Planning a wedding in the Poconos means choosing between grand mountain resorts and lakeside lodges, historic inns, barns and estates in the woods, golf clubs, and the churches of the mountain towns, all across Monroe, Pike and Carbon counties and the shores of Lake Wallenpaupack. This guide covers 84 wedding venues in 36 towns, from Stroudsburg and East Stroudsburg up to Mount Pocono, Skytop and Canadensis, east to Milford and the Delaware River, south to Jim Thorpe and Lehighton, and north to Hawley. You'll find churches, halls, resorts and inns, barns and farms, and the parks and scenic spots where couples go for their wedding photos and video.

Many couples here hold the whole weekend at one resort, with the ceremony, the pictures, the reception and the guest rooms on the same property. Others hold a church wedding ceremony in town and a reception at a lodge or barn that evening. Mountain roads are slow and winter weather can change plans, so check drive times between your ceremony and your reception and ask every venue about its bad-weather plan.

Use the filters to narrow the list by type of venue or by town. Each venue has its own page with a description, contact details and directions, and real wedding photos and videos from local photographers and videographers as they add their work.

Church wedding venues in the Poconos area

A church wedding ceremony is still a strong choice in the Poconos. Stroudsburg, Milford and Jim Thorpe have historic churches near their main streets, and Catholic parishes across the mountain towns add their own history. Many Catholic parishes ask you to get in touch well ahead and complete marriage preparation, and some ask that the bride or groom be a registered member, so call early and ask.

Banquet halls and event centers for your wedding reception

The Poconos' halls give a wedding reception a real sense of place. Couples choose the Armory in East Stroudsburg, the Mauch Chunk Ballroom in Jim Thorpe, the Boiler Room at the Hawley Silk Mill and event barns and halls across the region that handle dinner and dancing for large guest lists.

Barn, farm and winery wedding venues

For a country wedding, head into the woods and farmland around Milford, Hawley, Lehighton and the Monroe County hills. Barns, farms and estates host ceremonies on their grounds and receptions in restored barns, often with everything on one property and mountain views behind.

Hotel, club and resort wedding venues

Resorts, inns and lodges are what the Poconos are known for. Skytop Lodge, The Shawnee Inn, Woodloch, Mount Airy and the lakeside inns of Hawley handle the ceremony, reception and guest rooms in one place, and golf clubs across the region add fairway and mountain views.

Parks and gardens for your ceremony and wedding photos

Parks and scenic spots give your wedding photos room to breathe. Hickory Run State Park, the woods and gardens at Grey Towers, and Lacawac Sanctuary offer mountains, water and old stone. Many need a permit for ceremonies or group photos, and some allow portraits only, so check before you plan.

Next: find someone who has worked at your venue

Once you have a venue in mind, look for photographers and videographers who have already worked there. They'll know where the light falls in the church, how long the drive over the mountain really takes, and which spots on the grounds work best for wedding photos and video. Every venue page shows the local photographers and videographers with work from that place.
