Everything was absolutely incredible the entire night. We had an amazing time, the guests loved it, the flowers were gorgeous, there was a ton of praise for the food (especially the passed hors d’oeuvres), the drinks, the location (apparently some deer attended the ceremony!), and the staff working throughout the night. We’re absolutely going to recommend Stroudsmoor to anyone we know who gets engaged!
Thank you so much to you and the entire team there for all the work you did, it was amazing, and we will definitely be giving five star reviews on all available platforms.
Thank you!

Celebrating their 5th dating and 1st wedding anniversary – wedding date 5/27/24 Lawnhaven
Please forgive me for being so late in my reply following Samurna and Andrew’s wedding celebration – we were heads down in moving and Yash is preparing for his Board Exam next week. It’s study mode over here in Texas!
Hope you and Andy are doing well. I’ve been watching a show called Sullivan’s Crossing on Netflix, about a campground and inn that visitors frequent every summer, and I think Stroudsmoor is going to be our haven for the years to come.
Samurna and Andrew have been well and we still reminisce how beautiful their wedding was. Corinne was a joy to work with on the wedding day, and all in I believe you helped create their dream wedding.
Also, I wanted to share this with you, for our 5th dating anniversary, I printed the photos from our anniversary and thought you’d like to see it – https://photos.app.goo.gl/f5qs7yNRCDBNPivAA
Thank you for keeping Stroudsmoor alive and thriving. It’s an incredible business with a thriving soul.
Lots of love,

First and foremost, we want to sincerely thank you from the deepest recesses of our souls for sincerely giving us our dream wedding! Everything was so perfect! Thank you for dealing with our midnight email freakouts, and multiple changes throughout the process. We couldn’t have asked for a better coordinator. Seriously, everything just fell into place so exquisitely. Everything looked beautiful; the food was amazing.
From the plan A and plan B simultaneous set up for the ceremony, to the weather holding up to give us that beautiful view; everything was just amazing! (I keep saying that I know) Thank you so much for those surprises. The ice cream truck and the additional linens added such a unique aspect to our wedding. Corrine and Belkis were so on point with everything. With all that was going on, we didn’t even get a chance to even give them a gift. Can you please let me know how we can facilitate that? Everything flowed seamlessly with those two.
It really was the best day of our lives. We hope to keep in touch, and will definitely be back to celebrate our anniversary at Stroudsmoor. It holds such a special place in our hearts. Even the day after when no one was ready to leave just yet, the staff was so accommodating and helpful. I get goosebumps just thinking about the whole weekend. Do keep in touch Linda!
Sincerely,
Andrew and Samurna Sukhu

If I told you how many times I have started this note in my head, you would giggle. It is difficult to find the words to express how one could make one of your biggest dreams come true in a matter of hours. I believe that every little girl dreams of a magical wedding day, one straight out of the movies. For Francesca, my daughter, you delivered that and more! It was a day full of love and celebration in the most beautiful setting. When we started to plan this day, there was no question that we wanted to spend it at Stroudsmoor. Mary & Jim Shiffert, Michael’s parents, were impressed by the tasting, but still had no idea what May 3rd, 2025, would look like. I on the other hand, knew exactly what the finished product would look like – or so I thought…One gift after another, one exciting surprise followed by what? An ice cream truck?? Simply amazing! Danny & I were in awe of what you did for all of us. When people ask how the day went, my response – simply magical!
From the bottom of my heart, I thank you.
– Michelle Goffredo Catino (Mother of the Bride)
Where do I even begin. Michael and I will never be able to say thank you enough for all that you did to ensure that our day was absolutely perfect. All of the surprises around each corner were breathtaking and I still feel as though I was dreaming!!!!!! They made the day even more spectacular and we are truly, truly grateful ❤️ We could feel all of the love and support from your team for us, our families, and guests.
Thank you thank you. I will never be able to repay you.

Thank you so much for following up with us!
We still feel like we are on cloud nine after our wedding. What started out as a stressful morning because of the rain, turned into the most magical day for us. Thank you so much for all of the effort and hard work you put into making it possible for us, especially with the last-minute change of plans for the ceremony. We couldn’t have done it without you. We appreciate you so much.
We will be in Costa Rica till the end of the month and once we get back, I will be putting out those good reviews everywhere. We had such a great experience with you and the whole Stroudsmoor team and we couldn’t be any happier.
Thank you so much.
With much gratitude,

Thanks so much for the check in, sorry for not responding yesterday, we were wrapped up in getting ourselves together and back on our way home, then unpacking once we arrived, etc etc.
Yes, the evening was fantastic from start to finish! I received compliments from our guests on the conduct of the staff, the food, and the venue throughout the event.
You, Maddie, and Jenny did an absolutely phenomenal job with everything. There were more than a handful of unexpected issues that popped up during the course of the day that each of you took in stride, solving abley and with grace. From wildly unexpected weather, site changes, signs we forgot and making sure the groomsmen and myself had their Boutonnières properly attached moments before the wedding, you and the entire staff at the event handled everything with aplomb. I especially appreciate Jenny and Maddie making sure our wedding party always
had plenty of the hors d’oeuvres while we were sequestered away or taking photos.
Every request we made was accommodated and the staff was so incredibly friendly and attentive. I hope our oversights didn’t inconvenience you all too much, and if they did, you certainly didn’t show it, which helped to set our minds at ease. I am truly impressed by you and your staff’s professionalism and capabilities. I know you had to take over our event from our first coordinator, so I’m sincerely thankful for your hard work in organizing everything with far less time than you’d normally have.
Maranda and I are so happy we chose the Stroudmoor to host our wedding. You made our event something truly spectacular. We will most definitely be returning for our first anniversary, and we are going to make sure to leave a glowing and detailed review for the Stroudsmoor and it’s staff. Thank you, Maddie, Jenny, and the rest of the event staff for all your efforts on our behalf. We are so very grateful to all of you.
Sincerely,

Thank you isn’t even enough to express my deep gratitude to everyone’s hard work.
I am so proud to support a local venue for the wedding.
I will be sending handwritten thank you cards to you ladies soon but just know that I love you ladies and you made my night!
Of course you will see us soon. We’ve visited Stroudsmoor many times before the wedding for mother’s day buffet, easter, wedding expo 😉
It won’t be your last time seeing us local folks.

First, I would like to say – the moment my husband and I went to check out our venue we knew it was perfect for us. From the older European vibes to the beautiful outdoor ceremony spot in the woods it was all so cohesive. The staff was amazing. As the bride, they made sure I did not want for anything the entire evening. All I had to do was show up and it was decorated absolutely beautifully. Alexandria (my coordinator) was so helpful and kind and really went above and beyond in helping us plan our wedding day. The hors d’oeuvres we’re 10/10 amazing and the cake too!

