Our entire Wedding Weekend took place at the Rittenhouse Hotel and each individual experience we had there made it a magic moment in our lives. The Rittenhouse is truly exceptional and their service is outstanding.
Starting at check in, the whole Wedding Party felt like royalty. Our rooms were ready early and of course they were gorgeous and comfortable.These rooms were some of the best hotel rooms many of Wedding Party had ever stayed in and they felt pampered and glamourous. The staff treated my husband and I to a Bridal Suite gift upon arrival and we wanted for nothing the entire time.
The Reception was beautiful and the service provided was outstanding. The Cocktail Hour and After Party were perfect and everyone kept raving about how incredible the food and cake were. We were told by our guests that it was the most delicious wedding food they had ever had. If you are looking for food to serve at the Cocktail Hour get the Dim Sum- our guests went crazy for it!
We also had Bridal Party hair and make-up done in the salon and I cannot recommend that enough. Every staff member was amazing and they truly are artists. Not to mention that the food provided was delicious as well.
The Brunch on Sunday was a feast; there were so many delicious options that guests had multiple helpings. Originally we were going to have our Brunch downstairs but so many people stayed over that we had a Brunch for 90 guests. Instead of the Rittenhouse telling us that it would be impossible to accommodate so many guests when we had originally anticipated 40 people, the Rittenhouse moved us to the Ballroom and made it happen! Again, the Rittenhouse went above and beyond.
This hotel, its location, its staff, and its catering are incredible. This is easily the best Wedding and Reception Venue in Philadelphia.

The Rittenhouse Hotel knows the meaning of customer service, something that is so hard to find today. They made each step of the process easy, anticipating our needs, and leaving no detail unattended to. I couldn't be happier with the wedding/service we had at the Rittenhouse.

We held a luncheon reception for around 40 guests at the tea room. We were sold on the room it because of the beautiful natural light, which created a pleasant atmosphere. The patio also created a lovely, relaxing backdrop. Jessica Kerrigan and the Rittenhouse team were fantastic to work with from the very beginning. Jessica was great about helping plan a menu within our budget, was easy to communicate with, and ensured that our lunch was set up impeccably and ran smoothly. The service and food were stunning, and our guests still remember the day fondly. We highly recommend the Rittenhouse, and especially the Mary Cassatt Tea Room, for special gatherings!
