We recently held our wedding at DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Philadelphia West, and I can't recommend this venue enough! From start to finish, our experience was exceptional, largely thanks to our amazing coordinator, Mary-Kate. Mary-Kate was an absolute gem—her professionalism and attention to detail made the entire planning process seamless. She worked closely with us and our future in-laws to coordinate not only the wedding but also the events leading up to and following the big day. Her dedication to making everything perfect was evident, and she was always attentive, following through on every request with ease. The venue itself is beautiful, and the pricing is incredibly reasonable considering the level of care and attention you receive. We were genuinely satisfied with every aspect of our experience and couldn’t have asked for a better setting for our special day. If you're looking for a venue that combines excellent service with a stunning atmosphere, look no further than DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Philadelphia West. We sing high praises for this place and are so grateful for everything Mary-Kate did to make our wedding unforgettable!

5.0

Philadelphia, PA
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,000

Arch Street Meeting House is a historic wedding venue located in Old City Philadelphia. The land on which Arch Street Meeting House stands was officially deeded to the Quakers in 1701 and used as a burial ground until 1872. The building was constructed in stages from 1803-1811 when need arose of a larger Meeting House in Philadelphia. The site is still an active place of worship in addition to being used as an educational museum space, and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2011. It is frequently rented for conferences, weddings, dinners, and graduations. The building sits on just shy of 2 acres, and our grounds include both grassy & brick spaces and lots of mature trees. The entire site exudes an overall historic charm.

Arch Street Meeting House proved to be the ideal spot for our wedding. Jenn was an absolute pleasure to work with and made sure she understood exactly what we were looking for and how her team could help bring it to fruition. They allowed us to close the grounds to the public so that our guests could mingle and sip champagne outside in the beautiful weather. All of the guests commented on how tangibly historical the venue was and how they loved the simplicity and timelessness of the ceremony space. (Which looks absolutely stunning in the few preview photos we've gotten back.) Because it was so much more affordable, we also decided to hold our rehearsal dinner there and hired a taco truck to act as the caterers. All in all, I can't recommend ASMH or Jenn and the team more highly!!

At the heart of the thriving early industrial community known as Rittenhouse Town, the first paper mill in America was built. It all began when, in 1687, papermaker William Rittenhouse followed other Quaker and Mennonite families emigrating to the newly formed neighborhood of Germantown (founded in 1683). William partnered with Philadelphia’s first printer, purchased a 20-acre plot of land along Paper Mill Run (a tributary of the Wissahickon Creek) and, with the help of his son Nicholas, built the first paper mill in British North America that otherwise could only be delivered from England. For the next 40 years, the Rittenhouse family were the only papermakers in America.

Ask about sound ordinance restrictions especially in historic districts where noise limitations might affect your party timeline. Find out if venues allow outside catering for cultural food requirements you might have. Check whether spaces have dedicated power supplies for entertainment equipment to avoid day-of surprises. Inquire about separate areas for cocktail hours during room transitions so guests aren't left waiting awkwardly. Also confirm whether venue staff assists with setup and breakdown of your personal decorations as policies vary widely between properties.
