The Armory Events

When transforming the historic Armory into the modern wedding venue it is today, every space was thoughtfully designed with the needs of the couple in mind. Our venue provides everything you need for a seamless and unforgettable wedding day—all in one location. With two getting-ready suites, two ceremony options, a dedicated cocktail hour space, and a stunning reception area, your entire event can flow effortlessly without the need to move between different venues. From the moment you arrive to the last dance of the night, everything takes place on-site, allowing you to focus on celebrating with your loved ones in a space that beautifully blends history with modern elegance.

  • Not wheelchair accessible

The in house team is incredible - Kasie, Kaitlin and Sarah were responsive to every question we had, providing recommendations and offering up any help needed to bring our vision to life. I love that they went above and beyond and sourced local whiskey for our specialty cocktail! Their enormous storage closet of wedding decor saved us a lot of money too. Everything will go smoothly with the Armory team at the helm - they have running events down to a science. The entire space is so beautiful that you do not need to spend on decor - it is industrial but still warm and inviting. The lighting is perfect, the sound system is flawless, and their pulley system of curtains makes for a seamless and beautiful transition between ceremony to cocktail hour to reception. The lofted getting ready suite is enormous which was a huge plus: we are an LGBT couple so we had 2 brides and 20 other people eating brunch and getting ready together and we all fit. I am an event planner as my day job so I have high standards and a *lot* of opinions when it comes to events, and there's not a single thing I would have changed or done differently!

Everything about our wedding at the Pump House was absolutely perfect. We found the Pump House after our original venue was affected by the the hurricane in Asheville, NC. We were rushing to find something that was available on our date, and hit on our non-negotiables: we wanted something where we could spend the day out in nature, have friends and family stay on the property with us, and have a relaxing day all in one location, with a beautiful ceremony site and reception room. As soon as we toured the venue, we knew we didn’t have to look anywhere else. One of the biggest things that sold us on the Pump House was how much the owners, Doug and Lisa, care about their land, the venue, and the weddings that were hosted there. Every space is decorated with Doug’s artwork, from paintings to the tiles in all the bathrooms, which is such a charming touch. They can tell you all about the history of the property and the different types of trees you’ll see as you explore the hiking trails. They’ll even tell you stories of past weddings and couples who have been through their doors as well. Throughout our tour and the whole planning process, we never felt like we were just another wedding or that they were just checking the boxes. On our wedding day, we woke up in our gorgeous accommodations to the relaxing sounds of birds and the river. We got to sit and have an incredible breakfast with our friends and family before getting ready (the breakfast. Omg. I’d book this venue for the breakfast itself). A group went for a hike and a dip in the river that morning too. I felt like we were surrounded by the most positive, magical energy all day as we took our photos in the forrest. We ended up moving our ceremony into the Brick Barn due to rain (fortunately that’s the only time throughout the day it rained, so our guests got to hang outside during the reception), but we ended up having the most intimate, beautiful ceremony in there, that we couldn’t even imagine doing differently now. Plus, the cats and chickens on the property were a big hit with us and the guests :) We’ve had so many people rave to us about how unique and beautiful the venue was. I’m so glad that we found the Pump House, and I’m sure we’ll be planning trips back in the future for anniversaries.

If you are looking for a venue that is going to take care of you and make sure your day is better than you could have imagined, use them! As a couple planning our wedding remotely from CO, they made it so easy. The communication from all of the staff was fantastic, and a special shout out to the coordinator, Aalea, who made the day truly come to life. Starting at our rehearsal dinner, she fully took over, and I had no concerns what so ever. She made sure my husband and I had a drink in our hand all night long - I didn't go to the bar myself once! It was the most beautiful night, the set up was beyond what I visioned. We cannot recommend The Booking House more.

The venue is absolutely beautiful. I have used it for several occasions. I love the simplicity so that you can turn the space into whatever your vision is. I lack creativity so having Taylor to talk to about ideas was so helpful. Taylor has a great eye for decor and event planning and is such an asset when you utilize her space. She is a great communicator and stays in touch while you plan so you can relax and enjoy your event.

My partner and I got married at Goggleworks in May of 2024 and we could not have asked for a better venue. Between the thoroughness of Margaret's communication, to the versatility of the venue itself, and all of the steps that go into making a wedding a breeze - they have it all. We wanted to have a slightly untraditional food situation at our wedding, bringing multiple restaurants together to have a mixed menu and this space accommodated that perfectly. With no required food vendor, you have the ability to get really creative in this space. And when I say that the staff were incredible to work with, I mean all of them! Margaret was fantastic with all pre-wedding planning. We were able to rent the spaces for the day before to load everything in and lighten our day-of wedding load. Margaret was there waiting for us at the loading dock, and there to close up when we left - she is the calming and helpful presence that you want on your wedding day. We were also able to leave our things in the space until the day after the wedding, making clean up much easier on us. In addition to Margaret, her team is stellar, the housekeeping staff are incredibly generous with their time, and the desk staff were there to point our guests everywhere they needed to go. All around a great organization to work with. If I were to do it over, I would choose Goggleworks every time!

Summer weddings typically utilize cooling stations and covered outdoor areas to help everyone stay comfortable during Pennsylvania's humid July afternoons. The season really shapes your experience.

What Should You Ask When Touring Pennsylvania Wedding Venues?

Ask about sound ordinance restrictions especially in historic districts where noise limitations might affect your party timeline. Find out if venues allow outside catering for cultural food requirements you might have. Check whether spaces have dedicated power supplies for entertainment equipment to avoid day-of surprises. Inquire about separate areas for cocktail hours during room transitions so guests aren't left waiting awkwardly. Also confirm whether venue staff assists with setup and breakdown of your personal decorations as policies vary widely between properties.
