Talamore Country Club was great for our wedding in May 2023! The grounds are beautiful and we got great photos around them and in the club. The ballroom is beautiful with its high ceilings and grand staircase. The space is large and it fit our 138 guests quite comfortably. Karen was great to work with and answered my many questions via email and in person. The food was delicious as well and my guests could not stop talking about the cocktail hour! The mashed potato bar was a hit and I highly recommend choosing that as one of the stations. Can't recommend Talamore enough and I wish I could get married there all over again!

We had the pleasure of having our wedding at Talamore Country Club! It was beautiful, unique and truly perfect for my husband and I. We loved the elegant details throughout the property. Mark and the staff were top notch from the first tour to the end of our night. Mark was so outgoing and personable and a pleasure to work with! He was also very flexible and responsive with regards to scheduling venue visits and kept us informed of upcoming \"due dates\" for certain decisions to be made regarding layouts and decorations which really helped our day go smoothly! And of course nothing was set in stone.....last minute decisions or changes were not a problem and they wanted our day to be exactly how we wanted it and were willing to make anything we needed to happen, happen! The venue is beyond beautiful. All our guest raved about our stunning venue, the delicious food, and the kind and amazing staff!

Kelly McGinley(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-06-2021 Talamore CC was the best venue choice for my husband and I. We live in Bucks County, and a lot of venues in our area (and Philadelphia area) are extremely overpriced and you get paid little attention. Talamore is AMAZING! Karen was our coordinator and Roni helped us as well the day of the wedding, and they did not disappoint. Karen was so responsive for every silly question I had (and I had many!!) especially during the pandemic. Karen makes every decision so easy for you and really supports you through every step of the process. Planning a wedding did not feel stressful like a lot of people tell you because I had the best venue! The venue itself is absolutely stunning inside and out, and they also made recent renovations so it's even more beautiful than it was when we initially booked. The day of the wedding they take all the stress or anxiety you may have away because they do everything for you!! Roni even helped me change my shoes after the ceremony! The food is served hot and tastes incredible, the bartenders make amazing drinks and are fast, and everyone who works there is kind, helpful and knowledgeable! My wedding day started off as any bride wants it to, with pouring, sideways rain... and Karen let me wait until the last minute to make a decision for an indoor/outdoor ceremony. The rain stopped just in time for an outdoor ceremony, and they rest was history!! We had our ceremony in June and let me tell you, the property is just breathtaking. We also saw the venue in the fall when we initially chose Talamore, and it was beautiful then too!!

I told myself I didn't want a country club wedding but would look anyway. We immediately fell in love!!! It is classy and spacious. The ballroom is stunning. The natural light was perfect for our brunch wedding. We even took photos out on the tennis court! Mark McCool was so patient with my many emails and requests. I also had an outside day-of-coordinator because I wanted certain vendors not part of the preferred list as well as help with timeline, design, etc. Mark McCool was so welcoming to working with her! If there was a problem at the wedding I definitely did not know about it thanks to him. They brought us mimosas to the bridal suite. Guests are still raving about the food - especially the whipped potato bar at cocktail hour! I loved that we also got to taste test food, a cake was included in our package from the amazing Bredenbecks. The list really goes on and on.

Chelsea McCabe(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-12-2018 We chose Talamore Country club as our wedding reception venue on December 7, 2018 – and we could not have made a better choice. My husband’s family were members of the club for a long time and knew the place inside and out. We had our cocktail hour on the second floor of the conservatory, and the dinner and dancing on the main floor. We did a buffet for dinner and had about 130 guests total. The initial planning process was fun, but a little scattered. A year out, our first planner gave us a tour of the facility, gave us recommendations for planning and helped us try and visualize what we want as far as décor. From that, we chose it as our venue and looked forward to the planning process. Our first planner got an opportunity outside of Talamore, so then we were paired up with Andrea – and we could not have been happier with her! We live in Florida, so my mother in law was such a huge help with communication and site visits throughout the year long process. Andrea and her clicked instantly, and we knew we were going to be well taken care of. On the big day, Andrea was so attentive and caring – she would have done anything we asked for. However, she was so good that we did not have to ask for anything on that day – she had everything covered. She’s a very sweet person, and amazing at her job. We want to thank Talamore for pairing her up with us because we could not have been happier with her. The food, the décor, the set up was perfect and we are so grateful to the Talamore team. I would recommend them to anyone as a wedding reception venue, and I have seen pictures of their ceremony set-ups – and those look beautiful as well. Thank you! Reviewed on 10-01-2019

