We had the pleasure of getting married at Bear Ridge at the end of August! Bear Ridge was so perfect. Thank you SO much to Chelsea, Seth, and everyone else who helped make our experience at Bear Ridge so amazing. Chelsea and Seth were so prompt in answering any questions we had and they were so helpful working with us and also all of our vendors. They were there for every step leading up to our wedding day as well as doing things behind the scenes on our wedding day to make sure everything went smoothly. We are so beyond thankful. We wish we could relive our weekend at Bear Ridge over and over again. If you are considering Bear Ridge for your wedding venue, we can promise your day will be just as magical as ours!

We had the most magical wedding at Bear Ridge Destination on September 28, 2024, and we truly couldn't have chosen a better place to celebrate our special day! The experience was nothing short of perfect.

One of the highlights was the barndominium where our wedding party stayed, which significantly minimized any stress related to timing and logistics. It allowed us to relax and enjoy every moment leading up to the ceremony.

The venue itself is absolutely stunning—every corner is picturesque and provided the ideal backdrop for our celebration. There wasn't a single detail overlooked when it came to accommodating our wedding needs.

A special shoutout to the owners, Seth and Chelsea, who were amazing throughout the planning process and on the day itself. Their warmth and professionalism made everything run smoothly.

We are so happy with our choice of venue and will cherish the memories made at Bear Ridge Destination forever!

Bear Ridge was everything we could have asked for and more when planning our special day. We got married on October 5th, 2024 after choosing this venue 2 years ago now! We booked our wedding from one coast to the other and Seth and Chelsea made it all so easy when it came down to all the questions!

The venue was gorgeous, the houses were amazing for hosting our families, & the honeymoon cabin was just the perfect place to relax after a long wedding day. Many friends and family talked about this “almost hidden treasure” that is Bear Ridge!

If we could do it all over again we would! I’m sure we’ll be back!🥰

The venue is absolutely beautiful. This was my dream location! On top of that Chelsea has been so communicative through the whole process which helped my anxiety with much of the planing. The new owners have been nothing but friendly and helpful! They made sure everything was absolutely perfect for us, deep cleaned the floors the night before. They even held the doors for all of guests throughout the entire evening. They made sure to be present just in case anything happened. I couldn’t of asked for better service and dedication from them. Thank you to the team at Bear Ridge for making our special day amazing!

Not only is it an absolutely stunning and beautiful venue but it is run by an incredible couple, Seth and Chelsea. From the second I saw the photos of this venue right after I got engaged, I knew this would be the venue I would be married in. I looked at others, but nothing even came close to comparing. I was going for a rustic elegance theme to my wedding and this venue checked alllllll the boxes. It was cozy, warm, angelic and everything in between. We loved getting ready in the downstairs bridal suite space, and it made for wonderful getting ready shots.

Working with Seth and Chelsea was just as amazing as the venue. They are kind, welcoming, and everything you want from a vendor for your wedding. They made everything seamless and stress-free.

We had our wedding here and I could not put into words how magical the entire experience was. We had an outside ceremony surrounded by tall beautiful trees paired with the soothing sounds of the nearby creek, it was like being in paradise and it was a paradise! Then we had reception inside the large barn which had stunning design and breathtaking views from its windows. Only pictures can describe the beautiful venue, which I included in this review. Seth and Chelsea went above and beyond to help us on our special day and we are so thankful for them! 10/10 get married here lol

We were in Erie for a Robert Irvine Foundation event and had the opportunity to stay in this fabulous house. We loved the rustic farmhouse from the structure to the decor. Great property. The hosts are friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend as a wedding venue or for a great getaway trip for a family.

My now wife and I had the amazing experience of getting married at Bear Ridge. The new owners, Chelsea and Seth were so great to work with and really made sure our day was special! They are attentive to details and even though it rained for our ceremony they were ready to help however possible. My wife and I were clearly biased, but we had so much fun seeing our guest reactions to seeing our wedding venue for the first time and staring wide-eyed with amazement! It was great for hosting people from out of town and with nearby hotels, it’s perfect weddings of any size. I would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to visit or get married at Bear Ridge!
