I didn't know it at the time but booking with The Mill was the single handed best decision we made for our wedding. From the moment we entered for our tour we were made to feel like family. Everyone at the Mill is incredibly skilled and professional yet make you feel completely at ease, like talking to old friends. Six months later and our guests are still talking about the food (which is incredible). The views are beautiful, every detail is handle with professionalism, and The Mill remained in contact throughout the entire process. This is truly one of the best places you can get married.

The mill lakeside manor is probably the best venue to ever exist. Now, this sounds like a silly thing to say because there are tons of venues out there, but hear me out. From the beginning I was a skeptic. I wonât lie to you. I flat out said that I wanted to hate this venue because I truly had another venue in mind that I thought was the one. However , halfway home after our tour I turned to my now husband, and said â I want to go back. That is the venue.â So I called Susan, and told her we were going to get the deposit and we will be back.. I AM SAYING YES TO THE VENUE!THe booking process was so seamless, they outline EVERYTHING for you. There is nothing âhiddenâ about what you are paying, and they do listen to you when you say your budget. There is also a very detailed outline of when payments are due. This helped so much in being able to pre plan for upcoming payments. I will say the payments do seem intimidating, and can be stressful, but you really really get what you pay for in service, quantity and quality of food, staffing, everything. This venue is worth every single penny they charge.One of the things I like most about this venue (there's a lot), but I love that when you come to drop off payments you are able to actually walk around and envision your day, and plan ahead for decor, seating, etc.. The staff truly makes you feel extremely welcomed, and it shows how much they love what they do. Susan was probably the most amazing person throughout every aspect of wedding planning as a whole for me. She answered every question I could possibly have, and was such a breath of fresh air to work with. I could probably write half this review just about how great she was to work with.Another favorite of mine is the fact that the cake is in your package. There is no stress at all about finding the perfect place, worrying about delivery, etc.. The partnership with The Chocolate Carousel is AMAZING. All we had to do was call the bakery book our tasting, and have a cake consultation. THAT'S IT! Plus, The Chocolate Carousel is one of my favorites, so I was happy about that too. Lol.Decor drop off is so easy. Confirmation of everything is so seamless and simple. Honestly, I got scared I wasnât as stressed as I thought I âshould beâ because everything was so easy and amazing.Wedding day was seriously beyond words. Susan, Tyler, Julie, Maryann, EVERYONE deserve 10 million gold stars and raises. They are true magic makers. I truly appreciated how comfortable they made everyone feel and confident with everything. I love how organized and on point they were. Like spyâs with their ear pieces. Also I love how SAFE myself and my guests felt there.I wish I could write a million paragraphs about this place, but I will leave my review with this: I had a dream since childhood to be a princess, have the Cinderella wedding, and the Mill made that happen.

We got married here in December 2023 and everything was AMAZING! We had a hindu wedding ceremony (which much of the staff was unfamiliar with) but they worked with us every step of the way and executed it perfectly. Almost as if they've done this 100 times! They handled every step of the planning process with ease and efficiency. Our guests can't stop raving about the incredible cocktail hour and all the FOOD! Everything was so delicious and definitely one of the most memorable parts of the night. The venue is stunning and even for a winter wedding, it was a beautiful event. If I could do it all over again here, I would. It's 100% worth the cost. Don't go anywhere else other than The Mill! They also host tons of events and experiences for alumni after your wedding to stay connected :) Reviewed on 18-12-2023

The staff, the food, the views, the ambiance - it was all picture perfect!From the first time I met Susan, she was professional, sweet and would do absolutely anything to make our day everything we had envisioned. She was always quick to respond and always went above and beyond. Tyler, who was our coordinator the day of the wedding, was nothing short of exceptional. The whole ceremony and reception was perfect due to himself, he was attentive to every detail and extremely easy to work with and be comfortable with!The day was absolutely breath taking, and every single person we have talked to has told us that it was the BEST wedding they have ever been to!

