A Dream Come True
From the moment I became engaged, I knew that I wanted to host the reception at Drexelbrook. I have worked with them before on school events, and I knew they would see my vision. I did my due diligence and visited other venues, but once my parents, my fiancé, and his parents walked in, we knew that this was the one. One of the first things I loved is that we got so much more for the price, most venues offered 4 -5 appetizers, we had double - PLUS STATIONS! The dessert bar was top-tier - not just cake, but also ice cream, cannoli, and the list goes on. What Drexelbrook offered us in physical space, food, plates, napkins, etc, did not hold a torch to how myself, my fiance, and our families were treated. I know they do this for a living and, as I said before, I've worked with them on school events; however, from the moment I signed the contract, I felt as though I was the ONLY bride that establishment was working with in that moment. They understood what this event meant to me. This event was not only important to me as a bride, but also as a daughter trying to honor my mother and the vision she had for my wedding before she passed a few years ago. They eased every fear, walked me off every ledge, gave me patience, kindness, advice, guidance, and so much more. The day of my wedding when my fiance and I did the sneak peek of our reception room during cocktail hour, I could not hold tears back. Somehow they made my vision MORE beautiful than I could imagine. Again, throughout cocktail hour, first dances, speeches, dinner, dancing, and dessert, I felt like I was a princess and royalty. No favor was too big or too small, the entire staff smiled, laughed with us, and were genuinely happy for myself and my husband. I cannot sing their praises enough. I wish I could do it over again just so I could soak in the love, laughter, and fun of that night. Everyone talks about how stressful planning a wedding is, but I felt none of that in deal with Hannah, Kim, Domenick and the rest of the Drexelbrook staff. Thank you Drexelbrook for making every single thing I dreamed of for a wedding come true. You were all amazing and I will gladly sing your praises for years to come
Great venue for baby shower hosted by a couple
The Drexelbrook did an excellent job hosting our baby shower. Their buffet and dessert bar options were delicious and plentiful.They took good care of our guests who needed vegan, gluten-free options or a kid's meal.One of the highlights of our celebration was a "make your own bouquet" bar for guests. It was an option that Drexelbrook suggested, based on our shower theme. They worked with us to ensure that we could decorate and arrange the space to meet the needs of our event. There is plenty of free parking on site.

Amazing experience!
The Drexelbrook was absolutely amazing! We worked with Sydney and Jeannie, and they made our wedding day better than we could have ever imagined. They were always willing to accommodate any request we had and were incredibly attentive to detail. The food and drinks were excellent. We are so happy we chose a full-service wedding venue like The Drexelbrook for our big day. They even packed up our leftover food and wedding cake at the end of the night. 10/10 would recommend!
Response from vendor•Jul 16, 2024Thank you, Nicolle, for the Great Review! It was an absolute pleasure to work with both you and Miles on your big day. What a beautiful couple. Wishing you nothing but happiness. Cheers to Mr. & Mrs. Robinson! - Jean & Sydney
