The simplicity of all your wedding activities in one place
Your wedding is more than just your "I do's." With art-deco details, sweeping skyline views, custom cocktails, sustainable cuisine and event planners who obsess over all the little things so that you can focus on the big picture — just enjoying yourselves! — the Kimpton Hotel Palomar Philadelphia is well-suited for any and all wedding events. We'll keep the festivities going all weekend long, from your welcome reception to your farewell brunch. Plus, our Center City location makes it convenient for your guests to explore the city when they're not at one of your fabulous parties. All the qualities you want, all in one spot — that's worth committing to.
Welcome Reception
Your guests will be traveling from near and far to celebrate the love between you two, so take some time to celebrate them with a welcome reception, featuring light bites and custom cocktails. The right room for this is (pardon the pun) the Wright Room on the 24th floor, which feels immersed in the skyline of the city and is a spectacular spot to welcome your loved ones to your wedding weekend.
Rehearsal Dinner
Let Square 1682's Executive Chef Mackenson "Mack" Horebe cater the rehearsal dinner of a lifetime as you gather your nearest and dearest together to practice ahead of the big day. Located on the 24th floor, the Abele Room — which boasts magnificent views of the North, South and West Philadelphia nighttime cityscape — is just one of many dazzling choices for this occasion. Whatever space you choose, expect fresh, organic ingredients crafted into delectable New American fare.
Ceremony
Do you dream of skyline views as you say your I do's? Soaring 25 stories high, our penthouse Burnham Ballroom features floor-to-ceiling windows to let the light in, framed by a lustrous color palette of silver tones and subtle accents. For a small wedding with only immediate family, the AIA Library is a decidedly unique spot for intimate weddings. Or have your day in the sun and get married outside at John F. Collins Park, a quiet oasis just steps away. No matter your style, this will be your day done your way.
Wedding Reception
Once the vows are exchanged and the rings are in their rightful place, it's time to eat, drink and be married! Start with a pop-art-infused cocktail hour on the 24th floor, then host a reception to remember in the beaming Burnham Ballroom. Dine and dance the night away under a trio of chandeliers starring hundreds of light-reflecting crystal drops. Our wedding specialist will be there every step of the way to ensure it all goes off without a hitch.
After Party
Once the reception is over, the revelry doesn't have to end. Move to the lounge area of Square 1682, or take over the entire restaurant, for an after-hours celebration. We'll keep you fueled with a late-night menu that includes fun options like pizzas, wings, hoagies, build-your-own cheesesteaks and breakfast burritos.
Farewell Brunch
Reminisce on the joys of your wedding day and send your guests off with happy hearts and full bellies with a morning-after brunch. There are ample spots within the hotel to host a beautiful sendoff, including our Tyng Room. Large windows make for a natural light–drenched affair, and with its unique residential design, including cork ceilings, designer lighting and soft seating, Tyng is the picture-perfect backdrop to end the fairy-tale wedding weekend.
