The Duportail House is a historic farmhouse that doubles as a wedding venue for couples in and around Wayne, Pennsylvania, and beyond. This property, which sits on the outskirts of Valley Forge National Historical Park, features three landscaped acres for couples dreaming of a naturalistic celebration. Moments away from the Schuylkill River and at the footsteps of a stunning national park, this building provides the ideal backdrop for private festivities. Here, couples and their guests are welcome to rejoice in unison as two families come together and become one.

Facilities and Capacity

Couples can invite up to 160 guests to their wedding event or celebration at the Duportail House. They will find access to the first two floors of the farmhouse as well as the surrounding grounds. The first floor of the house features grand antique rooms for couples to transform and decorate into the dream setting they’ve always envisioned. They can enjoy the 18th-century ambiance of thick stone walls, wooden floors, original moldings and fireplaces, and an inviting front porch. There is also a tented patio that couples can make use of in the warmer months and heat in the cooler months. On the second floor of the house, the wedding suite and bath offers a private space for couples to get ready and relax before the big moment arrives. There is also a beautiful outdoor barn for couples to use for hosting a ceremony or a cocktail hour if they desire. The Federal Barn is a weathered wood and stone structure that adds charm and history to a couple’s special day.

This farmhouse, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, welcomes couples for their ceremony and an array of other milestone events. The venue offers a wedding planner to help couples with all the aspects of their wedding day. This allows the couple to focus on more pressing matters and fully enjoy this one-of-a-kind experience.

Perfect for my Small Wedding!

Perfect for our small, quaint, historical wedding. Its a beautiful venue and the coordinator, Kate, was a pleasure to work with. I was so happy she was there for my day too!

don't look any further.

This property is absolutely stunning and has so many options for where to hold the ceremony, cocktail hour, etc. You can't go wrong. Everywhere you look is a gorgeous location. We had our ceremony behind the barn, cocktail hour in the barn, and our reception in the house with dining under a tent behind it. Everyone loved the venue. The historic aspect matched with the sheer beauty of the property was just perfect. AND: KATE IS A ROCK STAR. She will bend over backwards to help and assist you in any way to make sure everything goes smoothly for your big day. She was an absolute joy to work with. I cannot recommend this property enough!!!!

A Magical Experience!

We hosted our wedding reception at Duportail and it was an absolutely magical experience. From first arrival, Kate led me around the beautiful historic house (which barely needs any decor - the house is a decoration itself!), showing how we could use the antique spaces for eating, dancing, and socializing. The day-of Kate was on point the entire time and helpful for whatever we needed. We had a small reception of about 40 people and everyone fit comfortably, even during COVID. The outdoor space was fresh and quiet. It was everything we could have asked for and more at an amazing price point.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
