This was the BEST place ever! I have been to a lot of weddings, and this venue outdid themselves. Jean and Sydney took care of everything. Throughout the year before my wedding, I had a lot of questions. When I emailed them, they emailed or called me back right away. The food was delicious. The place is absolutely beautiful. They literally took care of everything and made our guests so happy. They gave us a lot of complimentary stuff including the table centerpieces and the wedding cake. They put my husband and I in a suite in the attached hotel for free. The suite was beautiful. It had a kitchen, living room, dining room, and a bedroom. There were also 2 bathrooms. They also gave us complimentary wine in our room. I cannot say one bad thing about this place. We had a truly amazing and magical day. ALL the staff took care of us so well. I wish we could do it all again. Trust me, you will not go wrong with this venue.

I got married at Franklin Commons 12/30/22 and it was the most magical day. The Drexelbrook team was a DREAM to work with. Kim executed everything flawlessly and Hannah was also such a big help in the months leading up. They made everything very easy for me and made my big day very special.

Ceremony, Reception, After Party, hotel accommodations and Farewell brunch .Food was amazing, cake included. You get to have taste cake from 2 different vendors. We went with Bredenbecks which was delicious The Staff is amazing. Christina is a Super Star. She made things so smooth before, during and after the wedding. She is a pleasure to work with.The wedding day staff were fantastic. Bartenders and servers were so professional.Food was delicious and everyone keeps taking about it.

Just coming down from cloud 9 after hosting our daughter's wedding in the Mansion at the Drexelbrook. Everything went smoothly, thanks to Kim, Hannah and Domenick. They graciously accommodated every wish, even when we told them we wanted the bridesmaids to carry rescue puppies instead of flowers!! The service and food were excellent, with tons of plant-based options so that everyone felt well fed and loved, from cocktail hour to dinner and even dessert! Perhaps the best part was staying onsite at the Holiday Inn all weekend. We were able to host our rehearsal dinner on Friday night, have a fun glam party the morning of the wedding in our suite, host an after party after the wedding, and a farewell brunch on Sunday morning.....all without ever leaving the property!

The absolute best of the best! My husband and I got married here at the beginning of October and were simply blown away by how amazing our experience was. The Drexelbrook went above and beyond every step of the way- from connecting us with all of our incredible vendors, to providing us with the best food and service we've ever had, and simply being open to all of our ideas (like having puppies at our wedding!) The Drexelbrook also catered my bridal shower, and were able to accommodate a host of dietary preferences by providing vegan and gluten free options. We look forward to a lifetime of celebrations with the Drexelbrook team!

My wife and I got married at the end of September and had our reception at the Drexelbrook. We only went to see 2 venues because we knew shortly after our first visit that the Drexelbrook was going to be our choice. The venue is beautiful, spacious (which was a huge deciding factor for us – nobody likes a crowded cocktail hour), and the parking and hotel couldn’t be more convenient for people travelling.Jean Fernandez & Sydney Kuhn were our main points of contact; they made the entire process, from beginning to end, easy and stress free. They were available and responsive at all times of day and scheduled appointments as the big day got closer to make sure everything was in order and accurate. Wedding day was perfect. The food and drinks were awesome, and the staff was even better. My wife and I didn’t make it to cocktail hour because of pictures, but they had someone bringing us hors d'oeuvres outside! They truly went above and beyond to get us anything we needed without even having to ask. I didn’t eat any of the street tacos, but I heard they were amazing! We had braised short rib and Tuscan chicken as our entrees, and both were delicious. The waffles and ice cream for desert was also a hit. Our party favor was a beer (IPA) brewed for us by our favorite brewery, and Jean made sure that all 10 cases stayed cold (this was very important for me) and put them out on the bar and the end of the party for everyone to take! It’s the little things!My wife and I wished we could be guests at our own wedding. We would absolutely recommend the Drexelbrook to anyone planning weddings or large events. 5 stars!

