Explore church rental spaces in Philadelphia

When people begin their search for a space rental, they usually think of party halls, wedding venues, and other spaces. But have you ever considered booking space inside of a church? Local churches have a lot to offer. They are flexible and affordable, with many including a large list of amenities that make community events, weddings, classes, and other activities easy to do. Churches are great venues for events because much of their space is unused most of the week. Sundays and certain weekdays are when a church will see the most activity. Therefore, they are highly flexible when it comes to weekday event bookings. Overbrook Presbyterian Church offers several church spaces for community events in Philadelphia. You have your choice of booking their Fellowship Hall, with its proscenium theater stage and 30 foot skylights. With seating for up to 160 guests, it's ideal for meetings, social banquets, and other events. Overlook also offers their chapel, kitchen, meeting hall, and sanctuary for event rentals.

Church spaces with parking in Philadelphia

Many churches in Philadelphia will include parking in their list of amenities. Check out the First Church of the Brethren, located in nearby Wyndmoor, PA. Their lot has parking for up to 200 guests. The facilities include a sanctuary, social hall, and kitchen alongside the parking lot. It's a spacious venue that's ideal for large weddings, social mixers, and other events. Parking lots can even be used as the main staging area for the venue. Community activities like fundraisers for local schools or the church itself are traditionally held in church parking lots. Car washes, barbecues, bake sales, and more are easy to hold in a large parking lot. If you're an active member of the church community you may even enjoy a discounted or free booking of the church space and parking lot!

Discover church spaces for weddings in Philadelphia

Churches are a traditional place to hold a wedding ceremony. They are sacred spaces and reify the bonds being celebrated during a wedding. Churches are also far more cost-effective compared to many wedding event centers. Philadelphia churches include intimate chapels in the heart of downtown with centuries of history and rural churches with many acres of space for the wedding. If you've been a member of the church community for years, you can even have your favorite pastor officiate the ceremony, making it that much more special to you and your loved ones!
