Gettysburg venue suggestions

Lana, on September 13, 2020 at 11:01 AM Posted in Pennsylvania Planning 0 10
Hello!!

I'm located in Illinois but FH and I are getting married in Gettysburg!!! He's a history teacher and civil war buff. I was wondering if any of you would be able to recommend or have been married in some of the local places there? I have looked at a few places like The Lodges and have even looked into the GAR Building since we're having only about 35 people. How much did it cost? Did you use the recommended vendors at certain places? Catering? Weather permitting, we want to get married on the battlefield!!!! And of course, it's going to be civil war themed!!! LOL
Thanks for any help or recommendations!!!!!

    Hi Lana! I'm not in the area, but Stone of Scone Farm and Beech Springs Farms are two venues worth checking out! The Pub & Restaurant in Gettysburg also has really gorgeous private dining rooms!

    Have you seen the Gettysburg Lincoln Railroad Station? They have a listing on here with photos and reviews. I was looking at them as well but they haven’t responded to my inquires yet. Would be a really cool historic venue though!! Their outdoor space looks to be covered too.

    I did see it!! I've also looked at the GAR Hall, The Lodges at Gettysburg, the FD social hall, and The Pike restaurant. It's so hard to choose!!!

    I live in Gettysburg! The Gettysburg Hotel would be gorgeous, especially for pictures in the square, but right now they have the college kids there due to Covid, so I’m not sure how long they’ll be there. Also for the battlefield Sachs Bridge is a really beautiful location!

    Hi Lana,
    My partner and I are having our postponed wedding celebration at The Lodges this summer. The property is beautiful and perfect for a Civil War themed wedding. They have different areas for the reception and a great space for a non fire after for anyone who is staying on property. I loved not having to think about room blocks because it was part of the package, as was catering. So helpful! That said, I also support looking at Beech Springs Farm or check out Destination Gettysburg (www.destinationgettysburg.com for other wedding venue suggestions. Battlefield B&B is also lovely and right next to the Battlefields.
