Our wedding at the Foundry was perfect. The space was so unique, elegant, and impressive. It had something for everyone - a great dance floor, amazing mezzanine, and quiet spaces inside and out for people to catch up. People raved about the food, and the great service made it even better. We loved the proximity to Bridge Street with all the cute spots for daytime exploring and night time celebrating.
Karen worked closely with us to make sure the day was everything we wanted. She was very organized and professional. Most importantly, we trusted her.
Everyone asked us how we found this venue. Several couples said if they weren't already married, they would have tried to have their wedding here. I am not someone who dreamt about my wedding, but even if I did, I could not have imagined a more perfect place to celebrate.

The Foundry, the staff, the facility and our planner (Karen) all met of exceeded my expectations. The facility highlights Phoenixville's roots while providing and elegant space for celebrating friends and family.

Thank you so much for allowing us to be part of your special day! We wish you a lifetime of happiness.
Gorgeous venue- so glad we chose to have our wedding here.
I love the combo of the outdoor stone look and inside modern ballroom.
The food was AMAZING- all of our guests were raving about it.
Wedding coordinator was very communicative throughout the whole process and did awesome with logistics on the big day.
Can actually say that nothing went wrong like everyone says to prepare for- was an amazing smooth day!

Thank you Jacob!! We enjoyed working with you both! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness!
Any questions?
My husband and I got married at the foundry on 6/1/24 and could not recommend this venue enough! Prior to the event Karen helped us with all of the questions we had and guided us through the process. On the wedding day, all of the staff was professional and helpful! I had multiple guests tell me that this is one of the best weddings they’ve attended and that the food was amazing. Thank you for helping our dream wedding come to life!!

Thank you so much Tory! It was an honor to help you create your dream wedding!
We had the best experience working with the Phoenixville Foundry (and Karen) for our March 2024 wedding. I absolutely fell in love with the beautiful, industrial modernism that this amazing building offers when we first toured the venue. You honestly won't find anything else like this venue, its so unique and has so much potential for your day. The picture potential is incredible and the details you get from this venue are so cool. The food experience was also top notch, the cocktail hour hors d'oeuvres and stations were so delicious and unique (we did the asian noodle and avocado stations) and the main entrees were just amazing. The white glove service was also something you don't see everywhere and something many people spoke about the days after the wedding.
Working with Karen, our coordinator, was an absolute pleasure. She was so supportive, flexible and helpful the months and days leading up to our wedding and I had not a care in the world on our actual wedding day, knowing she had everything under control and handled. We have received so many compliments on our wedding, on the venue itself and the service, we could not have asked for a better day. She truly allowed me to have the exact day I wanted, offering advise and direction but knowing at the end of the day it was our wedding and if she could accommodate our requests she would and did.
I would recommend this venue 100 times over!
My husband and I had our dream wedding here on 2/24/24. The venue, atmosphere, food, drinks, and staff were nothing short of amazing.
People are still RAVING about the food two weeks later!!! A lot of my parents friends called them and said it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding.
Not only that, but the romantic and unique look of the venue made for something so insanely special.
Everything was just perfect. I cannot recommend this place enough!

Thank you so much for this wonderful review, Sarah! It was our pleasure to be a part of your wedding and to make it memorable in every way we could! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness! Congratulations!
Karen at the Foundry helped to make our wedding day the most special day. From the beginning, Karen was very communicative and available via email or phone. She was helpful during planning meetings and answered any and all questions the myself and our families had during the process. On wedding day, the venue was wonderful. The food was delicious, our guests couldn’t stop raving about the various options we added on for cocktail hour. If you want a particular food station, don’t be afraid to ask! We wanted a pasta station, and J Scott Catering (the exclusive caterer of the venue) sent back and bunch of various options for us to choose from! The staff working on our wedding day were professional and kind. My husband and I had the best day at the Foundry.
Response from the Vendor on 10/06/2023
This makes us so happy to hear, Sierra! Thank you for this wonderful review. We wish you so much love and happiness.
Our wedding was the best night of our lives thanks to Karen and the J Scott Catering crew. The Foundry is a beautiful location to hold your reception. From our initial conversation, Karen was super attentive and detail orientated to all of our needs. She made the wedding process seamless and extremely stress-free. When my husband and I arrived at the venue after our off-site ceremony, every J Scott staff member congratulated us with a smile. They made sure that we were taken care of all night long as well as our parents and grandparents. We are still receiving compliments on how beautiful the venue is and how delicious the food was. If you want the wedding of your dreams, book it at the Foundry!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review. It was such a pleasure working with you and we wish you both all the best!
Amazing wedding venue!! If you’re considering it do it! My husband and I worked with Karen who supported us through all the steps leading up to the wedding! She was so easy to work with and the day of the wedding was right by our side to assist to make sure it run smoothly. Our guests cannot stop raving about how it was one of the best weddings they had been to from the beautiful venue to the delicious food! I cannot say enough great things about the foundry!

Thank you for the wonderful compliments. It was an honor to help make your day so special. We wish you a lifetime of love and happiness.
My husband and I recently got married and had our reception at the Phoenixville Foundry and it was absolutely perfect and a unforgettable day! Ellen, our coordinator was absolutely WONDERFUL to work with and made sure our day was perfect. Throughout the wedding night and weeks following we got so many compliments about the venue, the kindness of the staff and the outstanding food. It’s hard to keep this review short and sweet for how amazing Ellen did with creating a memorable day for my husband and I. The Phoenixville Foundry will always have a special place in our hearts and our day could not have gone any better. If you want a venue and a coordinator that will make your day perfect I would 100% recommend this venue, with indoor, outdoor and a fire pit option!

