David’s Country Inn is truly the most incredible place you could have by your side on your wedding day. From the very beginning, they made us feel completely at ease, and it quickly became clear that they were so much more than just a venue, they were our guides, our support system, and the people who turned our dream into reality. Honestly, without them, our day would not have been the same; they were absolutely priceless and worth every single penny. Their professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail are unmatched. From planning to execution, they thought of everything (big and small) and made sure we never had to worry about a single thing. They even let us deliver our décor the day before and decorated the space for us, executing our vision flawlessly. Throughout the entire day, there was always someone by our side coordinating, keeping everything seamless, and allowing us to truly soak in every moment. The food was outrageously good, our guests are still raving about it. To our surprise, there was even a full dessert buffet in addition to the cake, which felt like an unexpected gift. During dinner, when they ran out of scallops (my favorite), they immediately cooked more just for me, the bride. And whenever we left the table to dance, they whisked our plates away to keep them warm so we never missed out. Every thoughtful gesture made us feel so cared for. What truly sets David’s Country Inn apart is how deeply they care about every couple. We trusted them completely, and that trust was met with nothing but joy, attention, and an experience beyond our imagination. Even with a large team of vendors around us, it was the staff at David’s Country Inn who anchored the day, ensuring that everything felt effortless, magical, and unforgettable. Choosing David’s Country Inn wasn’t just about booking a venue, it was about having a team who would treat our day like their own, protect our memories, and make the celebration everything we dreamed of and more. They are extraordinary, both as professionals and as people, and I cannot recommend them enough. If you’re considering them, DO IT! They will give you the wedding day of your dreams.

When trying to decide on a wedding venue, my wife and I actually saw the Michener Museum first. We were floored by the large windows, loved the unique museum feel, and found it to be the perfect size for a small-ish wedding. Mixed with its walkability to the rest of Doylestown, it became a no-brainer. The day-of was even better. The food was excellent, the venue was beautiful, and it even worked comfortably for our wedding count of 85. The only thing that could have been improved was having more airflow for the hot day that it was. Thank you, Michener Museum (& Kelly), for the most magical evening of our lives. We’d do it all over again in a heartbeat.

Jasna Polana was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day. From their easy and quick communication, to the stunning and graceful mansion, we could not have asked for a better venue. Kelsey was creative in how she maneuvered the furniture to create the perfect flow for our cocktail hour, and even pulled us aside during cocktail hour to make sure we took a moment to enjoy a plate of delicious food - a thoughtful (and incredibly helpful) gesture that we really appreciated. In particular, Kelsey was a joy to work with, helping to talk down this anxious bride and providing creative solutions throughout the planning process. We are so grateful to the entire Jasna Polana team for making our special day truly unforgettable.

We had been going to Folino for years prior to booking them for our wedding so we were already fans, but they did a wonderful job in giving us the exact wedding experience we wanted. The space is beautiful, the staff is exceptional, and we felt the cost was reasonable (as reasonable as a wedding can be, at least). Any complaints or concerns we had were 100% remedied and they truly pulled off a flawless execution when the big day came. Lauren and the planning team were responsive and accommodating. She helped guide us through the many small decisions that need to be made that we didn’t even know existed. When the day came, we had Kelly take care of us as our Maitre D’ and she ensured we were well fed and had plenty of access to drinks. Overall, we can’t say enough positive things about our experience here.
