About Historic Rock Ford

A wedding at Historic Rock Ford in Lancaster puts you on 33 wooded acres inside Lancaster County Central Park, with a late-Georgian mansion and an old stone-walled barn to work with. For wedding photos and video, you can choose between two ceremony settings at the mansion: the sycamore tree at the front of the house, or the Piazza at the back. Both give your photographer the house itself as a backdrop, and the woods and leafy paths around it make quiet spots for portraits.

Your wedding day comes with the whole property, and the rental covers the weekend, with set-up from Friday morning, a Friday evening rehearsal on the grounds and clean-up until Sunday at noon. You can get ready in the climate-controlled Bridal Cottage, with a separate groom's room, or in the Katharine Suite on the third floor of the General Hand Mansion, which has salon chairs, makeup vanities, a kitchenette and its own restroom. Guests can even take historical tours of the mansion and the Snyder Gallery during your event.

Receptions take place in the tent and barn. The 18th-century barn has original hand-hewn beams, stone interior walls and handcrafted Colonial-style lanterns on dimmers, and it is heated and air conditioned. A concrete tent pad beside it holds a 40-by-60-foot tent that comes with the rental. You choose your own caterer and RAMP-certified bartender, and there is a separate catering area. The lantern light in the barn is lovely for the first dance on video, so ask your videographer to see it in the evening if you can. Booking here also supports the site's preservation and education work.

Contact the rental coordinator to check weekend availability.
Walk both wedding ceremony spots and the barn with your photographer at your ceremony time.
