Sophisticated, Eclectic Charm
Located in Doylestown, PA, Mercer Museum is a wedding venue that offers a one-of-a-kind event experience. It is also a seven-story history museum that showcases life in the United States during the 18th and 19th centuries. The designer and builder of the museum was Dr. Henry Chapman Mercer, who had the museum constructed to look like a castle. Completed in 1916, it provides a historical and memorable backdrop for wedding celebrations. Couples can begin their wedding celebrations with either a ceremony on the lush lawn or inside the art-filled Elkins Gallery. The Elkins Gallery features a Georgian style, with two fireplaces, a baby grand piano, and a collection of Bucks County paintings. This gallery is next to the museum and was designed by Philadelphia architect Horace Trumbauer. It is suitable for receptions as well. After the vows have been exchanged, guests can host an indoor reception with 80 guests. Dining and dancing can also take place outside in the clear-sided tent, with room for up to 180 people. From here, loved ones can gaze out at the castle, which is lit at night, to stand out brilliantly. Guests have access to the museum as well during the festivities. The Mercer Museum offers plenty of photo opportunities throughout the grounds. Numerous services are also provided to ensure that your occasion is a success. The team can provide tables, chairs, flatware, linens, glassware, china, cleanup, and more for your convenience. Catering and event planning services are offered as well, making it simple to bring your dream day to life.
