Whether it’s an intimate anniversary celebration for 30 of your closest friends, a bar mitzvah for 150 classmates, or a wedding gala for 500, you can rest assured that the professional and attentive staff at The Merion will see to it that your once-in-a-lifetime event is everything you hoped it would be – and more. Every detail is tastefully considered to make your special occasion memorable, from your first meeting with our event planner until the last dance and final farewell.

Crystal chandeliers and ceilings that have the ability to change color set the tone for what is sure to be a most memorable evening for up to 600 guests. Use of the adjacent grand hallway is included, and the new North Patio and Palazzo Terrace are ideal for the cocktail hour. a most MEMORABLE evening © http://www.artworkphotos.net/ THE GRAND HALLWAY & PALAZZO BALLROOM © http://www.soultstudios.com/ 10 |
