A COMPLETE GUIDE TO GETTING MARRIED AT THE ROUNDHOUSE IN BEACON
Why Couples Love The Roundhouse
If you’re dreaming of a Hudson Valley wedding that feels modern, atmospheric, and effortlessly cool, The Roundhouse in Beacon is one of the most sought-after venues in the region.
Set above a dramatic waterfall on Fishkill Creek, this restored 19th-century industrial complex blends historic architecture with contemporary design. Exposed brick, original wood beams, and floor-to-ceiling windows create a striking backdrop that feels both urban and deeply connected to nature.
It’s the rare venue that delivers style, convenience, and a true sense of place — all in one location.
Location & Accessibility
The Roundhouse sits at the east end of Beacon’s lively Main Street, surrounded by restaurants, galleries, and shops. Guests can explore town without needing a car, which makes it especially appealing for NYC couples hosting a weekend celebration.
Key location perks:
About 60 minutes from NYC by train
Walkable downtown for guests
Nearby hiking, art, and Hudson Valley views
Easy travel for out-of-town guests
Beacon itself has become one of the Hudson Valley’s most vibrant wedding destinations — stylish but relaxed, creative but unpretentious.
Ceremony & Reception Spaces
The venue offers several flexible spaces that can accommodate everything from intimate celebrations to large weddings.
The Waterfall Room
The signature event space overlooks the waterfall through massive windows. High ceilings, brick walls, and dramatic views make it ideal for both ceremonies and receptions. It can host up to about 200 guests.
Outdoor Ceremony Options
Couples can exchange vows outside with the sound of the waterfall in the background — one of the most memorable ceremony settings in the Hudson Valley.
A Full-Service Wedding Experience
One of the biggest advantages of The Roundhouse is that it functions as a complete wedding destination.

Having these elements handled in-house simplifies planning dramatically.
What a Wedding Weekend Can Look Like

Morning-after brunch
This creates a cohesive experience for guests and eliminates transportation logistics.
