Having photographed dozens, I can tell you that weddings at the 1740 House beautifully blend historic Bucks County Style with rustic elegance. The 1740 House features 23 guest rooms and suites, all with private baths and all with a view of the Delaware River. It’s been a B&B since Harry Nessler opened it way back in 1968. The original stone structure from the 1790’s, is flanked by two larger wood additions, and remnants of an old stone barn. The feeling is relaxed and easy and the service is friendly and always professional.
Every guest room features a large window overlooking the canal and river. First-floor rooms all have outdoor terraces, and second-story rooms all have balconies with comfortable tables and chairs.
Joe Luccaro, who currently owns HollyHedge Estate, and four other long-time residents of Bucks County purchased the property in 2010. They created a lovely courtyard for weddings at the 1740 House which they use for ceremonies and their private pub for receptions.
The property specializes in small weddings and I remember photographing the first one there. It's a quaint inn with a lot of charm and atmosphere, a great place for your rehearsal dinner or intimate celebration. The 1740 House can offer everything from a formal sit-down dinner to a casual barbecue, and they have certified event planners to help you plan and choose the perfect menu.
The 1740 House rooms are also used to accommodate overflow guests from HollyHedge Estate weddings, with shuttles available between the two venues