The Mill is the absolute best wedding venue! My husband and I got married 11/9/23 and it was the most perfect day. The staff is top notch - from the coordinators (shout out Racquel!), bridal attendants (Julia!), the maitre d (Tyler!), chef and servers, everyone was so professional and kind. They are there for all of your needs and make the wedding planning process seamless and stress free. This venue has it all - decor you can use, a list of recommended vendors, checklists for wedding planning, and an overall great atmosphere. They really take care of you here and you can tell they care so much about all of their couples. We got so many compliments on how beautiful the venue and grounds were, the food, and the staff.

My husband and I got married 10/7/23! We not only had the most amazing day, but the Mill was so incredible to work with leading up to our special day. From the beginning the Mill (specifically Sue) was so responsive! She immediately answered alllll of my crazy emails and made me feel so confident in my decision! Our day was absolutely perfect and all of the staff was amazing! Our guests could not get over the cocktail hour. The food was incredible both in cocktail hour and the reception.

The Mill is THE BEST. I canât imagine getting married anywhere but the Mill after the wedding day we had! From the day we walked in to our tour through today (3 weeks post wedding!) Sue, Tyler and the whole team made us feel so loved and appreciated and amazing. They listened to every detail and thing we asked and without hesitation or question accommodated our wants and needs. Our wedding was above and beyond what we could have imagined and we are soo thankful. There were 0 flaws from the Mill team! We got so many compliments about the fantastic service, the food, the venue, all of it. My husband and I felt so cared for and attended to throughout the whole day. The Mill provided us with the ABSOLUTE best day of our lives and I have been telling all my friends to get married there just so I can go back. They also provided us with their recommended vendors and every single one was amazing. Thereâs so much competition in the wedding industry and itâs hard to know whoâs reliable so this was an amazing detail from them. The whole day and the venue and the team were just absolutely amazing. I hope every couple gets to have the day that we had and without the Mill team this wouldnât be possible. Donât even think about another venue, this is the place to have your wedding. We canât wait to go back!! Reviewed on 05-10-2023

We toured two venues, this one first - and INSTANTLY fell in love and booked it the next day. The team at The Mill are all amazing to work with and will make it the most perfect day for you. They are so kind, helpful, and answer any and all questions you have during the entire planning process. You canât beat how beautiful the grounds are, the spacious areas for cocktail hour & reception, and how they have both a bridal and a groom suite to hang in! I could go on and on about this venue, but Iâll end with what everyone raved about: THE FOOD! All of my guests (and ourselves) cannot stop talking about our wedding, it was truly perfect.

The view was breathtaking with the lake and flowers everywhere. Our guests also couldn't stop talking about how fantastic the food was! Not only was the venue perfect, but the staff were extraordinary. Jewel and Richard helped us with so much and answered all of my questions so quickly & professionally.

When we initially toured the venue, another couple and their parents were picking up their decor and they were telling us how great the venue was and that we wouldnât regret choosing The Mill (flash forward two years later, they were right). After our tour, my then-fiancĂŠ immediately said he loved it (which was huge because he found cons with every other venue that we toured). From start to finish, working with The Mill team was totally stress-free. They provided us with everything we needed to know (payment due dates, measurements, vendor recommendations, etc.) in advance, which made planning a breeze! The day of our wedding, we had a handful of guests arrive late for the ceremony due to an accident, but Richard and The Mill team still ensured everything went smoothly and that my husband and I werenât stressed. Weâve had so many guests tell us that it was the best wedding they have ever been to.

At the time, we were living in Maryland, so we didnât expect for The Mill to be the venue we ended up choosing. As soon as we pulled up to The Mill, we realized that there was a possibility that we would be traveling to NJ for our wedding day! After meeting the staff, touring the venue, and hearing about the amazing white swan packageâwe were in love. Due to the location, we continued to tour venues in the MD/PA/NJ area but we found ourselves comparing every place to The Millâso we decided to go for it, and we are SO glad that we did! Our planning process, the preferred vendors list, and all of the organizational tools that The Mill provided were wonderful and made wedding planning so easy. In addition to that, all of the staff members we worked with (Jackie, Jewel, Raquel, Devon, and Richard, to name a few) were so responsive and happy to help with any questions we had. All of the decor that The Mill provided was amazing and of the utmost quality--from the centerpieces to all of the Christmas decor that they left up for us for the first week of January! When it came time to our food tasting, my (now) husband and I decided to bring both of our parents along. It was such a fun night out all together and after tasting all of the incredible food, all six of us left feeling so full, happy, and excited about our decision to get married at The Mill. After our final details meeting with Richard, I was able to relax and truly felt like everything for our wedding day was going to be perfectly taken care of. The day of our wedding was, and will most likely be for a very long time, the absolute best day of our lives. Every. Single. Detail. was perfection. From the time I arrived and got ready in the beautiful, bridal suite, to having our first look in front of The Mill, to our wonderful indoor ceremony, the incredible food (it truly speaks for itself-so good), the drinks (the bartenders were amazing), and all of the fun had on the dance floor.