I think I may have emailed him every single day in the few months leading up to the wedding with questions and concerns. Anthony always got back to me as soon as possible and never seemed bothered by how many questions I had. He really made the whole process easy and stress free. They are very organized and have a great team to make your special day go smoothly. We also briefly interacted with Dale and Melissa on the day of, and they were absolutely fantastic.

My husband and I had our postponed reception (thanks to Covid) and also a vow renewal and cocktail hour at Drexelbrook on 9/25/2021. It was just a few days after our first anniversary. While we never would have wished for our original plans to be impacted, we ended up having such an amazing day with probably less nerves/stress since we were already married. We started working with Drexelbrook (specifically Kim Savino) in August 2019 after we got engaged - and we continued working on our plans for over 2+ years. Due to the pandemic, we had to adjust our date and make many other changes along the way. And Drexelbrook couldn't have been more flexible and understanding. It definitely made a very stressful time a bit more manageable. Kim, and eventually Hannah and Jean (as we got closer to our date), were both so helpful in all aspects of the planning and final details. I would be remiss if I didn't mention our tasting, which was incredible! We got to bring our parents on both sides to the tasting, and the food was just all so delicious. As for our actual wedding celebration - everything went so, so well. We had a brief vow renewal in the North Ballroom, which was a perfect spot. Then, we had cocktail hour in the Grand Lobby. It's such an elegant space, and all of the appetizers and stations were incredible! We were able to bring in a musician to sing and play acoustic guitar for our brief ceremony and also cocktail hour, which gave a special touch. Our reception was perfect - all of our guests said how delicious the food was. And the portions! My husband had crab cakes and I had beef short rib - I have never seen such large portions at a wedding. The space itself is beautiful and modern. Very large dance floor, and the ballroom had more than enough room to accommodate our ~150 guests while still feeling very spacious - which was important since Covid is still very much here. All of the employees were so kind, helpful, and professional. Bill and Jason were our bridal captain team, and they kept us informed and happy throughout the evening. Once we walked into Drexelbrook that afternoon, we literally didn't feel like we had to worry about a thing - everything was in their very capable hands. Also, having a hotel onsite with the ability to hold an after party was huge! Overall, we can't recommend Drexelbrook enough. If you are looking for a place that makes the process easy (all-inclusive pricing, etc.) and also makes you feel like you're getting the value for the money you're spending - Drexelbrook is it. We had a really great experience all the way through. Thank you!

A HUGE thank you to Kim (our contact person) and the entire Drexelbrook team for providing our daughter, her new husband, and our guests with the most amazing, memorable, perfect wedding reception at the Franklin Commons. Kim is fantastic to work with, answering emails so quickly and offering her insights and knowledge to make the planning process go smoothly, even during a pandemic. A true professional. She’s just incredible and so sweet. Franklin Commons is so very different from any other venue that we had viewed and our guests LOVED how unique and open it was. Comprised of two separate spaces, it is a mix of industrial chic with exposed duct work, string lights, and high ceilings and a very comfortable, relaxing, warm feel with couches and conversation nooks! Our guests loved the opportunity to step away from the dance floor into the second room to catch up with relatives they hadn’t seen in a while or to pose for photos in front of the barn door. When the bridal party arrived through a separate side entrance, a selection of the 16 different appetizers (yes, 16!) and their requested cocktails awaited. Kim made sure everyone was fed and happy! She was so attentive and made everyone feel super special. The food was absolutely FANTASTIC! You will not find anywhere else that offers you 16 different passed appetizers and two live food stations as part of the standard package. We had the risotto bar and the tacos! The guests raved about each and loved how much food there was! We loved that cocktail hour could be outside but covered in case of weather. The salad and dinner entrees were excellent as well. So many guests commented how the braised short ribs melted in their mouths! And, the dessert station didn’t disappoint either. In addition to wedding cake, we had an ice cream bar. Again, all part of the standard package. We loved that we provided our own alcohol for the bar. It enabled us to purchase the wines, beer, and liquor brands that we knew our guests would enjoy. Franklin Commons is a special venue staffed by super people who attend to every detail, ensuring a memorable, relaxing event. The servers were so professional, polite, and always busy assisting guests. And, you get so much food for your dollar! No one will leave hungry. Do yourself a favor and check it out. You won’t be sorry. Our daughter told us at the end of the night…“Best Day Ever!” You can’t do any better than that. Thank you to Kim and the entire Drexelbrook staff. Special shout out to Domenic who attended to the bride and groom all evening, ensuring they both actually ate some dinner, stayed hydrated, and enjoyed themselves. What a successful evening in every respect!

