MICHELLE + DANNY’S \ FUN AND AUTHENTIC WEDDING

Bartram’s Garden in Philadelphia

This wedding was amazing.

Michelle and Danny have such a beautiful and unique relationship.

Just being in their presence you are filled with excitement and a thirst for adventure. They met each other overseas, how fun! As a result, they spent years dating enjoying life together. Dancing. Dancing is a huge part of their relationship, because that plays a role in how they met.

 Now, they are getting married and couldn’t be more excited.

Michelle and Danny wanted the focus of their day to be truly authentic. To embrace the love of all their everyone there and have a ton ridiculous dancing. Literally all their desires came true. Here is some proof of the day. Enjoy!

Having a good time with the ladies, while on the other side of the hotel, Danny was getting ready with some guys.

They did their FIRST LOOK in a small alleyway.

They did their first look in a small alleyway close to the Marriot Hotel in Philadelphia. Was a crowded day with events going on and somehow just for their first look, the people ceased. Was a beautiful and fun moment to witness.

We perused a little bit of Center City before we went to the Gardens.

We passed about five weddings who took over Broad Street, Philadelphia. The beautiful Broad Street City Center Shot, we kept driving and hoping we would find an open median. Finally we found one and it was great. We found one and a few other cute spots around the area as well. What a beautiful day this was!

BARTRAMS GARDEN is stunning and such a great place to have a wedding.

Not only is it beautiful but the staff and food is always amazing and super friendly! Now ahead we have some great Bridal party photos. These guys were HILARIOUS!! Not your typical wedding day, but that is what makes it epic and amazing!

After the bridal party had their fun, things got a little more serious. WOW!!!

What a gorgeous ketubah they had! All their closest family huddled around with their closer friends who were their signers and they got “Jewish married!” I laughed hysterically when someone at the end said, congrats, “Your officially Jewish Married!”

A BEAUTIFUL AND EMOTIONAL MOMENT!

This wasn’t the only emotionally beautiful moments during this wedding, now we venture on to their ceremony and dear Lord did I ball my eyes out during their wedding ceremony!

JEWISH AND LEGALLY MARRIED!

Now they are both Jewish Married and Legally Married and ahhhh bliss!!! They are clearly in love and it was so much fun to be with them for a few moments after they said their “I do’s!”

Now lets let the party begin!!!!

This wedding was filled with fun, hilarious, candid and tons of personality…but, their reception was something else. I’m just going to put one word to it, and that is: Epic! They were incredible dancers and didn’t stop all night long, groomsmen rapping their toast, and a incredible Hora Dance!

Now, I learned of this really cool tradition at this wedding.

When both the bride and groom are the last to be married off in their family both the parents are honored. The mothers get flower crowns and their mothers and fathers both get thrown in the air in celebration! This is amazing, you’ll see!

Congratulations you guys! Thank you so much for letting me be apart of your wedding! It was so much fun, such an honor to be there!
