We had the best wedding experience at StarBolt!
My partner and I just got married here and could not be happier with how everything turned out. We had a smaller, standing ceremony...
in the outdoor courtyard, followed by an unforgettable party with our friends and family.
From the start, Felicia and the team were absolutely amazing to work with. They were incredibly communicative, supportive, and helped bring our vision to life .. and then execute it the night of!
The food was fantastic, the atmosphere was exactly what we were hoping for, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about the venue. We honestly wouldn't change a thing .. it was everything we hoped for and more!!

Star|Bolt is perfection! We hosted our wedding rehersal dinner and welcome drinks here in September and everything was amazing. Felicia is a dream to work with, she never said "no"...
to any of our crazy requests, only came back with a plan of how she could make it happen. She made planning a breeze and execution was flawless! Food was delicious and there was plenty of it. The room fit our 30 person dinner and opened up to host about 150 people for welcome drinks. We chose to have the karaoke DJ come in for the last hour and it was a HIT! We utilized the main room, side bar, and outdoor space. It was the best way to start off our wedding weekend! Can't say enough good things about the space and entire team!

We hosted our wedding at StarBolt on 10/4/2025 and had the absolute best experience. We did not have a wedding planner and Felicia, the event coordinator, was a breeze to work with...
. She was quick to respond, never stressed, and genuinely made everything really easy. Felicia and the team at Starbolt really understood that we wanted a wedding that was about the people and the things we loved (live band, flowers, and the Phillies game) and not about tradition only for tradition’s sake.
The food was delicious and really impressed us and our guests. We were able to pick signature cocktails and loved having 3 bars for our guests.
We would recommend anyone looking at Starbolt as a venue to have their wedding here!

I hosted a surprise engagement party at StarBolt in Sept. 2024 and it was a fantastic time! Felicia was super helpful in planning the party and getting everything set up the day of...
the event. All of my guests kept complimenting the food/venue and had a great time at the party. After consultation, they were even willing to make some customized food options for the party which was awesome!! I will definitely be back another time, but if you are in need of a friendly venue with great food/drinks and atmosphere for your next private event, I'd highly recommend you checking out StarBolt! You are in great hands with Felicia and the StarBolt team!!
