Springtime Finds

Wow, "time is a jet!"  I can't believe it's already July & my last post was for Easter.  I've been keeping busy over the past few months & coming across lots of great Philadelphia venues & event nuggets in my travels, so I'll catch you up with my discoveries starting with my Springtime Finds.

In April I had a great time volunteering some of my time to the Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce to assist with setup for the Annual Cherry Blossom Festival's Sakura Sunday celebration. Setup was a breeze & it was a beautiful day so I had a wonderful time exploring the celebration and scenery once I had finished my duties.

The grounds of the Horticulture Center are absolutely gorgeous and the perfect setting for a garden party or wedding. There are also options for indoor ceremonies & functions http://www.weddings-delval.com/horticulturecenter/.

While walking the grounds I came across the Pavilion in the Trees: a treehouse like structure 24 feet above ground.

I'm sure that space could serve as an exceptionally unique setting for the Adventurous Couple looking to host a small but Unforgettable wedding surrounded by nature!