Thank you so much for allowing us to be part of your special day! We wish you both a lifetime of happiness.
My husband and I recently got married here and it will forever be unforgettable! Our guests are still talking about how lovely the venue was and how accommodating they were. Ellen is great to work with very responsive when you have a million questions to ask! She really focuses on making your big day special. The food is probably the best food I have had at a wedding! From the hors doeuvres to the entrees. Conveniently located in downtown Phoenixville our out of town guests had plenty to do before and after the wedding, Hotel was close by which was nice for everyone - all in all a weekend we will never forget!
Response from the Vendor on 01/13/2023
Wonderful Sam! So honored you chose Phoenixville Foundry for your wedding. Thank you for this amazing review! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness!
My Wife and I went to view the Foundry a year and a half ago and immediately fell in love with this Venue and looked no more. We got married on 10/1/2022 and If you are looking for an outdoor or indoor wedding please check this place out and I promise you will not be disappointed. At first we were a little scared after booking because we lost our wedding planner the beginning of this year but then our new wedding planner, Ellen Quinn, stepped in and OMG we could not have been more happy. She was there with us for every aspect of this wedding from linens, plate ware, you name it she was on top of it and took notes in detail. She was even there on our actual wedding day to make sure that there was no issues or mistakes and we could honestly not have thanked her enough.
The Venue itself is absolutely amazing, there were light color changes through out the night which was so awesome! They had our initials displayed in lights on the dance floor as we were introduced and during our first dance which was really cool. The food was absolutely amazing and we had so many appetizer options for our guest to choose from during cocktail hour as we have 3 stationary tables and 8 different passed hors d'oeuvre which were so delicious. They hide your tables for dinner behind a wall until it is time for dinner so the guest have no idea it is there until the walls open up to reveal the dining room which was very cool as well. We added a Smores bar which we highly recommend to everyone as that was absolutely amazing. The best part is that Ellen had worked with all of our vendors before and you could tell as they were all in sync and worked very well together. The only down side which was not the Foundry's fault at all but we were suppose to have an outdoor wedding under their Pagoda outside but it rained that day and we had to pull the plug and move indoors hours before the wedding. But like I said this place was so amazing being inside or outside was no big deal because of how beautiful this place is. My wife and I could not thank Ellen and the rest of the staff enough. You are missing out if you over look this place!

Stephen, we can not thank you enough for this incredibly thoughtful and detailed review. It was such an honor to be a part of your wedding. Wishing you all the best!
We truly could not be happier that we chose the Phoenixville Foundry for our wedding venue, they met and exceeded all of our expectations! We got married on 10/14 and I cannot say enough great things about the venue and J Scott staff. Ellen was our planner leading up to, and day of the wedding. She did a wonderful job at keeping us on track with our planning, as well as making sure both the rehearsal and wedding day went off without a hitch. Paul was absolutely amazing the day of to make sure the groom and I always had a fresh drink, and that we were enjoying the food. Speaking of food, we had so many guests tell us that was some of the best food they've ever had. The Lo Mein bar was a HUGE hit, we are still hearing about it almost a month later! The bartenders and servers were absolutely amazing, there was never a long line at any of the bars between both cocktail hour and the reception. If I could do all over again I wouldn't change one thing.

Erin, thank you so much for sharing your experience in this amazing review! It is greatly appreciated and we thank you for trusting us with your wedding. Thank you for the wonderful review! We're honored to have been a part of your special day....
Wishing you both a lifetime of love and happiness.
My husband and I got married at the foundry on 8/26/22 and there aren’t enough words to describe how wonderful our experience was. Karen was our coordinator and she was beyond exceptional at her job. She was helpful and responsive throughout the entire planning process and the day of the wedding. Our day could’ve never been what it was if it wasn’t for her. Paul was our supervisor on the day of the wedding and let’s talk about someone who excels at his job! He was an absolute pleasure and made sure our beds were being met the entire day. The food was AMAZING. Dinners and cocktail hours were delicious and the raw bar and avocado bar were a hit! The venue itself is stunning and doesn’t require a lot of florals or decorations. We are so glad we picked the foundry for our special day! We would highly recommend!!

Lindsay, we can not thank you enough for this incredibly thoughtful and detailed review. It was such an honor to be a part of your wedding. Wishing you all the best!
We recently got married at the Foundry on 8.20.22 where we had both our ceremony and reception. It was the perfect day! Our coordinator Karen was amazing to work with from the start. She was very responsive, organized, and attentive. Paul was our supervisor for the day and was quick to address any of our needs. The Foundry team will exceed your expectations as they truly care about making your day special. Our guests raved about how beautiful the venue was and loved the cocktail hour space. The food was outstanding. I cannot say enough good things about the Foundry and it’s team!
Response from the Vendor on 10/03/2022
It was a beautiful ceremony and reception. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of it and for the wonderful review! Best wishes to you both.
My husband and I got married here July 2022. We had the most amazing time you could ask for! The staff at the Foundry were so helpful and accommodating. The venue was so beautiful and my guests could not stop raving about the food! There was not one thing I would change about our day!
Response from the Vendor on 10/03/2022
Wow! Thank you for the wonderful compliments. It was an honor to help make your day so special. We wish you a lifetime of love and happiness.
We had **the most amazing wedding day** at the Foundry. Ellen was our coordinator and did a phenomenal job walking us through the wedding planning process. I can't think of a more perfect person for the job--she is calm, organized, so kind and cheerful, and was on top of everything we needed to make our day go smoothly. We had a lot of last minute changes due to the weather and Ellen took care of everything for us. Booking with the Foundry gave us the peace of mind of having everything in one place and knowing that if anything happened the day of, it would be taken care of so we could enjoy the day-- and enjoy we did!! It was the best day of both of our lives and we had so much fun. The food was incredible--I have friends still talking about how it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding. Definitely choose the avocado bar--it was a hit!! Our timeline went so smoothly (thanks to Ellen) that we were actually able to enjoy our dinner and sit down with everyone! I don't remember the name of the man in charge of the staff but he was so kind and always made sure I had water, which I really appreciated with a full night of dancing and fun. The smores stations were a hit, especially for those not fond of dancing who could still have something to do as othes danced. Everywhere I looked, people were smiling and having fun. We really felt taken care of at the Foundry and highly recommend it to anyone.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us here! It was truly a pleasure working with you on your special day and we are so glad we could make it perfect for you! We wish you all the happiness and congratulations once again!
We had the best wedding day we could have imagined at the Phoenixville Foundry. The venue is stunning and can comfortably fit weddings of all sizes (ours had 237 guests and we had more than enough space). The cocktail hour and dinner food was excellent and the dance floor was packed all night. Everything ran so smoothly throughout the whole day/night, and our wedding planner, Karen, was amazing to work with from start to finish. Highly recommend!

