The Merion is a luxury, European-designed wedding venue in Cinnaminson, New Jersey. This stunning masterpiece of modern and classic European architecture is the perfect venue for grand occasions or intimate yet lavish weddings. The Merion offers several indoor locations for your ceremony, and four unique ballrooms for your wedding reception. They also provide French-style catering and custom cake services for couples who wish to plan their entire wedding under one roof. With these flexible services, The Merion is able to create an extravagant evening you and your guests will remember for a lifetime.

Facilities and Capacity
The Merion is known in Cinnaminson for its elegant marble columns, decorative crystal chandeliers, and a classic spiral staircase that is perfect for a grand wedding entrance. Its architecture and decor exude sophistication and style. Up to 500 guests are able to attend an event in one of its four main ballrooms. Each ballroom has a separate cocktail room, a private restroom, and a bridal suite for wedding preparation. These rooms may also be used by the couple to take a private moment to themselves. The Palace and Palazzo ballrooms are inspired by a late 16th-century European style. The Skylight Ballroom is characterized by grand dome skylights, as suited to the name. The Empire ballroom emanates a classic New York style, featuring mosaic art and a 600-gallon fish tank. No matter which ballroom you choose, you can design it to fit your wedding-specific vision and your own unique style.

Services Offered
In addition to its facilities, the Merion offers full-service catering for weddings. Each menu is custom selected to meet your needs and is served by professional, white-gloved attendants. The Merion also has a Pastry Chef team on-staff to create a custom wedding cake. The cake and dinner options are made with fine and fresh ingredients to wow your guests and make your wedding day just as you envisioned it. With every couple, the Merion assigns an event planner and provides a list of recommended vendors so you can do all your event coordination in one place.

Location
You can access the Merion off US-130, near the Cinnaminson Center. It is across the street from Hanker’s Flowers.

Dream Wedding

I got married Oct. 7 and The Merion provided me with the wedding of my dreams! Holly, Nick, and all the staff were amazing! Holly made the entire year of planning smooth. Day of the wedding, none of the staff allowed me to stress! They were so accommodating that one of biggest compliments I received is how kind the staff was to my guests. I wish I could get married again just to experience the fun all over again at The Merion.

A Wonderful Partnership for our Gala

We had a wonderful experience at The Merion for our largest fundraiser held annually. This was the first time we held this event at The Merion and it went off seamlessly. Our Merion contact was Stephanie and she was phenomenal with handling our event with the details and accommodations needed to support us. Her partnership in the planning was so helpful and things ran so smoothly because of her taking into account our needs and constantly following up with us. Our Executive Team received countless amounts of compliments on the venue, the variety of the delicious food and the staff. Thank you for partnering with us for a successful event and we hope for many more!

Love this venue.

Absolutely beautiful venue. Each ballroom has its own distinctive style with numerous photo ops for lasting memories. Callie, the manager working with us was professional and very responsive to our questions and requests. We can’t say enough nice things about her and how she tried to meet our needs for the wedding day.. We definitely recommend the Merion as a wedding venue as it offered so much in physical beauty as well as sumptuous food offerings with good value. The outdoor ceremony area was also what fairytales are made of. Love this venue.

Always an Incredibly Spectacular Event hosted by The Most Professional Staff in the Tri-State Area !! Truly Magnificent Settings to be Photographed in. We are always excited to have the opportunity to be at The Fabulous Merion !!

Cindy Patrick Photography, Inc. Cindy Patrick Photography, Inc. Wedding Photographers

The Merion is one of my most absolute favorite venues to photograph a wedding! Their Skylight Ballroom is magnificent, but every room has its own grandeur and style! The staff is super courteous and friendly -- not just to the bride and groom and their guests, but to the vendors (like me:) as well, and this is most appreciated! I always feel at home when I'm there for an event, and you will too! You cannot go wrong with The Merion. Fabulous food, fantastic staff, and photogenic grounds. What more could you ask for? Nothing! They are the best in the area!
