Yes and Yes! St. Edmond's Church has a parking lot on site, and there will be complimentary parking at the Ballroom at the Ben. (The parking lot is directly across the street from the main entrance on 9th street in between Sansom and Chestnut Streets.)
We ask that guests are seated at St. Edmond's Church 15 minutes prior to the 3:00 PM start time.
Nope! Our whole day together will take place within the comfort of an air conditioned setting!
Black tie optional! Tuxedos and gowns are welcome, but suits and cocktail dresses will do just fine as well!
Given the location of the Ballroom at the Ben, there is no shortage of options to pass the time! Guests staying at the Hotel Monaco can take advantage of the complimentary wine hour from 5:00-6:00 PM. There are also plenty of bars and restaurants in the neighborhood - check out our "Things To Do" page for some of our favorites! Additionally - if you are an out of town guest staying over, this would be a great time to check in to your hotel!
