Different Types of Spaces Available

One of the most frequently asked questions that we receive from our couples who are planning to get married is “Will the venue have enough space for our guests?” Therefore, I wanted to be sure to tell you about the Rittenhouse Hotel’s different spaces that are available. These different spaces have been created to meet the wide range of every couple’s wedding needs.

The Grand Ballroom is a very large space that is meant for hosting a wedding ceremony, reception, or other event that consists of a lot of guests. If you know that you need to accommodate a lot of guests, you should consider looking at the Grand Ballroom because it will provide you with a lot of space for guests to dance and party the night away. If you are someone who is looking for a smaller, more intimate setting for your wedding or celebration, go with the Rittenhouse Hotel’s Parkview Suite.
