Let me start by saying Liz and her amazing staff at elegant celebrations are top notch! I loveeee Liz she was very professional, was always available and made my day soooo special. Any little mishap that happened on my day which wasn’t many but however Liz and her staff went above and beyond to work out the kinks with my music last min change and my videographer arriving at the wrong place! She took prompt care of everything. If you are looking for a small venue with 40 guest or less BOOK with Elegant Celebrations and you will not be disappointed!

Pine Ridge Farm was the perfect wedding venue for our special day. From the moment we first connected with the Fowlers, their communication was quick, concise, and made us feel completely comfortable. The quality of their work and the overall value was amazing - the venue was clean, welcoming, inviting, and absolutely beautiful. They made everything go smoothly, were always there when we had questions, and were so respectful and relatable throughout the process. The Fowlers truly felt like family from the start and got rid of any jitters or anxiety that came with wedding planning. I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a seamless and unforgettable wedding day.

As a queer couple, it was imperative to us that we find a venue where we felt truly comfortable and excited about hosting such a big event. Lilah was exactly that. The space is stunning and speaks for itself, as does the food—many of our guests said was the best they’d had. But the way Lilah really sets itself apart from all the other venues in Philly—or really, any other venue we’ve ever been to—is its staff. Shari, Neira, Andy, Alysha, Day, and Jess (just to name a few) were all consummate professionals and, more importantly, complete delights to work with. Jess in particular—her formal title is director of events, but we think guru is more fitting—was instrumental as our month-of coordinator and we don’t know what we would’ve done without her. She guided us towards the best vendors and helped us plan and execute every last detail on a relatively expedited timeline. Most importantly, she made sure that we were well-fed, hydrated, centered, and downright joyful on the big day (even going out of her way to plan and document certain quiet moments that ended up being our favorites of the entire weekend). What’s more is that she and the entire Lilah team somehow made every attendee felt the same level of cared-for and looked-after too. We couldn’t be more thrilled with Lilah and are so grateful it exists.

Hazelwood Weddings was only the second venue we visited and we knew before the end of our time there that it was where we wanted to get married! For starters the grounds are breathtaking and the structures are ready for every couple to add their own unique touches to. The property has two getting ready suites, parking for all guests, multiple ceremony spots to choose from, options for all different kinds of weather, includes all necessary furniture, and is accessible to all bodies. Hazelwood Weddings had everything we were looking for and more, but what sealed the deal for us was the interactions with the owners, Kate and Adam. Kate took us on our tour and was so prepared. She made everything about the wedding planning process feel easy. Kate was very informative but not pushy and assured us she was there to help and encouraged us to take our time in making our venue decision. Adam took care of business on the back end and was quick to respond to all our emails and also sent out friendly reminders for upcoming payments. As an added bonus, Hazelwood Weddings includes a coordination package with a planner from Blake Events. From them we were provided with a wedding planning checklist, a list of suggested vendors, and a portal to upload all contracts. At ninety days out, Emma took over putting together the timeline and coordinating with our caterer, baker, rental company, florist, officiant, dj, beauty services team, photographer, and transportation provider. She was in charge the day of and everything went smoothly and we felt no stress. Our dream of an autumunal sunset wedding filled with subtle nods to our nerdy interests was perfectly us and brought to reality thanks to Hazelwood Weddings. We could not recommend them enough!

We had our winter wedding at the Philadelphia Horticulture Center at Fairmount Park, and I truly cannot say enough amazing things about this venue. Olivia and her team made it pure magic from start to finish. The space is absolutely stunning — even in the winter, it feels like you’re stepping into a romantic garden oasis. The greenery, natural light, and elegant greenhouse vibe create the perfect mix of cozy and breathtaking, and our guests could not stop talking about how unique and beautiful it was and how good the food and cocktails were. The setting is naturally gorgeous, which made our photos look like something out of a magazine. The venue flows beautifully for a wedding — from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception — and it felt intimate, warm, and inviting while still being spacious enough to celebrate comfortably. The winter atmosphere made it even more special: romantic, glowing, and timeless. If you’re looking for a Philadelphia wedding venue that feels elevated, charming, and unforgettable, the Horticulture Center is it. It’s a true hidden gem in the city and was the perfect backdrop for the most incredible day of our lives. We are so grateful we chose this venue — it was everything we dreamed of and more.

