The food is first rate and that's clearly something in which the that Inn takes a lot of pride. It shows. Could not be happier with our room which provided great privacy and space and wonderful views in the evening. A couple small hiccups at the beginning but the management went out of their way successfully to make sure everything was worked out beyond our satisfaction. We are seasoned travelers and we don't expect things to be perfect; what we expect is the kind of alert customer service and conscientiousness that we experienced, that made everything perfect in very short order. We can't wait to get there again! Highly recommend.

This is a lovely getaway just a short distance from the DC area! The spa is so clean and inviting…read more Andrea was kind and gentle for my first massage experience, explaining the service and offering additional options. I would recommend even just coming for a spa service! The buildings and grounds are well kept and romantic. We enjoyed seeing a horse back riding lesson next door while walking around. If we had more time, we would have enjoyed playing a game of chess with the large lawn pieces or smores around the fire pit. We stayed in the lookout room and found it charming and clean. The charcuterie in the mini fridge was a really nice touch. The dining rooms are beautifully decorated and a warm, romantic atmosphere. Our dinner server Jessi was very accomodating and friendly. The food was deliciously made and presented. We enjoyed the little extras that weren't listed on the menu like the tapenade "amuse bouche" and ginger ice palate cleanser. However, I am only giving four stars because I was disappointed by the vegetarian dinner entree option. A cauliflower steak offers no protein value and I left still hungry. This wouldn't bother me if the price were half as much. It seems like it would have been easy to offer a lentil and/or chickpea stew with the same tikka masala sauce the cauliflower was served in - still vegan/vegetarian and much more filling. Or a pasta, tofu, tempeh... so many other options that could have better justified the price to me. At least breakfast was incredible and filling with the eggs. Overall a lovely stay but for dinner I would recommend that vegans/ vegetarians consider whether the price is worth it!

My wife and I were keen on finding a venue that had a vibrant nature and outdoorsy vibe. We were…read moreimmediately charmed when we first saw East Lynn Farms, and met the team behind its operation. The owners Georgia and Peter were incredibly supportive, and gave sage advice throughout our planning process. In addition, Alyson, who handles the emails for the farm, was always incredibly quick to provide responses to our questions, and was a pleasure to communicate with. We visited the venue a couple times throughout 2019 between January and our wedding this past September. It takes some imagination to picture how the grounds would look like on your wedding day, because it transforms so much with each season. However, we thought it was gorgeous and made for a terrific backdrop each time we visited regardless of the season. The farm is between an hour to an hour and a half outside of D.C. so it is a fantastic option for getting a rustic venue space that is still accessible for our friends living in the city and the families flying in to Reagan or Dulles. There is a lot of flexibility for events at East Lynn Farms, which may be a stressor for couples depending on their appetite for DIY versus a turnkey wedding option. The farm includes some decorations and a list of recommended vendors, but we were not restricted to the list as long as the vendors we chose had the appropriate license and insurance. The farm allows you to provide our own beverages for events, and we were able to save quite a bit by sourcing our drinks from Costco rather than ordering through the caterer. My wife and I were initially worried about how hot might be at the tail end of Summer, and we contemplated renting fans or A/C units for the wedding. Thankfully, Georgia advised us that the surrounding mountains provided the area with a cooler ambient temperature and a reasonable breeze that negated the need for that hefty expense. On our wedding day, the weather was perfect! Even at the peak of the afternoon it never got so hot that it was uncomfortable to wear a suit jacket, and at the end of the night it wasn't so cold that one needed a jacket. There's no limit of the amount of praise and recommendations my wife and I would give to East Lynn! We honestly couldn't have imagined a better place to have our wedding!

Other than deciding to get married in the first place, working with Ashly and B.Mingled might be…read morethe best decision we ever made. I mean this in total honesty: we could not have had the wedding that we wanted without them. They took care of details that we didn't even know existed. Things that could have surprised us and derailed us were handled quickly, expertly, and seamlessly by Ashly and her team. Plus, they're absolutely delightful people. When any of my friends, family, or loved ones in the DMV get married, I hope Ashly is available to work with them.

