Personally I've always loved Artesano's vibes and how unique it is as a wedding venue. Corie and Sam are wonderful to work with, they are responsive, efficient and organized, love them! We really appreciate them and Chef Kelly working with us on our cocktail Hors d'Oeuvres menu, we specifically wanted to recreate a Cantonese Dim Sum - Chinese BBQ pork pastry (Cha Siu So) and they made it happen and nailed it!! All the staff there are awesome :) -

Not Enough Words
There are not enough words to describe how perfect our wedding was at Artesano! Within 10 minutes of our tour we knew this was the place we wanted to get married. Its unique vibe and decor was modern enough to make our wedding stand out, but still had traditional beauty. The staff was absolutely incredible and Sam and Corie were complete rock stars throughout the entire planning process. Everything they promised from our initial meeting was brought to life on the actual day and I had complete faith in their team without having to hire any additional coordinator, There is so much natural beauty throughout both the ceremony and reception space it made decorating beyond easy. Then there is the food.... food is cooked onsite and it OUT OF THIS WORLD. The amount of compliments we got for both cocktail hour and dinner were amazing. Everything came out hot and full of flavor. The Artesano staff has their system down pat and I would recommend this venue time and time again. They made our wedding dreams come true! -

The best venue out there!! - Artesano Gallery was the most magical location for our wedding. I have truly never seen a venue like it in my life. It is so different, unique, and beautiful. Not only was it the most gorgeous venue, the food was phenomenal. So many of our guests have mentioned to me that it was the best wedding food that they've ever had. The hors d'oeuvres kept flowing. At our cocktail hour, people kept stopping my husband and I to tell us how amazing the hors d'oeuvres were. And it didn't stop there. The first course and entree were outstanding. So many guests have told me that at weddings, they don't usually enjoy the wedding steak. However at Artesano it was the best wedding steak they've ever had. And the crab cakes were to die for. For the vegetarians, we went with the vegetable shepherd's pie which was delicious as well.
My husband and I brought ZERO decorations because the venue is so gorgeous that you don't need any decorations. People kept complimenting the decor and were shocked when I said I brought zero decorations. We saved SO much money by choosing a venue that was already decked out in decor. Even the table decor all belonged to Artesano. We used their table numbers and candelabras and they were stunning. The other venues that we toured, we would have spent an arm and a leg to dress it up to make it look nice. Not Artesano, it's already the perfect back drop for the perfect day.
Along those same lines, there is so much included in their package. We only had to add a few other additional vendors (photobooth, photographer, DJ, ceremony musicians). Artesano in their package takes care of food, alcohol, desserts. It was so nice to not have to worry about outsourcing food/alcohol/or even a wedding cake. Artesano takes care of the wedding cake for you (from Bredenbecks which is the best!)
The best part was, Artesano and their staff are such a well-oiled machine. As a bride, I didn't have to worry about any details because Samantha, Corie, and their staff took care of everything. It was such a smooth and perfect day.
So many of our guests hadn't heard of Artesano before, and I've already had a few people tell me that they'd love to consider Artesano for their wedding one day.
For any brides and grooms out there looking for the most perfect and unique venue that'll absolutely wow their guests, look no further than this hidden gem of Artesano. I'm forever thankful that we chose this as our wedding venue. By far the best day of our lives!
PS - Their coffee shop is beautiful as well! Be sure to stop in and try some of their coffee or food from their brunch truck! -

The Artesano Gallery was the most beautiful and unique place to host our wedding! Corie and Sam were incredible to work with throughout the planning process - always quick and helpful responding to any questions or concerns, and such sweet people to be around. The Artesano itself is unlike any other venue we've seen, and our guests were completely wowed! Not to mention how tasty the food was! Our day, and our photos, are incredibly beautiful amongst all the intricate metal artwork in and around the Artesano. 100% recommend for a perfect, urban, funky, one-of-a-kind event! -