Yes, 305. Each guest has since raved about the venue, and the food. The service was impeccable and most importantly Joe and I, along with our families had the time of our lives. We were able to choose multiple entrees, offered bottles beer instead of draft, had fantastic appetizers, and the venue looked spectacular. I went to a wedding here when I was 19, and knew I wanted to have my future wedding here, because it is amazing. Karen gave me huge pointers along the way, and really become a close friend during what can be a stressful time. She even let us come in and do our first look at the venue, way before the reception started. If you are looking for a wedding with a very elegant feel, amazing food, a huge dance floor, a mezzanine, or amazing coordinators...look no further! We would do it over and over again if we could!

She is a special person working at a special place, which made the experience an unforgettable one.I'd argue the food at Talamore is the best around, the staff is the most helpful, the venue is the most beautiful, and the entrance down the staircase is THE single-best reception entrance for a wedding party/couple in Philadelphia.The patio for Happy Hour is awesome for guests, and I had people all night complimenting us on the venue and specifically that cocktail hour was the best one they've been to, for the combination of food quality, bar/butler service, and the VIEWS.Our wedding day was amazing, and we couldn't be more appreciative to Andrea Bradley and the Talamore staff for making it a special day and experience.

Lauren Scott(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 20-10-2018 My husband and I both agree that we honestly couldn't have picked a better venue for our wedding. Early in our planning we had to cross off numerous venues from our list for various reasons and had to start over from scratch. A Google search led me to find Talamore Country Club. From the beginning we said we really didn't want to have our wedding at a hotel or a country club, but there was something about the photos on their webpage (particularly the ones of the beautiful brick courtyard) that lead us to book an appointment to meet with them. We ended up visiting on a dreary, rainy day...and even on a dreary, rainy day we absolutely fell in love with the place.We worked with Mark McCool through the planning process and he was really wonderful to work with. He was great about answering all of our questions (oh, and there were a lot of them!) in a timely manner and was a huge help with the overall planning process, giving us advice and tips that proved to be exceptionally helpful. We also loved how flexible he was with our planning (if we needed to change something, move something to a different room, change something on the menu, etc, he did everything to accommodate!) We also appreciate that we never felt pressured into anything.The wedding day itself was wonderful. All of the staff at Talamore were great (I lost count of the number of staff members who wished us \"congratulations!\") and everyone (especially Mark and my bridal attendant Krista) were quick to make sure we got anything we needed. And oh, the food! The FOOD! We did a brunch wedding, so we had a nice mix of breakfast and lunch items and so many of our guests were raving about the food even days later.

The day of the wedding, there was not ONE glitch. The food was delicious. We had the chicken champignon and the beef wellington. I am still getting compliments on the food. Not to mention how beautiful their outside is and even the ballroom. My pictures came out even more amazing because of that! We also added the Philly Station as a late-night snack, which was a huge hit. The night before the wedding, we were allowed to come over and bring over all of our decorations, and actually set most of it up. This helped with cutting down the time needed for that on the actual wedding day.

