A Snowy Valentine’s Day Romance: Lauren and Jamie’s Rittenhouse Wedding

Posted on April 9th, 2015 in Weddings by Gabe Fredericks

We know brides getting married next February are already busily planning their big day. For the last two years, Valentine’s Day has fallen on the weekend and 2016 will be another Valentine’s Day Weekend. What an awesome weekend to celebrate a couple’s love and commitment to one another!

This year, Lauren and Jamie celebrated their wedding on Valentine’s Day. They celebrated their ceremony at St. John The Evangelist near Center City and their reception at the Rittenhouse Hotel. Lauren and Jamie were genuinely lovely people and we were so excited to be able to capture this day for them!

Getting married on the holiday for love can make it difficult to avoid being cliche, but with Lauren’s taste in light pink accent colors and white bridesmaid dresses, her wedding made out to be an elegant tribute to the day as well as an amazing celebration for her and Jamie’s relationship.

Some of our favorite moments…

We were so excited when we walked outside the Rittenhouse to see that the snowflakes had just begun to flutter down. We loved capturing special moments such as when Lauren and Jamie’s first glance, with the magical touch of little snowflakes falling all around them and dusted on the ground!

We also loved having local celebrity and former Phillies player, Shane Victorino, in the wedding party! It was so fun seeing him goof around and celebrate with Jamie and Lauren on their big day!

Thank you Lauren and Jamie for choosing us to document your wedding day! We loved working with you and your families and capturing the amazing moments you shared on this incredibly important day. We look forward to photographing you and your family in the future!
