The perfect Philadelphia event venue does exist.

Our family has spent nearly half a century cultivating the rural paradise that is Sacred Meadow.

Today, you can enjoy our decades of horticulture and interior design by hosting your next event in our expansive gardens or by booking a stay in the main house. We host everything from intimate outdoor weddings and anniversaries to yoga classes and wellness retreats. Whether you’re looking for a quick weekend getaway or a venue big enough to host your extended family and in-laws, we’re here to help you make the magic happen.

Our Story

In 1983, Marjorie Schneider purchased a parcel of land from a landscaping and plant nursery firm to follow a calling towards botanical stewardship she couldn’t quite explain. Throughout the next two decades, she obtained a degree in horticulture and put hard work and love into helping the land reach its full potential. Eventually, Marjorie Schneider Nurseries became one of the Main Line’s leading nurseries and landscaping services. With the help of William Shutter of Shutter & Stern Design, Marjorie curated a stunning space, complete with a quatrefoil pool and pool house. Today, under the name Sacred Meadow, Marjorie’s passion project continues to live on through the hands and hearts of her children, providing the community with delightful flora, charming suites, and stunning event curation.

Having experienced the magic of Sacred Meadow throughout my life, I am committed to ensuring that our mother’s vision lives on through every shrub, perennial, and rose bush on the premises. Most importantly, I intend to honor her legacy by providing the best quality services and hosting unforgettable events. We welcome everyone to make their celebration one for the books at Sacred Meadow.

Sacred Meadow is more than just a nursery or an outdoor venue—it’s a place for making memories and embracing nature in all its glory. My family and I have put our hearts and souls into Sacred Meadow for forty years. I hope it will continue being a source of inspiration and joy to the Main Line and Upper Main line communities for years to come.

Marjorie Schneider

Sacred Meadow events have been among my most treasured and memorable moments. My sister had her wedding there, my nephew had his bar mitzvah party, and our parents had their 70th-anniversary celebration there, too. We couldn't have dreamed of a better venue or a more meaningful place to experience some of our most significant milestones.