Mariel Nigro(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 28-07-2018 From start to finish, it is Talamore's goal to ensure that your wedding day goes as perfectly as you have imagined it! Our wedding coordinator was Mark, who will review and repeat all details (both large and small) as many times as you need. Mark toured the facility with my parents and I in the winter and gave recommendations based on his decades of experience. He shared pictures to show what we could expect to see in bloom for our summer wedding. Then when I took my fiancé back, Mark repeated the process! The food tasting was lovely! There were so many options, and it was like being out for dinner; the staff is helpful, courteous, and allows you to take your time with each course. The day of our wedding, the facility was decorated exactly as envisioned! We were able to sneak a peek during some downtime prior to guests arriving. While my husband and I took pictures, our guests enjoyed a signature drink that they raved about, and a plentiful assortment of hot/cold hors d'oeuvres. The grounds are nothing short of spectacular in the summer, from the wooden bridge to the gazebo, to the beautiful hills of the golf course. Krista, our bridal attendant, inconspicuously aided Mark in overseeing the smooth running of our entire reception. Afterwards, they package all your personal items to be picked up later. We cannot say enough positive things about Talamore, the staff, and the wonderful experience we had! Thank you so much! Reviewed on 21-10-2018
Philip Coyne(groom)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-10-2018 The Talamore Country Club is a fantastic venue. During our research it was one of the only venues that offered that option to bring in your own caterer and use a different bakery than what they offered. Despite this, the menu Talamore offered was too enticing (and ended up being amazing), and the bakeries they partnered with ended up being excellent. The venue is beautiful, and the options offered are all fantastic. The vendors they've partnered with are all high-quality and flexible, which made the entire wedding planning process easier. Even more, our wedding coordinator, Andrea, was responsive and attentive to all our questions and needs. The wedding was perfect day of. Frankly speaking, I have no idea if there were any issues in the background. Food was perfect, set up was great, and the night was incredible. The only issue to highlight would be that our coordinator changed between our reservation (more than a year before our wedding date) and one of our payments. It wasn't until we reached out to Talamore that we started hearing more from them. We aren't sure if this is standard or not, and the great experience after that more than makes up for it. Ultimately, we would recommend the Talamore Country Club for anyone who intends to have a wedding in Pennsylvania. Reviewed on 21-10-2018

Karen did a great job from start to finish with everything and was very responsive to our questions and concerns. Krista stayed by my side and helped so much to make sure that I ate and had everything I needed! My only concern was that a staff member and golf member of the golf course were extremely rude to our photographer as well as my husband and I when we were taking photos on the bridge. Karen assured me that she would find out who they were and handle it and I believe she did. My advice to Talamore would be to keep the golfers and staff with golf carts away from people that are spending that much money to have special outdoor photos on those grounds. Other than that everything was what we hoped it would be! Thank you to the staff at Les Jardins/Talamore! Reviewed on 21-09-2018

Hunana C.(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-07-2018 Absolute fantastic experience at this club! Our event planner, Mark McCool, went above and beyond expectations to work with us on every aspect of the wedding. After having seen over a dozen other venues, we felt Talamore was the one for us not only because of its absolute beauty and sophistication, but because its staff was welcoming and just amazing to work with. This is especially true since our wedding was an ethic (Pakistani) wedding, so there were definitely some challenges, but which Mark took in stride and ironed out for us every single time. It's certainly true when they say that a party planner makes the wedding experience all the better, simply because you no longer have to deal with any hassle and can just enjoy your upcoming Big Day. And since the Talamore Country Club provides you with one of their experienced planners from the get-go, it's an all around win-win situation.In short, if you're looking for a beautiful venue with breathtaking views both inside and out, I couldn't recommend Talamore highly enough. It's been almost 3 months since our wedding and, even now, our wedding is the talk of many social gatherings among friends and family. This is all thanks to the great people at Talamore, most especially Mark. Thank you again for the wonderful memories!! Reviewed on 19-09-2018
Jaclyn Timko(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 21-07-2018 Our wedding at Talamore was absolutely perfect and everything we could have hoped for! My husband and I knew it was the venue for us the minute we walked in. The outside ceremony space in the gardens is beautiful. The inside ceremony space is just as beautiful with the elegant double staircase. We ended up taking advantage of the inside space because of the weather, which ended up being the best thing ever. It was truly a fairy tale entrance walking down the staircase and the aisle. It was perfect for our first look and our Beauty and The Beast entrance to the reception. The food was absolutely delicious as well! Guests were raving about the Crab Cakes and Beef Wellington. We also cannot thank our coordinator Karen enough for all the hard work she put in to making our day so special! She was kind, accommodating, and very knowledgeable! We were so confident and had no worries going into the day of wedding because of her expertise. She always made herself available and was quick to answer any questions we had. We also want to thank Krista, our bridal attendant, who stuck by our side all night making sure we always had a drink, were eating food, and had everything we needed. Karen, Krista, and the whole Talamore team were amazing! We are so happy we chose Talamore for our wedding!! Reviewed on 07-08-2018
Rahaf Sultan(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 20-07-2018 Our wedding at Talamore Country Club in Ambler, PA was everything we could have hoped for. From the beautiful Gardens to the grand staircase in the Conservatory reception hall, the venue itself was fantastic. There was plenty of space for all of our 265 guests and beautiful scenery for our wedding pictures. Mark McCool was a great host and helped us from the very beginning to make sure all of our needs were met. He helped ensure our table centerpieces were placed, arranged for us to have a rehearsal with use of the actual speakers/sound system to help us practice our wedding party entrances, and provided both the groomsmen and bridesmaids with separate private gathering rooms to use throughout the entirety of our wedding day. This was a big help as we had an Indian style ceremony in the early afternoon and a Western style reception later in the evening, so the rooms were necessary for us to get changed and take more pictures in. Mark kept in contact with us via email and phone over countless messages we sent him about every random detail that came to mind, and he definitely helped put us at ease and make sure our big day went smoothly. Furthermore, all the rest of the staff at Talamore that we encountered were incredibly nice and attentive. Everything went perfectly and we definitely recommend using Talamore for your big day!

