Historic Tobacco Barn reassembled on Stone Gables Estate!

A trail ride that ended with an engagement!

The first time, they had a very small wedding. So when Amber’s husband was selected as a recipient of a “Wish Upon a Wedding”, she was about to have her wedding dreams come true with a vow renewal unlike any other. Similar to the “Make A Wish Foundation”, the “Wish Upon a Wedding” organization provides couples who are facing a terminal illness or a life-altering health condition with an all-expenses-paid wedding day of their dreams. When Stone Gables Estate was invited to be the host venue for Amber and Michael’s wedding, we were honored and excited to participate. Stone Gables offered the couple The Star Barn for their vow renewal and reception and the quaint Liberty Spring House for their lodging that night both at no cost to the couple. The event was led by Wedding Coordinator, Gillian McSherry, who enlisted a dedicated group of vendors, as listed below, who donated 100% of their labor, services and materials. A wedding day is often sprinkled with a variety of emotions. This particular day had an added layer of sentiment as the groom was in an active fight with brain cancer. Although everyone involved was aware of his battle, it was not the theme of the day. The couple was showered with special touches and meaningful gestures to make this vow renewal more than they could have ever dreamed of. The complete story was covered by Lancaster Online and can be found here . Mountain Laurel Catering also featured the event on their website and shared a gallery of exquisite photos by Lauren Bliss which can be viewed here .