David, thank you so much for sharing your experience in this amazing review! It is greatly appreciated and we thank you for trusting us with your wedding. Wishing you all the best!
We loved the Foundry immediately upon seeing it and wasted no time in booking the venue for our January wedding. We are so glad we did! The Foundry is absolutely beautiful, and is really a one of a kind wedding venue (we got tons of compliments!). On top of that, the flow of the ceremony/cocktail hour/reception couldn’t have been better.
What really made the Foundry all worth it, though, was our amazing coordinator Karen. Karen worked with us beginning with the wedding tasting and through even the days after our wedding to ensure everything was perfect. She worked around our schedule and accommodated tons of meetings. She was truly essential to our planning process, making time to meet with us to pick out table linens, set a menu, run through the ceremony, schedule an off-site rehearsal, and meet us after the wedding weekend to pick up all of our leftover belongings. Karen made us feel like she wasn’t just doing a job, but that she was genuinely excited to help us make our wedding day spectacular. She went above and beyond what would be considered part of the job, helping me with my bustle, making sure the decorations were laid out precisely as we envisioned, and working with us to accommodate catering requests that weren’t even on the menu.
J. Scott Catering was also wonderful and the food was delicious! Guests seemed to love the avocado bar and the filet was cooked perfectly. (My husband and I both thought the food at the wedding was even better than it was at the tasting, and we got reviews from guests that the food far exceeded their expectations).
Finally, I highly recommend working with Jim Batty, who was key to making all of our decorations pop. He was the Foundry’s in house lighting and tech expert, whose finishing touches to our centerpieces and our aisle really brought our vision to life.

Lindsey, we can not thank you enough for this incredibly thoughtful and detailed review. It was such an honor to cater/host/be a part of your wedding. Wishing you all the best.
I cannot say enough great things about this beautiful venue. Beautiful open space with historical/industrial touches, everyone absolutely loved the aesthetic of the venue. And I can't forget to mention the gorgeous chandeliers!!! Working with Cathy from J. Scott made our experience even better.

Thank you for the wonderful compliments. It was an honor to help make your day so special. We wish you a lifetime of love and happiness.
We just had the most amazing wedding reception for my daughter at the Phoenixville Foundry with Queen of Hearts Catering providing the food and services. Unfortunately due to COVID, we had been planning this wedding reception for almost 3 years but it was so much worth the wait, it exceeded all of our expectations and was a night that no one will forget!!! The Foundry was beautiful and spacious, we can’t wait to see the pictures from the reception. Our guests gave rave reviews for all of the delicious food and great service they received, many commenting it was the best wedding food they had ever had. Ariane, Caitlin, and Ellen could not have been easier to work with and also very professional. We also had a few special requests and they fulfilled every single one of them with ease, making sure our special day was awesome in every way!!! Everything was so organized and we didn’t have to worry about a thing during the celebration, we could focus on our daughter, her husband, our guests and enjoy every single moment!!! We would highly recommend both the Phoenixville Foundry and Queen of Hearts Catering for any event!!!
Response from the Vendor on 06/28/2022
Thank you for the kind words, Holly! It's our honor to not only be a part of your daughter's special day but to help through this difficult and uncertain time.
The Foundry was the absolute best venue for our wedding day! After searching for months, I was so happy my husband and I decided on it! Everyone was so professional and the communication was great from the start! Cathy and Jess were so amazing the day of and made sure we had everything we needed! They knew exactly what we were drinking, and always made sure we had a fresh drink in our hands! They also made sure we had food in our suite after taking some time to ourselves after our ceremony. The staff was incredible and my guests are still telling me how amazing things were the day of! From the beginning to the end, everything was perfect! I cannot thank the entire staff enough for helping bring my vision to life!

Our coordinator Charolette made our wedding day seamless and stress free! The venue (Phoenixville Foundry) was absolutely everything we dreamed of in a venue and more. Our guests are still raving about the delicious food months later!! Would highly recommend for a wedding or event!
Response from the Vendor on 06/28/2022
Thank you so much for the review, Margaret! And we're so pleased to hear your day ran smoothly. Wishing you all the best!
The Phoenixville Foundry was the perfect event space for our big day! We loved that it was such a large facility that had so many different spaces to utilize for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. And the food/service provided by Queen of Hearts catering was fantastic.
Ariane was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the entire planning process, and while we had a lot of turnover for our wedding coordinators due to COVID, ultimately working with Caitlin on our big day was such a delight. She was so nice and considerate and helped bring all of the little planning details come to life!
Thank you Ariane, Caitlin, and the QOH catering team for helping us celebrate our big day at The Foundry!
Response from the Vendor on 07/02/2021
We are happy that you were able to capitalize on the versatility of the venue. We're also glad to hear you had such a pleasant time with Ariane and Caitlin. Your wedding was truly memorable.
Beautiful venue inside and out! My family raved about the man in charge of setting everything up because he was SO accommodating. The venue itself is simply amazing. It’s so clean and well kept, the grounds always look perfect, and it’s just a very unique, gorgeous space and wedding setup. We could not have picked a better venue!

