Our entire experience working with the team at The Warrington was amazing. Guests raved about food for days, the staff and bridal attendants were so kind and helpful, and our coordinator was always available to answer our questions and help make this process as easy as possible for us.

My fiancé and I were looking for a rustic wedding venue, not a ballroom, preferably a venue with space to be outside (weather permitting). We visited a few options in the Philly area and fell in love with the John James Audubon Center! The space offers SO many options for an outdoor or indoor ceremony. They host receptions in the pavilion which is open with huge windows and firepits outside! The site is beautiful, and everyone we’ve worked with has been immensely helpful! After officially booking for our October 2024 wedding, we planned to visit with our parents. What was originally intended to be a quick stroll around the grounds turned into an impromptu tour with the venue manage. She answered all of our parents' questions and even brought out photo books of previous weddings for us to flip through together. With the wedding right around the corner now, we could not be more thrilled with our decision and can't wait to be there next month to celebrate our big day!

Carina was our wedding coordinator and was fantastic from the beginning! She was on top of everything and made sure our wedding day was perfect! We looked at several venues, but Penn Oaks had everything we were looking for and more. There’s a lot included in their 2 wedding packages, which made our decision easy. The bridal suite is very spacious and big enough for my bridal party of 7. Cocktail hour was a hit! They have two beautiful ceremony options (inside/outside) and are flexible if a change needed to be made due to weather. Don’t miss this venue!

She calmed all my nerves and ALWAYS checked in on us. She was on the ball all the time to say the least. White Manor has an amazing wedding to offer any couple. The food was amazing from the plated dinner to the appetizers and pasta taco station. We heard nothing but amazing compliments about the food. The bartenders were fast and served all 175 guests with ease. I wouldn’t change a single thing about the best day of my life. Thank you WMCC & Kelsey!
