The Love | Rittenhouse Square Wedding Venue in Philadelphia

The Love is a Rittenhouse Square wedding venue by Aimee Olexy. It’s a bilevel sanctuary on 18th Street where stone walls, arched ceilings, large windows, and warm candlelight create one of the most genuinely romantic restaurant settings in Philadelphia. Part of the Starr Restaurants family, The Love has been one of the most consistently sought-after spaces for rehearsal dinners, intimate receptions, and small weddings in the neighborhood since it opened. Up to 150 guests across indoor, outdoor, and upper-level seating. A culinary program built around regional flavors, locally sourced ingredients, and the kind of warm, honest hospitality that has been celebrated.

The Setting

The Love's interior gives events a natural flow with stone walls and arched ceilings on the main floor, large windows flooding the space with natural light during the day and warm candlelight at night, and an upper level that creates an intimate gathering space separate from the main dining room. The outdoor patio extends the experience when the season allows. The whole space has a warmth that most restaurants spend years trying to manufacture and never quite achieve.

  • Up to 150 guests — indoor, outdoor, and upper-level seating combined

  • Bilevel interior — stone walls, arched ceilings, large windows, warm candlelight

  • Outdoor patio for warmer months
