    I got married at Darby House on April 6th, 2024! The venue itself is beautiful, so classy and romantic. We worked with Kayla who was so helpful from the start of the planning process to the very end, we only had a 6 month engagement, which was no problem with how easy planning with Darby House was! Kayla, along with our other vendors, made our wedding day so perfect and there wasn't a second where I was worried about the timeline of events or things being where they needed to be, because Darby House had it covered! The all-inclusive pricing made planning so much easier since so many vendors come as a part of the package when you book your wedding, it saved me time and mental energy to just relax and focus on my relationship with my now husband. We loved our Darby House Wedding and I hope I get to attend a wedding there in the future!

  • Darby House was the BEST decision we made!

    I cannot express enough how incredible it was to have our October 2020 wedding at the Darby House in Galloway! Not only was Nicole, the most professional and caring coordinator we could have ever asked for but the staff and everyone on the team was so helpful and caring it made wedding planning a breeze! (Nicole even lent me her scarf when i was outside and freezing at one point between ceremony and Reception!!!). We fell in love with the venue when we drove into the property, but the building and surroundings are so beautiful full of history and elegance you will barely need any decorations it speaks for itself! The Darby House team provides you with all of the planning tools you will need as well as several other tools for inspiration, decoration and support throughout your wedding planning process. Do yourself a favor and make the trip out to visit Nicole and her Team... You will not regret it.
