Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- This beloved Rittenhouse Square landmark and iconic performing arts center is a sparkling showcase of Philadelphia's vibrant culture... and a phenomenally flexible setting for celebrations of all kinds. Along with the passionate care of a full-service events and catering team, you'll find a range of spaces, from sleek, glass-walled plazas to luxurious private lounges to breezy urban patios.
- A dazzling glass roof and wraparound floor-to-ceiling windows define the sleek, rooftop Hamilton Garden, flooding the space with natural light during the day and inviting in the sparkling skyline and stars once night falls. For a touch of grandeur, opt to celebrate in the Perelman Theater, where you can say "I do" beneath dramatic theatrical lights. The Tier Two Lounge and balcony is a stylishly modern spot for cocktail hours and dinners, boasting sweeping views of Broad Street and City Hall.
- The experts at Events by RHC will take your gathering up a notch—the company has a reputation for crafting luxurious, exclusive, and bespoke gatherings across New York, Philly, and the Hamptons. Their cuisine is especially noteworthy, with a crew of executive chefs who draw inspiration from both global travels and local specialities in crafting their creative menus, with an emphasis on seasonality and local ingredients.