Katie Kelly(bride)1 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-09-2019 I truly don't know where to begin. I had the worst experience with Talamore. The first tour my fiance and I took we immediately fell in-love with the venue. Little did we know, we were about to be misguided and given the wrong information from the start. We were told we would get a 10% discount if we booked so far out in advance and that we would be the only wedding the day that we chose. We then went back for a second tour with our parents and all the details we originally planned for were changed. We now couldn't have the 10% discount unless we booked 10 months or less from our wedding date and we now had to pay 6K extra to rent out the other ballroom to be the only wedding. This left a horrible taste in our mouths and knew things were only going to get worse with this place. Although the grounds and the Ballroom were gorgeous, I would not recommend Talamore. I am glad this horrible experience happened to us because we eventually found our perfect venue and coordinator who knew what they were doing and wouldn't go back on their word.

She made sure all of our questions were answered, every concern was addressed, and everything was perfect from day 1. On the day of, Karen and two other ladies (I apologize for forgetting their names) made sure we had anything we could possibly need. All 3 were calming presences, just in case. Two really sweet things: Pre-ceremony, Karen was lovely and reminded us all to breathe and directed the timing of the walk down the aisle and, then, post-ceremony, she and the bridal attendant stood at the top of the aisle as my husband and I exited and handed us each a glass of champagne with a wish of congratulations. The bridal attendant walked with us to let us know we had food in the bridal suite and asked if we wanted a glass of our signature drink. Furthermore, the food was perfect, the servers were lovely, and the bartenders were delightful. To top it off, the Conservatory Ballroom was breathtaking. It was large, but felt intimate and the views from the first and second floors were absolutely gorgeous. After the reception, we didn't feel rushed to leave and Karen, of course, offered to help carry things out for us. All in all, I could not have asked for a more perfect venue. Reviewed on 28-11-2017

My husband and I attended a wedding reception at Talamore a couple of weekends ago. This was the fourth wedding we went to this year alone, (countless together probably due to our enormous family), and I can undoubtedly say that it has been our favorite. The venue is extraordinarily beautiful! Upon exiting the parking lot to enter the building through the main entrance, you are greeted by a bubbling fountain in a quaint courtyard. In retrospect I realized how quiet and serene this location is despite being located just off of Welsh Rd. Someone was waiting at the door to greet us and escort us to our event. It appeared as though other events were taking place and I thought this to be a nice, convenient, and personal touch. Our event was in their grand ballroom and it was breathtaking! Giant windows let the last bit of sunlight of the day pour onto a large marble floor in the center of the room, directly in front of a staircase that split to allow two points of access to the upper level. The service matched if not exceeded the beauty of Talamore. The servers were efficient, non-invasive, and seemed to be there any time I needed them. The food was absolutely incredible! From the cocktail hour to the entrees everything was tremendous! I would highly recommend Talamore to anyone who is looking for a wedding venue, as for my husband and I we are seriously considering the site for our Wedding!!! Reviewed on 31-10-2016

