A toast to 50 remarkable years of Appleford! 🥂 We had the pleasure of catering the Main Line Estate’s 50th Anniversary dinner, which was a testament to the enduring charm of this historic venue and the people behind its success. Appleford is managed by a volunteer committee comprised of property neighbors, residents of Lower Merion Township, and other dedicated individuals who are passionate about keeping the house and grounds running and looking beautiful. The group celebrated its milestone anniversary with a lovely dinner in the tented terrace. Cheers to fifty years of Appleford, and many more to come!
Concerts at The College is a series of live performances featuring renowned musicians in historic Mitchell Hall within College of Physicians of Philadelphia. The most recent iteration featured The Philadelphia Orchestra musicians Juliette Kang, Christine Lim, Kirsten Johnson, Priscilla Lee, & Elizabeth Hainen. The evening included music for the season inspired by stories of Edgar Allen Poe, as well as Bela Bartok’s Third Quartet, which evokes the melancholy and eerie atmosphere of nature in the dark.

Events at the Historical Society of Pennsylvania create a personalized experience for your guests, with curated displays of historic documents specifically tailored to your event. It is a thrill for guests to view priceless treasures such as the First Draft of The Constitution from 1787 or a Printer’s Proof of The Declaration of Independence from 1776. When FINRA hosted their board dinner at The Historical Society of Pennsylvania, displays in the Reading Room tapped into the history of banking in America. There were drawings & engravings of the First Bank of the United States, handwritten letters from the Biddle Family Papers, and photographs documenting the run on banks. Other various documents covered the founding of the Bank of North America in 1781, ‘The Bank War’ between banking opponents Andrew Jackson and Nicholas Biddle, and Jay Cooke’s work in financing the Union war effort during the Civil War. A truly inspired journey through history! https://cbdevents.com/Venues/historical-society-of-pennsylvania/
Another successful event at @historicalpa! . HSP’s newly-renovated Patterson Room was host to @lifescienceexhibits Research Supplier Product Show for researchers at @jeffersonuniv!

A 💞whirlwind💞 weekend of wonderful weddings! We had the honor of being part of several wedding celebrations this weekend, including Mitra & Bryan’s gorgeous reception at The College of Physicians of Philadelphia. The couple included a sofreh, a Persian wedding tradition of presenting a spread of delicacies and beautiful decorative items each with its own particular symbolism for the marriage. Fun fact: Bryan, the groom, is the cousin of our accountant, James!