Again, all part of the standard package. We loved that we provided our own alcohol for the bar. It enabled us to purchase the wines, beer, and liquor brands that we knew our guests would enjoy. Franklin Commons is a special venue staffed by super people who attend to every detail, ensuring a memorable, relaxing event. The servers were so professional, polite, and always busy assisting guests. And, you get so much food for your dollar! No one will leave hungry. Do yourself a favor and check it out. You won’t be sorry. Our daughter told us at the end of the night…“Best Day Ever!” You can’t do any better than that. Thank you to Kim and the entire Drexelbrook staff. Special shout out to Domenic who attended to the bride and groom all evening, ensuring they both actually ate some dinner, stayed hydrated, and enjoyed themselves. What a successful evening in every respect!

My wife and I cannot speak more highly of Kim Savino and the entire Drexelbrook team. Not only were they flexible through the pandemic, but were also quick with communication and provided step-by-step assistance with our wedding planning process. During the big day, we were treated like royalty. Staff made sure my wife and I always were receiving food and drinks (we couldn't forget to eat!), and were even greeted with champagne right after our ceremony. The Franklin Commons venue itself was beautiful and worked with us through our many changes and updates. It fit our 100 person wedding perfectly with room for everyone to dance, enjoy games outside, and find their own space to enjoy the wedding. Our guests have raved about the food, setting, and overall experience that was made possible by this great team! We could not recommend Franklin Commons and the Drexelbrook Catering team enough.

We had our wedding reception at the Drexelbrook and there are so many wonderful things we can say about it!Let’s start with the venue itself: gorgeous! The pictures we found online didn’t do it justice. It’s a beautiful, clean, and tastefully ornate facility. And it’s huge! During COVID, they were able to accommodate all of our guests (~200) comfortably and still follow state guidelines. The complimentary uplighting and table settings created a lovely ambience, and the layout was perfect. We had a live band who had plenty of space to work and the dance floor had ample space.Next, the food: delicious! Honestly, wedding food has no business being this good. The flavors were amazing, from the hors d'oeuvres and stations to the main courses (they even were able to accommodate a custom sea bass dish we requested!) to the desserts. We’re still dreaming about the stuffed chicken and strip steak. There are so many options and they were very accommodating with food allergies, preferences, and intolerances. It’s hard to go wrong with all the choices. Also, the staff went out of their way to ensure that we were adequately fed and had time to ourselves! We can’t begin to tell you how clutch that was.Then, the staff: helpful and accommodating! We had exactly 3 WEEKS to replan our reception as COVID forced the original reception out of Philadelphia, and everyone at the Drexelbrook did their best to make sure our “special day” was truly special. Christina, Anthony, Jeannie, and Bill hit the ground running and facilitated all of our last-minute needs. They responded quickly to our questions and didn’t balk at any reasonable requests. They had so many recommendations we didn’t even think of! They also worked so well with our vendors, making this as stress-free as possible!Lastly, the quick turnaround: wow! While Pennsylvania was easing many event restrictions in March of 2021, Philadelphia did not follow suit. Our original reception venue very graciously allowed us out of the commitment to their venue, so we had a few days to find something else. After being very impressed with a tour of the facility, we landed on the Drexelbrook and they got to work immediately. Months of planning was able to be condensed in a few weeks. Our guests universally loved the venue and were shocked that all of it could be done in such a short period of time!10/10 would recommend it for any event!