My husband and I got married at Ridgecrest on Oct 25th, 2024 and there are truly no words to describe how unbelievable our day was… but I will try 🙂 The weather was perfect and that venue is stunning so there was no way that our wedding couldn’t have been amazing, but the Stroudsmoor staff were absolutely exceptional. We had the privilege of having Kaylie as our Event Planner and she was the absolute best. She was so helpful and responsive throughout the entire planning process and couldn’t have made it more stress-free. We used an outside Florist for flowers but worked with Grayson for ceiling drapery, linens and table numbers, and same thing – she was fantastic, and coordinating with her couldn’t have been easier. I was also blown away by how amazing the day-of staff were. Margie & Kerry specifically were unbelievably amazing. The kindest yet most hard-working women in the room. Both of them, as well as all of the rest of the staff that I spoke to, genuinely seemed happy to be there. They were friendly and efficient and everyone was raving about how good the food and drinks were all night. I always dreamed of an amazing wedding and it’s easy to set your exceptions too high but my wedding was truly better than I ever could have imagined. We would relive that day forever and I will be depressed for the next year. 1000/10 recommend. I can’t imagine a better venue or company to work with, and they will all always have a special place in our hearts.

“What is there to say! Five stars is simply not enough! Well for starters we just had our wedding at the Terraview on 10.19.24 and it was absolutely INCREDIBLE! There are simply not enough words to describe this venue and this entire atmosphere as well as planning process. Our coordinator was Barbara and she was fantastic. The entire year leading up to our wedding. There was nothing but amazing communication and help at every turn. They make the planning process for your event or wedding so easy and we were so grateful since we honestly had no idea where to begin. Everything was amazing on the day of and was perfect to beginning to end. There is not a thing that we would have changed about our wedding. From the decorations to the florals to the food, there was no detail left out. If you are looking for a truly unique and beautiful wedding or event space, I highly recommend this venue. The details of our day were so intimate and so carefully thought out by the entire team that we had working with us. We worked with the floral department and the bakery and the kitchen to create an amazing day. The transparency is second to none and we are forever grateful. They also have an on-site beauty studio where your hair and makeup can get done and they were also fantastic to work with! Gina and her girls are truly talented and made my entire bridal party look stunning. My day-of bridal attendant was Belkis and she is absolutely amazing. There was not one thing that we had questions on that she could not handle. She made sure that all the girls were eating. She made sure that I as the bride ate and was hydrated. She made everybody make sure that their dresses were perfect and during the getting ready portion, she was there for us 110% of the time helping with photos. Making sure that every detail on my dress was perfect. There are not enough words for her and I am profoundly grateful. After the ceremony, she insured that we had a drink in our hands and made sure that we were eating during our reception. She made sure that we were eating and brought us water on the dance floor and drinks on the dance floor and was just always at our side ready to help us. She is definitely an asset to this venue in so many ways. It is also close to the Scranton airport if you have guest coming from farther away. They have different venues on site (different sizes and styles) and it’s one event per day at each so you aren’t dealing with other parties. It is absolutely gorgeous. The ceremony sites are outdoors with gorgeous views and the reception rooms are beautiful. It is a family business and you do truly feel like family while working with them. I cannot say enough great things! It’s close to many hotels so getting blocks wasn’t an issue. You also get some rooms on site. You also get a wedding coordinator and a day of person who is well aware of your needs and wants! Our day was absolutely perfect beginning to end! They make it so easy to plan and stress free! Food was absolutely amazing and my guests have been raving since! I had a cocktail reception which I highly recommend exploring! They have their own full bakery so all desserts were also made by them! We are truly grateful for the entire team at the Stroudsmoor, who made our wedding day unforgettable and a day that our guests will talk about forever. This place is truly a hidden gem in the Poconos! Thank you so much everyone!”

Hi Stroudsmoor Team!
Joey and I want to thank you from the very bottoms of our hearts for making our day so incredible. We are still riding the high and getting so many compliments from our guests on the event.
All of your staff is top notch! Joey and I are already planning to spend our anniversary on the Stroudsmoor grounds.
I was at this venue when I was 15 years old, it was then I decided that when it was my time to get married, this place was it.
The grounds are so beautiful.
The staff is beyond dedicated
Food is to die for.
If you have a vision they execute it!
Extras: lodging, salon and florals on site. So convenient and 100% worth it.
It’s a wonderful place.

“Our daughter was married at Woodsgate @Stroudsmoor last weekend. Everything was perfect! Guests are still telling me how beautiful the location is and how delicious the food was (tip: the autumn squash soup getting special raves!) All the careful planning with Barbara allowed me to enjoy everything as a guest. There were no hiccups, no concerns, no worries. Highly recommend!”

Stroudsmoor Country Inn was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the very beginning, the staff was incredibly straightforward and easy to communicate with, answering all of our questions and guiding us through the planning process. On the day of, the team was extremely professional and friendly, ensuring that our special day went off without a hitch. Our wedding planner, Alex DiGrazia, was particularly amazing – she was there for us every step of the way, addressing any concerns and making sure everything ran smoothly. The space itself was warm and inviting, providing the ideal backdrop for our celebration. We are so grateful to the entire Stroudsmoor team for helping to make our wedding day truly unforgettable.

When I was looking for a woodsy venue to get married at on the east coast, I stumbled upon Woodsgate at Stroudsmoor and it immediately stood out to me! We could get married surrounded by trees, with the ease of an all-inclusive reception a short walk away. When we visited and saw the woodland chapel, even in the middle of winter, my breath was taken away and I wanted to cry because of how perfect and beautiful it is. It’s very secluded and has a lit-up walk to the ceremony site up an adorable path, and the reception hall has a cozy homey feel, while being straight out of a fantasy novel. We didn’t need much floral decor because of how beautiful everything is already, but the floral we did get was the perfect finishing touch, and I’m still obsessing over my bouquet.
Aside from the gorgeous fairytale setting, the service was phenomenal, and both our planner, Malia, and the staff were there to see to all our needs and make the day as stress-free and easygoing as possible. Malia was always quick to answer any questions and was very willing to bring our unconventional ideas like Rock Band karaoke at the reception to life. Sometimes with all-inclusive venues you’re limited with customizing the wedding but that was not at all the case with Stroudsmoor. Everyone was so kind, professional, and our guests raved about the incredible food and service. I couldn’t imagine getting married at a more perfect place, and highly recommend this to anyone looking to have their own whimsical woodland wedding!!

Our wedding at the Stroudsmoor Country Inn (Ridgecrest) was amazing. Kaylie was our planner and she was helpful throughout the entire process. She was timely in answering many emails and if she could not help, she connected us with the right people on property. They could not have made the process easier for us. On the day of the wedding, the other staff was super attentive to the wedding party and the guests. We even had servers bringing food and drinks to our photos after the ceremony. We could not have asked for a better day and our guests gave rave reviews of the property and staff.

