Choosing The Inn at Leola Village was 100% the best wedding decision we could have made!! Everything was incredible and seamless, from the planning process to the wedding weekend.

First of all, what a gorgeous venue! We had our wedding reception in the crystal ballroom and it was beautiful. The Eden staff worked seamlessly with our vendors to ensure everything went smoothly. I can’t say enough how helpful Megan Supeck was in our planning process. She was so communicative and transparent. She seemed as happy as we were about our wedding! From beginning to end, she went out of her way to make sure we had what we needed. We also enjoyed staying in the Paradise Suite the night of the wedding. They had a bottle of champagne read for us when we got to the room and complimentary breakfast the next morning. I was so stressed with wedding planning, but Megan and her team really put me at ease.

Found this venue through zola and ended up being the perfect place for our wedding! Not only is the venue, beautiful and historic the food and the ambience was great! We were planning this wedding from afar, and Justine was a perfect host and responded quickly to any request we had. She basically planned our whole wedding for us down to the cake and flowers and we couldn’t be happier. We were not working with a huge budget and they were able to accommodate our every need. We had an adorable ceremony inside the venue with dinner and reception afterwards. A full buffet with all the fixings and incredible appetizers. Everyone was not raving about the friendly staff but the spirits that were made in house. If you are looking for an affordable rustic wedding venue with homemade spirits this is the place!

We cannot say enough about the Mt. Washington Tavern. The whole team made planning our wedding so easy, that I occasionally felt like I was forgetting something. Well, I didn’t forget anything. We wanted a ceremony with a cocktail-style reception featuring heavy hors d’oeuvres, and the Tavern helped us plan it exactly. Our day was perfect, and we owe so much of it to the Tavern staff. Mary, the venue’s coordinator, was incredible. She was prompt and clear in her communications, made helpful suggestions, and really made sure our vision became reality. Holly, the MWT’s decorator, did an incredible job with the bouquets, and decorations; they could not have been more affordable. Shannon, the pastry chef, made us a small cake for cutting and a bunch of mini desserts. We had guests telling us it was the best wedding cake they’d ever had. Our guests also raved about the ahi tuna bar, and how well everything came together. All the kudos goes to the MWT, their attention to detail is incredible, and we could not have had such a wonderful day without them. They even packed us up leftovers to take home, so we didn’t have to cook before leaving on our honeymoon. If you want wedding planning to be easy, get married here.

Our wedding at The Rivet was everything we could have hoped for and more. From start to finish, the experience was flawless, thanks in large part to Meisee and her incredible team. She was attentive, organized, and went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. Throughout months of planning, she was always available to answer questions and offer guidance, and on the wedding day, her support was invaluable.

We rented half the upstairs area in Blue Pit for our rehearsal dinner and I have a feeling it won't be the last time we reach out to Blue Pit for an event or catering. Cara, the owner, is wonderful and very accommodating. The space is cute and quirky and doesn't need much decoration for events. The food is DELICIOUS every single time we visit and this was no exception. Our bartender and main point of contact for the night was Brad, who was amazing every step of the way. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose Blue Pit every time. You can't go wrong here.

We were the first wedding that True Chesapeake had done and they exceeded our expectations. We really had a unique wedding experience thanks to them. Guests had access to an oyster bar right when they walk in as well as an open bar. Planning was easy because almost everything was through True Chesapeake. They set up the chairs for our ceremony, then flipped the room. They set up the bridal party space with drinks and snacks so we didn’t go hungry. Communicating with their team was easy, punctual , and efficient. The food was obviously in house and AMAZING! Everyone said we had the best wedding food. Our wedding felt like exactly what we wanted!

How Do Seasonal Considerations Affect Pennsylvania Venues?

Fall weddings in Pennsylvania feature dramatic foliage transformations where sugar maples create natural cathedrals of red and gold around your ceremony. Winter celebrations often include cozy fire pit areas and indoor spaces with floor-to-ceiling windows that preserve those mountain views while keeping everyone comfortable. Spring venues showcase flowering dogwoods and redbud trees that add natural beauty without extra decor costs. Summer weddings typically utilize cooling stations and covered outdoor areas to help everyone stay comfortable during Pennsylvania's humid July afternoons. The season really shapes your experience.

What Should You Ask When Touring Pennsylvania Wedding Venues?

Ask about sound ordinance restrictions especially in historic districts where noise limitations might affect your party timeline. Find out if venues allow outside catering for cultural food requirements you might have. Check whether spaces have dedicated power supplies for entertainment equipment to avoid day-of surprises. Inquire about separate areas for cocktail hours during room transitions so guests aren't left waiting awkwardly. Also confirm whether venue staff assists with setup and breakdown of your personal decorations as policies vary widely between properties.