If you are looking for a beautiful, inclusive, and just down right spectacular wedding venue then look no further! Also if you want a professional team that makes all of your wedding dreams come true then just click on the link and call Kim. My husband and I had to choose a different venue 2-3 months before our wedding because of the COVID restrictions in Philadelphia at our original venue. And then when we had to push our date back because of COVID, Kim immediately came to the rescue to provide us with alternative dates. She always made herself available to us when something with another vendor (particularly our original florist) went wrong. We had our original florist (NOT through DREXELBROOK) ghost us 2 weeks before our new wedding date and Kim immediately got us in contact with their professional list of florists and we had a consultation and all of our stresses gone within a business day. Kim and the team at Drexelbrook truly made our wedding day the PERFECT day despite covid and the wedding planning hiccups. Our guests absolutely LOVED the food and the beautiful ballroom. All of the staff were professional and even made sure we ate during our big day. If you are looking for a beautiful ballroom and a professional and attentive staff during your wedding day, do yourself a favor and call KIM!!!

We booked our wedding for September 21st and the hotel at the time was not complete. They told us it would be complete before our wedding and all I can say is WOW. They really did such a beautiful job with the hotel. Very clean and the service was amazing. It was so convenient to have my family and friends stay at the hotel. Drexelbrook events did such an amazing job, I can’t express it enough. My wedding was perfect because of them and I wish I could do it all over again. They really took care of you and made sure you knew what was coming up next and knew what was going on. Fateema was assigned to me and she was awesome. She helped me with dress issues and she pulled through! Anthony was on top of everything. He knows his stuff. He is so friendly and very accommodating. Drexelbrook makes you feel like they really care and want you to have the best day of your life and it really shows because that’s exactly what happened. My wedding couldn’t have been any better and I am so thankful for their service.

Our wedding at the Drexelbrook in July exceeded our expectations by a long shot! It was absolutely perfect and looked like something out of a fairytale. They really went above and beyond to make sure every detail was taken care of. Jeannie was so easy to work with throughout the whole process and I highly recommend her to anyone considering this venue. So many couples complain about all of the work that goes into planning a wedding but drexelbrook made it a completely stress free experience. They take care of everything from the linens to the centerpieces to the fire pits and beyond. I’ve grown up going to many events at the drexelbrook so the thought of adding my wedding to that list was less than thrilling but after seeing all of the renovations I was blown away. Everything is brand new, the food was absolutely delicious, the cocktail hour had the best food and drinks I’ve ever seen, and the new hotel attached is BEAUTIFUL! We are still hearing from our friends and family how it was the best wedding they have ever been to! Also a big shoutout to Ray who made the day of events run smoothly and always made sure we were having a great time. This is a venue you definitely want to check out!

I had my wedding at Drexelbrook a little over a month ago and we had a fantastic time! From the start our wedding planner Jeannie was very organized and personable. Whenever we had questions she would answer our email within 24 hours. We had 2 or 3 meetings with her before hand and went over all the details well in advance! We had both our ceremony and reception at the venue! The night before we did our rehearsal and Jeannie did an amazing job going over everything and handled my HUGE bridal party with ease (we had 10 people on each side). The day of the wedding couldn't have gone any better! The ceremony was absolutely beautiful and all of our decorations were set up exactly how I wanted them ! We got to view the Grand Ballroom about 10 minutes before everyone was let in and we got to do a few shots with our photographer with the entire room behind us. The reception was done amazing and the food was phenomenal ! All of our guest said how amazing the food was! Our matradees Fatima and Dale were absolutely amazing and made sure we got everything we needed all night ! Overall our experience with Drexelbrook could not have gone any better! Thank you guys for making our Wedding a day we will never forget !