We chose the Stroudsmoor Country Inn’s Lawnhaven venue for our September 1, 2024, wedding. It is a beautiful setting and easy to access for any guests with mobility problems.
Our wedding planner, Malia Kasperkevic, was professional, informative and so helpful to us when we were choosing an officiant, photographer, and DJ.
We stayed at the Inn the night before the wedding and the night of it. On our wedding eve, we were treated to a surprise, private champagne dinner, thanks to Malia’s request. We then retired to our cozy room at the main Inn.
We selected Journeys of the Heart’s Susanne Wilson for our officiant, initially meeting with her to discuss our preferences, then communicating by email to help her create the ceremony that we wished from readings that she provided. Our guests remarked on how inclusive and thoughtful she was.
For our photographer and DJ, we hired Frankie Carll Productions. We first met with Mr. Carll to review our music choices, and he selected Corey for our photographer and Ricky for our DJ. Both were professional, personable and fun. Corey made us feel at ease through our photo shoots. Ricky got everyone up and dancing, and also played all of our requests.
The hors d’oeuvres were spectacular, and the dinners and cake were delicious and beautifully presented. The servers and bartenders were attentive and considerate of any special needs or requests made by our guests.
Our floral arrangements were lovely, and the centerpiece flowers were able to be taken home by our guests. The colors of my bouquet and the groom’s boutonniere were matched by the ones in our centerpieces.
I used the Stroudsmoor’s salon for my hair and makeup. Gina did a terrific job incorporating my baby’s breath headpiece into my styled hair and made me up in an understated fashion as suited me very well.

Kaylie was my wedding planner & she was so responsive and kind. She was so patient & was willing to answer all my questions. Ryan & Margie made sure the day of ran so smooth. They always made sure I had a drink in hand and my friends and family were all taken care of. So attentive, speedy & put a special touch on everything. Maddy & Anne were great too!

Everything about the Stroudsmoor created the perfect wedding for us. Once we stepped foot at the Stroudsmoor we knew our wedding would be there. The views are breathtaking and the feeling of being in nature is what we wanted for our big day. Then we met our wedding coordinator Malia who is extraordinary. She made the whole process of planning a wedding seamless and low stress for a year. Whatever questions we had or tasks we needed help with she was there the whole time for us. The day of the wedding Malia and Gaby were there for us and made everything stress free and enjoyable. Gaby helped us rehearse our dance the day before so we also felt less nervous!! They both communicated with the vendors and made the night perfect. The staff at the wedding were also very kind and professional specifically Corrine and Belkis! There is no question if you want the perfect wedding day the Stroudsmoor is your place!

I truly truly cannot even explain how perfect and amazing my wedding was. There aren’t enough words to express my gratitude for you and your entire team!!! The end of the night got a little hazy for me so please please tell Belkis she was the absolute best!! She was by my side all the time and got Mike and I everything we needed at lightning speed. My guests cannot stop talking about the venue and the views and how truly stunning your place is. I will be forever grateful for this amazing day and all the hard work you and the team did to make that happen. Thank you thank thank you times a million. I am filled with so much love and joy!!!

I can’t thank you and your staff enough for guiding us in the planning of Emily and Mike’s wedding for the past year and a half. Everyone has been helpful, kind and professional along the way, Colleen with lodging, Grayson with flowers, Gina with hair/make up. They all were very nice and answered all our request/concerns in a timely manner.
The wedding day was absolutely beautiful. Everything was perfect. The view was spectacular, the food was delicious, service impeccable and Belkis, Kerry & Corrine were just outstanding. We didn’t need to be concerned with anything, and we enjoyed ourselves the entire night. Our guests raved about the wedding. Thanks for the gold chargers! Tables looked beautiful.

Hi Linda!
Thank you so much for all your help with wedding planning and making sure the day-of went smoothly. Christian and I had the most amazing wedding and best reception we could have hoped for! We couldn’t have dreamed of a better wedding. We heard from so many people that the venue was amazing and it was the best wedding they’d been to.
Thank you for everything ❤️

From Sarah & Tom McGuire, Parents of the Bride:
Linda,
Thank you so much for your meticulous coordination of Kelly & Christian’s wedding! Everything was just lovely.
Your team, from the Inn and office staff, bartenders, servers, grounds crew, and more, were consummate professionals. The “I Do Crew”, Grayson, Colleen, and everyone else we interacted with, were simply outstanding. Stephanie, Bill and Frankie Carll’s crew, excellent. All the guests arrived in a timely manner so Limos for Less delivered as promised.
The food~ appetizers, dinner and cake were absolutely delicious. (This may sound funny but my vegetarian sister-in-law told me the carrots were the best she’s ever tasted!) And last but not least: the ice cream truck! It was a HUGE hit! We are so glad you offered this option; it was unique and fun!
Many guests expressed how beautiful everything was with several guests stating it was the nicest wedding they ever attended.
Your experience and guidance made for the most beautiful wedding and for that, we sincerely thank you.

We could not have done this without you and your amazing team and everyone at the Stroudsmoor. Our wedding day has been talked about since the day of! People had such a great time and gave us so many compliments about everything. You guys really went above and beyond to make our special day so much more special. We will definitely be recommending the Stroudsmoor and hopefully we will be able to plan something in the future! It was such an absolute pleasure working with you. You were an absolute delight.

If you want a typical, stressful wedding, then book at any other venue. If you want the PERFECT wedding, book Stroudsmoor. My wife and I started our planning process with Stroudsmoor about 2 years before our wedding date. The property is absolutely beautiful – multiple venues on one property that all feel secluded and special. We had our 1st tour and fell in love with Lawnhaven. From there, our wedding planners literally handled everything. They coordinated visits with vendors to meet us on-site, kept a detailed set of deadlines we needed to have items completed, etc. We even had a sampling event with food tastings, vendor meetings, and examples of floral & decor. All of this took all the major stress off the wedding, which was a welcome relief.
The day of the wedding, Stroudsmoor was even better than we expected. They ensured we stayed on schedule and kept it all running smoothly. We even had a dedicated person, Belkis, to specifically attend to our needs. She gave us tums, sunscreen, and food/beverage as needed. We truly had the wedding of our dreams.
They are the best and they work with the best vendors. They are THE place to have your wedding. You will not regret it. It is 100% worth the money.
Special shoutout to Linda – the best wedding planner we could’ve asked for!

Great Venue for a Wedding!
A wonderful, beautiful experience, we had the great fortune of attending a wedding the first week in June 2024 at The Stroudsmoor Inn in Stroudsburg, PA. A gorgeous setting with multiple options for wedding services and celebrations after, the weather was perfect, the staff VERY friendly and accommodating, highly engaged and sincerely thrilled that we were there! From rehearsal dinner to the wedding night dinner, the food was excellent with options for everyone. In addition to wedding cake, there was even an ice cream sundae bar with huge cookies. Accommodations were onsite, so no driving and rooms spacious. It was a glorious place…easy to make lifetime memories!

