Wonderful venue for wedding welcome reception!

We had a pre-wedding welcome reception at the Appalachian location in Harrisburg. The folks at ABC were great to work with and we had a great time and would HIGHLY recommend them for wedding events. We found their information online, and were able to quickly have a tour of the space (we were in the Abbey bar, the second floor of the brewery which was reserved for us) and received a quote for the event. The beers were excellent, the food was amazing and plentiful (we had the tater tots, pretzel sticks, bruschetta and a slider bar). We initially booked the space for three hours but ended up extending it during the event since our guests were having so much fun! We definitely recommend Appalachian!

Comprehensive service, gorgeous venue

We worked with special events manager Eli throughout the planning process. (We think he's a manager, anyway. He should be if he isn't, because he was a total boss.) He helped us plan everything about our reception, he was very flexible and easy to work with, and he made it very easy for us to get our other vendors in touch with him directly to answer questions and coordinate day-of logistics. We used the entire second floor for our reception, which included the Abbey bar, the Gallery Room, and the outdoor patio. The second floor was easily accessible, even for a few of our family members with limited mobility. The whole reception was just lovely. Our guests loved that pool and shuffleboard were available throughout the night. As far as pricing, the venue was extremely affordable. We made a small deposit when we first booked the event and then wrote a check for the remainder at the end of the night on the day of the wedding. ABC provided the food for cocktail hour and dinner (we opted for plated meals, but they offer buffet-style for events, too), linens, drinks, and amazing staff for the night. We were very happy with the entire planning experience, and the reception was everything we could have asked for.

Great Experience

I got married at ABC this fall and had a very positive experience! The space itself is beautiful, classic, and historic and was a great backdrop to my simple, minimalist aesthetic (although I think it could suit a lot of different styles well). The food and drinks were good and a great value. We played our music on the sound system and that was easy to setup and sounded great.
Alisha, the event coordinator at ABC, was very helpful and went above and beyond. During the planning stages she was very helpful with offering advice on schedule, layout of the room, etc. and was very flexible and willing to work with our budget. The day of the wedding she was invaluable and really helped the day to run smoothly.