Great food, a well-stocked bar, and an elegant venue were really important to us when we chose a wedding venue. Drexelbrook is an all-inclusive venue that meets all 3 of those requirements. Their staff were professional and ensured that our event went smoothly; no hiccups whatsoever! Our guests raved about the cocktail hour and dinner food. Drexelbrook also offers a variety of delicious options for guests with dietary restrictions and are certified for gluten-intolerant guests. I was especially impressed with their vegetarian and vegan offerings. Since I don't eat meat, I often get vegetarian meals at weddings that aren't filling or aren't seasoned well. Drexelbrook's vegetarian and vegan offerings are so much better than most other venues' dinners that I've eaten. If you're looking for an elegant wedding venue with great food, an awesome bar, and professional staff at a reasonable price, look no further than Drexelbrook!

The wedding reception of our daughter and new son-in-law was so fabulous! Our coordinator, Jeannie, was a delight to work with throughout the whole process. She and her staff paid attention to every detail that we had discussed. The cocktail hour provided a perfect start to the evening. There was plenty of room for guests to mix and mingle in the Grand Lobby. In addition, we had beautiful weather, so the staff had set up a second bar on the new outdoor patio where our guests enjoyed comfortable seating around the firepits. The food stations and hand-passed hors d’oeuvres were all outstanding and enjoyed by all!The ballroom was stunning - so elegant, classy and spacious! The elevated sweetheart table was a special touch, as every guest could see the bride and groom and they had a full view of all the guests and activities below.The kitchen staff did an exceptional job with all the food - from the hors d’oeuvres to dinner and finally to the sweet endings offerings. We had some friends tell us they have been to eight weddings this year and this wedding was, by far, the best. All the guests raved about the food.When looking for a wedding venue in the Philadelphia area, our daughter and son-in-law were seeking a place with simple elegance that had good drinks and especially, great food, at a reasonable price. The Drexelbrook and staff delivered on all fronts! The Drexelbrook is currently building a hotel on site, that is expected to open sometime in 2018. We booked over 18 months ago and were then worried and disappointed to learn of the hotel construction and loss of the original patio we had loved. However, the Drexelbrook addressed all our concerns with the new replacement patio. Our guests never even realized there was construction in progress behind the beautiful ballroom. The Drexelbrook will be an even more fabulous venue once the hotel is completed!!Thank you to Jeannie and all the staff for such a memorable celebration!

We even had one dedicated employee, Diamond, just taking care of the bridal party, which was so helpful! My husband and I, and my bridal party, never had to go up to the bar, Diamond always brought us our drinks and made sure everything was perfect. They did an amazing job setting up the space for our wedding and it was better than I could have ever imagined! Thank you SO much Drexelbrook for making my wedding day so much fun and absolutely perfect!!

100 stars!!!!!!!!!!!! My experience was nothing short of amazing. The staff at Drexelbrook has been amazing since day one. I booked my wedding 18 months in advance and every encounter with the team at Drexelbrook has been beyond pleasant. The care and attention that is given to each bride is unmatched. The small touches, like the cookies at appointments is what made me fall in love with Drexelbrook. Not to mention my coordinator, Kim. Kim went above and beyond to help me execute my vision. When I showed up on the day of my wedding, I had multiple jaw dropping moments. The room looked amazing, everything was perfect! I was able to focus on my big day, as absolutely NOTHING went wrong. Ray was amazing. His personality kept me calm and he didn't miss a beat. I couldn't have asked for a better Day! It was truly a pleasure working with the team at Drexelbrook. I couldn't have asked for or even imagined a better experience! My guests were impressed. Drexelbrook gained about 100 new potential clients!