These guys are the dream team!! They felt like family.
The people:
Let me start by saying you won't find a better team to work with than at Artesano. Ivan and Talia were such a pleasure to work with and were a big reason we chose Artesano. We were looking at 6 or 7 venues in the philadelphia area, and Artesano was the first one we toured. After we toured the venue and spoke to Ivan, we made our decision on the spot and cancelled the rest of our tours. Ivan truly cares about you. He makes you feel like family and is responsive and accessible. We would drop by when we were in the area or give them a random call, and Ivan and team were always there to help and chat. Wedding planning is stressful enough, but Ivan and his team make it as easy as it can be.
The people make a difference and you won't find better people to work with. We were supposed to get married May 23rd 2020, but were unable due to the COVID-19 restrictions. It was a stressful time, but Ivan was so understanding. He was flexible and was open to how we wanted to proceed. We ended up having to cancel due to the unknown of the pandemic timeline and personal reasons. Ivan refunded us all of our deposits and not once did he pressure us to consider postponing against our best interest. We'll definitely try to book an event there when life returns to normal.
The Venue:
The space is unique and beautiful. It feels like you're in an upscale sophisticated art gallery, but also has a homey and intimate feel. Artesano is really unlike any other venue in the area (and this is coming from an Architect). It's definitely a space that your guests won't forget. It's right on main street in Manayunk, which is an awesome neighborhood. Your guests will have a great time checking out the shops and food places on main street.
The Food:
Usually when you go to weddings, the food is mass produced and just not great. That's not Artesano. The food is amazing. Chef Kelly definitely takes pride in her food, as every hors d'oeuvres and main course we tried left an impression. We continued to talk about how good the food was after the taste testing and our two foodie friends that came with us couldn't stop raving about it. Case in point, the vegetarian option (we chose vegetarian shepherd's pie) might have been our favorite. Usually the vegetarian draws the short end of the stick and the vegetarian dish is an afterthought. The vegetarian Shepherd's pie we tasted would make any meat lover happy.
Summary:
Feel like you understand how much we love Artesano. We really have no negatives about Artesano. You're going to get the best food, people, and value. Whether you're looking for a wedding venue or just hosting a party, Artesano is really an ideal venue. -

The Artesano Gallery is truly the best! We fell in love with the unique, gorgeous venue the minute we walked in and were beyond happy to work with Ivan and Talia. They were extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and honest. They guided us through the entire process with a smile and were even complimented by our other vendors for their professionalism! The day of our wedding was perfect and all of our guests are still talking about their experience! The food was AMAZING and everyone who works there went above and beyond to provide the best for our us and our guests! All of our guests can’t stop talking about the how much they loved the beauty of the venue, the food, and the staff for running such a flawless night! The Artesano Gallery is truly one of a kind and the perfect place to get married! -

We could not be happier!
We just got married at Artesano and could not be happier with our experience here. Throughout the whole planning process Talia and Ivan were so responsive and walked us through the whole process. The day of was perfect. The space is unique and funky. The moment I walked in, I knew we were there to have a good time. Our guests could not stop talking about how good all the food was. Multiple couples who had gotten married already told us that they wish they had known about this location. The menu options are insane - there are so many choices and all the food we had was cooked to perfection. Go see for yourself how great this place was. The staff was so attentive to us throughout the whole evening. We wanted for nothing and wish we could relive that night again and again. -

Gabrielle Sent on 06/26/2018Artesano Gallery truly is unlike any wedding venue we have seen and we were so pleased to have shared our special day here. Everything exceeded our expectations. The food, including the hor d'oeuvres, were amazing works of art. The venue itself was candle lit which made the ambiance very romantic and inviting. Artesano Gallery has various pieces of iron artwork throughout the venue making this location unique including a stunning vertical garden that is perfect for photos. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we had anything we needed and that our guests were happy as well. The dance floor is located on a different level than the dining area which makes the space versatile and interesting. We had guests that preferred to stay on the upper level who enjoyed their time just as much as those who wanted to go down onto the dance floor. We have received, and continue to receive, compliments from our guests from all ages saying what a great time they had, but especially the unforgettable food experience. We were able to sit down and eat comfortably which is apparently not so common for a bride and groom at a typical reception, but the Artesano staff made sure time and time again that our needs were being met so we didn't have to leave the table for anything.If we were to get married again, we wouldn't want to do it anywhere else! Thank you so much for creating everlasting memories and enjoyable experiences for our guests, but more importantly for us as bride and groom!

Beth Sent on 03/17/2018We wanted a truly unique location for our daughter's wedding. She is artistic and a bit non-traditional. The venue space is not only beautiful, but flexible for ceremony/cocktails/reception. The furniture in the space is distinctive and wonderful for relaxing lounge areas. The artwork that graces the entire space is fantastic with a fun flair! People LOVED photographs in front of the bio-wall! The food was wonderful. All our guests raved! Working with Ivan and Talia was easy - they are true professional. I really can't say enough about how pleased we are that we chose Artesano!
