How to Find a Wedding Venue Near Philadelphia That Includes Everything in One Package

Planning a wedding means keeping track of a lot of moving parts. Caterer, bar service, linens, cake, and someone to keep the timeline on track. At Adelphia Weddings, our packages bring many of those details together in one place. Couples looking for a wedding venue near Philadelphia are usually asking for one thing underneath the question: a package that pulls the key reception details together so there's less to manage. That's what our all-inclusive package is meant to do, and it's how we've hosted weddings since 2001 in Deptford, New Jersey.

What an All-Inclusive Wedding Venue Near Philadelphia Includes

When we talk about an all-inclusive package, we mean your space, in-house catering, open bar, cake, linens, centerpieces, and event day service are brought together through the same venue. That gives you fewer separate details to manage as you plan.

Two ballrooms, so the space fits your guest list

We have two reception spaces, and the right one depends on how many people you're bringing. The Pan Athenian Grand Ballroom holds up to 500 guests, with soaring ceilings, grand chandeliers, and warm gold accents that keep a large room feeling inviting rather than cavernous. Its built-in LED uplighting can shift the mood of the room as the reception moves from dinner into dancing.

The Pan Athenian Center is our recently renovated space for up to 180 guests. It draws on the glamour of a 1920s speakeasy, with rich textures and polished finishes, and the lighting dims through the evening to settle into something more intimate as the night unfolds. If your celebration is smaller than the Grand Ballroom capacity, this space gives you a more intimate reception setting.

The food is made in-house

Our catering is handled in-house. A wedding here begins with a cocktail hour hosted across indoor and outdoor spaces, featuring chef-curated displays and passed hors d'oeuvres with full bar access. Dinner is a custom menu designed for you, and a private tasting for you and four guests is included, so the menu on your wedding night is one you've already approved. The night closes with a dessert display, your custom wedding cake, a sweet table, an ice cream bar, and a chocolate lava fountain with fresh fruit.

Your package includes a 5.5-hour open bar

Every Adelphia wedding package includes a 5.5-hour open bar. That covers ultra-premium liquors, a champagne toast, premium still and sparkling wines with dinner, bottled beer, fresh fruit juices, and soft beverages, plus a signature drink of your choice. 

The details that are already included

This is where an all-inclusive wedding venue near Philadelphia earns its name. Floor-length tablecloths and napkins in your choice of colors come standard, and tables are set with fine wedding china, glassware, and flatware. Fresh floral centerpieces from Sunshine Flowers are included for each guest table. A hand-sculpted ice display, customized floor plans, table numbers, and a decorative card box round it out. These details are included in the Adelphia Weddings package, which helps couples understand more of what is already covered before they book.

A team that runs the day for you

On your wedding day, you'll have a Maître D' supervising the flow and a dedicated Bridal Attendant looking after you and your party. Ninety minutes before the ceremony, you'll have access to the newly renovated Bridal Suite with a private bathroom and mirrors. Your Bridal Attendant is there to assist as you prepare for the ceremony. Valet parking is provided for your guests, and a coatroom with an attendant is available for seasonal comfort. If you hold your ceremony on site, the event is a 6-hour celebration, so the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception can all happen at Adelphia Weddings.
