Celebrations at the Bay truly couldn’t have been a better venue for our wedding. From the beautiful venue, to the amazing food, it was a pleasure working with this venue.

Thank you Celebrations for helping to make our day so beautiful.

Drumore Mill is a different world. It is nestled in a corner of the most rustic township in Amish Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The mill was built in 1752 as a sawmill and a grist mill. It sits in a hollow with 30 acres of tall cliffs and old trees to provide privacy, warmth, and natural beauties. There is a pristine creek that meanders through the property. The Fishing Creek supports native trout and other rare small fishes. The waterfall is adjacent to the buildings. There is a hiking trail within the property. There is wetland and much more. The combination of rustic setting, natural beauties, and historical features makes Drumore Mill amazingly beautiful. One has to see it to believe it.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do I even begin?? The Drumore Mill is an oasis. Surrounded by farm land and nestled in a dark green wood, it feels like you’ve entered into a fairytale land. The moment my fiancé (now husband!) and I stepped onto the Drumore Mill property, we knew we needed to exchange our vows here. We got married in the Grist Mill beside the waterfall. I always wanted an indoor/outdoor wedding but hated the idea of a tent wedding. The Grist Mill building is an open air but covered area with tall wooden beams and lots of open windows to allow sunlight in. Thuy was a pleasure to work with throughout my long engagement. She answered all my questions and even showed up the day of my wedding to wash windows at the reception barn! You can tell she really cares about the Drumore Mill. Look, there are a lot of places you can get married. But the Drumore Mill is special because you can return to it. They have charming rustic houses on property you can stay in. You can host a family reunion or a smaller vow renewal ceremony or just go on an anniversary trip there. How many other couples do you know who can stay the night at the place they got married? Because that’s what my husband and I did. We spent our wedding night on property, steps away from where we exchanged vows. We got to wake up the next morning and walk the beautiful grounds of the Drumore Mill taking in all the scenery and relive the memories from the day prior. One of our guests approached my husband during the wedding and said “I want my daughters to get married here”. You can’t get a better compliment than that! So in short, if you’re looking for a one of a kind place, where nature and architecture blend together, and you can return there to reminisce with loved ones—then consider the Drumore Mill. See for yourself what beauty I’m talking about. Because I know my husband and I can’t wait to go back!

We had an amazing experience with Hotel Gettysburg for our wedding reception! From the very beginning, Alaina was wonderful to work with—professional, responsive, patient, organized, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process. She guided us through everything from our tasting and menu selections to linens, room setup, accommodations, and all of the final details. As our plans changed along the way, she was always accommodating and made the process feel manageable. On our wedding day, the ballroom looked beautiful, the food was delicious, and the staff provided excellent service to us and our guests. Everything flowed so smoothly that Mike and I were able to relax, celebrate, and truly enjoy our reception. We also loved the convenience of having our reception and guest accommodations in one location, especially for family and friends traveling from out of town. We are so grateful to Alaina and the entire Hotel Gettysburg team for helping make our wedding day so beautiful and memorable. We would absolutely recommend Hotel Gettysburg to other couples!

Wildflower Estate 
Rating: 4.5 (2 reviews)
Mardela Springs, MD
  • Up to 100 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $3,000

Wildflower Estate is where luxury meets love. Offering both venue-only and all-inclusive packages, our Maryland Eastern Shore estate pairs chic design with lush landscapes. Whether you want a fully planned wedding or the freedom to craft your own, we provide the perfect backdrop for a celebration that’s effortlessly stylish and uniquely yours.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Versatile for various event styles
  • Multiple event spaces
  • Full catering menu to choose from

Venue considerations

  • Not for you if you're looking for a sleek and contemporary space
  • Not for you if you are looking for something nontraditional
  • No on-site guest accommodations
We chose Wildflower Estates as our wedding venue and opted for the Bridal Boutique all-inclusive package since we planned our wedding in less than four months. For a short timeline, the all-inclusive option definitely helped simplify planning and reduce stress. The venue itself is a beautiful modern barn style with several ceremony site options and lovely scenery that makes for a great backdrop. They do offer a backup plan for rain or high winds, which is appreciated, but it’s not ideal for larger weddings (over 40 guests), they move it inside and can only provide seating for about 35 guests so that’s something couples may want to think through. There were several highlights to our experience. Our planner/coordinator (Eventfully Yours) was wonderful. Angie & Kristen were organized, kind, and supportive. The photographer turned out to be amazing and captured our day beautifully. We didn’t know who our florist would be until the day of so I wasn’t able to find or look at a portfolio beforehand, which was nerve-wracking, but thankfully they exceeded expectations. The bartender, Cory also stood out; as the bride and groom, we never had an empty drink. He paid attention to us all night and made sure we were taken care of first, which we really appreciated. There are also some things future couples should know. There is no food tasting beforehand. The cocktail hour food was great, but the main course was disappointing. There is also only one cake/dessert vendor option, which limits personalization. Vendor flexibility is something we wish had been stronger. In hindsight, we might have preferred choosing vendors individually or having multiple vendor options to choose from within the package. Our DJ unfortunately did not meet expectations. The bridal suite is very nice, but for the price point it would be helpful to have a space for the men to get ready onsite as well. A steamer available for day-of use would also be a thoughtful addition. One of the biggest stress points was invoicing for the bar/alcohol. Due to a billing oversight on their end, they were trying to collect payment the morning of our wedding while I was getting ready. That felt inconsiderate and added unnecessary stress to an already busy day. While the package is all-inclusive, there are still behind-the-scenes logistics, and I didn’t feel it should have been my responsibility to stay on top of their billing timeline. Overall, Wildflower Estates provides a beautiful setting and a convenient planning option, especially for couples on a shorter timeline. With better vendor options, clearer billing processes, and a few added amenities, the experience could be even stronger for future couples.

The Lewes Room at Irish Eyes was a fantastic choice for our wedding venue. From the start, their communication was great - they quickly answered all of our questions and made the planning process easy. On the day of, their customer service was top-notch, and they were very accommodating when we ended up running behind due to traffic. The space itself was perfect for our 110 guest wedding, with a beautiful sunset view that made for amazing photos. The dance floor is on the smaller end, but we made it work!
