    Does anyone have a suggestions on a wedding reception site, that is not a hotel,  for 350-400 people?  We are looking in the Lancaster, Hershey or Harrisburg Area!

    I am struggling to find places that can fit a large amount of people.  And we are trying to steer clear of hotels so it's more of a unique venue...

    did you try googling Lancaster Wedding Venue

    I have the opposite problem as you. I need a Lancaster venue for a smaller wedding 50-60 people

    @Sulark: Did you want an indoor our outdoor venue? You should look into farms. They are such a classic symbol in Lancaster. If we got married around here it would have been something along those lines.

    Here are some beautiful locations:

    Lime Spring Farm which holds up to 400 people

    Cameron Estates which is an Inn/B&B but still lovely and not the normal hotel feel

    Lauxmont Farms which overlooks the river and has several different locations within the same site to choose from

    Drummore Estates which also overlooks the river and is simply beautiful

     

    @TheFutureMrsE: Have you looked into the Whealand Place? By brother had his reception at their Hamilton Ballroom which had between 150-200 guests but my neighbor also used the venue for their smaller wedding reception ~75 and it was the perfect size. There is also another location affiliated with them (I can't think of it right now but I'll try to find out for you) that is perfect for a smaller wedding.

    The Cork Factory Hotel is beautiful and really different for Lancaster PA!

    I'd highly suggest checking it out!

    Thanks for all the help Ladies! I've either evaluated and looked at all your suggestions! We decided to have our wedding at the Downtown Lancaster Marriott!  It was down to a choice between Lime Spring Farm and the Marriott Ballroom.   I know - the choices are like night and day!  We landed on Downtown Lancaster Marriott because by the time you add up all the add-ons to Lime Spring Farms Tent Wedding the prices are the same. And the weather risk is less with the Marriott. And the convenience of everything in once place with plenty of professional staff is a huge help!

    I appreciate everyone's input! And I hope I can return the favor :)
