Helpful Info for Couples Planning Their Wedding at the Phoenixville Foundry

One of the most appealing features of the Phoenixville Foundry are the catering options. As the in-house caterer, J. Scott Catering offers true farm-to-table cuisine customized for the different wedding packages. They use only fresh ingredients and create one-of-a-kind wedding menus with their talented culinary staff. Couples can collaborate with the staff to plan exactly what they’d like for their big day.

The Foundry offers wedding pricing dependent on the season, so couples can discuss rates for off season, regular season, and peak season. The rental fee depends on the season, day, and guest count. The good news is that they don’t have a minimum guest count, ideal for small weddings, but can also accommodate larger weddings up to 275 guests. On the day of the wedding, couples have access to the event space 2-3 hours prior to the start of their event and receptions can last 5 hours, 5.5 if the ceremony is hosted at the Foundry as well.

Phoenixville Foundry is a full-service venue, which means that you don’t have a single thing to worry about from start to finish.

A few things included with rental of the Foundry are full event production including lights, sound and CAD plans, a live facility manager during the wedding, directional parking attendants, all furniture and linen rentals, and a catering package.
