Friends Center — Local services in Philadelphia

We had the most fabulous experience hosting our wedding ceremony at the Friends Center. From start to finish, their staff was professional, kind and accommodating. We were so lucky to work with amazing people who helped our dream of the perfect Quaker wedding ceremony come true.

Special shoutouts to Shakirah, who helped us plan and arrange the big day, and Joe, who helped us execute every little detail.

The space in the Race Street Room is beautiful, grand but simple, and the perfect room for a large Quaker ceremony.
