    Arts Ballroom is fantastic. Lovely communicative team, beautiful space in a 1920s buildings but the ballroom was renovated in early 2000s to make it purpose made for excellent event flows. We had our ceremony and reception there. The food was absolutely amazing. People are still talking about the incredible dessert room especially. The layout is perfect because it allows folks to dance or drink or just talk in a quieter nook. The location is perfect too. It's at Broad and Locust and we used the DoubleTree (1 min walk) and Fairfield Inn (3 min walk) which are great quality but affordable options with plenty of rooms. The next morning we did a farewell breakfast at Estia which I also highly recommend! Great food and only 2 min walk across Broad Street to get there.
