Gloucester City offers a peaceful small-town atmosphere for your wedding, and as it is home to several historic sites, beautiful parks and waterways, and unique eateries, it is the perfect place to plan extended wedding weekends.

Also, Gloucester City is conveniently located just four miles southeast of Philadelphia, so you can easily take a day trip to visit nearby attractions, including the Philadelphia Zoo, the Liberty Bell, and the American Swedish Historical Museum.

If you want a traditional wedding ceremony, Gloucester City has several churches for you to consider, including St. Mary's Parish, Lighthouse Baptist Church, The Episcopal Church of the Ascension, and Highland Park Church of God, just to name a few.

Meanwhile, Sunshine Flowers & Gifts can help put the finishing touches on your big day with custom ceremony arrangements, reception centerpieces, aisle runner decorations, and chair decorations made with seasonal wedding flowers.

Vitale's Italian Bistro, which has over 50 years of experience serving homemade Italian favorites, offers affordable prices on catering services for rehearsal dinners and wedding receptions.

During your free time, make sure you check out Gloucester City Marina, which offers opportunities for recreational boating and fishing. You can also attend one of the city's annual events, such as the Riverfront Arts & Music Festival, relax in one of its parks, or spend a day at Gloucester City Library.