Thank you so much, Lauren! It's truly our pleasure to work with you on your special day!
Amazing venue! With the COVID-19 pandemic, they were flexible with changing our plans to outside and were able to rent us a tent. It was a beautiful evening! Worth it!
Response from the Vendor on 09/01/2020
Thank you so much Alex! It was such an honor to be able to host your wedding!
During the Covid 19 Pandemic we were questioning our options in reference to our daughter's wedding. With the guidance and assistance of Scott, Rachel and Ariane we were able to set an alternate date. They all went out of their way to understand the circumstances we were experiencing. They truly care and want to make our daughter's wedding an extremely memorable event. I have a sense of peace knowing I have Scott and his team there for us.
Response from the Vendor on 05/11/2020
Joseph, thank you so much for the positive review. We genuinely appreciate it and we're honored to be a part of your daughters wedding.
We cannot wait to get married at the foundry!!! There really is no place like it and can’t picture getting married anywhere else. Due to the corona virus we had to postpone our end of May wedding to next year. The Foundry has been so attentive and helpful throughout this difficult process. Ariane and Scott have gone above and beyond in helping us find a date and rescheduling!!!! We can’t wait to finally celebrate at the foundry and continue to work with this great place!
Response from the Vendor on 05/11/2020
Thank you, Emily! We appreciate your wonderful review and we're looking forward to your May 2021 wedding!
With the fluid circumstances around the Covid-19 health crisis, we were unsure about where our wedding stood. After having many conversations with Ariane, she worked tirelessly to find an option that both sides agreed with. Ariane really went above and beyond, listened and took our concerns to heart. She continued to work with us through all the changes until everything was comfortable for us. I am thankful to have someone like Ariane be a part of our big day and she continues to affirm that we made the right decision when selecting this venue! Thank you Ariane we appreciate everything you did to make sure our wedding will be a great day!!!

Thank you for the kind words, Michelle! It's our honor to not only be a part of your special day but to help through this difficult and uncertain time. We're looking forward to your wedding!
My husband and I got married at the Phoenixville Foundry on February 21st and it was truly a dream! Our coordinator with J.Scott Catering, Rachel, was a delight from start to finish, guiding us every step of the way. She told us that on my wedding day that we would enter as guests and leave as guests, and wouldn’t have to worry about anything that day and she was 100% right, that’s exactly how I felt. I had lots of ideas that I wanted to incorporate into the ceremony and reception and Rachel helped me organize and get me prices from her suppliers very quickly. She was incredibly responsive and helped me keep on track during the planning process. But in the weeks leading up to the wedding she sent detailed time lines and floor plans for me to review and modify as I wanted. The venue and the caterer were both very flexible. On the day of, Rachel and her assistant Charlotte were there to make sure everything was set up, that the ceremony and reception ran smoothly, and that my husband and I had everything we needed!
The whole experience with J.Scott catering was fabulous. Rachel invited us to an open house a few weeks before our food tasting so we had an opportunity to taste a few more items than we would have at our tasting. The menu of appetizer and entrée choices is quite extensive and it was hard to make our final choices – but everything was fantastic. Our guests particularly raved about the cheese board appetizers. The only small issue was that we only provided champagne for the toasts for our parents tables and the champagne was missing from one of the tables, but I was able to alert a sever and the staff very quickly and discreetly provided champagne to the correct table.
I think the thing that speaks the most about our experience with Rachel & J.Scott at the Foundry was my dad, who was skeptical that a day-of coordinator was necessary, said “Thanks goodness for Rachel! We couldn’t have done this without her.” So thank you, Rachel, for making the day perfect for us and for my parents!

Laura - we can not thank you enough for this incredibly thoughtful and detailed review. It was such an honor to host your wedding. Wishing you all the best.
"WOW" - Something I heard so much of throughout the night of my wedding at the Foundry in December of 2019. That's just what the venue did - it wowed everyone - from the elegance, catering, service, etc! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was impeccable. The sheer beauty of the venue itself is sure to drop jaws & have people reminiscing for years to come. Hosting cocktail hour up on the mezzanine was a real treat for our guests as they could look down below & see the beautiful ballroom setup. The ballroom seated 240 guests very comfortably and still left the entire dance floor wide open. As an out-of-town bride, I was a little nervous going into the planning process. However, Rachel washed all of my worries away month after month and made everything SO easy. Which kept me calm yet made me that much more excited for wedding day! She was such a joy to work with & truly did an AMAZING job! I highly recommend this venue!

Ashley, we can't thank you enough for this incredible review and for choosing us to host your wedding! We'll pass along your amazing feedback to the rest of our team!
From start to finish, The Foundry made our wedding an unforgettable memory for all of our family and friends. We knew from the moment we toured the venue, we wanted our wedding there! The building is a historical work of art inside and out. The remaining components of the old iron mill are tastefully incorporated into the venue. The space needed very little decorative addition as it combines a modern rustic feel with a touch of industry. We also appreciated our wedding would be the only event of the day to avoid any confusion with another party/wedding which made the day even more personal.
Of the catering choices, We selected J Scott Catering and we were not disappointed by the food selection. Our wedding cake was also included. We chose Masters Baker in West Chester who made us the most amazing wedding fancy and fun cake! One note, you are responsible for providing liquor, but the venue provides a vendor list for direction/guidance. We did use the recommended distributor and courier service which was convenient and also gave us the option to receive a refund wth return any unopened liquor.
Our wedding coordinator, Rachel, was with us every step of the way and kept us on track in spite of our busy work schedules. From the initial planning to food tasting to the final day, Rachel made sure every detail we were looking for was met. My husband and I had surprises for our guests and she was sure to facilitate each one, from the ordained Elvis at the ceremony to a 75th Birthday cake for my father and a wedding cake on a spinner, she made it all happen!
Our ceremony was held on-site outdoors and easily accommodated our guests comfortably. We liked the versatility to move the ceremony inside if the weather did not permit. The flow of the ceremony, to cocktail hour and later reception, was seeming less. The Foundry also provided a dedicated wait staff for my husband and me which was completely unexpected and a nice surprise! They made sure we drank and enjoyed hor d oeuvres and our dinner though all the events of the evening. The outdoor ceremony space was later replaced with firepits for the guests to enjoy.
We cannot say enough about the Foundry team and we are so grateful for how personalized our event felt. The only issue we had was some of the florist's table numbers and decorations were missing at the end of the evening and not recovered. Otherwise, our day could not have been any more perfect!

