I had my wedding in July at the Downtown Club in Philadelphia, PA. It was perfect. The venue, first of all, is beautiful. The room accomodated the fourteen piece band and the 200 wedding guests with room for a large dance floor (very important in my opinion!) We did a cocktail hour, sit down dinner and a chocholate dessert bar. They threw in the sushi appetizers for free, which was awesome. Dinner was great, everybody got served the almost the same time which was one thing I was nervous about (I hate when it takes forever for everybody to get served. The room was set up exactly as planned, the event manager was really helpful when I was being indecisive. OH, and as a plus, there happened to be fireworks going on that night which you could see from the huge windows in the venue! Other Pros: Near hotels, public transportation and numerous bars for in between drinks. Cons: Is a little pricey, parking is expensive. Only gripe: They ran out of booze, supposedly. My family does drink, but still. So I was a little upset when they had no more liquor. However, there was beer left and obviously people could drink that instead, so it wasn't the end of the world. I just thought for ""open bar"" they would have had more.
