Down Town Club

Almost a month later, our guests are still telling us how this was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. I had been to weddings at a few Cescaphe venues before we selected the Down Town Club. The food is always top-notch. Come HUNGRY and THIRSTY! And try not to miss your cocktail hour – it’s too delicious. But if you do, there is a Maître D assigned to you and your new spouse who will take care of anything you need.  There was also a server assigned to each of our parents, so they were completely attended to. Beyond the food and service that is customarily excellent with all Cescaphe weddings, I think the beauty of the Down Town Club is unmatched. You’re on the 11th floor of a building just across the street from Independence Hall; the windows offer stunning views (our out-of-town guests, history buffs, and even Philly locals were all amazed!) There’s also a baby grand piano in the cocktail area, which we hired a conservatory student to play, such a nice touch. You and your guests will love this space. Plus, the all-in-one price per head (food, open bar, tax, tip, cake) makes budgeting simple. The Cescaphe team is all pro’s.

There truly are not enough words to explain how thrilled we are with having chosen The Down Town Club for our big day. Having planned a wedding from across the country, attending to minor details or ensuring that everything would go as planned sometimes stressed me out but the team at Cescaphe reminded me throughout the process that they were there to make sure everything went as planned. I could not have imagined my day more perfect, and I owe most of that to the amazing staff at Cescaphe. Everything was spectacular, from the decor through Beautiful Blooms and the accessories of mine that were so beautifully set around the venue, to the views and the absolutely phenomenal food. To say the service provided by our Maître D’s were a step above the rest, truly doesn’t even touch upon how wonderful they were. Thank you, Cescaphe for making our day perfect!

I am a demanding NYC sales exec who wants everything perfect on the first try. I looked at a ton of venues in NYC but growing up in PA had a hunch that I might find the perfect venue in Philly. I love history and Old City and was lucky enough to stumble upon Cescaphe in my search.  I can’t give my Sales Manager enough praise. She was so professional, friendly, straight forward and helped with me so many things that were not part of her job. I run a team of sales and marketing professionals and she is one of the best reps I have ever had the pleasure to work with. I chose the Down Town Club the second I walked through the doors to the ballroom, it was the perfect. The night of the wedding could not have gone more perfectly. The food was incredible (people won’t shut up about it still), the staff was incredible, the venue looked stunning and the event was run perfectly. My NYC friends all said it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to and the best assortment of food. It’s all because Cescaphe knows how to run a wedding like a boss. Our Event Manager made my life so easy. I didn’t have time to plan a wedding and she rolled with my tardiness and helped me figure things out last minute. She was so friendly and was so fun to work with, a total pro. With Cescaphe you get a Maître D for your wedding day. I didn’t really think much about this in advance and honestly didn’t know what to expect. When I say our Maître D was a dream come true, I mean it. I could go on and on about how great he was, but I think the fact that my band emailed me specifically to rave about him says it all – “The Maitre D’, Andrew, was totally top-notch. He communicated with me so well all night and never left me guessing about anything. Any time I was wondering how much more dance music we’d be needing, as soon as I’d look up, he’d be there waiting to tell me. He made things SO easy.” To wrap things up, BOOK THIS VENUE, it was a dream!
