  Water Works formerly drew visitors from all over the world, including Charles Dickens, who commended the "pleasing design" of the building for its blend of graceful Neoclassical architecture on the outside with then-revolutionary technology on the inside. Columned walkways, a vintage gazebo, the Art Museum perched dramatically above, and Boathouse Row stretched out along the Schuylkill River just beyond are some of the features that contribute to the Water Works' status as one of the city's most picturesque settings. Today, the Water Works offers lavish interior spaces that are replete with rich contemporary luxury. Adding an outdoor ceremony to your reception is something that should come as no surprise given the famous views, classically exquisite structures, groomed fields, and gardens that are all around you. The Water Works is home to a diverse range of environments, the likes of which are not often found in a single venue. The breathtaking scenery, tasteful architecture, and beautifully manicured grounds make it an obvious decision to hold the ceremony and reception outside.

  Springwood Manor is a renovated century-old stone estate set on wooded hills just outside Pittsburgh in Verona, Pennsylvania. The property began as a farmhouse built around 1870 and was later home to horticulturist Herbert Hoechstetter, whose landscaping business shaped the grounds and whose additions—a sandstone facade, cherry wood paneling, and a fireplace mantle built from an old barn's support beams—still define the house today. A three-year renovation transformed the property into the event venue it is now, framed by Japanese larch, maples, pin oak, chestnut, holly, copper beech, and bamboo. The Manor hosts indoor and outdoor wedding ceremonies, receptions, and corporate events for up to 270 guests. Ceremony sites include Garden Square, with its pergola and separate entrances for the bridal party; the Stone Patio; the Gazebo nestled among the trees; and the Glass Atrium, used for winter ceremonies. The vaulted-ceiling Pavilion, with its scissor trusses and chandeliers, serves as both a reception space for music and dancing and the venue's rain plan. A wooden, three-tier rear deck wraps the back of the stone house and connects to the surrounding grounds. Receptions include an on-site event manager, in-house chef and wait staff, full catering, and access to the entire facility—Manor House, Atrium, Pavilion, Rear Deck, and grounds—with no facility fee for events of 100 or more guests. The same grounds and structures also host business meetings, corporate retreats, and holiday parties.

  Operating since 1745, the General Warren Inn is a historic tavern-turned-inn in Malvern, Pennsylvania, in the heart of Chester County's Great Valley. The property began as the "Sign of Admiral Vernon" and later took its current name in honor of Dr. Joseph Warren, a Revolutionary War figure killed at Bunker Hill; over the centuries it has served as a stagecoach stop on the Philadelphia and Lancaster Turnpike, a Seventh-Day worship gathering point, and a temperance hotel before its 1984 restoration brought back its 18th-century character. Today the inn combines eight guest suites with several distinct event settings, including a main dining room, the Warren Tavern, and the Spring House Terrace, a secluded outdoor space built around a 275-year-old springhouse.
