You Will Be Amazed!

My husband and I had an exceptional experience with The Merion when we held our wedding reception here in April 2022. Our coordinator Calli did an outstanding job with making sure everything ran smoothly for our special day. The food, service, and amenities were all top notch. Over a year later, our friends and relatives still talk about the fantastic cuisine, the beautiful Skylight Ballroom, and all the fun. We had the perfect wedding reception thanks to The Merion and their amazing staff.

My perfect Wedding

Wow is all I can say about The Merion. I hired the Merion for my wedding and the way they coordinated everything was so professional and made my wedding planning process so stress free. I am so happy I decided to choose them as my venue. Literally nothing went wrong that day because of their professionalism. They gave me the option to use two ballrooms, one for my ceremony and the other for my reception. It made it so much easier for my vendors. Definitely consider The Merion for any big event that you are planning.

Best place to get married by a landslide

This is the best place to get married. My friends and family were blown away by the beauty, service, and food. I would highly recommend. Oh and I can go on ll day about their main representative Holly. My wedding was awesome because of her. I picked this place because of her warmth when I came for a tour as well. Do yourself a favor and have your wedding here!!

Always an Incredibly Spectacular Event hosted by The Most Professional Staff in the Tri-State Area !! Truly Magnificent Settings to be Photographed in. We are always excited to have the opportunity to be at The Fabulous Merion !!

The Merion is one of my most absolute favorite venues to photograph a wedding! Their Skylight Ballroom is magnificent, but every room has its own grandeur and style! The staff is super courteous and friendly -- not just to the bride and groom and their guests, but to the vendors (like me:) as well, and this is most appreciated! I always feel at home when I'm there for an event, and you will too! You cannot go wrong with The Merion. Fabulous food, fantastic staff, and photogenic grounds. What more could you ask for? Nothing! They are the best in the area!
