Have a wedding for the history books at Mercer Museum! This 7-story museum was opened in 1916 by Henry Champan Mercer who wanted to create a space that preserved the relics of America in the 18th and 19th centuries. Today, Mercer Museum is home to a collection of over 30,000 handmade tools that were going to be swept away by the Industrial Revolution. With its beautiful castle exterior and rich history inside, you and your guests are sure to be transported back in time! Soon-to-be-weds can become a part of this history when they choose to host their nuptials here.

Facilities and Capacity

Dr. Henry Chapman Mercer, the designer and architect of the property, meant for the museum to look like a castle. This lends itself well to those who want a wedding that has been plucked from the pages of a storybook. When you book here, your engagement party, rehearsal dinner, shower, ceremony, and reception can take place within these halls. Guests can witness your union as you say your vows on the well-manicured lawns or in the Elkins Gallery if you prefer something inside. If you want to dine under the stars, the venue's clear-topped tent offers a spectacular atmosphere. It can also hold up to 150 people, ensuring that all your loved ones can be in attendance. Couples can also go explore the museum and take some one-of-a-kind pictures to commemorate their big day.
