Our micro-wedding at Power Plant was a dream! In short, this venue is beautiful, Chris and her husband are incredible, and we were so happy that we ended up choosing them to host our day. We had the incredible misfortune of being one of the many 2020 couples who were faced with the difficult decision of cancelling, postponing, or changing our wedding due to the pandemic. We had chosen Power Plant - and our August 2020 date - almost a year prior to the pandemic because of its modern style, flexibility, and laid back (yet extremely helpful) manager Chris. While we were already excited to have our wedding at Power Plant, we found that we were even more thankful for this choice when the pandemic began to upturn all of our best laid plans. Once we knew we were going to need to modify our special day, Chris stayed in extremely close touch. She and her husband bent over backwards to make sure we were comfortable with whatever we decided (despite all of us being in new uncharted territory). I will say that their communication throughout this process was incredible. We were given the options to postpone or continue with one of their brand new packages for elopements or micro-weddings. We chose to scale back our 130 person wedding to a 23-person event with Power Plant's brand new micro-wedding package. And we ended up being their first ever micro-wedding! Those who had planned a wedding can only imagine how stressful this was, but Chris was our constant. She made sure we were informed and happy with our choices, and played a heavy hand in helping us transform the space and re-design our special day. This included re-doing our timelines, floor plan, helping us implement covid safety procedures, and facilitating a seamless wedding live stream for our guests who we could no longer have in person. When the day came, our family and friends had no idea what to expect and they were blown away. Not only did the live stream work so well and was easy for everyone (technology literate or not) to access, but the day and the space turned out perfectly. The space at Power Plant allowed us the space to safely distance while still having dinner, dancing, and all of the typical wedding traditions! Our guests came away from the event saying that they might be PREFERRING micro-weddings in the future. All in all, we could not be more grateful to Chris and the rest of the Power Plant team for everything they had done for us!!

   Read moreWe had our wedding here on October 7th and there arenât enough works to describe how thankful we are that we selected this venue.
Chris & Jim the venue owners, were absolutely fabulous the entire process. Chrisâs communication style and response time is impeccable and sheâs always reachable by email or phone. She answered every and any questions we had and is extremely knowledgeable about vendor recommendations.
The venue itâs self itâs stunning and extremely unique. It has gorgeous natural light, hardwood flooring, and an exposed ceiling. With all those natural features we didnât feel a lot of decor was necessary.
We were initially drawn to this space because they were really flexible about having an intimate 60 person wedding which is rare to find in Philadelphia.
The day of the wedding we were givin a bridal suite to store all our stuff and have the bridal party hang out before the ceremony, which was extremely helpful. The venue also provided a day of coordinator, Chole who was super helpful for the ceremony lineup and setting up some of our decor. This venue is bring your own vendors which is really convenient to shop around for catering staff within your budget.
I highly recommend this venue for its uniqueness, staff, proximity to hotels & parking garages, and itâs very...
   Read moreMy husband and I got married here in September 2024 and we could not be more thrilled with this venue. We wanted a never ending cocktail party with a dance floor that never stopped and that's exactly what we got. Chris and Jim were such a pleasure to work every step of the way. Chris is SO communicative and makes planning an event here an absolute breeze. Jim, helped us with all our drop offs and truly made us feel like we were a part of the family. The overall vibe of the space is so unique and perfect for an urban wedding. We were able to walk from our Church Wedding at Christ Church and host the reception. The upstairs area was perfect for our photobooth. Guests ate and drank all night and the space was perfectly set up for flowing conversation and movement so guests could mingle with whoever they pleased all evening. We did not opt for a formal sit down and instead passed food all evening and served a pad thai station and sushi bar. It was a 10/10 experience and the space made it so you could dance if you wanted to, sit down if you wanted to and have a conversation, or watch from above. If you are contemplating this space - go for an in person site visit and you will never look back. Thank you to Chris and team for making our wedding so special and for helping our reception run...