Karen was amazingly helpful with every part of the wedding planning processing. Their preferred vendors list is top notch! Our guests were raving about the food, and how amazing the setup and the venue was. My husband and I could not be happier with how our big day turned out! Reviewed on 13-07-2015
Jocelyn Lomas(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 22-05-2015 We had our wedding reception at Talamore on 5/22/15, and it was absolutely perfect! We worked with Mark, who made sure each detail of our evening was exactly as we wanted. We started with cocktail hour in the garden room/patio and then dinner and dancing in the main ballroom. We then finished up with cake/coffee in the sitting room between the two. We received so many compliments from our guests about the space. The staff were very friendly, especially the servers. Everything was beautiful. It was also great to have the gardens for photographs before the reception. An extra added bonus was the bridal party suite where we could keep our things and freshen up throughout the evening. The food for both cocktail hour and dinner was delicious! Our guests were (and still are) raving about it. Reviewed on 14-06-2015

Amanda Minarczyk(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 19-12-2014 Talamore was the perfect place for our romantic, warm, winter wedding. The ballroom looked absolutely enchanting with amber lighting and white Christmas lights hung all around. Guests raved about the food from the mini grilled cheese and tomato soup at cocktail hour to the steaks at dinner to the cake for dessert! The bartenders were superb and poured excellent cocktails all night! The maître d I was appointed to for the night was adorable, pleasant and at all times three feet away from me to get whatever I needed. The staff at Talamore are exceptional to work with - especially Mark McCool! He was so patient with my 10,000 questions, prompt with every response, and worked hard to accommodate any request I had! I absolutely loved working with him. Talamore, thank you for making our wedding everything I ever dreamed of and more! We are forever thankful! Reviewed on 24-12-2014
Katie news(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 22-08-2014 I recently got married at Talamore on August 22, 2014 and have nothing but wonderful things to say! Not only did they do a wonderful job setting up the room/cocktail hour but the service was great as well. Our coordinator Mark was there the entire night making sure everything went smoothly. We had a bridal attendant with us as well who made sure we had plenty to eat & drink during the night, every time we turned around she was already two steps ahead of us. Every guest at our wedding had nothing but wonderful things to say about this venue. It is a beautiful property, great food and excellent people to work with. Mark was so calm the entire time we were planning because he knows what he is doing! They made our wedding day unforgettable and we never had anything to worry about! Definitely a venue all brides should check out before making their final selection. Reviewed on 13-10-2014

Our experience with Talamore was nothing short of perfect. From start to finish, Mark McCool helped us plan an amazing wedding. We were lucky to snag one of their Value dates, which was a perfect date for us and we were able to take advantage of the extras they threw in for booking less than a year in advance.\r\rThe food was impeccable and we used Bredenbeck's bakery through them for our wedding cake. They were able to accommodate my shellfish allergy with ease as well as guests with dietary restrictions. \r\rThe planning was super easy with Mark's assistance and the day-off staff was totally on the ball. The day itself was executed with perfection, from our arrival, pictures on the beautiful grounds, to the ceremony and the reception itself. \r\rThe bridal attendant Christa was wonderful, making sure my bridal party and parents were taken care of before the ceremony and during cocktail hour and the reception. We found out after the fact that it was her first solo wedding! We could never have guessed. Talamore obviously hires the best and trains their staff superbly. \r\rWe had more people comment on how gorgeous the venue was, how amazing the food was, and someone even wondered how much we could have spent on this amazing place! The truth was, it fell right into our budget and they worked so hard to make our day as true to us as possible. They were able to customize everything to make our day perfect. Reviewed on 12-09-2014
Christina Fragnito(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 09-08-2014 Talamore Country Club and specifically Mark McCool were simply spectacular for our wedding reception!! From the first day we met with Mark to look at the possibility of booking Talamore, he was kind, welcoming, and very accommodating. He answered every single question (and I ask alot!) with patience and responded to ALL of my emails very quickly. The food is OUTSTANDING and the grounds are stunning! The bridal attendant they had (Jackie) was AMAZING, so helpful and even made sure I sat down to eat my dinner :) Every single person there is so helpful, kind, and super accommodating to whatever you need. They made my wedding reception beautiful, right down to the last detail and everything was so absolutely perfect. I can't thank them enough for everything they did for me and my husband!