Megan Mitchell(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-10-2022 Oh my god. I genuinely don't know if I will be able to fully convey just how INCREDIBLE the Mill and their staff are. My husband and I got married on 10.30.22 and we truly start crying happy tears any time we think about our wedding day. I cannot thank them enough for everything they did to ensure we had the most enchanting day. I want to start first with our experience as a couple in planning:Jacqueline (our wedding coordinator) went above and beyond on multiple occasions to help us out and ensure that our wedding was exactly what we wanted. At the time, my fiancĂŠ and I were living on the West Coast- everyone at the Mill was very accommodating of the time difference and our limited availability of coming on site. Richard (the Maitre D) was also incredibly attentive to details and responsive to messages. We were impressed with Richard and Jackie's ability to anticipate things we need and quick to problem solve. Richard and Jackie always led with yes. Anything we asked for they worked to see how they could make that work. It made the process so much easier knowing that they were working WITH us not against us. We really were a team. Not only does The Mill have a lot of decorations and supplies on site, but they take care of little details too if you forget (example: we wanted to hang our neon sign but when I dropped off the decor two days before the wedding we realized we didn't have zip-ties. It was not a problem at all. I offered to get some but Jackie immediately said no and took care of it herself.) You truly couldn't be in better hands than at The Mill.The day of: Everything was perfect. Literally. They have a strong group of staff members that truly take care of everything. The entire day went smoothly and my husband and I did not have to worry about a single thing. (Even when he ripped his pants. Julia the bridal attendant quickly rushed to get a giant box of supplies that had safety pins that we used to patch him up)From our guests: The food was FANTASTIC. So many of my guests lost their minds during the cocktail hour with all of the different options. Not to mention the dinner was phenomenal AND seconds were offered. We got a lot of feedback from our friends that the bar staff was great, even at the busiest they didn't have to wait more than 30 seconds to get a drink. This was essential to keeping the dance floor full. Staff was respectful, kind, and professional. Our guests keep saying this was the best wedding that they've ever attended.Do not hesitate to book The Mill. I'm so serious. The venue itself is breathtaking, the town of Spring Lake is gorgeous, but it is the staff at The Mill that really made the entire experience so special. We truly felt as if we were part of the family. I cannot thank them enough for everything they did for us. Reviewed on 04-11-2022

My husband and I got married on 10/14 and I am still smiling from the day, which is due in large part to The Mill and the entire staff.

Natasha Bali(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 01-05-2022 My now-husband and I were on our way to tour a different wedding venue, and called for a somewhat last minute appointment with the Mill because it was in the same area. Driving home from our tour at the Mill, we were both kind of stunnedâneither of us could think of a single flaw. The gorgeous outdoor ceremony space, the lake, the incredible cocktail hour area with the fireplace, open kitchen and a menu that beat out anything we couldâve imagined. Once we booked, we kept hearing amazing things about the food, and fantastic reviews about the staff. Youâre given a menu tasting a few months before your wedding date, which is really nice since not every place offers a tasting. We were able to try so many dishes from the dinner and dessert menu and the chef came out to discuss some of the selections with us. Our table was even decorated with roses and a beautiful little sign to welcome us. A week or so before the wedding, I had an idea for one of our signature drinks to include edible flowers and had a really hard time finding anything. I even asked our florist and hit nothing but dead-ends. I spoke to our coordinator Jackie about what I was thinking and she called me THAT AFTERNOON to tell me she could get us the flowers, no problem.We went into our wedding day with high expectations based on the tasting, the incredible reviews and our overall experience so far and the team at the Mill still blew us away. We were treated like royalty, and our guests raved about the amazing quality and variety of the menus from cocktail through dessert. The maitreâd Richard is incredible, he has such a great sense of humor and is so kind. We didnât miss a beat as he kept us all on track both prior to and throughout the day.I canât compliment the team who run this beautiful venue enough.

