As one of the most special days of your entire life, you deserve everything to be perfect, and if you are a couple who wishes to incorporate nature’s beauty into your day without sacrificing any of the luxuries afforded to a wedding day, Fernstone Retreat is the perfect venue for you.

The private property features a breathtaking hand hewn Grand Oak Pavilion that can seat up to 250 of your loved ones, rustic lanterns, an on site waterfall, wooden foot bridge that makes a great photo opportunity, two stocked fishing ponds, miles of hiking trails that adorn the property, and an overall sense of whimsy that can’t be artificially procured.

The property also offers unique on-site accommodations that can sleep up to 45 guests and allow the celebration to continue all night long. Have you ever wanted to take a trip to The Shire, or spend a night in the treetops? Well, Fernstone boasts two treehouses and a hobbit house, in addition to its more traditional lodging options.For these reasons, Fernstone Retreat serves as the premier destination for weddings in the Laurel Highlands, and was selected by The Knot as a feature in their “Best of 2015” magazine and has remained a top featured venue ever since.