Irene Politi(wedding party)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-08-2014 We've looked at so many venues in Southern NJ and Center City Philly... We were instantly drawn to Talamore... The Grounds were absolutely beautiful and that is exactly what we wanted for an outside ceremony... we didn't want to be stuck in one building all night.. We crossed our fingers for a year hoping to have beautiful weather on Aug 15, 2014 and we sure got what we wanted...Talamore not only had beautiful grounds but amazing service and food... The ballroom was just breathtaking !! I do recommend hiring lighting specialists to ensure you have a nice lit up dance floor at night.. \r\rKaren, Talamore's coordinator will work her butt off to make sure you are completely 100% satisfied and she is very honest and works very hard at making sure her customers are walking away with what they wanted... She impressed us and did an outstanding job helping us get through our day by doing exactly what she promised to do for us in the beginning.. She is also a sweetheart and a very easygoing person to work with, she doesn't beat around the bush and she becomes like family in the whole wedding process/planning... She impressed us from the very beginning, and trust me, we've met a lot of coordinators and no one was as professional and sweet as her!\r\rThe food was amazing... The cocktail hour was more then I ever wanted to have.. We did get the Superior package so we definitely got what we paid for ! :) Our guests were impressed ! \r\rThe service was amazing, all white glove.. some glasses were broken by some of our bridal party, the staff was right there cleaning it up to ensure no one gets hurt stepping on it while dancing.. \r\rJackie was at my beck and call making sure I had everything that I needed on my plate, table, and passed around a box of tissues every time I would shed a happy tear of joy :) \r\rIf you are looking for an outdoor ceremony, def check out Talamore.... And even if you are just looking for a sophisticated looking wedding venue.. this is your spot.. impeccable maintained grounds, 'Princeton-Like Country club'... it's just perfect... \r\r\r\r Reviewed on 24-08-2014

Brenna Pellegrini(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-12-2013 I had a lovely wedding at the Talamore. We spent much time planning and working on every detail with them and they happily accommodated me. Unlike many venues I interviewed, Talamore and their coordinator Mark, was more than willing to work with my special requests on food, alcohol, and even long dining tables for my guests (this was the first time they ever did that!). I was happily surprised when I entered the reception to find most details worked out perfectly. My guests were treated to a top-of-the-line affair at a reasonable price for the greater Philadelphia area. I recommend the Talamore for any couple looking to celebrate their big day.

We felt completely comfortable with her from the beginning, and she guided us through the whole process with amazing attention to detail. The venue itself is beautiful, and the grounds are well-maintained, so it made for great photos with the bridal party. The food was incredible! People still tell us months later how good the food was at our wedding. We were able to add some late night snacks, which were a big hit after a lot of dancing. \r\rEarly in the planning, Karen said that she had handled many calls from frantic brides leading up to the wedding day. I never thought it would be me, but it was. Karen and her team at Talamore were beyond amazing. She managed last minute requests, and we had a couple other minor crises which were handled with such grace that no one knew anything about it. Karen was orchestrated the day so that we had nothing to worry about. Talamore's location, atmosphere, food, and people were top notch! Reviewed on 13-11-2013

The two story room had quite a wow factor, as did the giant staircase leading into the ballroom. Perfect for introductions. Our server/coordinator, Danielle, did a great job tending to our every need! She helped things go absolutely flawlessly! My only complaint was that their event coordinator, Mark McCool, was difficult to get in touch with. I often had to send several emails before getting a response. Several times, I had to have my fiance call him, because he wasn't responding to me.\r\r\rThe price overall was reasonable, because we had a winter wedding. We got a few extra perks with their winter package, such as two rooms at Joseph Ambler Inn and a discount on our brunch the next day. In the end, we had a credit on our balance for the reception and were given a few extra hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour. Reviewed on 03-02-2013
