Highly Recommend!!!

My husband and I recently held our wedding reception at The Drexelbrook in the Grand Ballroom. I cannot begin to put into words how much of a positive experience we had with The Drexelbrook! Jean and Sydney made our experience so wonderful. They are professional, knowledgeable, helpful, and great with communication. From our first meeting together to tour the venue, they made us feel valued. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, spacious, and just met all of our needs and wants that we were searching for. We worked with Jean and Sydney for almost two years in planning the wedding. They answered my many questions promptly and clearly. We met with them several times to go over all of the details and reminded us of things we had not even thought of! They worked so hard to make sure our wedding day was everything we wanted it to be and I cannot thank them enough for all of their time and effort. All of The Drexelbrook staff was extremely helpful, friendly, and accommodating. Our guests were raving about the whole wedding and how great of a job the staff did in putting it all together. All of the food was delicious and they worked well with any guests with food allergies or dietary restrictions. The Drexelbrook exceeded my expectations and really went above and beyond to make our day special. I HIGHLY recommend using them for your wedding or other events!

A Perfect Wedding!

The Drexelbrook made our wedding day absolutely perfect. Not only is the food 100/10 (it was a HUGE hit with our guests) but the service, flexibility, creative thinking & kindness of all the staff is amazing. We knew we wanted to work with the Drexelbrook when we got engaged back in the Summer of 2022, they were our first vendor booked. You cannot go wrong with The Drexelbrook!

Exceeded every expectation!

Our wedding reception was held in the Grand Ballroom at Drexelbrook. We worked with Anthony and Chrissy who made sure that not only would our expectations be met but exceeded. They answered every question we had (and there were ALOT). They helped us throughout the entire planning process. They took into account our personalities and vision of how we wanted the ballroom to look and feel with superior attention to detail. The entire evening was perfect. The staff was attentive to my husband and I all night and made sure we had everything we needed (and everything we didn’t know we needed). The food was amazing and our guests are still talking about it. you will not be disappointed when using The Drexelbrook for your special day!