My now husband and I have been going to Fringe since early in our dating. It's a place we love for its beer garden, good food, cool building, and view of the Ben Franklin Bridge twinkling at night. We knew we wanted to celebrate our wedding here, but we had no idea just how magical the experience would be. Working with Liz at Fringe Bar and Devi at FringeArts Theater made everything so easy. Liz was incredible to work with on all details regarding food and drink menu, schedule of events, and coordinating with other vendors including table rentals, florists, and musicians. Her recommendations were spot on, and our night flowed so effortlessly on our side because of the whole staff's diligent work to make our experience amazing. Our guests enjoyed the indoor and outdoor beer garden during cocktail hour with ample places to cozy up on a beautiful fall night, drinking cocktails outside and inside while kids played corn hole and garden games. When we moved dinner into the theater space, guests were blown away by the delicious food and ambiance. Every appetizer, cocktail, and entree was out of this world delicious, and we had no problem with allergies or dietary restrictions at our 130 person reception. Our guests are still talking about how great the food and service was, months after the fact. Liz made all of our wildest dreams come true. 300 freshly shucked oysters during cocktail hour? You got it. Mai tais with housemade orgeat? It's their specialty. Steak frites for the adults and grilled cheese for the kids? No problem at all. Fireball shots in the middle of dinner with Pitbull's "Fireball" playing in the background? Executed perfectly. The wine poured effortlessly, nobody had to wait at the beautiful bar for a cocktail made to order, and best of all: Liz was spot on in her price estimates so there were no surprises at the end of the night. We went to Fringe the next day to sign the final bill, and Liz was waiting for us with boxed up leftovers from dinner and dessert for our family to enjoy while we flew off on our honeymoon. Liz and every person working with her is really, truly, the best in the business. My husband and I agree that celebrating our wedding at Fringe was the easiest and best decision we made. We couldn't have asked for anything better.

My partner and I had the best experience working with Deyna Hamilton from Manayunk Brewing for our wedding reception! From the moment we booked the space a year prior, Deyna was so hands-on with us and helped with everything along the way. Every time we met, she kept us on track and helped us organize our to-do list and was such a pleasure to work with. She clearly has a ton of experience with planning and organizing events, and on the day-of, Deyna made sure we had the most carefree and fun time! The cocktail hour & reception space were perfect for my husband and I. We hosted about 80 people, so everybody had a lot of room to mingle and have drinks and dance. We chose to do stations for dinner, and they were a hit! Everybody told us how much they enjoyed the food during the cocktail hour and reception. The chef at Manayunk is very good! Deyna helped us choose all of the food in the months leading up to our reception which was also a load off our minds! We had a great time utilizing the bridal suite in the hours before our reception - it was a great space to have drinks and snacks with our family, put together some of our decor, and get ready. Deyna and the other staffers helped us tremendously by putting together the reception & cocktail hour space with all of our decorations, flowers, and photos. Deyna provided recommendations for vendors, so it was easy to choose a DJ (John Cicala from Silver Sounds) who already knew the venue! We can’t recommend Manayunk and Deyna enough. They were so wonderful to us! Thank you for everything!

The Harper is nestled in a gorgeous plot of land with a bubbling stream and a beautiful pond. If that doesn’t sound perfect enough, the owner, Natasha Learn has made the interior the perfect event venue. The aesthetic alone is very stunning, while still being simple yet elegant enough to match basically any aesthetic you could ask for. What made my event magical was planning my wedding with Natasha and getting her full-service day-of coordination. She is spectacular. My mother and I normally bicker about everything, yet by working with Natasha, she saw both my mother’s vision and my own come into beautiful fruition. We have no connection to Meadville whatsoever and for most of us, it took at least 2 hours to get to Meadville. I would make people drive 10 hours to go to Meadville for the sake of having a wedding at the Harper. The Harper is a stunning venue, that was accessible to any person- elderly, handicapped, coming with many children, disorganized bride, and even a very grumpy grandma. As a side note, any mothers, fathers, grooms, brides, etc. Save the relationships, and sign up for full-service planning. It is the most valuable thing about Natasha/ The Harper!

