About

Harmony Gardens is a gorgeous outdoor space designed especially for your wedding. It is a unique and beautiful place for your ceremony.

If you plan a smaller wedding and are looking for a beautiful outdoor ceremony site - Harmony Gardens is perfect.

When your guest list is less than 35 people, hotels and resort venues may not be a good fit, you still deserve a charming setting for this important milestone in your life. It can be difficult to find the right ceremony spot. This is why we created Harmony Gardens.

It's the perfect elopement spot as well!

Perhaps you're having a celebration at a hall or restaurant, or simply going out for a meal to celebrate, it's difficult to find the right location for the ceremony.

One and a half hours from New York City and Philadelphia, and only 45 minutes from Allentown or Scranton

I can create the perfect ceremony for you and officiate it here in the garden. We also have our very special, round pavilion for a rain back-up, and you can add a social hour with a toast and cake!

There is plenty of support space, parking, rest rooms and bridal suite to get dressed.

We've thought of everything you'll need to insure a wonderful wedding ceremony. We are pet friendly and environmentally friendly. Celebrant Lois Heckman is the owner and will be delighted to officiate for you, or you may bring your own officiant.

Absolutely Beautiful

We have nothing but amazing things to say about Harmony Gardens!! Lois took our wedding to the next level, by making it very personal and about us and what we wanted. If you are looking for a small wedding, Harmony Gardens is the perfect place. We really couldn't have asked for anyone better to do our ceremony and there wasn't a thing that we would have changed!!

Beautiful place and a wonderful ceremony!

This is an amazing place to have a small intimate ceremony. Everything was perfect and Lois was so accommodating. She conducted such a good ceremony and went above and beyond! We had a rainy day but they have a beautiful covered gazebo. She even helped me clean my wedding dress after I got mud on it! ❤️ I highly recommend using her services! Thanks again Lois!

In addition to creativity & sensitivity, Harmony Gardens does a wonderful job of putting together a wonderfully personalized wedding ceremony for their clients. I provide sound reinforcement for many weddings each year, and always look forward to seeing Lois officiate a ceremony; she is a consummate professional whose ceremonies are always a wonderful blend of sentiment and humor!

Lois Heckman's Harmony Gardens are absolutely wonderful. I photographed a wedding there in the fall and it was gorgeous! The site as designed by Lois and built almost totally by her husband Kent. They have a terrific sense of style to make the gardens very peaceful and inviting. David W. Coulter Photography
