From the reviews
I can't say enough good things about the Corinthian Yacht Club. Danielle and her amazing team made our big day so memorable! We were at ease the entire time because they were patient, anticipated our needs, and were amazing to be around (even during the most intense rainstorm before the ceremony!).
My husband and I just had our wedding here on June 6th and I can’t say enough good things. From the time Danielle took on my wedding, I knew we were in good hands. She was so accommodating to me and my whole wedding party the day of the wedding. She kept checking on us throughout the day.
My husband and I got married here on 5-22-26. From the moment we booked the place to day of, Danielle the coordinator, was so responsive, so helpful and really made every decision stress free. This venue is a hidden gem. So beautiful, so elegant and this venue has a lot of charm.
Attended a wedding. Awesome indoor/outdoor venue. Wedding was on premises overlooking Delaware river. Drinks and appetizers outside as well, followed by dinner inside still overlooking sunset on the river. Then desserts, more drinks, and dancing outside.
Getting married at Corinthian Yacht Club of Philadelphia
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