Tifane - thank you so much for sharing your experience in this amazing review! It is greatly appreciated and we thank you for trusting us with your wedding. Wishing you all the best!
The Pheonixville Foundry hosted our wedding in January 2019 an the venue exceeded our expectations in every way. The venue is breathtaking and perfect for a Fall or Winter venue. The flow of the night , from first look photos, to the reception and everything in between was smooth and flawless. I had been working with a wedding planner who worked at the Foundry and she brought to life all my visions . Every employee was friendly and professional . I would ( and have) recommend this venue to everyone !

Thank you so much for the review, Kaitlyn! And we're so pleased to hear your day ran smoothly. Wishing you all the best!
My husband and I got married here last month and it was such a dream! The place looks absolutely stunning for weddings and makes for insane pictures. Rachel was such a huge help leading up to and the day of, she made the wedding day run so smoothly! If you’re engaged and looking for a venue, once you visit the Foundry nothing will compare I guarantee you that!

Thank you so much for the review, Amanda! And we're so pleased to hear your day ran smoothly. Wishing you all the best!
Finding the right wedding venue can be an extremely stressful experience. When my husband and I left the Foundry after our very first tour, we knew it was the perfect place for us. The venue is absolutely beautiful, both inside and outside, and Ariane was absolutely amazing. The planners handled everything for us and took care of more than they should have. I did not think the planning process could go so smoothly and be so easy, but it did - and it was! We had our ceremony there as well, outside on the brick patio. It was beautiful! We had an indoor option as well in case it rained which was reassuring. We also enjoyed having the separate bride and grooms’ suites - having a place for the bridal parties to hang out, relax and unwind before the ceremony made the day that much better. The museum was also a nice addition; our family LOVED hanging out in there throughout the night, looking around and conversing about the history behind the building. I cannot say enough about our experience at the foundry. It was such an easy and amazing process!

Tory,
We could not be happier to hear that you had a stress free wedding experience! Thank you for trusting us with your special day and we wish you all the best.
My wedding was a dream come true! This place gives you chills. Every single guest complimented me many times on how insanely beautiful and breathtaking this venue is! Working with Rachel was a pleasure. Her attention to detail is top notch. The food from Queen of Hearts was equally as amazing! Can not say enough great things. O B S E S S E D !

THANK YOU! Thank you for this incredible review. Our goal is to make our couples' wedding dreams come true and we're so happy we could do that for you! Wishing you all the best!
J.Scott catering was great and our wedding at the foundry was amazing and everything I dreamed it would be! I had guests calling my parents days after the wedding raving about the food and the service. Everything was perfect.

Thank you for the review, Ashley! It was our pleasure to be a part of your special day!
The Phoenixville Foundry was the best possible choice for our wedding! We did not have to spend money on decorations because the building is beautiful as it is. All of our guests enjoyed exploring the museum and soaking in the atmosphere. Rachel and her team were wonderful and made sure everything ran smoothly and looked perfect. Everyone was so helpful and so easy to work with that we would highly recommend this venue to anyone in the Greater Philadelphia area.

Thank you for the review. It was our pleasure to work with you, Liz! Congratulations!
My husband and I had the best time and Ariane is the absolute best to work with! Our wedding was two months ago and I keep hearing how great our food and venue were. My advice - GET THE CHEESECAKE BAR it is definitely worth it!

Thank you so much for the review, Kelsey! And we're so pleased to hear your day ran smoothly. Wishing you all the best!
My husband and I could not recommend the Phoenixville Foundry more. The space is elegant but not ostentatious. It's plenty spacious (our wedding had 230 guests), and the catering (J. Scott Catering) is excellent. Jaime and I had both our ceremony as well at the reception on site. With a good florist (we will review the wonderful Jessa Sommerfield of Sommerfield Designs separately), the Foundry provides a gorgeous ceremonial space. Our coordinators - Ariane Graham and Tessa Narins - were supremely organized and efficient. They also replied to all questions and concerns timely and courteously. Furthermore, the Foundry features tons of excellent indoor and outdoor photographic vantage points. Among my favorites is the upper level, where you can capture the stunning cylindrical crystalline light fixtures in the backdrop. Lastly, the Foundry’s list of recommended vendors is as top notch as the venue itself. Jaime and I had no idea where to begin with booking the endless vendors one needs for a wedding. The Foundry gave us a list of vendors who have worked there tons of times before and were familiar with the space. We wound up booking our cake baker, photographer, videographer and florist from that list. Do yourself a favor and book this place!

My husband and I couldn’t have chosen a better venue for our wedding! Ariana and everyone at the Foundry made our day so special and personal that it really felt like we were their only client. Our guests were wowed by the venue and it was the perfect backdrop for our special day! Would highly recommend over and over.

Jennifer, You both deserved a truly perfect day and we're happy we could have been a part of that! Thank you for this incredible review and for choosing to host/cater your wedding with us!
Just booked my wedding at the Foundry and the experience thus far has been great. Ariane and Megan are a great team and actually made the tour and contract process pleasurable. I look forward to working with them throughout the rest of the process!

Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure working with you on your special day and we are so glad we could make it perfect for you!
We hosted my daughter's wedding reception at the Foundry on 11/24/17. The venue itself is stunning and there are so many things that make it special -- multiple/beautiful picture spots, portions of the original foundry that add so much character to the space and lighting that brings out the beauty of the venue at night. We worked primarily with Caroline and she was extremely helpful especially in the days leading up to the wedding. The coordination between the Foundry and J Scott Catering was outstanding. We were truly able to enjoy the event with both the Foundry and J Scott team handling everything!! I would strongly recommend the Foundry for a wedding.