First off, we are a COVID couple that had to postpone due to the pandemic and the Mill was so incredibly helpful with navigating that process. Taylor and Jackie were there for us through literally everything. I feel like after two years working with them they might as well be family! They are so responsive, helpful and just amazing in every way! They even provided us with their social tables software to make doing tables easy peasy (gone are the days where you had to use sticky notes on a foam board which is what I thought we would have to do). From the moment you step foot in the Mill from your first tour to your wedding day youâll see that the service and attention to detail is second to none! So many of our guests commented on the exquisite service and were truly just so impressed because it was nothing theyâve ever experienced before anywhere else. On the day of your wedding as the bride or groom you literally donât even have to worry about a thing because you can put your full trust in your maitreâ D Richard and the team at the Mill. Richard is incredible, like the best maitreâ D to ever exist. He runs such a tight ship and makes sure everything is perfect. I was almost in tears at the end of our night telling Richard how perfect the night was. Our Bridal Attendant Lada literally made sure we never had an empty drink and was so wonderful and attentive. I could honestly just go on and on about the service but Iâll stop myself because thereâs so much more that needs to be talked about. Itâs truly nothing you or your guests have ever seen or experienced before and it will truly blow you away. Next up is the food. I can be picky and when I say it is the best food that my mouth has ever tasted that is not an exaggeration. Our guests also raved about the food and were so impressed with the option for second portions of any of the dinner choices. Every new place I ever eat is now going to be compared to the Millâs food and sadly nothing is likely to live up to it. Cocktail hour is extensive and thereâs not a single thing that doesnât taste incredible. And then lastly, I canât not mention just how stunningly classy and beautiful the venue itself is. Super clean, super modern yet elegant and just perfect. If you truly want to have a wedding that people will rave about and be the wedding everyone tries to live up to you need to stop looking at venues and just book with the Mill. You will not be disappointed. Reviewed on 14-02-2022
Lauren Kelly(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-01-2022 From the time we booked in summer 2019, we loved the customer service, and personal touches the venue can add to your wedding day. We truly learned how above, and beyond this company goes once we entered the pandemic, and we decided to postpone our wedding from our original date to late January of 2022. While this experience of postponing was challenging, and emotionally difficult, The Mill and our coordinators, Ashley and Jackie, were empathic, and professional as we moved our wedding date. Throughout the planning process, with some fear of possible increasing COVID restrictions during Fall/Winter of 2021/2022, Jackie was open, and honest when we asked some difficult questions. We really appreciated her transparency, and honesty. To top off our eventful wedding planning process, the night before our wedding we had a major norâeaster that brought us well over a foot of snow. Stressed with other aspects of the wedding, like making sure all our vendors were able to make it the following day, we had trusted The Mill without any worry that their venue would be open and ready-to-go for us. By the next day, the grounds of The Mill looked beautiful, and snowy. All our guests arrived safe, and were astonished by the views. Our cocktail hour was outstanding, with so many food options that all our guests were highly satisfied with. Our guests continue to talk about how great all the food was from cocktail hour to dessert! My husband, and I had a private cocktail hour in the bridal suite where our food was brought to us to enjoy. This was one of my favorite moments of the day, because it caused us to slow down, and truly enjoy some time alone (which we definitely did, as we enjoyed the food and our signature drinks). Our bridal attendant, Heidi, was so helpful from bustling my dress perfectly, to always making sure myself, my husband, and our families had exactly what they needed throughout the night. She was kind, helpful, and professional! She even packed up the cocktail hour food, our dinners, and desserts that we didnât have time to eat for us to enjoy the next day! Our Maitre D, Richard, was fantastic since day one when we met him during our tasting. He set up the decor perfectly, and understood our vision very well. He also kept the night moving steadily and smoothly. He organized our bridal party quickly for the reception entrances. Throughout the night, he worked in the background to make sure everything went perfectly for us, which definitely did not go unnoticed by my husband, and I. Richardâs humor, kindness, and professionalism made him the perfect Maitre D for our wedding reception. We appreciate him so much and cannot say enough great things about him! Overall, both myself and my husband, cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed our experience working with The Mill, and all the staff members! We will recommend this venue to any couple who is looking for a great, friendly, and professional team; a fantastic range of food cuisines that tasted amazing (thank you Chef Hassan!); and an overall enchanting wedding reception that you and your guests will never forget.