We had our wedding reception at the Mansion Ballroom at Drexelbrook and it was absolutely perfect! Jeannie was absolutely wonderful to work with, and went out of her way to accommodate me and my family. (My parents live 8 hours away, and Jeannie and the whole Drexelbrook team worked hard to make sure they were able to be involved throughout the process.) They were able to help us incorporate all of our nerdy additions, too! Throughout the entire process, I had confidence that I wouldn't have to worry about a thing the day of our wedding... and they didn't disappoint! Everything was beautiful and ran smoothly, and our guests had a fantastic time!! Thank you so much!

I had my wedding here in July 2017 and I highly recommend this venue! I have nothing but praise for them! Jeannie was my wedding coordinator and she was absolutely amazing. From day one she was patient, accommodating, detail-oriented, organized, friendly, responsive, and truly showed she cared about us. She really listens to what your vision is and makes sure it comes alive on your wedding night. The other staff are phenomenal as well. During our wedding reception we had two attendants specifically assigned to us and our parents, and they were always around asking us if we wanted any food or drink. If it weren't for them I probably would have missed out on a lot of the cocktail hour food and dessert because we were busy greeting people! The food itself was absolutely delicious, from the appetizers to dinner to dessert to drinks. The cost is very reasonable compared to other venues - you get your own signature drink, a TON of food, an outdoor firepit, etc. The ONLY critique I have is that they are currently undergoing construction (attaching a hotel to the venue), but they did a good job of hiding any evidence of construction the actual day of (you wouldn't know if you were a guest). Drexelbrook is AMAZING and I highly recommend this venue to anyone wanting to get married. We looked at a dozen venues and we're so glad we decided on here. We are so happy with how everything leading up to the wedding and the actual wedding day played out.

We had our wedding at Drexelbrook in the south/central ballroom a few weeks ago, and what an incredible day it was! Rain, terrible heat, and high humidity could not stop us from having a beautiful day, largely in part to Drexelbrook. From the moment we first met with Drexelbrook, they were so flexible and easy to work with. They listened to the vision I had and made it happen, better than I ever could. I'm still receiving compliments on the beauty of the ballroom and the deliciousness of the food. So many people have told me the apps were the best they've ever tasted. Kim Savino was our contact person throughout the entire process and does her job with perfection. What a wonderful asset to the company. The day was better than we could have ever imagined. Wish we could do it all over again! If you're getting married, CHOOSE DREXELBROOK!

We choose the Drexelbrook after touring many local venues and found the Drexelbrook had the most beautiful setting and a wedding package that had everything we wanted. The south and center ballroom is spacious enough that it held our large families comfortably. Although rain made our outdoor ceremony not possible we were able to have our pictures taken outside in the gazebo and gardens which were beautiful. The day was everything I dreamed it would be and more. Anthony D'Angelo, our wedding coordinator, and the whole Drexelbrook team took our dream and made it come true. Every time I turned around that day the Drexelbrook team was there to ask if they could help in anyway or get me anything.

As soon as we walked in the 'Mansion' ballroom, we knew we found the place. Our wedding was on Oct. 8, 2016 and the place was Gorgeous, exactly what was envisioned (possibly better!). Planning the wedding was made easy as a few things were already included in the package, saving us on flowers/centerpieces and the cake (for instance). Mr. Anthony D'Angelo, our wedding planner, was wonderful and helpful from the minute we met! And the captain and Maitre'D were on point, attending to our every need, as my groom and I were busy greeting our guests! The day of our wedding, it rained, which ruined our plans for outdoor photos. We were freaking out a bit, but Drexelbrook (specially Anthony and his team) were able to let us use plenty of the indoor settings, which are beautiful, and at the last minute, and we could not thank them enough for essentially doing cartwheels to accommodate us and make our special day even better! The food is excellent, and there was no hungry guest afterwards! Everybody who talked to us expressed how beautiful the place is, and how delicious the food is! They made us feel like royalty, and the prices per guest, compared to other places are very reasonable. I would strongly suggest this place to any of my friends for any occasion.

