The wedding planner promised us the day of our dreams there, and it was the worst nightmare ever! They ran out of food for 70 of our guests and gave some of them leftover mashed potatoes from cocktail hour. Some of our guests were sitting/waiting for their meal for an hour and a half. We paid money to have menus created that were only followed for the first 180 of our guests. They also broke my champagne flutes before we were able to use them, their waiters were using the ""F"" word to our guests, and they forgot to put our the napkins we had brought in. I wish I never got married here, and hope that you learn from my bad experience. There are plenty of quality places in the Philly area, and the Ballroom at the Ben is not one of them. All people talk about from the wedding is that they didn't get the right food.
Pros: The actual Ballroom is elegant
Cons: They ran out of food for 70 of our guests