I truly don't know where to begin. I know when searching wedding vendors, many of them have 5 stars…read moreand it can be a challenge selecting which vendor is right for you. However, Ashly and her team deserve 10 stars! I have never in my entire life met someone as professional, organized, kind-hearted and caring as Ashly from B.Mingled. Let me start with the software B.Mingled provides, Aisle Planner. This software is a GAME CHANGER for wedding planning. Before I signed with Ashly, I was literally planning my wedding on various sticky notes. Aisle planner has EVERYTHING from your guest list, to contract uploads, to payment reminders, to a very detailed checklist that is organized by months leading up to the wedding, to the seating chart customized to your venue layout. And the best part? Ashly helps you manage the software. I am not sure if other planner/coordinator companies offer this software, but what I do know is that Ashly & her team are simply unmatched. I hired Ashly as our Day-of-coordinator, but she is so much more than that - she is ALWAYS there when you need her even months before the wedding. She was more like a 2-3 month coordinator with the emails, texts and calls and always happy to help with anything we needed (I know I had a ton of stupid questions and she was always more than happy to help). Ashly is extremely detail oriented. She provided a very detailed schedule to me and all of my vendors, which was amazing as it eliminated any confusion. I have been in many weddings where no one knows what is going on or when to be here or there. I shared this timeline with my wedding party and there was never any question of where people needed to be at what time, and that really made a huge difference for the flow of the wedding. And to be honest it was INCREDIBLE as the Bride to. not have to answer a million and one questions from everyone because every last detail was on the timeline. One thing I really loved about Ashly was that she told me she would not contact me for any reason on my wedding day. She took down our MOH and BM's numbers and contacted them all day if any minor issues popped up or if she was just checking in to see how I was doing. She did not want me to worry about anything, and it was so nice to just be able to relax and trust that everything was taken care of - which it was! On the day of my wedding, I was staying in a cottage onsite of the venue which is where I had my girls come for hair and makeup. Ashly arrived to the venue, made sure everything was going well, and then loaded up her car with all of our decor items for the ceremony/reception (multiple boxes) and transported them to the venue. I had a couple sticky notes on some of the decor with some instruction, but other decor items didn't and I trusted her to place them where she thought looked good and holy moly did she do an incredible job! My reception space was absolutely breathtaking because of her setup. Also, at the end of the night, I did not have to worry about A THING. Ashly and her assistant, Alyssa, carefully organized and packed up all of our belongings and transported all of my boxes back to the cottage at the end of the night. This is the best part. Ashly literally saved my wedding. Unfortunately, two of my other vendors were absolutely horrible and made me cry multiple times throughout the day/evening. Not only did Ashly have my back and stood up for me, but she made sure that I didn't have to deal with the vendors face to face and she took total charge in fixing the issues. It was so nice having someone go to battle for me so I could just enjoy myself and my loved ones. Not only that, but she always made sure I was doing great and always made sure I had a drink in my hand! Both Ashly and Alyssa were always there for me and supporting me. I never had to go and search for them, they were always nearby and ready to help with whatever I needed. I can imagine having to deal with the vendor crisis was chaotic, but you would never know as Ashly has this incredible calm and collected presence that fills the room. The fact that she was running my entire wedding AND STILL made so much time to check in on me and get me anything I needed is truly remarkable. Not only was Ashly an amazing coordinator, but she was an AMAZING FRIEND on my wedding day. I do not know what I would have done without Ashly. I truly cannot picture my wedding without her and I certainly will never forget her. She was hands down the best vendor we hired for our wedding. I truly believe she is the best coordinator in the game! If I could give you one piece of advice for your wedding, CHOOSE ASHLY/THE B.MINGLED TEAM AS YOUR WEDDING COORDINATOR. Trust me, you will not regret it.

I had my full trust in their design expertise and gave them so much control and I'm so happy I did because it was absolutely beautiful (trust the experts!). My florals were more beautiful than I could've even imagined. The whole experience is a family affair. There's no stuffiness or cookie cutter event experience you are interacting with some of the most genuine and kind people that keep that wariness while also being the utmost professionals. Even while we were getting ready we felt we were absolutely taken care of by the staff (Ava in particular was extremely attentive and kind) And the food is just incredible! From our tasting, to our breakfast, no one goes hungry here. They are extremely accommodating to dietary restrictions and allergies and every single thing I tried was *chef's kiss.* The BnB rooms are clean and cozy and well-decorated. They come stocked with snacks and most essentials you may need and one of my bridesmaids now wants to know the mattress brand because her bed was so comfortable. We cannot wait to get our professional photos back and we are so happy that we have new friends in Natallia and Anthony!

The ribs were seasoned down to the bone-- tender, with a nice fleshy bite-- and the sauce was finger-licking. Collards were simmered to perfection with a sweet balance of zesty and savory. But let's get to the pièce de résistance-- arguably the most important feature of any respectable July 4th celebration-- the POTATO SALAD. I asked for a "righteous" potato salad without egg, and Chef Penn hit it out of the park. The texture of the potato, the creaminess of the well-seasoned mayo that held everything together... we truly relished every scrumptious bite. I only had leftovers because I had to fight (almost to death) for it. Thanks again to Chef Penn and his team for lightening my load, and being the central reason why my event was such an overwhelming success!
