The Stroudmoor is a beautiful venue with the pituresque backdrop of rolling hills of Northern Pennsylvania. My wife and I settled on having our wedding at the Lawnhaven one of the multiple venue options at the Stroudmoor. Malia and her team made all of the prepartion and planning leading up to the wedding far less complicated than i thought it would be. Furthermore they continue to guide us through all the steps even working with us as we lived out of state. Honestly though, the WOW Factor didnt really sink in until the big day.

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!

From the moment we walked through the doors of The Drexelbrook, we knew our daughter’s wedding was in the very best hands. What unfolded on her wedding day was nothing short of extraordinary; an experience filled with elegance, warmth, and absolute perfection. The staff was truly amazing! They were attentive, professional, and genuinely invested in making the day flawless. The food was incredible, exceeding every expectation, and the convenience of having the venue, hotel, and after-party all in one location was such a gift to our guests. The attached bar and restaurant allowed family and friends to arrive early and comfortably socialize before the celebration began, creating a relaxed and joyful atmosphere from the start. The outdoor setting provided stunning photo opportunities that we will treasure forever. Every single staff member went above and beyond, but we are especially grateful to Hannah, Kim, and Dom Savino. From our very first meeting through the wedding day itself, they were exceptional. There truly are not enough words to thank them for their guidance, kindness, and attention to every detail. Everything was handled with such care and excellence. It was nothing but the best!

"We had our ceremony and reception at The Ardmore Music Hall July 2017 and would choose it all over again! Our guests rave to us still that it was the coolest and best wedding they have ever attended. We are owners of a party band that perform at reception venues all over the tri-state area and we chose AMH because we wanted to marry on stage in a fun, relaxed, and unique environment. The staff could not have been more service-oriented from preplanning meetings up to and including servicing the guests. We have many compliments for the manager Sara for allowing us to decorate as we wanted, making "themed cocktail drinks", coordinating the rest of the very friendly staff and for going above and beyond etc.. We had many bands play throughout the evening and all of the musicians were impressed with the sound crew at AMH, they were absolutely perfectionists with the sound and lighting! Most compliments that we received were that it was such a warm, cool vibe, filled with love throughout the event....exactly what we hoped for. "

We had our winter wedding at the Philadelphia Horticulture Center at Fairmount Park, and I truly cannot say enough amazing things about this venue. Olivia and her team made it pure magic from start to finish. The space is absolutely stunning — even in the winter, it feels like you’re stepping into a romantic garden oasis. The greenery, natural light, and elegant greenhouse vibe create the perfect mix of cozy and breathtaking, and our guests could not stop talking about how unique and beautiful it was and how good the food and cocktails were. The setting is naturally gorgeous, which made our photos look like something out of a magazine.

The winter atmosphere made it even more special: romantic, glowing, and timeless.
