​The Washington was everything my husband and I had ever dreamed of and so much more. When we got…read moreengaged, we knew we wanted something unique, something us, someplace no one had ever been. We wanted our guests to walk into our venue and say 'WOW this is so Matt and Erin.' Mission accomplished! This was our one and only venue we toured. From the gorgeous courtyard where we were married, to the ruins where we took pictures, to the gorgeous reception space with its stunning original hardwoods and beautiful chandlers, it was everything we had hoped to find. Working with Allie was a dream - she transitioned out right before our wedding but their current venue manager, Brittany was absolutely wonderful and picked up where Allie left off seamlessly. Getting ready that day was so wonderful thanks to the beautiful bridal suite and my hubby-to-be was thrilled to have the grooms suite. We had viewed several online that provided no where for him to get ready - it's his day too! That was a must for us. Our guests loved wandering the property during cocktail hour and could not get over how beautiful The Washington is. We could not have asked for a more perfect day or a more perfect venue. I wish I could do it all over again!

Our guests had a blast roaming the grounds and the rooms inside, as well as dancing the night away on the terrace, which was surprisingly breezy for a warm August night! People were taking selfies all over the house and gardens because every angle is a perfect photo back drop. We had a long engagement, made longer still by Covid, and Elizabeth was just incredibly warm, considerate, accommodating, professional, and just all-around lovely the entire time. When it came to the big day, Elizabeth was there, guiding us through it and making sure the day went off without a hitch! Choosing this venue was seriously the best decision. We are both forever grateful to Elizabeth and her team!

We schedule an in-person tour and met with the JAM representative. Within the first few minutes my partner and I turned to each other knowing this was it. Welkinweir Estate is not only a beautiful venue but the JAM staff have been nothing short of amazing during this entire experience. HIGHLY recommend!

Welkinweir is an Old English word that translates to "where sky meets water." So named is the…read moreformer estate of Everett and Grace Rodebaugh, founding members of the Green Valleys Association (whose focus is on land preservation). The property is 197 acres with a 55-acre arboretum. The house is a c.1940 Fridtjof Tobiessen Colonial Revival creation, that encompasses prior historic c.1830 and c.1750 structures. The estate has been open to the public since 2000, and has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 2001. Everett George Rodebaugh (b1902), a 1922 UPenn alum, founded a court-reporting service in Philadelphia that boosted him to national prominence. The Rodebaughs had no children and traveled the world, but unlike the heavy Euro influence adopted by the DuPont estates in nearby Brandywine Valley, Welkinweir has remained true to its plein air, Weyethesque look. I was recently at Stoneleigh, where I expected William Powell to walk out of the house with a smoking jacket and a G&T. Welkinweir felt more like Spencer Tracy's hunting spot, if he ever had one. Welkinweir is located on Prizer road, a picturesque street of swank multi-mil horse farms, with a winery (Stone Barn Cellars) at the Pottstown Pike end. You head up the drive and around a hairpin turn, you are upon the house, so much so, you might hit it! Drive past the house, and parking will appear. A patio leads you to an info center on the exterior wall, with an abundance of brochures. Use the trail map to walk yourself around the hiking options on the property. Yes, this is a hike, so dress in sneaks or boots and comfortable clothing. There are various trail options, but we did the simple loop around the huge pond, and then explored the grounds by the house, and Pinetum in front of the house. We did about 3mi on the pedometer. We'd have loved to stay longer, but with dogs and a baby in the cold, 3miles was a comfortable stopping point. You could easily make this an all-day hiking destination. They have a large picnic shelter, with a nearby firepit area for warmer weather. There are also port-a-potties near the picnic area. House tours are normally available only to groups when set up in advance, but if you call to request it, they can sometimes accommodate smaller parties. According to what I've read, the house contains a rare pipe organ, letters and private documents of the Rodebaughs, and the DL on when they got robbed of a $250k silver set by one of their own house guests! As indicated, dogs are allowed on the trails and in the arboretum. They do need to be leashed and cleaned up after, of course. I am so happy to have found Welkinweir! I am fortunate to have so many cultural resources at my fingertips, locally, but I wish Welkinweir were closer because it has such a great vibe, and has been so lovingly tended and well thought-out, with the amenities of a state park, in addition to the museum garden thing going on. Very very special place! * * * Note: at the time of this review, Welkinweir is not open on weekends. Weekdays only! * * * Note: They offer afterhours guided nature walks throughout the year (including winter).

We booked Waynesborough CC for our wedding reception. It was absolutely wonderful!!…read more I can't say enough about Helen Kesaris, who is WCC's Catering Director. She did an amazing job, and the event rolled by so smoothly, it was over before we knew it :-( The cocktail was in the front "club bar", which is a beautiful mahogany bar & lounge, with a huge outdoor terrace. It was a beautiful day, and our guests enjoyed the drinks and butler-ed hors'dourves outside. After the cocktail, everyone moved into the huge ballroom, which also had an outdoor terrace. The view of the sunset behind the endless grassy golf course and trees was breathtaking. The best thing about WCC is that they only have one ballroom, one event at a time. There was no confusion who's event was where, like some of the other wedding I had been to. I highly recommend WCC for any classy event. The food is excellent and the location is simply beautiful. I will post some of our great shots! WCC made for a beautiful backdrop to our most perfect day.

