Abington Art Center was the perfect location for our wedding! It was a really beautiful setting at 30-50% of the cost of the other venues we looked at in the area. The outdoor space is fabulous and we took some fun pictures in the sculpture park.

The team there is also great to work with -- Sharon was really professional and has great relationships with all of our vendors, making the day run seamlessly.

I loved this venue! I had the most wonderful experience at the Abington Art Center. Everything about it was perfect. Sharon is the coordinator. She is the absolute best person to work with. I would recomend to everyone who wants a gorgeous wedding in a unique venue for an affordable price.

Absolutely WONDERFUL venue! My husband and I knew as soon as we walked into the facility, that it was our dream venue. :)

Sharon, the Facility Manager, was absolutely wonderful, easy to reach, and helped things go very smoothly on our day. Friendly staff, the scenery is gorgeous and our guests LOVED the art gallery.

I HIGHLY recommend this venue.

Abington Art Center was the perfect venue for our wedding. Sharon, the event coordinator, was fantastic. The building itself was gorgeous, and the grounds are beautiful. The pavilion outside makes it easy to have an outdoor wedding without the hassle of having to rent a tent. We chose to have our ceremony out in the garden, the leave the patio untented for cocktail hour and have the reception in the pavilion. It was beautiful and all I keep hearing from guests was that this was "the best wedding I've ever been to"! Thank you Sharon and Abington Art Center!

We received so many compliments from our wedding guests on our beautiful choice of a reception venue, and we couldn't agree more! We knew as soon as we walked into the pavilion that it was exactly what we were looking for - beautiful grounds to explore during the cocktail hour, and a classy (covered!) outdoor space for dinner and dancing. We communicated with Sharon and, after Sharon retired a few weeks before our wedding, worked with Brooke - both ladies were responsive and helpful. The day-of could not have gone better! We arrived at the Art Center after our ceremony to find all of our decorations set up (I believe the AAC worked with the florist to coordinate it all). They even figured out how to set up things that I did not leave instructions for, and when the night was over they had already packed most of our things away so we didn't have to waste more time than necessary getting everything taken down. It's a very DIY-friendly venue, and they help you facilitate it. They let us use the kitchen the day before the wedding to assemble our frozen desserts, and were happy to let us set up lawn games on the grounds.

I give them a small ding in points for value, simply because it was very expensive to rent the venue - especially since we weren't having both our ceremony and reception there. But, at the same time, we're really happy that our money supported such a worthy nonprofit. As for a half-point deduction for flexibility... truly they were SO flexible overall, but the one thing that was frustrating was that we had to clear out absolutely everything the night of the wedding - it couldn't wait until the next morning. It would have been much more convenient for us if we could get everything in the morning, but of course we do understand the policy.

Overall, we had a wonderful time and are so pleased that we chose the Abington Art Center as our reception venue!

We received tons of compliments on how beautiful this venue was! Everyone loved the building, the artwork in the galleries, and the sculptures. The staff was amazing, courteous and professional. Sharon (venue coordinator) answered all my questions quickly and was there the entire night to oversee. The price was very reasonable and worth it. Only drawbacks - we had to take all our decorations (etc) away that same night (11:30/12:00pm), which was rather inconvenient.

This venue was extremely flexible with my ceremony and reception. They also assisted me during my rehearsal. Great landscape and great people to work with for your special day.