We cannot say enough great things about our experience at the Cork Factory Hotel, thanks to the incredible team that made our wedding so special, starting with our first discussions and meeting with Keri! First and foremost, our coordinator, Mary, was an absolute rockstar. From the moment we started planning to the last dance of the night, she went above and beyond to ensure everything was seamless. Her attention to detail, organization, and calming presence made all the difference. She worked tirelessly behind the scenes, and we truly couldn’t have done it without her! The culinary team also deserves a huge shoutout for their flexibility and dedication to accommodating dietary needs. They provided amazing gluten-free options for Christine and select guests, ensuring that everyone had a delicious meal without any worries. All of the food was incredible, and the service was just as impressive, from our rehearsal dinner at the bakers table, our reception, and our morning after breakfast. We also want to recognize Rosetta at the front desk, who went out of her way to fix an issue with our room. She handled everything with professionalism and kindness, making sure we were comfortable and happy. From start to finish, the entire team exceeded our expectations, and we are beyond grateful for their hard work. If you’re looking for a venue with top-tier service, you’ve found it! — Stephen & Christine

It started with our initial meeting with Kim, who made us feel so comfortable with her expertise and experience in the wedding industry. The venue space was unique, had so many things included-like beautiful tables, chairs, linens, spaces for cocktail area as well as an outdoor space for a ceremony. Working with Kim & Hannah was amazing. Communication was well received and questions answered within hours. These two ladies helped my daughters vision for her wedding come to life without missing a beat. Additionally the food-Was plentiful, hot & delicious. The presentation was beautiful as well. The servers were eager, kind, pleasant & on point throughout the night. Our daughter and her husband had their own point person (BRIDAL CAPTAIN) who made sure they had everything they needed throughout the reception. He paid attention to every detail, including each of their favorite drinks. The bartending service was excellent and guests were served with efficiency and ease. Our guests went out of their way to tell us how excellent the food and service was at this event. Honestly there is nothing I would have changed for this event & my daughter and her husband agree.

The in house team is incredible - Kasie, Kaitlin and Sarah were responsive to every question we had, providing recommendations and offering up any help needed to bring our vision to life. I love that they went above and beyond and sourced local whiskey for our specialty cocktail! Their enormous storage closet of wedding decor saved us a lot of money too. Everything will go smoothly with the Armory team at the helm - they have running events down to a science. The entire space is so beautiful that you do not need to spend on decor - it is industrial but still warm and inviting. The lighting is perfect, the sound system is flawless, and their pulley system of curtains makes for a seamless and beautiful transition between ceremony to cocktail hour to reception. The lofted getting ready suite is enormous which was a huge plus: we are an LGBT couple so we had 2 brides and 20 other people eating brunch and getting ready together and we all fit. I am an event planner as my day job so I have high standards and a *lot* of opinions when it comes to events, and there's not a single thing I would have changed or done differently!

We had our wedding ceremony, reception, and rehearsal dinner at this venue in the fall of 2024. It was beautiful and all our vendors really out did themselves. The venue was easy to work with and super accommodating of our ideas and plans. The caterer they work with was great as well and all my guests had a lovely time. We choose to stay at the house on-site and do the wine pouring ceremony, both of which I would recommend. No complaints and our pictures turned out amazing in the vineyards.

Its rustic yet refined feel makes this space the perfect venue for your special occasion.

Given the timing of opening our space, we, like many others, were halted due to COVD-19. Beginning in the Spring of 2021 we were able to resume hosting events and honing in on the original concept of a versatile event venue partnered with a fine arts gallery.