Though we were nervous…read moreat first about there being one exclusive caterer and an assigned day-of coordinator, everything turned out wonderfully. From the planning documents to the tasting, the experience leading up to the wedding was intentional and made us feel so special. It is obvious how much attention and care the Peachtree team puts into their service of each individual guest. We can't say enough good things about the staff. We got so lucky to have the team we did, who told us repeatedly that we had amazing guests and the vibes were high. Namely, George, Karen, and Steph made our big day possible. George sought out our vegan guests and made sure they got enough of their appetizers and desserts. Neither of us were without a drink or anything else we needed because of Karen's care and attention. Steph executed all of our dreams wonderfully and accepted our feedback with grace when things needed tweaking. At the end of the night, our hotel shuttle forgot about us, so my wife and I also were able to chat more with the staff, and they genuinely all seemed so happy to be with us. This was absolutely a highlight of our day! Food was my wife's number one most important line item when it came to our wedding, especially having been served less than ideal meals as vendors and seeing the same things over and over. Multiple reviews of Peachtree told us what we needed to know, and we were confident about the menu options. During the tasting, we were a little thrown off because there weren't many items that we loved, but our coordinator reminded us that they're choosing things to present that you wouldn't have necessarily chosen on your own. Our wedding day food was truly unreal, hands down the best wedding food I've had. All our guests were RAVING about it too!

Wedding at Pomme - April 12, 2025 While our wedding day…read moreturned out beautiful in many ways, the journey getting there was unnecessarily stressful and left us with more regrets than we ever anticipated. For future couples considering Pomme: proceed with caution and a clear understanding of what you're walking into. Let's start with the good: * The venue itself is gorgeous. We had to move our ceremony indoors at the last-minute due to weather, which I was heartbroken about, but I'll admit that the space still looked stunning. It's flexible and modern, giving couples a great canvas to make their own, which was a huge reason we chose Pomme. * The food and drinks were outstanding. Our guests raved about the cocktail hour, especially the cheesesteak station. And the Pineapple Margarita (our signature drink) was a crowd favorite. * Service during the event was, for the most part, excellent. Guests told us it was some of the best they've experienced, especially how dinner was served in unison. * Special shoutout to the lovely woman who took care of my husband and me in the bridal suite and during dinner. I regret not remembering her name, because she was truly a highlight. She made sure we were fed, hydrated, and relaxed in the middle of the madness. Now...the bad: Our experience leading up to the day -- and even parts of the day itself -- left us hurt, frustrated, and frankly, angry. * I showed up to the rehearsal with my parents, grandparents, and wedding party excited to walk through what was supposed to be the first look at our ceremony setup. Instead, we walked into a construction site. Tarps, ladders, open buckets of white paint, and men actively painting -- at the literal spot where I was to say my vows in less than 24 hours. No warning. No apology. Just a smile and a comment from our coordinator Steph about how "lucky" we were to be the first wedding of the season with a "fresh coat of paint." That was not reassurance -- that was a spin. And it was insulting. * Steph, our coordinator, was not the right fit. Our personalities didn't mesh from the beginning, but more importantly, I never felt prioritized or truly cared for. I didn't feel like a bride. I felt like a line item. Looking back, I wish I'd asked for someone else early on. * Be prepared to spend thousands more than your initial quote. Nearly everything costs extra, and I don't mean small add-ons. - $200 for a case of Miller Lite (yes, really). $55 for a bottle of Prosecco. And no, you can't bring your own drinks in the bridal suite. - $1,400 for string lights (they put them up and take them down between every wedding just to ensure they can keep charging for them). - $200/hour extra for time in the bridal suite, because the included five hours are never enough when doing a first look. - Signature drinks, bridal suite food, even basic setup -- all à la carte and wildly overpriced. No one even bothered to tell me in the beginning that a big majority of gluten-free options (I have celiac disease) would cost extra. A huge reason why we chose Pomme in the first place. * We were told the staff wouldn't help us set up the day-of, so we planned accordingly. But they did it anyway, which was a pleasant surprise! It looked beautiful, and we were grateful. But then... Steph left. At 9:30pm. The only person who knew all our plans and logistics was suddenly gone without prior warning. By 11pm, it felt like pure chaos. Décor was being boxed up randomly, no one knew what belonged where or what was being donated, and I was being pulled in a million directions. Instead of heading to our after-party, I was left running damage control. I didn't even make it to the after-party because I was so drained. That last hour felt like the rug was pulled out from under us. In summary: Yes, the space is beautiful. Yes, the food is memorable. But beauty and bites only go so far when the process is riddled with stress, miscommunication, hidden fees, and a lack of care. We spent a lot of money -- and what should have been the most joyful day of our lives still carries a sting. I wish I had known all of this beforehand. After talking to other recent brides, it seems like I was the only one dealing with these unnecessary issues. If you're considering Pomme, ask every question, get everything in writing, and advocate hard for yourself. Because I didn't -- and I regret it.
