The NSCDA/PA owns its Headquarters House located at 1630 Latimer Street in Philadelphia.

The building was designed by the Philadelphia Architectural firm Ritter and Shay. Marion Coffin, one of the first female landscape architects, was instrumental in desgining the garden which is a four seasons delight to all who use the house. Headquarters is the setting for Philadelphia Stated Meetings, the meetings of the Board of Managers and its Committees, and for the Society's Annual meeting. The archives of the Society, including lineage papers of our members, both living and deceased, are housed here as well. Headquarters is also available to the general public to rent for weddings and events.

We recently celebrated our wedding at Colonial Dames, and I can't express enough how incredible Adrianna was throughout the entire process. From our very first meeting, she was exceptionally thoughtful and accommodating, always going above and beyond to ensure our vision came to life. Adrianna’s attention to detail made all the difference. She listened to our ideas and provided valuable suggestions, making us feel supported every step of the way. On the big day, the space looked absolutely stunning! Adrianna transformed it into a beautiful and inviting atmosphere that exceeded our expectations. We truly could not have done it without her. Her dedication and passion for her work shone through, and we felt so grateful to have her by our side. If you’re looking for someone who will make your event extraordinary, I highly recommend reaching out to Adrianna at Colonial Dames! Thank you for making our wedding day unforgettable!

The wedding package we purchased included the entire BnB (6 rooms) for the bridal party, as well as the grounds to host our ceremony and/or reception (we did both!). Brad and Cindy did an amazing job of making sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying our stay, and the grounds ended up being absolutely stunning for our wedding day. They also have extras available to add-on to your package, as needed (tent, outdoor patio heaters, pew seating, and a super cute shutter altar set up!). Normally, venues in the Chadds Ford/Brandywine area are super expensive, but this one was not only affordable but very worthwhile!!! Thank you, Brad and Cindy!!

Rosewood Farms 

4.7

Elkton, MD
  • Up to 275 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor

Originally a cow and poultry farm, the previous owners had run the property as a winery before Rick purchased it in May of 2017. After seeing the property, its luscious landscape, and the rustic charm of the original buildings, Rick had a vision. He saw the property transformed into a modern, chic space that maintained the history and character of the original farm. More importantly, he imagined bringing others’ visions to life with a beautiful and unique setting for weddings and private events.

My (now!) husband, Matt and I, had our DREAM wedding at Rosewood this winter. From intro tour to married - the entire process was so easy and fun. Their preferred vendor list is perfect - does a lot of the upfront work for you. All of my vendors knocked it out of the park. Not to mention, how GORGEOUS is Rosewood? Beautiful and HUGE suite to get ready in with all of my girls. The guys had a blast playing pool and video games while getting ready. We had so much gush over the cocktail hour space from our guests - which is conveniently both indoor and outdoor friendly. We danced the night away during the reception. So much room for everyone to mingle. The space is a blank slate that gives you so much room to make the décor your own. The photo booth was one of the highlights for us, we loved getting all of the photos after the fact. Have your wedding at Rosewood, it's the best and easiest decision you'll make!

Our charming and picturesque venue is the perfect location to create unforgettable moments, be it a wedding, anniversary celebration, or any other special occasion. When the building was initially constructed over a century ago, it was designed as a Presbyterian chapel in a completely different location. Dismantled and purchased in 1907; the remaining materials were moved to its current home. Today, it has a capacity of 120 guests and can comfortably host both intimate and extravagant celebrations.

Not only is the venue a beautiful space, but the staff is hands down our favorite to work with. From the moment you walk in to the moment you leave they are so accommodating and go above and beyond for every client. They have no problem going to the extra mile to make every event one that you'll always remember.