My fiancé and I extensively researched and visited numerous wedding venues in the Philadelphia area. Drexelbrook was unequivocally our top wedding venue for so many reasons. We were attracted to Drexelbrook’s well-established reputation in event and catering, elegant wow factor of the South ballroom and South Terrace gazebo, and variety of freshly prepared food & beverage selection. Since we were an out of town bride and groom that lived in different states, their wedding package really helped saved us time and worry. Their package included extras not found at other venues such as a custom wedding cake from one of Philadelphia top wedding cake bakeries, floral centerpieces, Chiavari ballroom chairs, large colorful selection of linens and napkins, and complimentary guest parking.Overall, the professional, friendly, responsive staff was what solidified our choice. From our first meeting with our Drexelbrook wedding coordinator Christina Lyle, we sensed her genuine excitement in planning our wedding. During the year and a half of correspondences, she always happily answered our million questions and worked tirelessly to accommodate our requests. We were pleasantly surprised the week before our wedding, when she added free upgrades to make our wedding day extra special. The day of the wedding confirmed we had made the right choice. Ray, Ginny, Kim, and their staff always made sure my fiancé and I were well taken care of and fed. The Drexelbrook team worked their magic and made the day flowed seamlessly. Drexelbrook, thank you for an amazing day we will never forget!

Their package included extras not found at other venues such as a custom wedding cake from one of Philadelphia top wedding cake bakeries, floral centerpieces, Chiavari ballroom chairs, large colorful selection of linens and napkins, and complimentary guest parking.Overall, the professional, friendly, responsive staff was what solidified our choice. From our first meeting with our Drexelbrook wedding coordinator Christina Lyle, we sensed her genuine excitement in planning our wedding. During the year and a half of correspondences, she always happily answered our million questions and worked tirelessly to accommodate our requests. We were pleasantly surprised the week before our wedding, when she added free upgrades to make our wedding day extra special. The day of the wedding confirmed we had made the right choice. Ray, Ginny, Kim, and their staff always made sure my fiancé and I were well taken care of and fed. The Drexelbrook team worked their magic and made the day flowed seamlessly. Drexelbrook, thank you for an amazing day we will never forget!

Drexelbrook is the place to have your event hands down! My wedding was last weekend and it was honestly beyond my dream wedding. The entire planning process was so easy and the day of was so amazing. The staff Dominick, Kim, Diamond, Danielle and everyone else is the best of the best. The venue is beautiful and the staff will cater to your every need.

Every single person said its the best wedding they've ever seen or been to they couldn't get over it!!! If I could give Drexelbrook more stars I would. I don't have one complaint and a novel worth of great things to say. Drexelbrook is worth it they are the BEST!

I can not put into words how amazing Drexelbrook made our special day into a memory we will cherish forever. From all of the planning up to the day of the wedding they made our wedding wishes come true. They accommodated our every need, and even made suggestions to help make our day even better. During all of the planning they always got back to any question or concern right away. Every time we met to go over details, they always made us feel at home like apart of the family. On our big day as soon as we walked into Drexelbrook their team welcomed us and made us feel like a King and Queen. Their staff were so professional and courtesy and helped meet our every need. I didn't have to worry about a thing. They even knew how to bustle my dress! When I walked into the ballroom for the first time I immediately cried. It was unbelievably beautiful and more then I ever expected. My whole experience with Drexelbrook especially on our wedding day was exceptional, and just a magically night.The food was incredible! From cocktail hour to dessert, everything was perfect. I highly recommend Drexelbrook, and their staff they are the best of the best! They went above and beyond in every aspect. Even after the wedding our guests were telling us that it was the most classy, and best all around wedding they have ever been to!

