A Bash By America's Birthplace

The Down Town Club
Philadelphia, PA
Web Site

Founded in 1897, The Down Town Club was an exclusive private luncheon and social club for some of Philadelphia's most prominent families for 98 years. It is certain that many important business decisions affecting the city were made under this prestigious roof.

Recently, The Down Town Club has been updated with rich new colors and fabrics, while maintaining the grandeur and integrity of the original space.

The view from the ballrooms of the Down Town Club is not only beautiful, but is also extremely historically important to the nation. From above, you can and see Independence National Historical Park, the sites where the Declaration of Independence was debated and adopted and where the Liberty Bell currently resides.

Other than Daniel injuring his foot a few weeks ago, Megan & Daniel's day was without flaw!

After arriving, the guests mingled in the Grill Room and listened to music while enjoying each other's company and waiting for the opening of the Grand Ballroom.

After entering the ballroom and sharing their first dance as husband and wife, dinner began. It wasn't long before the guests were up on their feet and dancing the night away!

At one point, the Wedgewood Room opened, revealing a full Viennese dessert table and chefs preparing flambéed Bananas Foster and Cherries Jubilee.

Towards the end of the evening, the guests honored Megan's recently departed sister, sharing in a dance to Faith Hill's "There You'll Be". It was a very emotional moment considering Lindsay's passing was very sudden and how much she was loved by everyone who knew her.

In the end, the guests loudly cheered the newlyweds as they got ready to head off on their honeymoon.

Congratulations, Megan and Daniel!

Megan & Daniel's comments about their wedding entertainment:

"Steve is the best! We just can not say enough good things about him! My fiance and I dated for 13 years, so when a wedding was finally in the planning stages we wanted everything to be perfect. He met with us, was an absolute joy, and was the ONLY choice. Unfortunately, perfection was not meant to be. When my younger sister was tragically killed, Steve was beyond sympathetic, offering to help with groceries, etc. I just could not believe the generosity. When Daniel tore his Achillies tendon Steve came to our apartment to meet with us and assured us everything would be great. Somehow, I knew he would make things alright. He said he prefers to be a "WED" (Wedding Entertainment Director) than a "DJ" and that he was. He was there every step of the way, checking in with us throughout the entire event, and making sure everything was as close to perfect as possible. We were so blessed to have had such a wonderful "WED", and we are even more blessed to have met a great friend. Thank you Steve! Congratulations to those who are able to secure him for their important event!"
