PepperTheo Events

PepperTheo Events is a private event venue in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, set in the historic Refectory on the grounds of Lancaster Theological Seminary. The venue occupies a restored church building dating from 1916, where Tudor Revival features, stained-glass windows, original dining tables and two large fireplaces create a distinctive setting for gatherings. A patio offers an additional outdoor area when the weather permits.

The space is available for weddings and receptions, rehearsal dinners, bridal and baby showers, milestone birthdays, anniversaries and other private celebrations. Organisers can also enquire about corporate meetings, retreats and networking events, as well as styled photo shoots and creative productions. The venue’s character makes it a particularly considered choice for hosts looking for a historic setting rather than a conventional function room.

PepperTheo is dedicated to private events, and prospective organisers can contact the team to discuss their plans or arrange a tour. Catering is offered through Cracked Pepper Catering, which can work with clients on a menu suited to the event, guest numbers and dietary requirements. The catering team also serves events at other locations, while PepperTheo itself provides the venue for celebrations held on site. With its architectural details, indoor reception space and weather-dependent patio, the venue can accommodate a range of intimate social and business occasions in Lancaster.
