About HYDRANGEA EVENTS

Hydrangea Events was created out of the love for helping couples, their families and dearest friends celebrate the beginning of their journey as a married couple. As a photographer, I was there to document the beautiful day created by many amazing vendors. Now, I am thrilled to be there from the beginning, helping to create that perfect day.

Our charming venue is located in Orefield PA on the property of Retriever Brewing Company nestled in a beautiful woodsy setting. The vibe/style is laid back eclectic with a touch of garden earthy tones. The venue has lots of warmth with part stone walls and real wood beams. The overall neutral space is perfect for any color palette so very customizable.

We envision your perfect event as personalized and deeply intentional creating memories that are meant to last.

Let's Celebrate Your Day Together!

Meet Maggie, your host and coordinator

My name is Maggie. I founded our charming micro venue after years of dreaming it up. Sometimes, the path you take leads you exactly where you are meant to be.

I am looking forward to meeting and working with many clients and families, assisting in creating a unique and meaningful day that will be full of stories, laughter...a celebration of a milestone in your life.

Since the focus is on you and the memories you will create at Hydrangea Events, I will tell you just briefly about me, and we can chat more when we meet in person during your tour.

My days start with two strong espressos. I love to read. I adore my husband. My schedule evolves around my rescues' feed times. We have three rescues: Scooby is our 7.5 year old mutt, and Stark and Banner are kitty brothers who are 2. I cherish my friends. I was born and raised in Poland. I've been a wedding and family photographer for almost 18 years now. I love the mountains but also the sound of the ocean. I love the way the air smells right before a snow storm. I love a white-snowed-in winter, but there is something so magical about that summer afternoon sun warming you to your soul.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Where exactly are you located?: Hydrangea Events is located in "the pub" building on the property of Retriever Brewing Company. RBC used to be the Willow Grove Events and was known for hosting large weddings and events.

On the property, there is the big building that is the main "hall" for Retriever Brewing Company. There are also several other buildings.

Do we have to use your vendors?: The vendors you see listed on the 'Vendors' page are hand picked and absolutely wonderful, creating your ultimate 'dream team'. Having been a part of the wedding industry for almost 18 years, I met and worked with many vendors in the Lehigh Valley. Some of us became friends or have worked together on many occasions. They are also amazing creatives, professional, and just all around great people.

However, you may hire your own vendors. :)
Can we bring our own flowers, wine & beer, deserts?: Hydrangea Events is BYOB so you will be bringing your own wine, beer, and spirits.

You are welcome to bring your own flowers and create your own arrangements.

Cake and/or other deserts can be provided only through a licensed bakery or any grocery/bake store as long as they arrive in sealed boxes/containers from those locations.

However, if you have that someone special in your family or friends' group who does super yummy cookies, cakes, or other deserts, just let me know. :)
We booked our ceremony outside. What happens if it rains?: The spacious Bridal Suite filled with lots of natural light will be set up as your indoor ceremony spot in case of rain, excessive heat, high winds, or other inclement weather.

You may also chose to have your ceremony indoors.
Do you have a place where we can get dressed? Have hair & makeup done?: Yes, the ranch house will be set up as two separate areas with Bridal Suite and Partner/Groom Suite. These two spaces are completely separated by my office and so no chances of you running into each other.

The Bridal Suite is a large room with lots of natural light and high ceilings. It is next to a full bath so lots of space to be comfortable.

The Partner/Groom Suite will be in the 'front' of the house and consists of a small living room, dining room, kitchen, and full bath. This space has lots of room to get ready and relax before the I DOs.
Is Hydrangea Events ADA accessible?: Yes. We will go over that in our meeting and tour.
We read that you are remodeling the space. What are the plans for the ranch house and the backyard area?: Since the vision to create a beautiful space for intimate weddings and small events, we mapped out the plan into phases.

Phase One was the remodel of 'the pub' inside. We left the stone walls, the natural wood beams, and the more modern lighting and ceiling as it was since that is what make The Hydrangea charming and perfect for any decor style. We took out the little kitchen area and the oversized bar to create a more open floor plan. We added an amazing all wood vintage bar and a statement beautiful hutch.

Phase Two is to 'convert' the ranch house into the Bridal Suite and the Partner/Groom Suite.

Phase Three is the outdoor (backyard) space with the big outdoor patio and bar. I can already see all the fun and laughter and lots of special moments happening in this private area. The patio will be fixed up and painted. The outdoor bar will be refreshed and set up for outdoor events and receptions. We will be creating a beautiful ceremony spot with amazing mature trees and landscaping as the backdrop. And the pool will be filled to create a garden/grass area to host ceremonies or even tented events.
