We’re changing it up this week with a #TBT post instead.  We’re revisiting a favorite of ours from Cescaphe Event Group’s venue Down Town Club…meet Nicole and Michael!

And you’re not crazy, if you recognize a few of these faces it’s because some are past clients and bridesmaids of ours!  In fact, that’s how Nicole came to learn about our work.  Thanks Christina & Adam!

Both Nicole and Michael prepared for their big day at the Sheraton Society Hill and decided to wait until the aisle to lay eyes on each other…

Fast forward a few short hours and we’re finally at that moment in St. Rita’s of Cascia where they’ll lay eyes on each other for the first time…nothing like a long walk to build up even more emotion!

The ceremony was beautiful and we couldn’t pass on the opportunity to photograph some moments of the newlyweds at their gorgeous church.

We had talked about a few spots for portraits between the ceremony and reception…first up was Broad Street in front of City Hall and next the steps of the Union League.

We had a bridal party that was pretty much up for anything and we took full advantage.  Next stop was the First Bank of Philadelphia, and probably our favorite of the day.  Its just something about those columns…certainly doesn’t hurt to have a perfect couple to photograph either!

We couldn’t miss Cescaphe Event Group’s famous cocktail hour so we made sure to get everyone back in time to enjoy.

Everything about Down Town Club screams classic elegance.  The perfect backdrop to a black tie event.  We can’t say enough about the staff and entire experience, they’re really second to none.

Guests were on their feet from beginning to end, and a special mummers performance really got the crowd going.    It truly was an awesome event.

Congratulations Nicole and Michael! It was such a pleasure getting to know you both and having the opportunity to photograph this incredible moment in your life…here’s to many many more in your lifetime ahead.
