pouring in. Our wedding was truly special and beautiful. The space is rustic and elegant, the food and service was great. Kudos to the servers and staff, including Ashley Wenger, Katria, and Allison. We are very grateful.

Normandy Farm is not only a beautiful place to get married, but the venue is so accomplished at putting on events that the whole day was seamless. From hotel blocks to day of coordination, I felt like the staff was intuitive: they always knew what I needed and were ready to help. The night of the wedding, the bridal attendant met us at our trolly, took us to the hospitality room and then was there every time I needed her. The night was a blast and from what I hear, the food was amazing (I was too busy dancing and socializing to eat). I can't wait to attend a wedding there in the future!

Everyone at Normandy Farms is professional and knowledgeable. Anytime I have questions, the turnaround for answers is fairly quick. The staff is friendly and has been helpful as we plan for our big day. Oh, I can't fail to mention how absolutely beautiful this venue is. We fell in love with it right away.

Normandy Farms is awesome! I had such a wonderful experience working with Normandy Farms for my September wedding. From the moment I walked into the hotel I knew I had found the venue. The place has a great rustic old world charm which is just what I was looking for - warm colors, exposed beams. The Silos ballroom was perfect for 75 person guest list. Joanne was our event planner and she was amazing! I'm sure she has done this a thousand times but she greeted us with such enthusiasm it was infectious! She was so great and kept me on top of all of the details. Ursula was our attendant for the night and she was amazing! She followed us with food as we took all our pictures after the ceremony, nobody went hungry. She made sure we always had a drink and kept us on schedule all night. Our Maitre D was Rico and I can't say enough good things about him! Seriously, request him! Such a friendly and positive guy and made my husband and I feel like royalty all night. Any question or request we had all night was taken care of before we could even finish asking!
The whole night was beyond our expectations. After we finished up in the ballroom about 15 of us set up camp in the bar where the staff was equally as friendly. The room for the evening was lovely and the breakfast buffet the next morning for our overnight guests was the perfect way to wrap up the weekend. Our guests raved about the food, service, ballroom, everything! I highly recommend this venue to any engaged couple, you won't regret it!

Can't wait to have our wedding here. So far everyone has been amazing during the planning process!

We had a great time. The venue was beautiful and the staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Having our wedding at Normandy Farm was a dream come true! Not only is it a beautiful property, but we were able to provide our guests with the convenience of having the ceremony, reception and hotel all in one place! Every single thing was incredible. Normandy made sure that every decoration and every moment was perfectly planned and executed. I can honestly say that I was extremely happy with how the day went and I don't have one negative to say. We were facing stormy weather all day and Normandy allowed me to make the final call of whether we wanted to move forward with an outdoor or indoor ceremony. I really wanted it outside and they allowed us to do it there, while still having the inside area ready to go as a backup. We were able to process outside and when it started to rain, we had a smooth transition into the ballroom and picked up right where we left off. It made the evening fun and didn't affect any part of the night! Every staff member was wonderful, accommodating, and professional. I had the pleasure of working with Maura throughout the planing process and she was FABULOUS! She was very responsive and worked very hard to make the day perfect. We also have great praise for the day of Staff as well, Karen, Ursula, and the banquet manager were amazing and were attentive to every single need of myself and the bridal party. The hotel room included in our wedding package for the night of our wedding was absolutely beautiful! It was a huge suite that we were able to use to get ready in as well. Our pictures so far are amazing because of the beautiful grounds they keep there. I could not have dreamed up a more perfect wedding day and we owe a lot of that to Normandy Farm! I highly recommend Normandy for your wedding, you will not be disappointed!!

I knew right away that we had to get married at Normandy – it is so beautiful! Dana Henderson, our wedding coordinator, was absolutely wonderful throughout the entire process. No matter how many emails I sent to ask about our event, she was always extremely friendly and found us an answer. We have received nothing but compliments from our guests about how fantastic the food was and how they couldn’t get enough of it all. In addition to raving about the food that was served, our guests had nothing but amazing things to say about the excellent service they received from the wait staff throughout the entire evening. I know that my husband and I personally received the BEST service we could’ve asked for. Our drinks were never empty, and the staff went out of their way to make sure we (and our families) had whatever we needed. While our guests were enjoying cocktail hour and we were in the bridal suite, I noticed my dress had ripped. As I was freaking out, Ursula (one of many wonderful staff members) ran to get needle and thread, and sewed my dress back together right there in the bridal suite! I couldn’t believe it. She also snuck us into the ballroom to see it all setup before the guests were ushered in. Dana, as well as a number of other staff members, were also there to make sure we loved the room. As soon as I saw everything setup, my breath was completely taken away. It was more beautiful than I could have ever imagined, and they ensured everything I envisioned was brought to life. I know it sounds cheesy, but it is true. When you spend all of the time and money on planning a wedding that you do, it is important to research and choose vendors that will go above and beyond to make sure your day is everything that you want it to be. Normandy was definitely one of those vendors for us, and I can’t thank them enough. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect, we and our guests had a blast, and Normandy Farm played a HUGE role in that. I highly, highly recommend!!