I don't even know where to begin because everything about my wedding day was PERFECT and I still feel like I am on cloud 9. Alicia, Jessica and Alia did an AMAZING job making the day truly unforgettable. The ceremony was absolutely beautiful outside in the sculpture garden with music by Harp and Soul, LLC. The food at cocktail hour and the reception was out of this world, which was catered by J. Scott Catering. Many guests at the wedding raved about how great the appetizers and entrees were. The west ballroom was stunning with beautiful flowers from Willow and Thistle. The dance floor was packed the entire night with music provided by the ChatterBand. All in all, it was such an amazing and beautiful day! The team at the Foundry was great to work with and the venue looked phenomenal during our wedding day. Many, many thanks!!! - Mr.& Mrs.Ames

I was lucky enough to be a guest at this beautiful venue this past weekend. Loved the industrial feel of the space, what a great place for a wedding. Food was awesome, as well, everything felt top-notch, I loved the table side service. The plates were beautiful and both my husbands and my filet were cooked perfectly. Everyone at our table was raving about the food.
This is a great venue if you are looking for something unique and not your typical cookie-cutter banquet hall.

Thank you for the review. It was our pleasure to work with you, Anne!
We had a beautiful wedding reception for our daughter, Christine and her new husband, Nick on Saturday. We were blessed to be able to give them the wedding that they asked for, from the choice of the Foundry because they fell in love with the space, to the candy bar finale with all their favorites as favors. The Foundry's staff were helpful and welcoming from the beginning of the planning process. Alia and Jessica were our planners for the day, and made sure everything went smoothly, checking with us throughout the event for anything we needed, especially for the bride and groom's Sweetheart Table. J. Scott Catering provided the food, and it was just as we planned with Alicia Colosi over months of emails and phone calls. She was always patient with our questions and changes. I had several of each appetizer during cocktail time. My personal favorite, the Scallops with Bacon, and others commented on them as well. Cocktail music was a jazz trio headed up by Christine's friend, Alex Posmontier. Thanks for "Take Five." Christine danced with her father to a mashup of Billy Joel and Stevie Wonder-- can't wait to replay the video of that! The majority of guests chose the Filet, including us, and one friend said it was the best Filet she ever had! I loved that the Asparagras Bundles were crisp-tender, not overcooked and soggy. The Chicken Marsala and Vegetable Risotto were also well received. The Sundae Bar that complemented the Wedding Cake was a definite hit! The DJ, Stephen Croce, kept the dance floor going after dinner, with a list curated by the bride and groom. Maybe a little more Sinatra for the oldsters next time. All in all, a beautiful day, a beautiful couple, and a beautiful gathering of family and friends. Thank you to everyone who made the party possible.

Thank you for your kind words and wonderful review! It was such a pleasure working with all of you to plan the wedding you envisioned for Christine and Nick! We wish them all of our best as Mr. and Mrs. and cannot wait to see the photos a...
nd share them on our website. Thank you for selecting the Foundry for their wedding. It was an honor to host their BIG DAY!
Our sincerest gratitude!
AMAZING! What a beautiful and romantic venue! Our special day was made perfect by the team at the Foundry. We had been looking for a classic and elegant yet a bit unique spot and this is exactly what we got. Our guests were wowed by the setting that this venue provided! Alia was extremely helpful from start to finish, making sure all the details were in check. I would recommend this location to any couple looking for a beautiful, unique and romantic spot for their special day.

Thank you for the review. It was our pleasure to work with you, Stephanie!
Just take one step into the Phoenixville Foundry and you will look no further. The venue itself it absolutely beautiful, with huge vaulted ceilings and original pieces from the old steel mill. My fiance and I wanted a a unique venue that wasn't the typical ballroom, and the Foundry was the perfect place. Both Caroline and Alia were a pleasure to work with, scheduling walk-thrus/phone calls and exchanging several emails to ensure nothing was missed. Caroline and Alia worked seamlessly with our vendors, including the caterer and the band, to ensure everything went smooth. The dance floor is huge, so none of our 225+ guests ever felt cramped. Also, the Foundry has an elevated 2nd floor for cocktail hour which provided incredible vantage points of the whole venue (and made for some awesome photos). Although we had an indoor ceremony, the grounds of the venue are also amazing for photos (there is a beautiful bridge right behind the venue). All-in-all this was a perfect wedding venue...it is huge, unique, beautiful, and has an A+ professional staff. A huge thank you to Caroline and Alia for helping to make our special day so memorable. Highly Recommend!

Thank you for the review. It was our pleasure to work with you, Jordan!
We recently had our wedding at the Phoenixville Foundry in September and it was a complete DREAM! Where do I even start it was so amazing ?!?! Alia and Caroline were the most AMAZING people to work with, they were so sweet, friendly and professional and always had everything taken care of. I always loved coming to visit, they treated us like family! The venue is absolutely beautiful and I LOVED how I was able to make it display my personalty. I still have people saying how cool of a venue it was! I walked into that venue the day of my wedding and had tears of joy, it was like walking into more than a dream! It was everything and more than I ever expected. The food was unbelievable , everyone enjoyed their meals. I would without a doubt have another event at the Phoenixville Foundry , it was the best experience and everyone and everything was top of the notch perfect !!! You will not be disappointed !

