Why Stone Gables Estate is a Top Wedding Venue in PA: Stone Gables Estate is not just one beautiful venue... It's not even two. It's three distinct venues on one stunning property. The Stone Gables Estate boasts Ironstone Ranch, The Star Barn, and St. Michael's Vineyard. Each of these venues is unique, isolated on the property and absolutely worth considering for you wedding day. Whether you're having a massive event or a more intimate celebration, Stone Gables will be able to craft a great experience just for you!
One of the things I absolutely love about shooting weddings at Stone Gables Estate is the variety on the property. There are open fields, tree groves, wooded areas, orchards, and so much more. No matter what type of weather is thrown at us, I know we'll have excellent option for your pictures!

The grounds at Stone Gables Estate offer a ton of variety. There are open fields, babbling brooks, a pond, wooded areas and the many buildings themselves. There's always a beautiful background for stunning pictures. I've shot here many times and have never run into a scenario that was difficult to photograph

Beautiful Property
I am normally not a big fan of venues with multiple weddings happening at the same time, but because Stone Gables Estate is so massive, they can easily handle multiple weddings without their couples or guests ever knowing. This also gives good variety to the couples who book first!
The team at Stone Gables Estate is going to make your wedding exceptional and ensure your day flows with ease. Whether you're local to Lancaster County or this is a destination wedding for you, you'll be able to rest easy knowing their team has your back.
Because Stone Gables Estate is a farm, there are quite a few add-on services that can help make your wedding truly unique. Want to get pictures with the Longhorns? Check. Want a ride on a horse-drawn carriage? Check. Want a mini petting zoo during cocktail hour? Check.
Whether you're looking for fireworks in the evening, food trucks, a reception band or other types of niche services, Stone Gables Estate can point you in the right direction and make the wedding planning process easy on you. Between their guidance to top notch local vendors, and our experience, your day will be one that you and your guests rave about for years to come!

Full Day Coverage
No need to Worry about missing a moment
I know that every time my wife or I feel stressed out, it’s a great idea to just stop, relax and take stock. This is never more true than when planning a wedding. My advice (having worked in the industry for many years and planned my own wedding) is to take some time to get your wedding priorities straight. What is important to you may not be as important to someone else. Figure out what you care most about and then go from there. For most of our couples, that means finding the perfect venue then finding the right photographer to capture it all.
How to be the most laid-back bride (or groom) on the planet
Nathan’s philosophy
kind words
“Nathan was a pleasure to work with for our wedding. His day started with us at 10am and he and his team stayed with us for over 12 hours! Many of our guests came to us after and asked who our photographer was because they were "on point" capturing every moment. From the very beginning of the process, he was extremely accommodating with our requests and flexible with us when need be. We are so excited to see the final results and can't wait to see the final images!”

frequently asked questions
How long have you been shooting weddings?
We have been shooting weddings since 2007 and have hundreds of them under our belt. We’ve worked at Stone Gables Estate many times along with countless other venues in Lancaster and Philadelphia, in every season, weather, lighting, and size. We've seen it all!
Can I give you a list of shots that I want on my wedding day?
You can. However, we've found that it is best to just share images with us that are non-standard, or ones we wouldn't have known about had you not told us. Don't worry, we'll be sure to capture family pictures, your first kiss, and all of the "normal" stuff. Leading up to the wedding, we'll send you a questionnaire to fill out and then jump on a call with you to go over all of the important details.
Do you bring back-up equipment to every shoot?
We do. We have extra batteries, memory cards, lenses, and cameras. We're never going to be careless on someone's wedding day!
Do you travel?
We love to travel and experience new places. If your wedding is within 100 miles (round trip) of our studio, there are no extra fees. If it is further away, we'd be happy to give you a custom quote to cover nominal travel expenses. There are no travel fees for Stone Gables Estate Weddings.
Are the images we see edited?
All of the final images we post (usually between 850-1250) are color-corrected, cropped, and ready for printing. If you like the work you see on our website, you'll love your own images! Editing styles/filters come and go over time, but one of the consistent things we hear from our couples is that they love our timeless style while remaining vibrant, bold and authentic!
Please shoot our wedding! How do we book you?
