Philadelphia Wedding Venue Spotlight | Morris House Hotel

Wedding

There is a secret garden of a wedding venue smack dab in Philadelphia and you would never know about it unless you were looking for it. It’s called the Morris House Hotel (home to M Restaurant) – a sweet boutique bed and breakfast built in the Revolutionary era and exudes colonial elegance.

Inside there are 15 rooms, a library, fireplaces, comfy sofas, and a superb staff.

But the real highlight is the courtyard. The courtyard garden can host a wedding that you’d never expect downtown: greenery, historic charm (226 years worth), fountains, flowers, ivy, bricks, and steps away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It’s absolutely perfect for the couple who wants an escape to a beautiful garden wedding but doesn’t want to leave downtown Philadelphia.

The “tent” is really just a tent by name. The ceiling is as clear as glass, giving you a great, open feeling with sights to the high rises around. I have Synergetic to thank for providing the uplighting (just wait til you see it at night!) and Beautiful Blooms for the centerpieces.

It’s an awesome space. If you end up at Morris House Hotel for your wedding; give me a call!

Philadelphia Wedding Photographer | The Union League | Anna + Andrew
Anna and Andrew held their wedding on a rainy Saturday in December.  For many couples, this would be incredibly disheartening.  Somehow I manage to get the most amazing couples in the world, the kind that take it all in stride and carry on with big, beautiful smiles.  Anna and Andrew wowed me. Everything from the getting ready prep to the reception happened at the Union League of Philadelphia. Anna and her gals happily chattered while getting dolled up in one room while the gents were throwing it back in another. Anna was dressed to the nines in a dreamy sweetheart, A-line Watters gown with loads of lace and some bling arou ...
