There are not enough words in the world to describe how amazing our wedding day was at the Pearl S. Buck Estate! We fell in love with this venue on Instagram- and as soon as we pulled into the grounds we KNEW this was where we wanted to get married. The pictures are gorgeous- and the real thing is even more stunning! Pearl S Buck offers many options for wedding ceremonies- so it can be tailored to each individual vision, budget, and taste.

WOW! everything and I mean everything about our wedding was perfection. The venue itself, the perfectly groomed grounds, the food at Jamie Hollander, Leslie & Rachael, I could go on forever. Everyone raved about the food and how beautiful the venue was. We got lucky with beautiful weather and I could not be happier with Pearl Buck Estate and Jamie Hollander Catering. Well worth every penny.

The Pearl S. Buck Estate was the perfect venue for our October wedding. The grounds are stunning and are an ideal location for photos. They have seasonal flowers and plants all over the patio and throughout the grounds. From the cocktail hour setup on the patio to the beautifully lit reception tent, everything was top notch. If you are looking for a rustic feel that is high class, this is the place.