You cannot fail if you choose the Drexelbeook team. Our contact, Kim Savino, was helpful and attentive throughout the entire planning process. She helped us customize a menu that was delicious and reflective of our theme, and she even offered advice that fell outside of the realm of catering.\r\rHowever, it was during the wedding itself that the Drexelbrook team really shined! The Bridal party was given its own, personal waiter for drinks. Additionally the groom and I had our own. This extremely personalized service really knocked our socks off.\r\rAlthough it rained the day of our wedding (and had to switch the location of our ceremony and cocktail hour), the team made me feel as though everything was taken care of. It was great feeling so at ease. We were in the best of hands.\r\rAll of our guests were raving about the helpful and attentive wait staff, and everybody was blown away at how delicious the food was! I can personally attest to the deliciousness of my entrée, and I know my family members wanted to order seconds!\r\rThey really are the best at what they do. Thank you, Drexelbrook, for the perfect day! We left happy and completely stuffed!!

We loved the venue when we looked around during our venue search and it also fit our budget. We paid about $120pp. We booked the venue about 14 months before our wedding and they only had 2 Saturdays available for a May 2012 wedding. So we picked May 26. I mostly communicated with them via email during the planning process, they usually respond quickly or within a few hours via email. The waiting staff and service was excellent for our reception. Our guests were happy and impressed with the décor and service. They have a bridal showcase twice a year and you are treated to one of them. They also allow you to bring your parents, so it was a great experience for us and our parents. We tasted the food, and our parents got a sneak peak of our venue and their service.

The venue was so beautiful, I was married on their terrace and could not ask for better service from the staff and the food was great, I asked for extra seasoning and they gave me just that! My one and only complaint was my ice cream Sunday bar opened and closed without me even knowing, I assumed the desert would be open until at least an hour before the wedding was over, but the closed it after an hour, which I wasn't informed about the time when I choose my package, open bar was open till a half hour before closing, I guess they didn't want the ice cream to melt, but I should have been informed, other than that was one of the best days of my life and I can't thank them enough!

After a phone call the caterer informed the bride that he wrote down the wrong day and that there was nothing he could do for them, not even come and set the tables. Three hours before the wedding we had no table clothes, dishes, glasses, food--nothing, withabout 100 guest scheduled to arrive. We called Drexelbrook. By 5:30 we had a bartender, appetizers--hot and cold, waitstaff and after a cocktail hour we went in to a beautifully set dining room with a complete buffet of vegetarian food. the evening went perfectly. Everyone from Drexelbrook was very professional. I cannot thank Gene and the staff of Drexelbrook enough for what they did for us. I highly, highly recommend them to anyone who wants a professional, well run wedding reception. Any by the way, the food was delicious, we received a lot of complements on it.

Our event planner Jessica was absolutely amazing. She helped with everything that I was confused about with planning the reception. We had a personal maître-de who catered to our every need. And this was all included in our package price. My dad put it perfectly; we got at $30,000 wedding for $16,000. It was the most elegant place for a wedding and I could not have imagined my wedding anywhere else. Everyone getting married should make an appointment and go check out the Drexelbrook.

I loved working with Drexelbrook for our April 24th wedding. My husband and I wanted a place that was elegant and had exceptional service features. We found it in Drexelbrook. They assisted us in more ways than I could actually describe. Our point person stayed in contact with us, even with her having a baby mid-planning, throughout the entire process. Even at the reception when my husband stepped on and broke my bustle on the dress, she found a way to repair it for me. Everyone has been raving about the reception since the wedding and asking us how we pulled such a fantastic reception together, we smiled and named our Drexelbrook point person. If you want your wedding and reception to be fun and not have to worry about alot I suggest Drexelbrook because once they were involved all I had to worry about was favors (which we made) and getting everyone to the church on time.

Very professional, on top of absolutely everything, and the service and staff, exceptional, food (no, not a big plate with a small amount in the middle), absolute-licious!!! They were courteous, went above and beyond their duty during this very exciting time. All the details involved in planning...done, stress alleviated, expert referrals of vendors, outstanding. Kudos Drexelbrook!!!\rMr. & Mrs. Randolph A. Grier, III\rJuly 12, 2008
