Wedding Photographers & Videographers at Hartman Center Wedding & Event Venue, Milroy

A wedding at the Hartman Center in Milroy can begin in a little country chapel or under tall pines. This campground venue in the mountains of central Pennsylvania has one of the widest choices of ceremony spots in the area, and couples get access to the grounds for wedding photos, so your photographer and videographer can move from forest to water to overlook in one afternoon.

For your wedding ceremony, the historic Hartman Chapel has antique benches, a wooden ceiling and landscaped gardens, the choice for a traditional indoor ceremony. Outdoors you can stand among the pine forest, at the Mountain Overlook with its wide panorama, or beside the Waterlily Pond. The Hideaway Pavilion, newly renovated, works for a smaller ceremony or reception, with a fire pit plus power and water, and the Northeast Lawn has room for a tent and a first dance under the stars.

Indoors, the reception hall seats up to 180 and has a full commercial kitchen; tables and chairs come with linens and dinnerware, along with setup and teardown. Your wedding reception menu is your call: bring your own caterer and bar service or use a preferred vendor, and choose your own officiant, flowers and entertainment. The bridal suite is a two-bedroom cabin with a full bath and kitchenette for getting ready, and guests can stay over in two-bedroom cabins or A-frames with private hot tubs, so nobody has to drive at the end of the wedding day. A dedicated event coordinator helps with planning.

A little about the Hartman Center

The property was left to a Milroy church in 1932 and spent many years as a church camp, closing after the 2019 season. Local owners bought the 150 acres in 2021 and reopened it as a campground and wedding venue, keeping the chapel.
