About John Harris-Simon Cameron Mansion

Holding your wedding at the John Harris-Simon Cameron Mansion on South Front Street in Harrisburg feels like being invited into a grand old home for the evening. The first floor is rented for weddings, and its rooms are the draw: a grand parlor with double fireplaces, gilded chandeliers and mirrors brought back from Europe, plus a glass-enclosed solarium full of daylight. Those rooms, and the decorated staircase, give your photographer and videographer rich, warm settings for wedding photos without stepping outside.

You can hold your wedding ceremony in the parlor, where the society's own photos show couples standing before rows of guests, or on the porch, seated or standing. Then the same first floor becomes your wedding reception. The Cameron family's antique Steinway grand piano is available for your event, which makes live music for the processional a real option, and a sound your wedding videographer will be glad to record.

Plan for about 100 guests at a stand-up reception in the mansion, 90 for a served sit-down dinner using two rooms, or 60 for a buffet or when everyone sits in one room. The dining room, with antique furniture, family china and portraits, can be the serving area or a dining room, and the Butler's Walkway works for the cake table, hors d'oeuvres or a buffet line. You bring the caterer, and the society can suggest several in the area. Its staff helps with each step of your wedding day, and you can call to arrange a special showing while you plan.

  • Email or call the Historical Society of Dauphin County for pricing and availability.
  • Ask for a showing outside the regular tour hours if you're planning an event.
  • Ask about photo and video guidelines in the historic rooms.

A little about the John Harris-Simon Cameron Mansion

The house was home to John Harris, Jr., the founder of Harrisburg, and his sons from 1766 to 1835. Simon Cameron bought it in 1862-63 and turned the Georgian house into the Italianate Victorian mansion you see today, and it was given to the Historical Society of Dauphin County in 1941.