Gabrielle Pirro(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 26-11-2021 My now husband and I have been working with the Mill since we picked them as our venue back in 2018! Like most other couples, we did not expect a pandemic to require us to change our date 3 times! Jackie and Ashley were so helpful every time we needed to change the date, and they tried to make it as stress-free as possible. We finally were able to have our full, 190-person wedding at the Mill on Nov 26, 2021. A few days before the wedding, I went to the Mill to set up all of our decor. Richard was there to assist us, and he was beyond helpful throughout the whole process. When the day of the wedding arrived, I knew that every detail was exactly how we wanted it to be. Richard kept things running smoothly throughout the night, and somehow made sure our rowdy bridesmaids/groomsmen were in the right places at the right time. Lada was our bridal attendant, and she made sure we always had a drink in hand and that we ate plenty of food throughout the night. Our guests are still raving about the food and drinks (and I am still dreaming about the chocolate molten cake). I really cannot recommend the Mill enough to any brides looking for the perfect venue.

The Mill even provided us with decor options that catered to multiple themes that all reflected the beauty of the venue on the lake.We had Taylor as our wedding coordinator to help us plan our big day and from the minute we began working together she paid special attention to each and every detail that made our wedding day beyond exceptional. Taylor went above and beyond by answering all of our questions no matter when or how often. What made us love her the most was how genuinely excited she was for us to get married and took the time to get to know us, forming a true friendship. That connection we formed made the entire process seamless, special, and enjoyable! Not only did Taylor help us with the whole planning of our special day, but she also helped us decorate the entire venue the day before. She was there every step of the way and we truly are so grateful because of her attentiveness, our day was flawless. Jackie is truly an expert at what she does. She meticulously handled all the important details of our day and made sure any requests we had were tended to. She even went out of her way to ask and order us our favorite brand and type of wine to have just for us at the sweetheart table. She was always there to answer any questions we had about venue decorations, protocols, timelines, and we can confidently say we never had a single worry about anything the entire night. We had Richard as our MaĂŽtre dâ and saying he was the best would be an understatement! From the first time we met Richard to the day after the wedding, we have formed a friendship that we will cherish forever. He effortlessly ran the day and he is a true master at what he does.

Jackie and Taylor were so amazing to work with- especially given that we were planning a wedding from Washington, DC and during COVID. They responded to every question or concern promptly, double checked on our preferences for decor arrangement or menu choice, and made us feel so much less anxious. They assured us that precautions were being taken due to COVID, which made us feel so much more comfortable moving forward with our wedding.

Igor created beautiful and delicious signature cocktails (which all our guests loved!).