Linda,
Thank you and the Stroudsmoor team for making our wedding day perfect. Everything at the venue itself was set up as we would have wanted including special touches like making sure the seating chart names didn’t blow away and decorating the cake station in a truly meeple-tastic fashion. The staff was truly top notch. We appreciated that horderves were circulated to the wedding party as photos were being taken. Paul and I felt especially pampered by the staff who ensured we had drinks, a poo poo platter, cake, and ultimately boxed-up-dinners we didn’t have time to eat during the wedding. One of our guests split her dress during the reception, and someone from Stroudsmoor sewed her up while she ate! Our guests were certainly impressed.
I’d also like to offer a special shoutout to Grayson who really listened to my flower vision and managed to achieve the perfect mixture of yellow, pink, and blue colors with inclusion of some wild flowers to really make the hiking-essence pop. I thought they were really unique, and simply tremendous.
And finally, you probably already know this, but the Stroudsmoor property is absolutely gorgeous, and I’m excited that we’ll be getting some spectacular photos that look like they were taken in a forest wonderland. See attached for two photo previews we’ve received from our photographer.
All the best,

Choosing Stroudsmoor was the #1 best decision I could have made when it came to my wedding. It is the PERFECT place to get married. They have everything right there for you no matter which venue on their property you choose.
We got married at The Pavillion because we wanted an outdoor ceremony with a “backyard/park” feel. From the moment I met my event planner, Danica, the planning went smoothly and every detail was covered. Grayson handled the flowers and decor beautifully. My bouquet came out better than I ever could have expected and the ceremony and reception decor was everything I was looking for. I came to them with a cake stand I had seen that I was going to rent myself but instead THEY HAD ONE MADE!! That’s just one example of many of how they go above and beyond to make your day a dream come true.
From the ceremony to the reception things were seamless from a venue standpoint. Danica and Kaylie planned my day with me and made sure my vision came to life. Checked in often and even made sure our first look went smoothly while juggling another wedding. Maddy, Kim, Jenny, and Ally took it from immediately after the ceremony to the end of the night, never leaving me and my guests without whatever it was we needed. Jenny ensured I had a drink in my hand before I even thought to head to the bar for another, starting with hitting the end of the aisle after the “I do”.
My guests raved about the service and attentiveness of everyone and I couldn’t have asked for a better place to start my next chapter as wife! Stroudsmoor will take your vision and make it a reality!!

We will absolutely be back for a weekend in the future. I think many of our guests that stayed on the property will be back as well. We are still all talking about Ms. Belkis. I’m not sure I spelt her name right. She is nothing short of amazing. Every bride’s dream on her wedding day. From remembering drink orders, bustling dresses, sewing my sister’s dress when it ripped, to making sure everyone in our wedding party was drinking water. She’s like the wedding day wizard. Grayson is an amazing florist. The ceremony florals looked like a fairy tale. The decor in the reception went way beyond our expectations. The room looked stunning. Your staff was unbelievable. There wasn’t an empty water glass or dirty dish anywhere all night. Thank you so much for everything you did for us. We really appreciate it. It was beyond our wildest dreams.
Sincerely,
The Grellos

I don’t even know where to begin. The wedding was everything we wanted and more. It was a very tough year for me when it came to planning this, and I cannot thank you enough for helping me every step of the way. I truly was never fond of the idea of a wedding, which is why I was late planning everything haha, but you and Corrine, and everyone else truly made the day so beyond special. I could never do your job. You guys handled everything with such grace and I never once felt stressed from the second the wedding started to the end. Corrine literally saved me from having an absolute meltdown during the photos and I appreciate it so much.
The venue was absolutely beautiful. The food was amazing. The drinks were delicious. We haven’t stopped hearing compliments and we owe that to you guys. We never looked at any other venue besides Stroudsmoor. And the second we saw Ridgecrest we just knew we had to have it for our wedding.
I hope one day down the line someone we know gets married there, because we would love to see it again as guests.
Again, thank you so so much for everything you did for us this year. We really could not have done it without you!

From the Bride:
Hi!!
I just wanted to take the time to thank you. There are no words that I can find to truly express how grateful Vinny and I are for the wedding we recently had at this venue. From the moment we toured it, we knew it was the space we wanted to exchange our vows to one another at. Everything about this weekend has far exceeded our expectations. I feel like we were able to take it all in and see the details of the day – nothing short of breath taking. Everything was absolutely beautiful and we honestly could not have asked for anything more.
I cannot get over how magnificent our space was – not only visually, but also how amazing the food and staff service was. Belkis is an absolute angel on earth – she calmed me down when I was nervous & steadied me when I inevitably felt frustrated with family not listening to important instructions 😂 anything I needed, she was on top of, & then some. Literally my fairy god mother for the day.
I cannot tell you how many compliments were received – all of our guests absolutely raved about every single thing. Linda, we appreciate you and all of the back and forth. You truly made our day what it was – so undeniably special and more than we could have ever hoped for.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, to you and your amazing staff. Our wedding was a dream & we are still riding that high as we go into our honeymoon! We were able to soak in the love and the joy of each other, as well as our loved ones. The day was a memory we will always look back on and cherish.
Just wanted you to know how grateful we are. We hope you have a lovely holiday season!
Kelsey Singer
From Yolanda & Jack Singer, Parents of the Bride:
Good morning, Linda
We know that Kelsey reached out to you to express her gratitude for the most beautiful wedding provided by your venue. However, we also feel the need to express our sincerest gratitude, as parents, for the most beautiful wedding you and your staff provided for Kelsey and Vinny. We did not have Colleen’s or Grayson’s email so we are hoping you can pass our words of gratitude on to them as well. There are many details that go into a wedding and one never knows what to expect when the day actually comes together. However, you and your staff went far above our expectations!!!!! Everything that day was so perfect! You have an amazing staff which went above and beyond to see that every detail was taken care of for our guests. They are incredibly professional and pleasant and we want you to know it didn’t get unnoticed by anyone! Everyone keeps talking about them. We also know that you, Colleen, and Grayson worked so very hard to create the most beautiful affair. We can’t tell you how much we appreciate that. There are no words to express our full gratitude! Lastly, but certainly not least, Belkis!!!! She is the sweetest, hardworking person one could ever hope to meet. We can’t say enough good things about her. She is so detail oriented and the most amazing person! Again, we know these are just words, but we can’t say enough about the time and energy you all took to give our children one of the happiest days of their lives! We are forever grateful! Take care and enjoy your families and your holidays!
Sincerely,
Yolanda (Jeannie) and Jack Singer

Good Morning Danica,
Thank you for all of your efforts in helping to make my daughter’s bridal shower such a beautiful event. Even the fresh ‘dusting’ of snow made the picture perfect venue even more perfect! Your coordination of every detail made the process of hosting stress free. The day-of team including Corinne, Geri, Jo Jo Junior and everybody else was so attentive and we could not have been more pleased with the day. Kudos to all on a job so well done.