Christa, thank you so much for sharing your experience in this amazing review! It is greatly appreciated and we thank you for trusting us with your wedding.
I want to send a huge thank you to Alia, Carolyn and the rest of the Phoenixville Foundry crew for making my wedding everything I dreamed it would be! Alia, you were absolutely amazing! You were right on top of every question I had along the way and made planning a wedding such a breeze! The weather wasn't beautiful but you made it work perfect incase the sun wanted to shine. We thank you for making sure everything went smoothly on our special day. I couldn't be happier with how beautiful and perfect everything was. Thanks a million - The new Mr. & Mrs. Joseph Ward <3

You are so very welcome! It was our pleasure working with you and making sure you had the perfect day- even if mother nature didn't cooperate. It was still a beautiful day with our beautiful couple! Congratulations once again!
The Phoenixville Foundry was the perfect place for our wedding! Dave and I absolutely fell in love with the venue from the moment we got out of the car and it was all over once we walked in the front door. The grounds outside are beautiful giving you endless options for stunning photos. We wanted a venue where we could have the ceremony on site and the sculpture garden out front was perfect. The ceremony photos are gorgeous!
Inside you'll be wowed by the 60 foot ceilings and beautiful chandeliers. They maintained the historical charm of the steel mill while updating to a modern event space. The balance between industrial and modern was perfect for us!
The venue staff are amazing! They were on top of every detail and ensured all vendors were on point with timing and coordination making the day of run smoothly with nothing for the bride and groom to worry about. They were fantastic!
I never envisioned myself having a big wedding with all of the glam and production of a big day. I am so glad my now husband convinced me to do it up right! We had an amazing day, beautiful pictures, and we are both so happy we decided to have our wedding at the Foundry! You only do it once so do it right!

Thank you!
Wow! What an amazing venue! My husband and I have been to our fair share of weddings and we were looking for a venue that would capture our classic taste but give our wedding a bit of a unique flair. The foundry was the perfect choice! Our guests are still raving about how absolutely stunning this venue is! Caroline and Alia are also phenomenal. They helped us turn a blank slate into the masterpiece that I always dreamed about for my wedding day! I cannot thank them enough. If you are getting married in the Philadelphia area and looking for an extraordinary venue, definitely check this place out.

Thank you again for sharing this special evening with us!
We absolutely loved using this venue for our wedding! It is absolutely stunning in all of our pictures and even more in person. We love the historical elements also! Alia was very helpful, patient, and was an essential part of making everything perfect!! If we ever need a venue for a larger event this is the only one I would consider.
Response from the Vendor on 06/28/2022
Thank you again for sharing this special evening with us.
My husband and I were engaged in July 2013 and wanted to get married that January. We had six months to plan a large wedding to accommodate my large family. Thankfully we discovered the Foundry.
Because it was winter we were worried about guests traveling from the wedding site to the reception. The Foundry has a large space that could be adjusted for our event. It felt almost as though we had a separate venue for the wedding and the reception even though it was all at the Foundry.
Perhaps the greatest boon was their list of preferred vendors. Instead of having to sort through the thousands of wedding vendors in the Philadelphia area I had a list of five or six excellent options for everything from caterers to wedding bands/DJs. If there's someone you want to use that isn't on their list the vendor just has to get insurance.
Our wedding turned out beautifully. The space is so unique, and it fit with my traditional taste and my husband's modern taste. I would highly recommend the Foundry.
If you want to save money check out their discount options. We were able to save a lot by choosing to have a Sunday wedding in the winter. It was over a long weekend though, so most of our guests didn't have to work the next day.

Katie, we can not thank you enough for this incredibly thoughtful and detailed review. It was such an honor to cater/host/be a part of your wedding. Wishing you all the best.
The foundry was the perfect spot for our wedding, it is elegant with a slightly rustic look. We were lucky enough to enjoy an outside, sunset wedding in the sculpture garden. The foundry is an amazing venue because there is so much versatility that comes with it. The interior is gorgeous with the contrast of the chandeliers on the industrial charm of the building. The sculpture garden, the old wooden bridge, the outside of the building, and the mezzanine were just some of our favorite backdrops for our photos. The staff at the foundry is one of a kind. Caroline and Alia were an amazing support system throughout the entire planning process and especially on the big day. They were there to answer any questions we had. Everyone at the foundry worked so hard to make sure our day was perfect.

I think the reviews for the Foundry speak for themselves, but we had such a positive experience working with the Foundry that I had to write another. We recently chose the Foundry for our wedding ceremony and reception. From the start, Bob and Caroline were so helpful and answered all of my questions-I had a ton!
The venue is beautiful in itself, but the Foundry staff assisted me in so many ways, from floor plans, to day-of planning and coordination with all of the vendors.
Our wedding went flawlessly. Besides the comments on how beautiful I was in my dress, the other comments I received the most of were on how beautiful my venue was!! I couldn't have asked for a more perfect place to get married!!

Elizabeth, we can not thank you enough for this incredibly thoughtful and detailed review. Wow! It was such an honor to cater/host/be a part of your wedding. Wishing you all the best.
My husband and I were looking for somewhere unique and rustic to have our reception without being outside in August. I just wanted a place that was different. When I searched for venues, the first one that caught my eye was the Foundry! I had to convince Chris to go out to Phoenixville with me because it was not right around the corner, but it was well worth the short drive past King of Prussia. When we walked into the Foundry, our jaws dropped, our eyes widened, and my heart skipped a beat. I had the same feeling 13 months later when I walked in there the night of our wedding. We had our reception at the Foundry and the place was stunning! Bob and Caroline were a joy to work with and allowed me to put my own touches on our celebration. All 250 of our guests could not stop talking about how special the venue was.
We made our own centerpieces and brought in some other personal touches and they allowed pretty much anything! I was able to drop everything off a day in advance and they helped us bring it in the day before and come back to get it after the wedding day. I am so glad we found the Foundry and even happier that we chose to have the biggest celebration of our lives there. The setting with the steel beams and high ceilings is just phenomenal and the band sounded amazing! There was also a bridal sweet my girls and I could escape to if we needed a break or to touch up and the 6 children in our wedding were able to hang out there later in the night when they got tired which was so helpful. It even rained on our wedding day :(, but since we had our reception at the Foundry, I barely noticed! The place is so special inside that it did not matter.
Response from the Vendor on 08/31/2014
Jaclyn, Thank you for all the kind words, truly is was our pleasure! We wish you and Chris happy & healthy endeavors as you start your new lives together!
The Phoenixville Foundry was the perfect venue for our wedding. It was spacious, elegant, interesting, and modern. The team at the foundry is so professional and helpful! They want your day to be perfect just like you do. I just can't say enough! I want to do it all over again.
Response from the Vendor on 06/28/2022
Thank you for the wonderful compliments. It was an honor to help make your day so special. We wish you a lifetime of love and happiness.
We were so thrilled with every aspect of our wedding at the Phoenixville Foundry! Bob and Caroline were so wonderful to work with from the moment we met them. Every time we came by the Foundry, they were there to welcome us and they were very responsive any time we contacted them with questions. They were very accommodating to all our needs. The venue was gorgeous - we had the ceremony outside and the reception inside and we heard so many compliments from guests about how much they loved the Foundry. We are so happy we chose this location - everything went so smoothly and the Foundry had everything we needed. The bridal suite there was perfect for my bridesmaids and I to hang out in before the ceremony. Caroline was great to work with as we were finalizing all the details. Angela was also great as a "day of" point person. I would recommend this venue to any brides looking for a beautiful setting with a well organized and professional staff!

