We had our reception at the Elmwood Park Zoo in April 2024 and it was the best venue we could have asked for. We’re both huge animal lovers and knew we needed a space to accommodate a very large family, so EPZ was a great fit. We worked with Becky for most of the process and received amazing service! The events team made sure everything was taken care of before, during, and after the reception. As for the guests, our families LOVED the zoo and so many of them made sure to tell us how much fun they had! Additionally, they were very LGBTQ friendly! If we had to do it all over again, we’d definitely pick EPZ over and over.

We had the most incredible experience hosting our wedding at the Carriage house! It has been taken over by Prime Hospitality catering who did an amazing job from start to finish! Our guests raved over the food, waitstaff, and bartenders! Katie and her team took care of every single aspect of our wedding which allowed my husband and I, our families, and our bridal party to be stress free and enjoy the day! I could go on and on about how amazing our wedding day was! Not a single thing went wrong, Katie and her team decorated the venue beautifully, the service was fantastic, and our guests continue to reach out about how beautiful the wedding venue was. It was better than I could’ve ever expected! I hope that the Carriage House starts to see an increase in weddings at their venue because they are truly amazing at their job! Katie coordinated and helped me with planning the wedding out from day 1. She worked relentlessly behind the scenes to ensure we had a great day. The food was the best wedding meal I have ever had and I’m not just saying that because I had my wedding here. The restaurant associated with the caterers “Brandywine Prime” makes amazing food. I will admit when initially wedding planning I was unsure of the carriage house due to the lack of online presence and photos of recent weddings. It is truly a hidden gem and definitely worth considering for your wedding day!!

The entire staff at Bear Creek made our day stress free and so special! They were so accommodating and made sure everything went so smoothly. Even with torrential rain, they transitioned everything indoors so seamlessly but our ceremony was still so beautiful and cozy. The price was a little higher than a DIY venue, but it includes amazing service and attention to detail, an event coordinator to keep things running smoothly, and extras. There were 3 weddings going on at our same wedding time and we wouldn’t have had any idea. Would definitely recommend!

After being in the Wedding & Special Events Industry in the Lehigh Valley and Beyond, Linda and I have been fortunate enough to work with the best of the best, both on a Professional level and in some of the most Amazing Wedding Venues around America. Throughout the years we have been blessed working with Terry Marrow at several awesome venues. No matter where we were or what the environment Terry always but on the best events. Every little detail was pre-thought and executed perfectly and as we all know sometimes things have not been relayed as they should have, but fear not, Terry would have it addressed and no one was every the wiser. One of the other special things about Terry is that she concerned about the other Professionals, to insure they have the space they need, convey the changes in last minute timing and in our case, the schedule allows for the very memorable images we will create – truly a team player! As for Shepard Hills Country Club, it is a beautiful venue. When we started out in our business we worked there often. It then went through some management changes, all for the better and it has been recently restored to its current splendor. It is not overstated yet stunning, with ample seating areas, spacious dance floor and refreshment area. On top oof that you have the Country Club grounds and outside casual areas, couple all that with an Outstanding Chef, banquet team and one of the Best Managers in and around the Lehigh Valley, what more could you ask for.

Bell Gate Farm 
Coopersburg, PA
  • Up to 185 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $40,000

Bell Gate Farm is the perfect backdrop for any kind of event. I have one rule, however, there will never be more than one event per day. I firmly believe that you cannot concentrate and give supreme customer service when there are multiple activities going on the same day. When you rent Bell Gate, you are getting every nook and cranny, and that allows us to play a little bit. We can have a cocktail hour at the pool, but move dinner to the barn, and it feels like you’ve changed venue’s completely. It’s one of our greatest assets to be able to give our clients a robust and fulfilling event experience.

  • Sophisticated wine experience
  • Allows pets
  • Has onsite accommodations
