    Set on the second-highest peak in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, Drumore Estate is a 66-acre private estate built in 1938 for newspaper magnate John F. Steinman and designed by architect Robert R. McGoodwin as a 16,000-square-foot Georgian mansion. The grounds include manicured lawns, formal gardens, woodlands, fountains, and pools, with views stretching across the Susquehanna River Valley — a setting couples often choose for both ceremony and portraits. The estate offers several event spaces to suit different celebrations. The formal garden serves as the setting most couples choose for their ceremony, with the Grand Tent, Carriage House, and Ballroom as climate-controlled or covered alternatives for a reception, dance floor, or backup ceremony space. The Grand Tent accommodates up to 400 guests and is typically available from mid-April through mid-November, while the Carriage House and Ballroom provide year-round, climate-controlled options for smaller weddings and events. A fully-furnished bridal suite and groom's lounge inside the mansion give the wedding party a place to prepare on the day of the event. Drumore Estate provides full-service, in-house catering along with an Event Planner/Facilitator and Event Manager who assist with menu selection, layout, and vendor coordination, and who handle setup and teardown. Couples receive exclusive use of the property on their wedding day. Since December 2025, the estate has been under the stewardship of Eric and Jerissa Warfel, who continue the tradition of hospitality established by the Steinman family and, later, by longtime owners Bill and Karyn Regitz.

    Old School Farm at Dyberry Wilds is a working farm and forest property along Dyberry Creek in the Upper Pocono Mountains of Honesdale, Pennsylvania. The land's roots as a farmstead reach back to a house built in 1925 by dairy farmers Friend and Carrie Walter, later moved up the hill in 1957 to escape the valley's flood zone; the property was renamed Old School Farm in 2001 and has continued under family stewardship since 2021. Today the farm hosts weddings, family reunions, and small group retreats for up to 130 guests in a relaxed, informal, outdoor setting. Events draw on the property's Amish-built timber frame barn, a dining pavilion with an adjacent party tent, the farmhouse's first floor for the wedding party, and a stage and fire pit for gathering. On Friday evenings from May through October, the farm fires its wood-fired earthen pizza oven for artisan pizza nights using ingredients grown on site.

    Pump House Weddings and B&B occupies an 85-acre property along Catawissa Creek in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, built around 1878 as a pumping station for the world's first long-distance underground oil pipeline. Owner Doug spent more than two decades restoring the original foremen's houses and industrial brick buildings, and the property is one of the few in the country where both the foremen's homes and the large brick pump buildings still remain; the restoration was featured on This Old House in 2004. Two reception spaces occupy the historic buildings. The Brick Building, once home to the steam pumps that pressurized the pipeline, offers soaring ceilings and warehouse-style windows with a dance floor, and seats up to 170 guests for dinners and celebrations. The Studio, filled with handmade stained glass and paintings by Doug, is a more intimate space for rehearsal dinners, brunches, or receptions of up to 50. Outdoor ceremonies take place across the wooded grounds, including a "chapel in the woods," forest glades, and creek-side sites along the Catawissa. The property includes on-site lodging for roughly 23 guests across cabins, tiny houses, and suites, along with homemade breakfast service and more than three miles of hiking trails.