Mother of the Bride, Jane Carr:
Stroudsmoor Country Inn was perfect in every way for my daughter’s wedding. The natural beauty in the woods surrounding the ceremony site at Woodsgate was breathtaking. The reception hall was equally wonderful with its rustic surroundings and elegant lighting. It was luxurious and very comfortable. Many guests remarked how they enjoyed feasting on the wide variety of hors d’oeuvres. The buffet was likewise delicious. Our wedding planner, Malia, made everything about the day flow smoothly and as planned down to every detail. Communication was easy with all the staff. The florist, Grayson, was excellent and it was so calming to have Malia and Jess with us throughout the wedding day. Everyone we dealt with was very professional. I am the mother of the bride and having my daughter’s wedding at Stroudsmoor Country Inn was an excellent decision by my husband and myself. I couldn’t have asked for her day to be any more perfect than it was.

From Mother of the Bride, Christine Reed:
Good Morning, Linda!
I have to tell you that you and your staff are amazing! My daughter could not have picked a better location to have her wedding. We had the best time, and everything went smoothly, thanks to you and your staff. We had many many, many complements on her wedding and your staff and also the rooms.
I hope someone else that we know has a wedding there so I can come back…
There are not enough words for me to tell you how thankful and happy Brittany, Skyler and I were with everything!!!
Thank you again!

Hi Linda,
THANK YOU for everything! Your coordination, organization, and patience through this entire process made this such an easy, memorable, and special experience for me. Meeting you in person was a highlight of my wedding weekend, and it was such a relief knowing I was in good hands. My sister, who also works with me professionally, noted that you were the perfect ying to my yang and I couldn’t agree more. I appreciate you bringing my dream wedding to fruition – including my good side & the al dente pasta… just to name a few. 😉
A huge shout out to Belkis! I couldn’t stop talking about what a life saver she was day of. I’ve never met anybody who could be in so many places at once. She was the backbone of the entire day, and I couldn’t have done it without her. I was specifically impressed with her acute awareness of my needs. I hadn’t even noticed my bustle had broken on the dance floor, before she was ten steps ahead of me on the ground safety pinning it back in place. Please send my praises & thanks.
I will certainly be recommending your Inn to my friends and family, and look forward to seeing you again.
All my best,
Rosie Berardi 😉

Stroudsmoor was a great choice for our wedding venue! The site is beautiful (we chose Woodsgate) with great food, decor, floral, etc. but the real difference maker was the personalized attention we received. Our coordinator Danica was there for everything we needed through the planning process and made everything super easy. Highly recommended!
Jane Sudano & Dan Saint-Pol
October 14, 2023
Hey Danica!
We received SO many compliments on everything for the wedding. You and the team went above and beyond and Dan and I couldn’t be more grateful. We genuinely LOVED our plan B option more than what plan A would’ve been, and it was all just an amazing dream that came to life ❤️

From the Bride & Groom:
We can’t thank Stroudsmoor enough for making our wedding such a beautiful and smooth process. The venue itself is gorgeous and photos don’t do it justice. The food is great and the drinks are well made. Absolutely no drama or hiccups on our actual wedding day, and our guests can’t stop talking about attending the “best party ever.” We are so grateful we found this hidden gem and would choose it again every time.
From the Parents of the Groom:
My son was married on 11/3/23 at Stroudsmoor Country Inn at Lawnhaven. We couldn’t have asked for a better day! It was perfect from start to finish. We worked with Danica and she was fantastic from our first planning meeting to the very end of the wedding night. The food, flowers, venue and staff were all outstanding in every way possible. I have not one thing negative to say. The day was perfect.

Linda,
Words cannot express our gratitude for you. You have made planning a wedding from across the country look easy! Thank you for working with us, listening to us, and making this day happen just how we pictured. We had looked at LGBTQ friendly venues from the start of our planning process and immediately felt welcomed and comfortable with the Stroudsmoor just from the representation of all couples in photos on the website. A blessing, truly, to have been made to feel as if we are another couple celebrating our love, and that is all possible because of you. Thank you for your speedy emails, your honesty, your expertise, and most importantly your wisdom. You are fantastic at what you do and we are very thankful. Wishing you all the best. We will certainly be back to visit in the future.
Warmly,
Amanda & Grabriella

You two are truly incredible what you do and all future couples are so fortunate in getting to plan their wedding days with the two of you!
We were truly blown away by the decor, floral, etc. the outside ceremony was breathtaking when we looked at it! And the cocktail and reception rooms were so beautiful. You both went above and beyond in making our vision come to life! It was even more stunning then we thought it would be!!!! Every detail was beautiful. You both put so much work into what you do.

My husband and I had our reception here last Friday and it was all we could have ever dreamed of. Everyone was fantastic throughout the planning process and during the event. Our planner Malia was so sweet and did so much for us leading up to the wedding. The Food was amazing and service was amazing. Frankie Carll was our photographer and dj and they did an amazing job!

Although we are sad the planning and party is now over, we are grateful for the special memories that we created to last us a lifetime.

Best Day Ever!!! Thank you Danica!
Our day was perfect! Our coordinator, Danica Johnson, worked with us from day 1, picking out a venue all the way to the ceremony, and she did it with candor, patience, and flexibility. She was a joy to work with, and her colleagues were no different.
Grayson Davis, who worked with us to pick out our florals, also knocked it out of the park. She helped us pick out the exact designs and flowers we’d want. On the day of the wedding, the flowers were breathtaking. Our guests were eager to accept our centerpieces as gifts.
We would also love to thank Emma, Brooklyn, Carolynn, Liam, Raquel, Cameron, and all the folks working on-site during our wedding. You were invaluable to our amazing night, and we will remember this night for the rest of our lives. Thank you!!!

Hello again!
Thank you SO much for everything Malia! It’s been a journey, but we made it and it turned out more amazing than we could’ve hoped for. We both loved every second and can’t believe you made our vision come to life. Everyone was so impressed and truly fell in love with Stroudsmoor/Terraview as much as we did…
As we were leaving town, we both said we will have to come back up to explore more. It’s just so beautiful! We will definitely come back to visit 🙂
Wishing you all the best, and please pass our thank you to Linda and the entire team at Stroudsmoor Country Inn!

We were married at the Woodsgate venue in July of 2023. We cannot sing the praises of Stroudsmoor and its phenomenal staff enough for the service provided on our wedding day. Our guests, even months after, still tell us it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to. One of the most frequent compliments was on the food and hors d’oeuvres during cocktail hour. Stroudsmoor does not skimp on variety! The quality was second to none on flavor and service!
The planning process Stroudsmoor offers its clients is intuitive and accommodating. Trust their process and your day will look exactly like it does in your mind. From floral and decor, to bakery, to even allowing you to coordinate and time your ceremony entrance, they are incredibly detail oriented.
Communicate often with your coordinators. They will take your pictures, DIY decorations, and placement requests seriously and thoughtfully. They allow frequent meeting times and in-person discussions so there are no questions at all about how you want your day to look and feel. Our event coordinator Danica, and floral and decor specialist Grayson tag-teamed to assuage any concerns we ever had and took so much stress and burden off our planning we cannot thank them enough!
Numerous little details made us feel so special. They took our drink orders prior to the ceremony and had them waiting for us once it was done. In the bridal suite, they had a platter of all of the hor d’oeuvres waiting for us in case we couldn’t enjoy them in the moment. One staff member in particular, Belkis, went above and beyond on the wedding day. She was our shadow (particularly for the bride) who made sure everything we needed was right there. She even carried our bride’s train and held the umbrella for us in the rain when our photographers took us for pictures!

