Capacity & Layout

The Merion offers four distinct ballrooms that give couples genuine flexibility for celebrations of nearly any size. The Empire Ballroom, inspired by New York City during the Roaring Twenties, features a faux night sky with window lighting, a spacious 1,100-square-foot dance floor, and glittering chandeliers, while the grand Palazzo Ballroom, with European influence, boasts 23-foot ceilings, a granite dance floor, towering marble columns lining the perimeter, crystal chandeliers, and color-changing ceilings, accommodating up to 600 guests. That range lets couples choose the room that fits their guest count and style, from an intimate celebration to a grand affair for hundreds. The elegant marble columns, crystal chandeliers, and classic spiral staircase give guests a stunning arrival and grand entrance throughout the property. That combination of four themed ballrooms, spacious dance floors, and a capacity scaling up to 600 makes The Merion suited to weddings from mid-size to grand, keeping the celebration luxurious and elegant from the ceremony through the last dance in one impressive South Jersey venue.

Amenities

The Merion pairs its luxurious ballrooms with genuinely full-service, all-inclusive amenities. As an all-inclusive venue, The Merion offers full-service catering for weddings, with each menu custom selected to meet the couple’s needs and served by professional, white-gloved attendants, so the dining and service are genuine highlights. The venue’s decades of experience show in its supportive coordinators and staff, who consistently earn praise for making planning stress-free and keeping the day running smoothly, along with the venue’s ability to handle large events with ease. The four themed ballrooms, elegant marble columns, crystal chandeliers, and classic spiral staircase give photographers a luxurious, glamorous range of backdrops.

Location & Getting There

The Merion sits at 1301 Route 130 South in Cinnaminson, New Jersey, in South Jersey just across the Delaware River from Philadelphia. That location is a genuine advantage for a wedding weekend, since guests coming from across South Jersey and the Philadelphia metro have an easy drive, and Philadelphia International Airport is within reach for anyone flying in, while Cinnaminson and the surrounding area, along with nearby Philadelphia, offer abundant hotels, restaurants, and attractions for out-of-town guests. The South Jersey setting, close to Philadelphia, keeps everything convenient and easy to plan around. Yet the venue’s grand ballrooms, marble columns, and crystal chandeliers give the celebration a luxurious, elevated feel once you arrive. That combination of a luxurious, all-inclusive venue with a convenient Cinnaminson location near Philadelphia is a big part of what draws couples to The Merion.
