Nemacolin Woodland Resort

Nemacolin was a dream to work with. If you want service, attention to detail and a fabulous location located near Falling Water in the Laurel Highlands, this is a place for you. They have 3 very different hotels on site and each very unique and special in it's own way. My favorite, Falling Rock, is a boutique hotel whose architecture is reminiscent of Frank Lloyd's Falling Water. This hotel only has 50 rooms and all rooms are butler service. My next favorite is the Chateau which is modeled after the Ritz in Paris and is absolutely posh and beautiful with true European influence and flair. The final hotel is the Lodge which are tudor style rooms and the original part of the property. They are nicely furnished and spacious with beautiful bathrooms. This location provided me everything I needed since I lived 3 hours away. My planner, Bobbi, took care of EVERYTHING! I had my bridal party at their World Class spa for hair and makeup and they even provided brunch that morning. They took care of ordering my flowers based on my describing what I wanted. I got better than what I had expected! My husband found the earrings and matching necklace I ended up wearing on my wedding day (diamonds set in white gold...spectacular) at the jewelry shop, Hardy and Hayes, right in the hotel. They arranged the transportation to get me, the wedding party and parents to and from the church 20 minutes away. The grand ballroom was spacious enough for 200 even though we only had 100 and decorated any way we wanted. They contract with a fabulous company who provided us our DJ, (Jeff Stasko was great) and videography. They hosted a 2 hour tasting that allowed us to try everything offered for the buffet we ended up going with and everyone raved about the food and the cake. The cake was done on site by their pastry chef - the cake was very very good! Overall, our guests were overwhelmed by everything the property had to offer and wished they had made plans to stay longer. Many of our guests are planning return visits to take in everything this resort has to offer. I highly recommend any wedding or special occasion to be held here.

I had my wedding here last spring (2007). It was an amazing fairytale of a wedding and a perfect venue!
The wedding planner was relatively helpful, although I did the majority of the planning myself. We put our guests up in the Chateau, townhouses and Walden Pond Estate. That ran a pretty penny but was worth every cent. At Nemacolin you really get what you are paying for. It's top shelf everything and first class service like you've never seen.

We had a three day event wedding: a private dinner the night before, the wedding with reception, and a brunch the following morning. Our reception was held at Mulligan's on the gold course over looking the water. The food was amazing, although looking back on it I would order more appetizers, they were a little on the skimpy side. The main buffet was amazing! The Nemacolin portion of our wedding ran about $30,000.00, but like I said before, was an amazing experience at a magical place.

For a grooms gift, I bought my husband a lifetime ownership of a humidor in their Scotch & Cigar Bar. They hand paint the owner's name on the outside, let me pick the number corresponding to our wedding date and put a big bow around it.

I also bought necklaces of the Nemacolin signature 'fatbird' for my bridesmaids at Nemacolin's jewelry store, Hardy & Hayes. My husband also purchased my Bride's gift there. They were SO accomodating that they allowed me to pick out any jewelry pieces I wanted to wear for not only my wedding day, but for the dinner party the night before also. It was a truly amazing experience!
