Crystal Tea Room Wedding Photographer: Jessica + Josh

Sep 17, 2019

Happy Tuesday, friends! Yes, I managed to get through all of my September weddings before Wyatt makes his appearance….I was a little nervous about it, but we’re still waiting on him to arrive and it feels SO good to know I wrapped up all of my client responsibilities before he was born! Now the countdown is on, and we wait:)

I was SO overjoyed to be a part of Jess + Josh’s day. They were dream clients to work with from the very beginning, I just love everything about them. They are so kind, thoughtful, and laid back. I always appreciate it SO much when clients trust me 100%, and that’s exactly what I got from them. To see SO many friends and family surround them in so much love on their wedding day just confirmed what I already knew – they’re an amazing pair, meant to be married to each other.

Jess + Josh were married at the Crystal Tea Room in center city Philadelphia – it was the perfect venue for their day! We also lucked out with the most amazing, almost fall-like weather for their wedding. It made my heart so happy to be a part of such a gorgeous wedding for such a beautiful couple…I loved every minute of it! Jess + Josh, congrats again!!!

Here are a few of my favorites from their day, and make sure to view their SLIDESHOW for more wedding pictures!

All of the emerald jewelry was Jess’s mom’s jewelry, I love how she paid tribute to her mom in such a personal way:

Are these not the most gorgeous invitations?! I’ve never seen a mirrored invitation, and I was obsessed!

Jess, you’re such a beautiful person, inside + out:)

Time for the first look, always my favorite part of the day!

We wandered around City Hall, The Ritz and Broad Street for their photos – so quintessentially Philly!

I loved Jess’s bridal party too! I’m so excited to shoot Katherine’s wedding next year!

Crystal Tea Room – it’s just so beautiful inside!

I love that they had all of their bridal party and family gather around them in prayer before their first kiss as husband and wife. It’s little details like this that make weddings so unique to each couple!
