Profile

The Please Touch Museum at Memorial Hall in scenic Fairmount Park guarantees a unique wedding experience with its historic backdrop (the marble is the original from the museum's construction in 1876) and whimsical rooms. Hamilton Hall, the main reception area, can seat up to 300 guests with room for a dance floor and features a 60-foot glass dome ceiling, so you can even dance under the stars.  The Centennial Gallery features a realistic model of Fairmount Park in 1876, and the Carousel House, an area encased in glass with a full restored and working Dentzel Carousel from 108 is popular for cocktails.  The museum exclusively uses Max & Me catering, but can make exceptions for kosher needs.
Prices start at around $125 per person for catering, plus facility rental.
