Best Wedding Venue on the water


We got married at the Corinthian Yacht Club this past June and it was absolutely spectacular! We absolutely loved this venue! We were searching for a venue that was entirely on the water but intimate as well and this was the only one we came across. I strongly believe you won’t find anything like it. All of our guests were blown away. The mansion itself is so beautiful and there are a million spots to take amazing photos. We loved this venue and had no regrets. Meg the event coordinator was super friendly ,very responsive ,and was there to help with every detail! She & her staff were an absolute delight to work with! It took away so much stress knowing they had everything under control. I can’t begin to describe how accommodating they were. We were thrilled with our choice to go with The Corinthian Yacht Club of Philadelphia. Definitely book this place for your wedding you won't regret it! I’d give them 10 stars if I could!

Wedding on May 29th

My wedding was at the Corinthian Yacht Club on May 29, 2021. Cannot rave enough about the venue (spectacular views), food was delicious and best of all dealing with Danielle who was professional but friendly and down to earth and was diligent with answering all my questions and taking care of every detail promptly. Jim and I are very happy we chose the Corinthian Yacht Club for our wedding. Highly recommend!