They paid attention to every little detail including our dog Bruce, when I walked into my bridal suite there was a cute note saying \"goodluck mom\" and a picture of Bruce. Everything they have done for us meant so much and we truly appreciate it. Lada our bridal attendant went above and beyond! All of our guests are still raving about the service, food, and how beautiful the venue is. To top it off we had a beautiful 70 degree day in March and during our outdoor ceremony the swans were out. We're so thankful we chose The Mill for our wedding and we want to thank the entire staff at The Mill for making our wedding day the best day EVER! Reviewed on 19-03-2021
Alexandra Cavallo(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-03-2021 Alexandra C. & Kieran OThere is so much that we could say, but to start, THANK YOU to all the staff at The Mill at Lakeside Manor. From the moment we stepped onto the property for a tour, we knew immediately it was THE ONE. From the welcoming and caring staff to the beautiful ambiance and exquisite dĂŠcor; it was not a hard decision to make at all! We immediately fell in love with the venue. Planning a wedding in the middle of a pandemic was extremely stressful, but The Mill made is SO easy and did whatever they could to alleviate the stress factor. Kieran and I had the pleasure of working closely with Ashley and Richard and they were both absolutely amazing. We have received endless amounts of compliments on how amazing the food, staff and service was ! The cocktail hour was one of our favorite parts, so we knew our guests would not be disappointed! We highly recommend The Mill at Lakeside Manor without hesitation and would do it all over again if we could! Reviewed on 09-03-2021
Margaret Knapp(parent)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 24-10-2020 Did you recently get engaged? Congratulations! Hereâs a suggestion: Contact the Mill ASAP. If, in addition to all the usual questions and concerns that go with planning a wedding, you have the pandemic to worry about, Jackie Truesdale and the staff at the Mill will be all the help you need. Jackie is professional, kind, patient, and supported by a staff who is also professional, kind, and patient. They helped our family experience a perfect evening. Yes, it was smaller than we had originally planned, but the joy shared by those who were able to make it was overwhelming! The Mill is beautifully appointed both inside and out. The food is abundant, varied, and deliciously prepared. The service is attentive and generous. What made our experience particularly noteworthy, however, was the frequent tweeks to the plans as laws and best practices changed due to Covid. Jackie stayed on top of what could and could not be done and advised us every step of the way. We are forever grateful! Reviewed on 28-12-2020
Alexa Power(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 03-10-2020 Thank you to The Mill for our dream wedding! My husband and I were supposed to get married at The Mill in December... With all of the circumstances and our concerns, Jackie and her team offered us to bump our date UP EARLIER to have our dream wedding outside in October. At first, I was concerned about having a wedding in âa tentâ but it wasnât a tent at all. The Mill created the most beautiful outside venue we have ever seen. I saw Jackieâs vision for the outside area and we put all of our trust in her. We are SO glad we did because it was amazing. Thank you to Jackie and her team for being awesome and flexible during the entire process! The day was perfect! Reviewed on 05-12-2020
Danielle Blackwell(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 23-10-2020 We cannot thank the Mill enough for hosting our wedding. We were originally supposed to get married at a related venue, but when COVID hit, we knew we needed to host a smaller, safer, outdoor wedding. Our original venue couldnât accommodate an outdoor reception, and so we were able to move to the Mill! All I can say is, I canât believe this wasnât our first choice. It was better than anything I could have imagined. From the beautiful garden to the modern decor, everything complimented our wedding decor beautifully.Honestly, by the time we transferred to the Mill I was exhausted and stressed with not knowing if my wedding was even going to happen. I was nervous because they hadnât hosted many outdoor receptions up until that point, but Jackie would text me pictures to help me visualize our day and answer all of my questions - easing my concerns. Working with Judy, I got all of my excitement back again. What a sweetheart! I sent her pictures of how I wanted everything to look on the day of and she executed it perfectly.Thank you so much to Jackie, Judy, Heidi, and the entire team at The Mill for making my dream wedding come to life! Our guests are still raving that it was the best wedding theyâve ever been to, there was more food + drinks than they could ever want and the service was just impeccable. The crew made sure everyone was safe and comfortable, and I donât feel like my wedding experience was limited in anyway. I hope someone I know gets married here so I can come back and enjoy it again!

