Hi Ladies! I was recently introduced to the idea of a cocktail wedding reception and the pros of it seem to fit what would work best for me and my FI and our families. My question is are there any venues in philadelphia who offer this option as oppose to the traditional sit-down dinners? I dont plan to have the ceremony there only the reception. budget is about 120 pp for 130 ppl. Thanks!

One of the families I babysit, the parents got married at the Penns Landing Hyatt about 4 years ago and had a cocktail reception with appetizers, drinks and desserts, etc. They absolutely loved it and they said the view of the river was stunning. I'm not sure what they payed, but I don't think it was more than $120 a person.

Yes there are tons of places in Philly for that...art galleries, restuarants. And Penns Landing like the PP suggested is really nice. You could look at places like the Moshulu and the Spirit of Philadelphia too

TryTRUST or the Archeology Museum at Penn if you don't want a traditional ballroom.