Good morning Linda,

What can we say, except WOW! Our son and daughter-in-law were married Sept 30 at the Ridgecrest venue. The ceremony was outside at the Crestview chapel (what a view) We also hosted a rehearsal dinner at Auradell on the property. As a family we could not have been more pleased with the professionalism of our wedding planner, Danica. Danica went above and beyond to accommodate and facilitate additional requests. Throughout the long planning process, (about 15 months) she was always prompt with her responses to questions and concerns. The day of the wedding was seamless, due to the hard work of our wedding planner, who coordinated many last minute details. All of our guests commented on the beauty of the property, the quality of the food (which was outstanding), and the attentiveness and friendliness of the staff. Every staff member we came in contact with was just so service oriented. We felt our guests were truly taken care of. From our first time viewing the property, you can tell that the Pirone family takes great pride in a preserving this special venue for families to enjoy on their special days. I was especially impressed with how well the entire property is maintained, well cared for and clean throughout. While the day went all too fast, we have many special memories of the day and we will always feel comfortable recommending the Stroudsmoor Country Inn as the perfect spot to celebrate a special day. As a final note regarding food, our rehearsal dinner was a buffet. Each item on the buffet was prepared well and delicious. The wedding reception was a sit down dinner. The portions are generous from appetizers to entrees. The Stroudsmoor bakery deserves a special shout out, the desserts from cheesecake and pastries to the wedding cake and signature take home cookies and biscotti were amazing!!! Excellent! Excellent! Thanks so much to the entire staff at the Stroudsmoor for creating such a special event for us!

The rain is never fun, but you all handled it perfectly which gave us ease to enjoy every second of it. The whole experience alongside the entire staff is one to sing praises about…
Stroudsmoor is beyond excellent and you all provided a one-of-a-kind dream experience. Our wedding guests continue to gush over how amazing the wedding was…
We are forever grateful for you and your team. Let Jeanne know she was a ROCKSTAR!

Beautiful venue with AMAZING staff and great food.
We were lucky enough to celebrate our daughter’s wedding here on September 9th, 2023. This venue is absolutely beautiful. It is nestled in a wooded area with all the best nature has to offer. The views are spectacular! There are several different venues within the property. The one we chose was Ridgecrest. Linda, who supported us through the process, made sure every detail was attended to. On the day of the wedding, we arrived at the venue and we were greeted by a staff that was so outstanding it is hard to put into words. First, I’d like to mention Belkis. Belkis was not only sweet and kind but took us under her wing and made sure everything was perfect for us. She wore a belt around her waist with everything you could possibly need. She had tissues, needle, thread, essential oils and so much more. She took such good care of us. I’ll never forget her kindness. Then there was Kerry who made sure we always had drinks, food, and anything else we needed. She checked on us constantly and we had so much fun together. Those women and the rest of the staff took care of the wedding party and the rest of the guests like we were royalty. Grayson who is the on staff floral manager, did such an amazing job with the flowers. I could go on, but I would like to conclude by saying I HIGHLY recommend Stroudsmoor for a wedding. The venue and staff are a cut above. Our wedding was pure magic and one of the best days of my life.

Perfect Wedding Venue. . .
My husband and I were married at the Stroudsmoor (Woodsgate) on 9/15/23. Woodsgate venue is absolutely gorgeous, as is the entire establishment. Our event coordinator, Linda, was incredibly helpful and ensured that everything leading up to and on our wedding day was taken care of. She was so helpful in regards to floral and decor and ensured that everything was exactly in the right place on the day of. The food, cake, and our s’mores station were amazing also. My bridesmaids and I had appointments at their salon for hair & everyone’s turned out perfect. The lodging is also beautiful – my husband and I stayed in the Ledgemere Loft and we didn’t want to leave! Our lodging coordinator, Colleen, was so helpful when it came to booking rooms for us and our guests. Our couple’s coordinator Geri was amazing on the day of as well as our day of coordinator Emma. My husband and I didn’t feel stressed at all on our wedding day and were able to have fun and enjoy ourselves due to the staff at Stroudsmoor. They made everything so seamless and truly helped to make our wedding day the best day of our lives. My husband and I are forever grateful and we recommend Stroudsmoor to anyone getting married.

Amazing venue with an even more amazing staff!
Everyone at Stroudsmoor was an absolute pleasure to work with. Our coordinator, Danica was fantastic throughout the entire planning process. She answered every single question me, my husband, and our families asked along the way. The actual wedding night went so smoothly and was totally stress free. Not to mention the amazing food! So many of our guests came up to us to say it was some of the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding.
Our special day was truly a dream come true and we can’t thank Stroudsmoor enough for all they did to make it happen.

“Stroudsmoor, full of beautiful locations and extremely accommodating staff
We got married at Woodsgate at Stroudsmoor on September 2nd, 2023. We first fell in love with the natural setting and cozy reception area at the Woodsgate location while touring all of the available locations offered by Stroudsmoor (all of them wonderful in their own right).
Booking at the Stroudsmoor you get assigned an amazing wedding planner and we had the pleasure of working with both Cathleen and Malia. Malia began helping us half way through our planning process, but hit the ground running, as she knew exactly what we needed and by when. She made the wedding of our dreams happen. Having her not only as a planner, but as a same-day coordinator made a usually stressful event extremely smooth, and she was on top of every detail, from what music should be playing, and what should be happening at each time stamp of the night. She even helped decorate the venue with decorations and favors we had brought in ourselves, using her own vision, and everything looked even better than what we could have imagined.
We also had an amazing on-site floral department staff (a very talented, Grayson) who put together a bouquet so beautiful you would be surprised we only spoke to her for about 30 minutes total regarding our preferred flowers/color palette.
The night wouldn’t have been complete without the amazing wait staff (shoutout to Cameron and Ann) that were making sure we (bride and groom) were being appropriately fed and had our cups full at every point of the night. We couldn’t have asked for a more amazing experience, and we hope one day we can attend another wedding or event here as a guest so we can truly experience this all over again.“

From the beginning of the planning stages, our coordinator and the owner, ensured we were satisfied with the tastings and the planning process, keeping us on track with everything that needed to be done. They worked with us to accommodate our Monday schedule so we could celebrate on our 8 year anniversary, and helped build a package that worked for us. But once we got to the rehearsal and day of, I was truly blown away by the incredible staff. Every single guest told us that the service was unparalleled, the appetizers during cocktail hour were plentiful and delicious, and it was the best wedding they have ever attended. If anything went wrong, I really didn’t know about it because it was fixed before I could even notice. I am still in awe of the day. We were able to enjoy every moment because Stroudsmoor and the staff took care of everything. I didn’t have to lift a finger or think about anything more than celebrating the man who is now my husband!
And it doesn’t hurt that the views from Terraview are absolutely stunning! So many incredible photos! Thank you so much for making our day a true fairytale!

