The Reception Venue of our Dreams!

We fell in love with the Philadelphia Cricket Club when we first toured it, and we're so glad we chose it for our reception venue! The location is absolutely beautiful, and all the food options were delicious. Christine & Liz, who assisted on day of, were fabulous in making sure we followed our timeline and that everything ran smoothly. We truly could not say enough nice things about how great the venue and the staff were on our big day!

The BEST Venue!

We just held our wedding at the Philadelphia Cricket Club, and we are so incredibly happy that we chose this venue! We worked with Christine throughout the planning process, and she is beyond amazing; extremely responsive, helpful, flexible, knowledgable, and kind. The venue is absolutely stunning, with a ton of amazing spots to take stunning photos! One of the things my husband and I were most concerned about when looking at venues was the food and beverage packages; you get SO MUCH for your money with the packages here and everything is so incredible delicious! All of the staff is very well trained, and were wonderful with our guests. my bridesmaids and I also got ready at the venue and it was such a nice morning filled with attentive staff, a huge area to get ready, and amazing food and beverages! I truly could not imagine a better venue for our special day and would highly recommend the Philadelphia Cricket Club to others!

You will be AMAZED!

I could not recommend the Philadelphia Cricket Club more highly for a wedding! My husband and I both grew up in Philadelphia and when he first suggested this as a venue, I thought there was no way we could afford it. After researching several other venues, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that PCC had not only enough space for all of our guests, but the best value by far. We were thrilled to book. Unfortunately, COVID-19 had other plans, and we ended up having to change our wedding date twice. Taylor could not have been more helpful and attentive! Throughout the pandemic, we heard more than a few horror stories from friends about difficult venues and contracts that weren't honored. I'm happy to say that our experience at PCC could not have been more different. Taylor was with us every step of the way and was a total joy to work with. On the day of the wedding, I was made aware that there was a mistake on our invitations (which we had to re-print several times) and the correct reception start time was not stated. I was absolutely mortified, but Taylor and the rest of the staff at PCC were totally accommodating. From start to finish, our reception was dreamlike and we owe it all to Taylor (and Rebecca!) for being so prepared and dedicated. So many guests came up to me both during and after the reception to say this was one of the finest weddings they had ever attended - and we got rave reviews about the food (definitely get Chef Ben's fried chicken - it was the hit of the night and I'm STILL getting compliments on it!).

Stunning venue with amazing staff - perfect experience!

Our wedding at PCC was nothing short of magical! Amy Wayland, PCC's Catering Sales Manager, was not only there for us before and throughout COVID, but went above and beyond for us in the months, weeks, and hours leading up to our date over two years, and was an amazing on-site coordinator on the day itself. She and her staff were very professional and so kind to us and our guests.
I grew up going to PCC and have many wonderful and irreplaceable memories there, plus my parents got married there in 1990, so I was naturally thrilled when my fiance told me in 2019 that PCC was his favorite venue of all the ones we had looked at throughout NJ and PA. The architecture, landscaping and space itself was STUNNING, and gave us truly that "garden wedding" feel that we were going for. The ballroom was recently given a facelift, while preserving the beauty of its original barrel ceiling and balcony. We had our ceremony outside on the patio next to the grass tennis courts, an indoor/outdoor cocktail hour in nearly the same space, so we could take our portraits surrounded by our guests, and reception just one door away in the ballroom.
Even with one of our family's shuttles being 45 min late, Amy and the PCC staff ensured our guests were taken care of in the July heat, and kept the entire night on schedule!
I can't say enough about PCC, and highly HIGHLY recommend you put them on your short list for your big day!!

Flexible, beautiful, Smooth postponed wedding

Our wedding at the Philadelphia Cricket Club was a dream come true! Truly, after not one, but TWO postponements, we were finally able to have the wedding we had been planning for three years. Despite this, everything went as smoothly and as lovely as we could hope for. Amy stuck by our sides during the two postponements- was available for discussing options, responded to questions in a timely manner, and was always willing to hop on the phone when necessary. We could not have done this without her, she truly is an "expert" in the field. Rebecca and Taylor were also so helpful and informative during our planning process. They were flexible with moving the dates and didn't up-charge us in the new year. Given covid was on the rise again, they let us make last minute deletions and additions to the guest list as necessary.

Our guests were incredibly impressed with the food, the set up and the coordination of the events at our PCC wedding. They loved the cheesesteaks at the end of the night. We even had to move the ceremony inside due to the heat wave and this was done ever so smoothly.

