With autumn coming to a close in just over a month, we’ve been savoring the sweetness of the season as much as possible — taking pictures of all the soon-to-fall foliage and embracing sweater weather for as long as we’re able. I actually spent this past weekend out in Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania, celebrating my niece’s 2nd birthday, and the drive out was seriously magical (all those red, orange, and yellow mountains covered in mist 🙌). It made me throw back to my childhood, skiing at Shawnee and living for the rustic charm of my surroundings. The Poconos have a very special place in my heart, and I couldn’t be more excited to put this rustic and oh-so-romantic venue on the radar of anyone exchanging vows in the near future. Memorytown is the perfect moniker for this hillside barn locale, especially if the red barn backdrop has always featured in your wedding dreams.

Memorytown is a rustic barn and outdoor venue located in beautiful Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania. The historic country property offers two gorgeous, fully-restored barns, beautiful event grounds, and much more for you and your wedding guests to enjoy. With a variety of spaces to choose from, incredible natural views, and delicious in-house catered food, Memorytown shines with accommodations for both indoor and outdoor ceremonies, receptions, after parties, and farewell fetes. Along with outstanding photo opportunities for the couple of honor, of course.

Mmhmm, there are lots of them.
The Heritage Barn is a beautiful setting that can accommodate over 300 people. The classic, red-painted silhouette is a standout photo backdrop, and on the inside, you’ll find towering wooden beams, perfect to wrap fairy lights around, a spacious dance floor, and a bar.

One other outdoor option for your wedding ceremony is The Kissing Bridge (an amazing first look locale or place for private post-ceremony captures) or The Woods Pond, a waterfront venue that offers a romantic fountain, sparkling pond waters, and an overall tranquil stomping grounds for your “I dos.”
For your cocktail hour and reception, you can choose from the Vintages Wine Cellar, outside of The Heritage Barn, and The Heritage Barn interior. The Vintages Wine Cellar is a beautiful, cozy space with wood beams on the wood-paneled ceiling and enchanting rustic decor.
And just as the wooden beams hold up these consummate ceremony outposts, Memorytown’s event staff confidently holds your hand(s) as you’re planning for your best day ever. From setup to cleanup, event rentals, lighting and sound support, bridal suite appointment and on-site accommodations for guests (the cabins and cottages are amazing!!!), the variety and breadth of event services is endless and exceptional.

“Honestly I cannot recommend Memorytown enough!!! We had our wedding there on 10/23/21 and Lori, the venue coordinator, is the most amazing human. She helped us with EVERYTHING from A to Z, and helped us make a ceremony location switch the day-of, due to rain. She made sure everything was fabulous and I cannot thank her enough. It seriously brings a tear to my eye the amount of effort she put into ensuring that our day was perfect. The event staff was fabulous. They helped escort people around the property with umbrellas to ensure everyone stayed dry. Our food tasted absolutely amazing. We had our rehearsal dinner at the Tavern which has recently undergone renovations and now looks amazing! We could not be happier with choosing Memorytown for our wedding. Trust me, you will be in the best hands!” ~ Nicole Z.
“We had the best day ever! We are so pleased with how everything turned out! We highly recommend Memorytown if you are looking for a rustic, barn wedding.” ~ Melissa S.
