The Pump House
Established in 1876, our fully-restored modern solar-powered event space was once a historic oil pumping station. Our first Brick Barn has eight-foot windows filling the space with natural light, soaring ceiling heights, bolted steel beams, and vast open space to accommodate 170 of your family and friends. The Studio Hall is a lovely space adorned with owner Doug’s artwork and eclectic style with tall ceilings and windows for views into the garden, perfect for receptions like micro weddings, and showers, accommodating 75 guests. People can also hang out on our open patio and enjoy its creekside fire pit. The ceremony area is just a short walk to a chapel in the woods, with astounding beautiful creek views that make for the perfect spiritual retreat or an intimate gathering in nature.

Our Brick Barn roof supports eighty solar panels that supply all our energy needs making us close to carbon neutral. Lawn and garden equipment with three electric vehicle charging stations run off our panels.

Professional Network & Endorsements
This is one of the most beautiful and unique settings I've ever been to. And the owners are kind, helpful and professional. If you want a rustic, beautiful and tasteful setting for your wedding I can't recommend it too highly!
Pump House is an amazing venue and one of our favorite's to photograph weddings at! Doug & Marika are the sweetest owners and ensure everything is all in place for your special day! There are so many unique touches to each of the spots around the venue and you can tell much time & thought was put into it! My personal favorite is when the couple gets to dance the night away under the twinkling lights in the brick barn! Or when the ceremony is in the woods and you can hear the babbling creek in the background! So excited to be photographing more weddings there soon! :)
