    Absolutely worth it!

    Everyone was astounding to work with and made the day go smoothly! We're so happy that our guests had such a memorable experience (they're still talking about it!). We can't thank everyone enough. All the teams ran efficiently, communicated well and were pleasant to work with. Our guests really felt taken care of, which is what we wanted when choosing our venue. We specifically chose the Kimmel Center to showcase Philadelphia to our visiting guests.

If you choose the package that includes a ceremony, you'll enjoy 5.5 hours of celebration time, with everything you need to say "I do" and dance the night away. If you'd prefer a package without an on-site ceremony, you'll have 5 hours to celebrate in style, with plenty of time for dining, dancing, and creating unforgettable memories.
Yes! Our beautiful Balcony Bar offers breathtaking views that overlook the iconic Avenue of the Arts. It's the perfect location to kick off your celebration with a memorable cocktail hour, allowing your guests to enjoy the stunning scenery while sipping on drinks and mingling before the main celebration!
For detailed information about our catering packages, please inquire directly. We'll be happy to guide you through the available options and help you choose the perfect menu for your big day!
We have an exclusive catering partnership with RHC Events to handle all catering needs. For other vendors like decor, music, photography, and more, you're welcome to choose your own! If you'd like to work with a vendor we haven’t collaborated with before, we’ll be happy to discuss their plans and review our building guidelines and regulations. Please contact us before booking any vendors, so we can ensure everything aligns and is feasible for your event.
Yes! While our standard weddings typically conclude around 11:00 PM, our wedding package offers flexibility with the timeline. Whether you’d like to extend the celebration or add an after-party, we can work with you to ensure your event flows exactly how you envision it.
Yes! We have a wedding suite located just off the cocktail space for your pre-ceremony preparations. Depending on the size of your wedding party, we offer options to have the bridal party together or separate for added comfort. You’ll have access to these suites one hour before your ceremony time to ensure everyone has plenty of time to get ready. While the suites are available, we recommend getting ready and changing at your hotel before arriving at the Kimmel Cultural Campus for a smoother, stress-free experience.
Absolutely! You and your guests are welcome to take photos throughout the Kimmel Center. However, please note that access to the theaters is restricted. We typically schedule venue photos one hour before the ceremony to capture the beautiful surroundings and ensure everything is ready for your big day.
We schedule only one wedding per day, per building, ensuring your celebration gets our full attention. While there may be other events within the same building, we carefully manage the flow of guests to ensure everyone is in the right place at the right time, so you can enjoy your day without any interruptions.
