The Perfect Canvas for Our Dream Wedding
My husband manages Kathedral, so I’ve spent a lot of time in the space over the years—but getting married there was something else entirely. We had a very specific vision for our wedding day, and even with my familiarity with the venue, I was blown away by how beautifully it all came together. Kathedral truly is the perfect canvas—it allowed us to bring our ideas to life in a way that felt personal, unique, and completely “us.” One of the biggest bonuses was having the boutique hotel attached to the building. It made everything so much easier and more enjoyable—our entire wedding party was able to stay together under one roof, which kept the day stress-free and gave us extra time to soak in every moment with the people we love most. We worked with an incredible group of vendors who truly became a dream team. They collaborated seamlessly, managed every detail, and transformed the venue into something magical. The entire day ran smoothly and effortlessly, and we were able to be fully present knowing we were in such good hands. Being part of so many weddings as the partner of someone in the industry gave me a different perspective—but experiencing our own wedding at Kathedral made me fall in love with the space in a whole new way. It was the best day of our lives, and I’m so grateful we got to spend it there.
Response from vendor•Aug 15, 2025Thank you, Matthew! Everything came together perfectly on Kathedral’s canvas. Cheers to the best day ever!Highly recommemd!
Kathedral Event Center was the perfect venue for our wedding. The communication with Max and his team was timely and consistent throughout the planning process. Their value far exceeded our expectations - the package they put together was perfect for our price point and needs. Max and his team were incredibly accommodating and friendly, providing excellent support and communication every step of the way. I would highly recommend this venue for any event, especially a wedding.
Response from vendor•Jun 23, 2025Thank you, Jennifer! It was an honor to be a part of your and Michael's special day.Incredible & Unique Place to Get Married
Originally when we were setting our sights on wedding venues, we didn't realize how either a) incredibly expensive or b) formulaic and plug-and-play they were. The Kathedral offered us a blank slate to source our own caterer and pick out our seating and table arrangements. We even sourced desserts from several different places, and the Kathedral staff worked with our caterer to setup our vision: a Harry-Potter inspired dessert table, which was an incredible surprise and it looked even better than I had imagined it. To top it off, we elected to have our ceremony at Hammonton Lake Park and while it's a bit stressful to get everything set up, we were allowed to have full control over (mostly) everything - just remember you can't control if it rains or is outrageously hot! The Kathedral staff is always ready to help with recommendations over trusted vendors as well. The Martinn is an adorable boutique hotel that we were able to fully book up for our wedding party. It was a great place to get ready and a super comfortable place to stay the night after our wedding. We've even talked about just going back, even 3 years later, and having a little "local getaway" to stay at The Martinn and spending a weekend in Hammonton. All in all, if you're more of a creative-type and want your special day to have a bit more of a personal touch, we couldn't recommend The Kathedral (and The Martinn) enough.
Response from vendor•Jun 6, 2025Thank you so much for your kind words, Connie! It was an absolute pleasure to be a part of your and Brett’s special day. We can’t wait to host your getaway to Hammonton!Thanks Kathedral!
We had our Nigerian-Cameroonian wedding at Kathedral Event Centre, and it was the perfect venue for blending two rich cultures with elegance and ease. The space handled our large guest list, traditional attire, live music, and multiple outfit changes without a hitch. From the beautiful stage to the lighting and sound, everything enhanced the celebration. Huge thanks to Max and the entire team for their professionalism, flexibility, and attention to detail.
Response from vendor•May 2, 2025Thank you, Tiwa! It was an honor to host your and Franck’s family.
