As 2023 comes to a close, the Philadelphia Wedding staff took a look back at the real weddings we have had the honor of writing about over the last year. There’s so much to love about each of them — from the couples to the inspiration to the decor to the venues to, of course, their location right here in Philadelphia. We shared with you too many to list (though you can check them all out at this link), so we’ve rounded up 10 of your favorites. There’s a Pride-themed Indian American bash, a coffee-filled soiree, a Four Seasons fete featuring Sammy Hagar, and other one-of-a-kind celebrations. So, without further ado, here are some of the best Philadelphia-area weddings of the year.
