One of the best parts of a Friday wedding is having all weekend to explore Philadelphia! We love this city and hope to share some of our favorite and classic spots to check out & make a weekend out of it!

Neighborhoods

Rittenhouse Square: Check out Ilene's neighborhood, a quick Uber ride from the wedding hotels. We love the Farmers Market on Saturdays 9-2.

Walnut Street: Shopping and great restaurants like Parc, A Kitchen, and The Love

Gayborhood: Lots of fun bars to explore

Downtown Manayunk: With a car and a little extra time on your hands, Jeremy’s former neighborhood has plenty to offer from shopping, to coffee shops that double as plant stores, to walks along the canal