“My husband Leo and I were married at the Ridgecrest location of the Stroudsmoor Country Inn on June 10, 2023. The weather was beautiful, the views were picturesque, but nothing could’ve beat the quality of service (and food!) we and our guests received. Planning our wedding was a year-long process. We became engaged in February 2022 and wasted no time looking for a venue. I saw pictures of Ridgecrest on Instagram, after my friend’s cousin had her wedding there in July 2021. I thought the place was so stunning, I just had to schedule a visit. The property is well-kept and beautiful. There’s lots to do in town as well. My husband and I are already thinking about booking a stay there for a future anniversary.
We also utilized the Stroudsmoor’s florist team for our flowers and décor. The staff works on site (which is really convenient) and did such a beautiful job. All our visions and requests were successfully met. We couldn’t be happier!
As for the food, it was delicious — or so everyone told me that day! I could barely eat a bite, I was so nervous. But the amount of compliments I received about the food alone was incredibly gratifying.
Last but not least, I have to express my sincere gratitude for Belkis, who served as our couple’s attendant on the wedding day. Cathleen told me in advance that she was wonderful, but I didn’t know how wonderful she truly was until I worked with her.
I love the Stroudsmoor and its wonderful staff with all my heart and soul. Thank you for everything!”

“I am having a hard time finding the words to sum up how AMAZING my wedding weekend was. You and everyone else truly made my wedding weekend a dream come true. The amount of people that have reached out to me telling me how fantastic the service was is incredible! Everyone is telling me it was the best ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception they’ve ever been to. THANK YOU for the surprise donut wall! That truly took Jon and I by surprise and it was a perfect way to end the night!”

“I cannot thank you enough for a wonderful wedding day, and for everything leading up to it.
Malia was absolutely incredible. She was kind, she helped us with all of our questions, and made the experience so much fun. I’m so sorry, I’m blanking on the names of the team that was with her, but they also were amazing. One of the ladies helped me multiple times with my bustle malfunctions, and Ann was everywhere. I’m not sure how she did it, but she was so sweet and we never had to worry about anything. Grayson and the floral team transformed the already beautiful Terraview to something I only could have dreamt of.
All of our friends and family were blown away by the professionalism of the staff, and for the atmosphere that your teams created.
Thank you so much for everything.”

“I want to thank you for your kind words and REALLY thank you for providing us such an amazing experience for our wedding. We both whole heartedly agree that nothing could have gone any better and we had truly a dream day. Your staff was absolutely amazing, and we could not have asked for better communication from you literally from day 1. We will never be able to express how much we truly appreciate all you guys did for our big day.
We would absolutely love to express our appreciation in the form of a review. I know there are a ton of different websites and forums for wedding planning so I was wondering if you had a specific spot where a review would benefit you the most? Please let us know as we are itching to share our wonderful experience with the world!
Thank you so much, and we can’t wait to see you at the Inn in the future.”

Thank you so so much again, it was everything we dreamed of and more!! You were amazing and helped so much to give us the best day ever. I will write a review now! I will definitely share the pictures when we get them (I can’t wait!!!)
Posner/Conaboy
Everything was absolutely incredible the entire night. We had an amazing time, the guests loved it, the flowers were gorgeous, there was a ton of praise for the food (especially the passed hors d’oeuvres), the drinks, the location (apparently some deer attended the ceremony!), and the staff working throughout the night. We’re absolutely going to recommend Stroudsmoor to anyone we know who gets engaged! Thank you so much to you and the entire team there for all the work you did, it was amazing, and we will definitely be giving five star reviews on all available platforms. Thank you! Thomas & Emily

Thank you for pulling out all the stops for us. Chef Gerard and his family, Belkis, and Alex are rockstars and the Stroudsmoor Standard is as impeccable as ever. I/We feel privileged to have gotten married there. Thank You! It was the best day of our lives, truly! – Samantha and Brandon Shannon

Celebrating their 5th dating and 1st wedding anniversary – wedding date 5/27/24 Lawnhaven Please forgive me for being so late in my reply following Samurna and Andrew’s wedding celebration – we were heads down in moving and Yash is preparing for his Board Exam next week. It’s study mode over here in Texas! Hope you and Andy are doing well. I’ve been watching a show called Sullivan’s Crossing on Netflix, about a campground and inn that visitors frequent every summer, and I think Stroudsmoor is going to be our haven for the years to come. Samurna and Andrew have been well and we still reminisce how beautiful their wedding was. Corinne was a joy to work with on the wedding
Andrew and Samurna Sukhu
First and foremost, we want to sincerely thank you from the deepest recesses of our souls for sincerely giving us our dream wedding! Everything was so perfect! Thank you for dealing with our midnight email freakouts, and multiple changes throughout the process. We couldn’t have asked for a better coordinator. Seriously, everything just fell into place so exquisitely. Everything looked beautiful; the food was amazing. From the plan A and plan B simultaneous set up for the ceremony, to the weather holding up to give us that beautiful view; everything was just amazing! (I keep saying that I know) Thank you so much for those surprises. The ice cream truck and the additional linens added such a unique aspect to
Michelle Goffredo Catino (Mother of the Bride)
If I told you how many times I have started this note in my head, you would giggle. It is difficult to find the words to express how one could make one of your biggest dreams come true in a matter of hours. I believe that every little girl dreams of a magical wedding day, one straight out of the movies. For Francesca, my daughter, you delivered that and more! It was a day full of love and celebration in the most beautiful setting. When we started to plan this day, there was no question that we wanted to spend it at Stroudsmoor. Mary & Jim Shiffert, Michael’s parents, were impressed by the tasting, but still had no idea what
Kowalchuk/Snock
Thank you so much for following up with us! We still feel like we are on cloud nine after our wedding. What started out as a stressful morning because of the rain, turned into the most magical day for us. Thank you so much for all of the effort and hard work you put into making it possible for us, especially with the last-minute change of plans for the ceremony. We couldn’t have done it without you. We appreciate you so much. We will be in Costa Rica till the end of the month and once we get back, I will be putting out those good reviews everywhere. We had such a great experience with you and the whole Stroudsmoor
Bolish/Emerick
Thanks so much for the check in, sorry for not responding yesterday, we were wrapped up in getting ourselves together and back on our way home, then unpacking once we arrived, etc etc. Yes, the evening was fantastic from start to finish! I received compliments from our guests on the conduct of the staff, the food, and the venue throughout the event. You, Maddie, and Jenny did an absolutely phenomenal job with everything. There were more than a handful of unexpected issues that popped up during the course of the day that each of you took in stride, solving abley and with grace. From wildly unexpected weather, site changes, signs we forgot and making sure the groomsmen and myself had
Krzyworzeka/Donegan
Thank you isn’t even enough to express my deep gratitude to everyone’s hard work. I am so proud to support a local venue for the wedding. I will be sending handwritten thank you cards to you ladies soon but just know that I love you ladies and you made my night! Of course you will see us soon. We’ve visited Stroudsmoor many times before the wedding for mother’s day buffet, easter, wedding expo 😉 It won’t be your last time seeing us local folks. Dorothy
Carli Appleby & Jarin Bartosh
First, I would like to say – the moment my husband and I went to check out our venue we knew it was perfect for us. From the older European vibes to the beautiful outdoor ceremony spot in the woods it was all so cohesive. The staff was amazing. As the bride, they made sure I did not want for anything the entire evening. All I had to do was show up and it was decorated absolutely beautifully. Alexandria (my coordinator) was so helpful and kind and really went above and beyond in helping us plan our wedding day. The hors d’oeuvres we’re 10/10 amazing and the cake too!
Meredith Cilurso & Dan Fox
My husband and I got married at Ridgecrest on Oct 25th, 2024 and there are truly no words to describe how unbelievable our day was… but I will try 🙂 The weather was perfect and that venue is stunning so there was no way that our wedding couldn’t have been amazing, but the Stroudsmoor staff were absolutely exceptional. We had the privilege of having Kaylie as our Event Planner and she was the absolute best. She was so helpful and responsive throughout the entire planning process and couldn’t have made it more stress-free. We used an outside Florist for flowers but worked with Grayson for ceiling drapery, linens and table numbers, and same thing – she was fantastic, and coordinating

