Event Spaces at Riverdale Manor

• The Pavilion
Adjacent to the ballroom and garden terrace, the Pavilion is a stunning option for ceremonies, cocktail hour, or evening celebrations. Sparkling chandeliers and soft string lights create a romantic atmosphere, while the flexible design allows the space to be enclosed quickly for inclement weather or fully heated during cooler months. It’s a favorite for dancing, photo moments, and seamless indoor-outdoor transitions.

• The Ballroom
The heart of Riverdale Manor, the Ballroom features soaring white ceilings accented by three dramatic wrought-iron chandeliers. Reclaimed wood flooring and exposed beams add warmth and character, while surrounding French doors and oversized windows flood the space with natural light. The Ballroom accommodates up to 200 guests for a seated dinner and adapts beautifully to both formal and relaxed celebrations.

• The Farmhouse
The first sight upon arrival, the restored 1800s Farmhouse serves as a private retreat for the wedding party. It includes a dedicated bridal suite and groom’s room, along with charming parlor spaces ideal for getting ready, quiet moments, or a celebratory toast after the ceremony.

With its thoughtful layout, timeless architecture, and serene countryside setting, Riverdale Manor stands out as a Lancaster wedding venue that allows couples to celebrate in a way that feels natural, meaningful, and entirely their own.