We cannot express enough how thankful we are for choosing to have our wedding at PCC. Three words that come to mind for the coordinators are flexible, supportive, and responsive. And the venue speaks for itself in regards to class and beauty. Food was one of a kind, fun, and delicious.

Breathtakingly beautiful venue, wonderful experience at the PCC

My husband and I had our vow renewal this past weekend and wow — I don’t have the proper words to describe our experience with the PCC! We had to postpone our wedding because of covid and Amy went above and beyond to meet our needs. She is incredible at her job and made our wedding an absolute dream. The venue is gorgeous and the staff is wonderful. Thank you for creating an experience we will always remember.

Perfect Wedding at the Philadelphia Cricket Club!

We could not have asked for a better wedding planning experience – our wedding day was absolutely perfect at the Philadelphia Cricket Club! From the beginning, Taylor made sure we had all the details to plan the perfect day, and she answered our millions of questions with ease. We then had to reschedule our March wedding date because of COVID, and we were extremely impressed by the support and understanding from the Cricket Club. They easily accommodated a much smaller number of guests and provided us with several options to make our wedding everything we wanted, even getting a tent last minute. They alleviated so much of the stress in planning a (small) wedding during a pandemic, and we are so grateful to the Philadelphia Cricket Club. Our family and friends raved over the venue and the amazing food (especially the friend chicken!). The staff were so friendly and professional during dinner, they even brought us covers to keep our food warm while we took a few more pictures. Their attention to detail was incredible, they were wonderful to work with during the crazy planning process, so we made the best decision by having our wedding at the Philadelphia Cricket Club.

Beautiful Venue and Amazing to Work With!

The Philadelphia Cricket Club was an excellent venue for my wedding day from start to finish! They were extremely accommodating when we had to move our wedding from April 2020 to August 2020 due to COVID. I worked with Taylor for the majority of the wedding planning and she is phenomenal! I was emailing her weekly and daily towards the end of wedding planning and she was endlessly patient and informative. She helped us figure out Plan B's, C's, even D's (just in case), she kept us updated on any available dates, Philadelphia guidelines during COVID, and just in general made the wedding planning process during a pandemic extremely smooth. We ended up having a 50-person outdoor event and Taylor made sure everything was still beautiful, organized and seamless for our guests. We had hoped to use the ballroom, but it ended up being even more beautiful and unique on the back patio. We even had some rain and Taylor and the PCC staff acted quickly, making sure the sides of the tent were closed (but still partially open due to COVID) so that no one got wet and there were minimal puddles. It was little touches that you don’t think about going into your wedding day but Taylor was ready for all scenarios. I didn’t have a wedding planner but Taylor filled in the gaps that day, making sure everything was set up and kept the schedule of events flowing nicely throughout the evening. The Philly Cricket Club exceeded my expectations, working with Taylor was awesome, the venue itself was beautiful and classic, the pictures came out amazing and our guests had a great time! On top of everything else, the food was delicious! Chef Ben’s fried chicken was a crowd favorite. I can’t say enough good things about PCC and Taylor – we felt so lucky to be working with such a helpful venue for our wedding during this stressful time! Thank you!!

Wedding of our dreams at the Philadelphia Cricket Club!

My husband and I had our wedding reception at the Philadelphia Cricket Club in November 2019. We could not have been happier with our day! We worked with Amy who was so helpful, professional, and made sure our day was exactly what we wanted. She was so easy to work with leading up to the event and on the day of our wedding. Everything we discussed and requested prior to our day came to life and was set-up and ready to go when we arrived for our reception.

The grounds, cocktail room, and ballroom are absolutely beautiful. There is an area to have part of your cocktail hour outside too, however it was really cold the day of our wedding so we were all inside and fit great. There is so much character in the building and inside which gave us so many great areas to have our photos taken. The ballroom itself is gorgeous and has big windows, a balcony, high ceilings, and an area for the band/DJ to play that does not take away space on the dance floor. We fell in love with the room. It is so different than so many other venues that make you feel like you're just in a hall.

The food was delicious (we served the steak and chicken breast) and we heard great feedback from our guests on their appetizers and meals as well. The bartenders and staff were very friendly and pleasant. The bartenders kept the bar line moving too. The price here is so much more reasonable than other places we looked at and what is included for the price is absolutely worth it. We had the best day of our lives and could not have imagined having our wedding reception anywhere else!
