Long Island Comes To Philadelphia

Manor House at Commonwealth

In my humble opinion, The Manor House at Commonwealth is one of the most underrated facilities around. Housed in a humble, yet stately 18th century fieldstone farmhouse, the service and cuisine never seems to fall short of guests' high expectations.

Despite the rustic exterior, the interior is has a contemporary design, holding spacious and beautiful rooms for hosting the most elaborate events.

Candace and Benjamin's day began with a beautiful outdoor ceremony, with Candace and Ben standing nearby the pond at the Manor House.

After the ceremony and cocktail hour, the bridal party excitedly entered the ballroom. Candace and Ben shared the first dance, Candace danced with her father, then Ben danced with his mother to a unique song.

When Ben was a little boy, his father (a recording artist) was playing a song which Ben decided to join in on. The result was a very moving song, with Ben's father singing in harmony with a six year-old Ben! Awesome!

It was a real honor having the opportunity to provide entertainment for what seemed to be a very close-knit group of family and friends. It was hard to determine where one family ended and the other began!

Congratulations, Candace & Benjamin!
