Recently, we met with Colette Speakman, manager at Merion Tribute House.

We are kicking off our new 2017 Season with an amazing Open house at historic Ridgeland Mansion from 1-4 p.m. Sunday May 21st 2017. Come and Join Us!

We live in a special time when historic buildings are appreciated and preserved. They afford a glimpse into what life was like in a bygone era. Perhaps that’s why historic wedding venues are so popular.

Elements that dream weddings are made of --elegance, romance, and a majestic castle with sweeping views of the countryside. It sounds like a fairytale but historic castle wedding venues in the Philadelphia area truly exist.

Here at BMH, 2015 is the year of long distance couples. While we’re overjoyed that we’re meeting couples from around the world, we understand that planning a wedding from a distance can be difficult. Link over for some tips to remember if you’re planning your wedding from afar!

Just off of Belmont Plateau, a windy road brings you to a respite of land on historic mansion row in East Fairmount Park. It is dotted with beautiful stately structures from Belmont Mansion to Lemon Hill Mansion and the historic Fairmount houses of Mount Pleasant, Laurel Hill, and Smith Memorial Playhouse & Playground. The area is surrounded by rolling hills and remarkable cityscapes, especially at dusk and electrifying at night.
