Terrain Gardens Wedding | Chelsea and Travis | Devon Wedding Photography

Chelsea and Travis had the wedding the couples dream of.  A crisp Autumn day, lush colors all around, and a warmth that hits you like a cloud when you walk in the reception room (lots of dancing bodies will do that!).  While a rain free day would have been ideal, we were armed with umbrellas, great spirits, and just enough breaks in the storm to take advantage of the space at Terrain Gardens in Devon, PA.

 

Having known Chelsea for a few years, from all of those late nights working for Anthropologie, I was confident that the details of her wedding day would be top notch.  The wood and metal accents, lush soft color pallet, and warm glow of 1000 candles, combined with her and Travis’ classically elegant attire, created an atmosphere that could overwhelm the senses!  Guests were greeted with hot cider, fire pits, and Terrain’s top notch food (flower pot bread included!).

 

I could ramble on and on about the details of this wedding, but if you strip it all away, it comes down to Chelsea and Travis.  This day was them.  Every element contained a glimpse into their love.  They never stopped looking at each other, or holding hands, and I’m sure they’ll be doing just that in 50 years.

 

I’m so excited to be able to deliver their gallery to them, and I am happy to share some of their story with everyone else as well!

Upper Merion Christ Church Wedding | Clair and Philip | Philadelphia Wedding Photography

Clair and Philip are pure joy.  From the minute our day began, they radiated.  Clair and Philip had their ceremony and reception at the historic Christ Church in Upper Merion.  It’s a hidden gem located in Bridgeport, with the highway suspended in the air nearby.  The old sanctuary has a warm glow and well worn pews which creak as curious heads turn to watch the bride.  The reception hall is a blank canvass.  Clair and Philip, with the help of their families, opted for a DIY wedding, and their romantic and airy theme was perfect for this hall.

If I am being honest, I cry at every wedding.  And it’s not pretty.  How can I help it, though?  Weddings are BEAUTIFUL.  A true celebration of life and love and family.  I usually spend a year communicating with my couples.  I discover their favorite TV shows, how many pets they have, and the fears and excitements about getting married.  And then I witness their hard work pay off on their wedding day.  It’s hard not to be invested.

However, I have never cried more at a wedding than at Philip and Clair’s in July.  The tears started flowing the moment Clair and her father shared a first look, continued through Clair’s perfectly timed grand entrance, and into the night as the couple slow danced with stars in their eyes.

As a vendor, I must say that I am biased in thinking that I have the best couples ever.  But it’s hard not to believe that when they treat you with such love and warmth.  Clair and Philip, it was a joy and an honor to be a part of your day.  Wishing you the very best in your lifetime of happiness!
