The Booking House

The Booking House, a premier wedding and event destination, is nestled in the heart of Manheim, Pennsylvania. Our historic venue, once an old General Cigar Co. Warehouse built in 1884, stands as a testament to the rich history of tobacco and cigar making in Lancaster, PA.

The idea for The Booking House was born out of a simple observation: the beauty and potential of an old brick structure with thick chestnut beams and wood floors. After years of being used primarily for storage, our family decided to breathe new life into this old beauty, transforming it into a unique event space where people could celebrate life's finest moments.

Construction began in October 2013, and after months of hard work, we completed renovations in July 2014. Since then, we have continually updated features throughout the building, big and small, to ensure that every event hosted here is truly unforgettable.

In Summer 2022, we embarked on a new project - creating an outdoor-feel event space within the building that would eliminate the stress of weather. By September 2023, The Atrium was complete! This new space offers a variety of features including a 13' x 13' skylight, 6 large garage door windows, a stunning chandelier, white brick, and concrete floors.

Our team, led by President JP Perron and Director of Hospitality Michele Perron, is dedicated to providing exceptional service and ensuring that every event hosted at The Booking House is nothing short of perfect. We treat each event and wedding with as much attention and care as if it's our own, striving for a sparkling clean building with friendly and accommodating staff eager to help with your successful event. We create and maintain connections with local event professionals to offer you genuine recommendations to help build your event dream team.

With over 800 events successfully hosted in our venue, we persist in evolving as a close-knit work family to enhance our service for all our clients. We're excited for the next chapter in our journey and look forward to helping you celebrate life's finest moments at The Booking House.
