Castles in Pennsylvania: Best Mansion Wedding Venues
If you’re beginning to plan your upcoming ceremony and reception, firstly, congratulations are in order! You’re about to embark on one of the best chapters in your life. Now the fun starts, as we truly believe that wedding planning can be a low-stress, enjoyable process. Especially when you book one of the best mansion wedding venues in Pennsylvania: Buhl Mansion Guesthouse & Spa. You’ll have a stunning setting from as small as elopements for two up to 120 guests with detailed and experienced event planners on your team and luxurious lodging options on-site for up to 20 of your closest family or friends.
For those brides (or grooms, for that matter) who have been dreaming of their wedding day since they were little, Buhl Mansion is one of those magical venues. As one of the most well-known castles in Pennsylvania, the mansion was built in the 1890s as a wedding gift from Frank Buhl to his beautiful bride. While we might not all be able to construct a giant castle for our future spouse, you can have the place to yourself with our “Castle for a Day” whole property rental. Which is truly the most magnificent way to spend your wedding day, treated like royalty.
Our convenient location in Sharon, PA, in Mercer County, perched on the edge of the Ohio border, is an ideal destination. It is close enough for your guests coming from Pittsburgh, Akron, or Cleveland but far enough to be immersed in a lovely small-town setting. Buhl Mansion offers that wow factor from the start; as your guests arrive, the castle is a crowning jewel of our beautifully maintained garden property.

Some recent reviews from happy couples who choose our mansion wedding venue:
- Princess for Day: “This venue was everything I dreamed it would be and more! The staff was so professional and helpful, and any mixups that happened were all resolved. The grounds were beautiful, an absolutely stunning property. This venue allowed me to achieve my princess wedding dream without breaking the bank (my personal favorite part)! I have nothing but good things to say about this property and the staff. Loved it!” –The Knot
- Truly Pampered: “Unbelievably amazing experience. We booked a few nights to stay in the wonderful Grand Gables room leading up to our wedding then rented out the entire Mansion and grounds the day of our wedding. I can’t tell you enough how much you 100% get what you pay for with this venue. The pampering, the help with EVERYTHING from bringing in our car full of wedding stuff and luggage to loading the gifts and luggage and all back at the end. From the most relaxing manicure/pedicure and massage I’ve had in their spa to the group breakfast buffet they set up for our guests the morning after the wedding.” –The Wedding Wire
Romantic Lodging for Your Wedding Night & Honeymoon
When making your choice from the mansion wedding venues in Pennsylvania, picking one that has lodging is always a smart idea. Even though we have a lovely team on-site to make sure your big day goes off without a hitch, you’ll still have that classic, unavoidable fatigue that brides and grooms feel after this exciting and long day, dancing, chatting with loved ones and being the center of attention.
When you choose the “Castle for a Day” package, the newlyweds can slip away to one of the Royal Grand Rooms. The Grand Gables room is one of the most spectacular for your wedding night. The oversized jacuzzi tub is housed in the stunning turret of the castle, where romance blooms. This third-floor room has a luxurious king-size bed dressed in Comphy brand linens, cozy robes, and a gas fireplace. It’s the perfect place to unwind after your big day, recap the events, and get to have that first memorable night together as a married couple.
Another perk of choosing Buhl Mansion as your wedding venue is our on-site Pevonia International Elite Spa. You and your guests are more than welcome to add on spa massages, manicures/pedicures, and facials, all for 10% off. Heading to the spa is the perfect pre- or post-event time to prim or decompress. We also love welcoming back our happy couples for anniversaries. Hearing stories from those who have held weddings at the mansion is always a treat.