Thank you for the wonderful compliments. It was an honor to help make your day so special. We wish you a lifetime of love and happiness.
phoenixville foundry was just spectacular! it was love at first site when we had our initial walk through and i really feel like it had an industrial feel for my construction working hubby :) this really is the most modern and amazing venue around! we ended up using the entire facility (thanks to the very attentive staff there) and my guests just loved every aspect of it! i couldn't have pictured my wedding to be anywhere else!
I absolutely fell in love with this venue from the first time I came to visit with my husband and wedding planner. The grounds were well kept, private and unique. I loved the option of having my ceremony outside, reception inside and plenty of photo opt areas around. As we ascended in and I was able to see the architectural ceilings, beautiful chandelers, hard wood floors and monotone carpetting, I knew this was it! The space really allows you to do whatever you want. The rich colors of grey and dark wood worked with almost any color. The Bridal suite was a additional bonus. The service provided by the staff was the cherry on top! Everything was clean, organized and well prepared for the unprepared. I would use this venue again and again and again!
When looking for a wedding venue, we checked out multiple locations in the Philadelphia area. As soon as we entered the Foundry, we knew we were getting married there. The decor and style is so unique, with a "industrial chic" feel that suited us perfectly. We were a bit nervous that we had to choose from one of their preferred caterers, but were thrilled with the service with Queen of Hearts Catering. We loved that we were able to provide our own alcohol, which helped with our budget. Caroline was great with helping us set up the space and recommending a great "backup" option should the weather prohibit an outdoor ceremony. Our guests were "wowed" with the Foundry, and we are still getting compliments on our choice of venue.
We loved the Foundry, and couldn't imagine our big day anywhere else!
We could not have picked a better venue for our wedding day. This place is amazing and it provided a beautiful back drop to our wedding. Everyone was raving about how beautiful the place was and I am so glad we booked it. The rental fee is high but you also supply your own alcohol which saves a lot of money. It was worth every penny we spent.
The Phoenixville Foundry is an unbelievable venue to have a wedding. It's modern and unique theme will fit with anyone's taste and style because you are working with a blank slate! You can make it look however you wish by putting your own touch on every little detail. If you are up for the challenge of having to buy/rent everything that goes into a wedding venue, then I say it is definitely worth the work! All my guests keep telling me that the Foundry is the most beautiful venue they have been to.
Our daughter''s wedding was Jan. 21st. What a perfect place for both the ceremony and reception. High ceilings and fabulous chandeliers, double staircase, floor to ceiling windows and a top-notch staff. Together with J. Scott Catering the folks at Phoenixville Foundry created a true wonderland for Rachel and Mike. Caroline is a gem who was a delight to work with. She took the reins at the rehearsal which was great, because we'd never done this before! During the entire evening she was present with a watchful eye to assist in any way. Between the talent of J.Scott and the beauty of this magical building we have absolutely wonderful memories of our daughter's wedding.
Absolutely beautiful venue. Unique to our style. Downside-closest hotel about a 15 minute drive. Venue rental is pricey, no "services" provided, bring in all your own vendors. BE AWARE: vendors need particular insurance requirements that I have not encountered elsewhere.
You know the place is right when everyone tells you for weeks after the wedding that it was the best one they had been too. Not only did the Foundry exceed my expectations as a parent, they made every effort to work flawlessly with the Caterer, DJ, Photographer, Florest & Baker. They really know how to coordinate from start to finish!!!
My daughter & son-in-law were extremely happy to have their day turn out perfectly in a most beautiful setting. Reminded me of a "fairy-tale" with them being the Prince & Princess.
The Foundry is a hidden gem, and the staff is beyond incredible. My husband and I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful backdrop for our reception; we would recommend it to anyone. If you are looking for a elegant and unique space in the Philadelphia suburbs, the Phoenixville Foundry could be perfect for you. :)
The Phoenixville Foundry was everything my now husband and I were looking for. The inside of the building offers a mix of masculinity with a feminine side; it mixes modern styles with elegance. The outside is just as beautiful- with the steel gazebo and the hardscaping. The director of the Foundry, Bob, is fantastic to work with. He really listens and tries to incorporate what the couple envisions for their wedding. The Foundry does need individual insurance for every vendor you have, so please be aware of this before you book your vendors, otherwise you are responsible for providing insurance for them. The Foundry was a perfect place for us to get married at.
After searching for months, we came across this gem! We were looking for a unique venue that would wow our guests. We were trying to stay away from the traditional country club wedding. We can't say enough about Joan, Bob, and Caroline. They were so wonderful to work with and really made our wedding run smoothly. They were flexible and were able to accommodate our needs. Thank you so much for a great day!
