There are truly no words to capture how perfect Mount Hope Estate and Winery was for our wedding. The venue itself is so tastefully styled, we hardly had to bring any additional decorations. Nicole, Brenna, and the Mount Hope team were genuinely invested in making our day the best day of our lives. They made many creative and helpful suggestions during the planning process. Their transparency, communication, and consistency made the experience so enjoyable and easy. The food and drinks were absolutely top notch. The staff were kind, professional, and efficient. I keep thinking back over the day and thinking to myself, \"There was not a single thing that went wrong or that I would've changed\". How immeasurably valuable is that? I just can't say enough. If you want an inclusive, tasteful, and breathtakingly beautiful wedding experience, look no further. Thank you Mount Hope, from the bottom of our hearts ❤️ Reviewed on 09-10-2023

They made the planning process a breeze, and coming from wedding and event planning myself, that is truly saying something! We truly had the most magical day/night! It was everything we could have hoped for and more. Every one of our guests raved about the food, the venue and the overall fun of the whole day!

They answered every question, worked with us throughout planning, and had recommendations for vendors - which we really appreciated as an out-of-town couple. The venue is beautiful; as two long-time rennies, it was so much fun to take pictures on the Faire grounds. Loved that alcohol and food are all taken care of in-house - less work for us! The chef created a wonderful dinner with a unique hors d'oeuvres display that was perfectly US. Our guests are still talking about the ceremony and reception. Can we do it again?? If you tour the place and love it, do not hesitate! Reviewed on 29-01-2023
Lara Sowers(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 19-11-2022 Mount Hope was our dream venue we didn't know about. The backdrop of the renaissance faire, the multiple areas to have a ceremony, the honestly amazing staff (including a chef who takes pride in every meal being restaurant quality and a bartender who likes a challenge), and the availability of an afterparty area was a dream. Each member of the staff made sure that every possible detail was accounted for to make sure our day went off without a hitch. Our guests continuously spoke of the awe inspiring views and scenes during our ceremony and reception. The food was even better than our tasting and the head chef took special steps for our evening. The availability of an afterparty was a perfect opportunity to have an intimate time with our guests after the chaos. Reviewed on 03-12-2022
