What Our Clients Say
The Merion not only beat every other venue we considered in terms of value and meeting our budget, but the staff were FANTASTIC to work with, especially our event specialist, Emily McCann. Emily went above and beyond throughout the planning process and also on our wedding day - creating a timeline of events, always making herself available to answer our many questions via email and phone, and setting up our decor day-of. Thanks to Emily, our cocktail hour and reception could not have gone any smoother. She radiates so much calm, positive energy that we felt certain any task within her responsibility would be taken care of without a problem, and we were right to think so. Taylor, our head server, was also amazingly attentive. She met up with us before cocktail hour began to ask for our favorite drinks and then ensured that we were never empty handed of food or drink as we greeted our guests throughout cocktail hour. She also ensured that the bridal suite was well equipped with snacks and drinks and even brought my husband a hand-written list of all the available whiskeys during dinner. We really could not have asked for a better wedding day than the Merion provided. The food and drinks were amazing, our cake was delicious, the Skylight Ballroom was gorgeous, and the staff are exceptional. Everyone we knew warned us that our wedding day would fly by and we would hardly have time to enjoy, yet alone eat our dinners, but the Merion staff ensured that was not the case and that we were able to fully enjoy our day

What Our Clients Say
We recently had our wedding at The Merion, and it was nothing short of perfection. From start to finish, the team was incredibly attentive, professional, and genuinely invested in making our day unforgettable. Every detail was executed flawlessly, and the service was impeccable throughout the night. Our guests are still raving about the food with a variety and quality that exceeded all expectations. The presentation was just as impressive as the taste. Manny was an excellent bartender and did an amazing job with the cigar bar/smoked old fashioned station. We heard nothing but good things about the other bartenders/servers as well. We want to give a special shoutout to our event coordinator Calli. She went above and beyond to give us our dream wedding and even stayed late until the night to ensure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. We could not have pulled this off without her and by the end she felt like part of the family. We would highly recommend her to anyone planning on getting married at the Merion in the coming years. Did I mention she also helped in planning my proposal to Alli in a different room at the Merion? We are so grateful to The Merion for making our wedding a day we will cherish and remember forever. If you're looking for a venue that combines elegance and exceptional service, look no further.

I could not recommend The Merion and my coordinator Calli enough. From day one when we booked with them, they were nothing short of amazing. The service they provide is extraordinary and I could not have asked for better communication and transparency. It honestly took a lot of the stress of wedding planning away knowing that the biggest part, the venue, was always solid. Not only is the service impeccable, but the venue itself is absolutely gorgeous. I got married in May, my ceremony was in the beautiful North Garden where the landscaping is breathtaking and then the reception followed in the Palace Ballroom which I picked for the beautiful gold accents and chandeliers. I recommend this place 1000000% BRIDES DONT WALK, RUN TO THE MERION TO THE MERION TO BOOK YOUR SPECIAL DAY AND WATCH YOUR DREAMS UNFOLD!!!! xoxo

What Our Clients Say
We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience at The Merion. From start to finish, everything was flawless. Our main contact, Emily, was so sweet, professional, and accommodating—she always made us feel supported, even when we had last-minute changes. On the day of the wedding, the staff truly went above and beyond. Lisa, our maître d, Maria (captain), Dev (head server), and Manny (bartender) were all amazing. They made sure our guests were well cared for, and they never let my husband or me go without food or a drink in hand. We felt like royalty thanks to their attentiveness and kindness. The food was outstanding, with so much variety that our guests are still raving about it. The Skylight Room provided the most beautiful backdrop for our ceremony, and the Empire Room was the perfect setting for an unforgettable reception. Having separate bride and groom suites was also such a thoughtful touch and made the day run smoothly. If you’re considering The Merion—don’t hesitate. It was everything we could have hoped for and more. We wholeheartedly recommend it to any couple looking for a stunning venue with an exceptional team.
