I had the honor of attending a wedding at the Anthony Wayne house on May 30th. The wedding was an…read moreEnglish garden theme, and the outdoor space was just beautiful for this. The outdoor wedding space was surrounded by woods and had a pergola in the front. The area was surrounded by historic buildings. There was enough room for an outdoor cocktail hour, with some high-top tables and a few normal tables as well. The reception space was an all-weather tent of sorts, with fans, stringed lights, and solid structure that has plastic walls that could be connected in the case of a storm. There was also a fire pit area, which was really nice. The couple chose to make this a smoking/cigar celebratory area, which worked really well. The cocktail hour was very good. Drinks were tasty and strong, and the hors d'oeuvres (many hot butlered plus a meat, cheese, bread, and vegetable table) were varied and delicious. The main course and desserts were very good as well- not standard bland wedding fare. Your place card corresponded to the dinner choice, so at the bottom of my place card was an outline of a carrot to denote that I had ordered the vegetarian entree option. This was an interesting idea (so that the waiters wouldn't have to double-check and take order), but the waiters did seem to have a hard time serving and looking to see what each person ordered and distributing appropriately. Overall, this venue was beautiful. It is for someone who wants to have an outdoors-y wedding and reception and caters to a very specific clientele as such, but everything was great.

Joyce Dugan from the Saturday Club was nice and easy to work with. Since they didn't have a Friday event, they gave us keys on Friday and allowed us to do set up Friday evening and Saturday morning. They did provide the tables and chairs and set them up on Friday for us which was awesome. The employee Chris was there in the office during the wedding if we needed anything. The place is really cute and was the perfect size for our wedding. We had just the perfect amount of room for the number of table and chairs we used and enough room on the dance floor. There is a little area/ private room near the bathrooms that serves as the bridal suite and also a great place to nurse my son and for other nursing moms. The price was great and I love what the money goes towards. I would absolutely recommend this for a wedding of 50-90 guests or for other events. This would also be a great spot for bridal and baby showers. And they worked so well with our caterer. We put the photo booth in the front vestibule area. There is also a coat closet when you first walk in.

She made sure everything was in place to make sure we had the perfect wedding. We also worked with Brielle and Megan, who were both incredible. They were so kind, fun, and attentive. You honestly don't need a planner with all of the people wonderful people at Finely. On the day of, Shannon was my bridal attendant and she was just awesome. The entire staff is first class!

Jokes aside, while that hyperbole is of course not true, thematically it is. As another Yelper pointed out, this is not Tyler or Morris by a long shot. This is basically a small down and back loop with a few short side trails that crisscross the main path, Jenkins Road. The below is a good map that shows that every trail they have here is 1/4 mile or less (sometimes much less) and that the main path is paved blacktop. www.jenkinsarboretum.org/visit/map/ During our 75ish minutes here, we didn't see anyone (I didn't expect to considering it was a Friday afternoon in winter still with snow on the ground) and the parking lot was nearly empty. In terms of what lives/grows here, the below from their site lays it all out. www.jenkinsarboretum.org/garden-highlights/ If you go, thankfully it's free and the hours are basically 9am until dusk year-round. By no means is this a destination stop but we had some time to kill before the next activity and Jenkins provided some nice alternative programming that was enjoyable.

The ENTIRE POMME TEAM helped my sister-in-law have the wedding of her absolute dreams, and every detail was handled with such care and grace. From start to finish, the experience felt seamless and magical. What stood out the most was the warmth of the staff--every single person had a smile, was incredibly kind, and made us all feel like family. That level of hospitality is rare, and it truly elevated the entire celebration. The atmosphere they created was not only elegant and beautiful but also filled with joy and love. George and his team went above and beyond in every way possible. They weren't just hosting an event; they were creating an unforgettable experience. Because of them, my sister-in-law's wedding wasn't just special--it was extraordinary. If you're looking for a venue and a team that will treat your event with the highest level of professionalism, care, and genuine kindness, Pomme is the place. I will forever be grateful for the memories they helped us create!

While our wedding day (4/12/25) turned out beautiful in many ways, the journey getting there was…read moreunnecessarily 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. 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. Now...the bad: 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 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 spin. And it was insulting. 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. $100 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. 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! But then...our coordinator 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. In summary: 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. 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.

The shrimp lejon, clams, wings, pizza, burger, pasta, and everything in between have been great. They always have a specials list which consists of a few different appetizers, entrées, and pizza option. The last few times I have ordered the bone in pork chop with Marsala gravy, mushrooms, and onions. It comes with oven roasted potatoes, asparagus, and I always order a side of french fries and long hots to soak up the excellent Marsala gravy. No doubt it is one of my favorite dishes. They just added a bunch of new TVs, high top tables, and more seating all around. The patio is a great option in warmer weather. Excellent service all around. Vanessa, Laura and Val are great bartenders. My only complaint would be their beer selection. They need to do a better job with the draft list. This is a great spot worth checking out.