“What is there to say! Five stars is simply not enough! Well for starters we just had our wedding at the Terraview on 10.19.24 and it was absolutely INCREDIBLE! There are simply not enough words to describe this venue and this entire atmosphere as well as planning process. Our coordinator was Barbara and she was fantastic. The entire year leading up to our wedding. There was nothing but amazing communication and help at every turn. They make the planning process for your event or wedding so easy and we were so grateful since we honestly had no idea where to begin. Everything was amazing on the day of and was perfect to beginning to end. There is not a thing
Lianna Zucatti & Joseph Archiere
Hi Stroudsmoor Team! Joey and I want to thank you from the very bottoms of our hearts for making our day so incredible. We are still riding the high and getting so many compliments from our guests on the event. All of your staff is top notch! Joey and I are already planning to spend our anniversary on the Stroudsmoor grounds. I was at this venue when I was 15 years old, it was then I decided that when it was my time to get married, this place was it. The grounds are so beautiful. The staff is beyond dedicated Food is to die for. If you have a vision they execute it! Extras: lodging, salon and florals on site.
Emily Brass & Jake VanScoy
“Our daughter was married at Woodsgate @Stroudsmoor last weekend. Everything was perfect! Guests are still telling me how beautiful the location is and how delicious the food was (tip: the autumn squash soup getting special raves!) All the careful planning with Barbara allowed me to enjoy everything as a guest. There were no hiccups, no concerns, no worries. Highly recommend!” From Mother of the Bride, Michele Brass
Kamila Sabat & Mitchell Morrison
Stroudsmoor Country Inn was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the very beginning, the staff was incredibly straightforward and easy to communicate with, answering all of our questions and guiding us through the planning process. On the day of, the team was extremely professional and friendly, ensuring that our special day went off without a hitch. Our wedding planner, Alex DiGrazia, was particularly amazing – she was there for us every step of the way, addressing any concerns and making sure everything ran smoothly. The space itself was warm and inviting, providing the ideal backdrop for our celebration. We are so grateful to the entire Stroudsmoor team for helping to make our wedding day truly unforgettable.
Abigail Roberts & Eric Yadvish
When I was looking for a woodsy venue to get married at on the east coast, I stumbled upon Woodsgate at Stroudsmoor and it immediately stood out to me! We could get married surrounded by trees, with the ease of an all-inclusive reception a short walk away. When we visited and saw the woodland chapel, even in the middle of winter, my breath was taken away and I wanted to cry because of how perfect and beautiful it is. It’s very secluded and has a lit-up walk to the ceremony site up an adorable path, and the reception hall has a cozy homey feel, while being straight out of a fantasy novel. We didn’t need much floral decor because of
Megan Zinn & Justin Howell
Our wedding at the Stroudsmoor Country Inn (Ridgecrest) was amazing. Kaylie was our planner and she was helpful throughout the entire process. She was timely in answering many emails and if she could not help, she connected us with the right people on property. They could not have made the process easier for us. On the day of the wedding, the other staff was super attentive to the wedding party and the guests. We even had servers bringing food and drinks to our photos after the ceremony. We could not have asked for a better day and our guests gave rave reviews of the property and staff.
Martha Franklin & Rocco Corona
We chose the Stroudsmoor Country Inn’s Lawnhaven venue for our September 1, 2024, wedding. It is a beautiful setting and easy to access for any guests with mobility problems. Our wedding planner, Malia Kasperkevic, was professional, informative and so helpful to us when we were choosing an officiant, photographer, and DJ. We stayed at the Inn the night before the wedding and the night of it. On our wedding eve, we were treated to a surprise, private champagne dinner, thanks to Malia’s request. We then retired to our cozy room at the main Inn. We selected Journeys of the Heart’s Susanne Wilson for our officiant, initially meeting with her to discuss our preferences, then communicating by email to help her
Jessica Ligowski & Dylan Sieh
Our experience was so incredibly enjoyable. My shower & wedding were both on the campus & their attention to detail is unmatched. They’re so flexible & go out of their way to make sure your event is perfect. They communicate so clearly & efficiently throughout the process. Kaylie was my wedding planner & she was so responsive and kind. She was so patient & was willing to answer all my questions. Ryan & Margie made sure the day of ran so smooth. They always made sure I had a drink in hand and my friends and family were all taken care of. So attentive, speedy & put a special touch on everything. Maddy & Anne were great too!
Jaylon Hartley & Chris Snyder
Everything about the Stroudsmoor created the perfect wedding for us. Once we stepped foot at the Stroudsmoor we knew our wedding would be there. The views are breathtaking and the feeling of being in nature is what we wanted for our big day. Then we met our wedding coordinator Malia who is extraordinary. She made the whole process of planning a wedding seamless and low stress for a year. Whatever questions we had or tasks we needed help with she was there the whole time for us. The day of the wedding Malia and Gaby were there for us and made everything stress free and enjoyable. Gaby helped us rehearse our dance the day before so we also felt less

The end of the night got a little hazy for me so please please tell Belkis she was the absolute best!! She was by my side all the time and got Mike and I everything we needed at lightning speed.
