    We loved having our wedding ceremony at Historic Acres of Hershey. The venue offers quick responses to questions, which made planning easy. The coop provided a beautiful, intimate setting for our small ceremony. The venue was great and set up perfectly for our special day - we didn't have to worry about a thing. Overall, Historic Acres offers great value with its gorgeous grounds that are perfect for wedding photos. We highly recommend this venue for couples looking for a small, elegant wedding ceremony site.

    Historic Acres is a stunning wedding venue and provided the best backdrop for our big day! The team was easy to work with and there was plenty of space for our guests to spread out. If you are fortunate enough to have your event outside, the flow of the venue is exceptional! What kept us from giving five stars were that the morning/early afternoon of our wedding, there was another event on site and couples touring the venue which took away from our privacy. The contract states the venue is yours after 2pm and you can pay more for it to be yours all day so if this would impact you, I would recommend doing so. We also had to make the decision the day before about being inside versus outside due to a 50/50 wedding forecast which was difficult. Finally, you are not able to store items on site prior to your wedding day. Thankfully we rented a van and paid our vendors more to pack/unpack the van so there was less of a lift for us on our big day but worth noting!

    HAH was truly the most amazing venue we could have asked for. The landscape and location was beautiful and we had friends and family saying it was the most beautiful wedding location they have ever seen. Not only was it perfect for pictures, but we also had full reign of the property with our guests inside, outside, at the firepit, playing cornhole, everything possible. It was the perfect day and Katie made it SO easy and seamless through the whole process.