Tanya Jargowsky(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-10-2020 If you are looking for the perfect wedding venue, look no further. With the ongoing pandemic and uncertainty, we postponed our original wedding date and moved to The Mill from Clarks Landing Point Pleasant to accommodate the wedding outdoors. Kristen & the team were amazing to work with giving us various options to have our wedding safely. Planning a wedding during COVID is extremely stressful & I canât say how thankful I was to have had an amazing team to work with to put me at ease. Kristen, Nicole, Judy, Jackie and team did an amazing job listening to our vision and pulling the details together within such a short timeframe. It blew my expectations completely out of the water and that was only the planning process pre-wedding!For our wedding day, the service was top notch from the bridal attendants to the staff. They ensured my husband and I were fed, always had a drink in our hands and even had eyelash glue to help with my eyelashes that were coming off (who would have thought!) The whole team, especially Judy and Jackie, made everything run so smoothly while ensuring all guests felt safe with the ongoing pandemic. I give them major kudos since they made it look so easy!To this day, all my guests still rave about the delicious and plethora of food (bacon me crazy cocktail hour station - highly recommend!) the gorgeous grounds and the quality and professionalism of service from the staff. I knew that The Mill had a great reputation but I can honestly say that I feel like the team outdid themselves. I canât recommend them enough! Reviewed on 05-11-2020
Marlaena Lowery(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-10-2020 We chose the Mill for the beautiful scenery as well as the above and beyond staff. During our viewing, we were shown the facility and I was personally really impressed with the bridal suite accommodations. The dresser drawer was filled with items a bride and her crew may need for last minute fix ups or forgotten items. When we left our first visit, we were given treats for our pet cat Ozzy, which myself and my now husband really took note of. We mentioned how much we love our cat and that gesture really made me feel like they listened to our requests/wants. My husband did a lot of the correspondence with me CCed in emails. We were always greeted quickly with a response and felt we got all the answers we needed. This helped us coordinate our vendors quickly and get everything in order. When covid began in March, we had our concerns and thought like everyone else at the time that this would pass by October (our wedding was on 10/15/20). As month after month went on, we did get concerned hearing horror stories. We did not experience any of this with The Mill! The tasting was set outside and socially distanced between other couples. Our questions and concerns were met with ease and while we had reservations, we were always put to ease immediately. The day of the wedding was very exciting and while this may be their profession where they see brides and grooms almost daily, they were just as ecstatic as we were! They made sure everything was organized adhered to the schedule. Social distancing and temperature checks were practiced and all the staff wore masks. We were waited on hand and foot. The bridal suite was given champagne as well as an assortment of meats and fruits. It was a great way to calm any nerves! There was a speaker to connect your phone to play music, which really helped add to the relaxing atmosphere. The groomsmen suite had an Xbox for their entertainment, too! The ceremony, reception, first dance, and dinner were all beautifully put together. Everyone felt comfortable. We had less than 98 guests and were safely out on the deck with a beautiful view of the lake and nature. We still get compliments on the food! Overall, the experience was lovely. Planning a wedding during a pandemic was very stressful, but The Mill eased our worries multiple times and handled all our concerns like bosses. Everyone is happy and healthy! Were thriving in married life and cannot sing everyone's praises at The Mill enough! Judy and Taylor from start to finish coordinated it all to perfection. Reviewed on 01-11-2020
Krystine Giammarino(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 12-10-2020 We had our wedding at The Mill on October 12, 2020, which was our backup date since we had to postpone our April date. The Mill worked with us to plan a smaller, 100-person wedding that complied with CDC guidelines. From start to finish, the day was absolutely perfect, and for one night we were able to forget about the pandemic and enjoy our family and friends. The Mill worked with us to give us just as much as we would have had if we had the full 240-person affair. They made sure our family and friends were comfortable and safe. The entire day was incredible thanks to Judy, Jackie, and the whole staff at The Mill. Our guests raved about the food, the service, the decor, and the attention to detail. At one point, my friend arrived with her dress split down the back. Jackie ushered her into a private room and the staff sewed up her dress and made her a plate from cocktail hour so she wouldnât miss any of the food. Another guest of ours has food allergies, and the chef made her a special, allergen-free dinner. This is the level of service you pay for at The Mill. My husband and I wanted for nothing on our wedding day. At every turn, the staff was there to make us comfortable, feed us the most amazing food, and help us with anything we needed. They were also incredible to our parents and siblings, who were treated like royalty all night. If I could change anything about the day, I wouldnât. Everything was beautiful and unforgettable.

Alyssa Petillo(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 09-09-2020 The Mill is incredible. We had our COVID wedding and could not be more excited about how the day went. Originally suppose to be outdoors, Murphy lifted restrictions the weekend before our wedding... thank goodness, because it was beyond humid for our special day. Despite being seated for cocktail hour, we had a blast! People were served a ton of food, and raves about the entire night despite it not being a âtypicalâ wedding! The patio is set up beautifully with lights under the tent to enjoy some time near the lake as well. My husband and I are over the moon and so glad we went with The Mill! Garrett, Judy, Gabe and Jacqueline were incredible to work with from start to finish and throughout the night. If youâre debating a COVID wedding, STOP AND JUST DO IT! Youâll never know the difference with the way they ran our night! Reviewed on 17-09-2020
