Chestnut Hill Wedding

Philadelphia Wedding Photography | Josh and Lauren's Fairmount Park Wedding

*Posted by Matt*

Weddings at Valley Green Inn are always fun for us. The park, the venue, everything is just so picturesque. Add in perfect weather and start to understand how Lauren and Josh's Fairmount Park wedding was last fall!

Lauren and her two bridesmaids had their hair and makeup done at Spa Elysium-Fringe in Chestnut Hill, then went back to the Chestnut Hill Hotel to get dressed. The bridesmaids wore knee-length gray bridesmaids dresses, while Lauren wore a beautiful Roman inspired, off the shoulder wedding gown.

Down the hall in the boys' room, Josh had super hero t-shirts ready for his groomsmen to wear under their suits, along with accompanying tie clips!

While the girls made their way to Valley Green Inn for portraits, the boys stopped off down the street to the Iron Hill Brewery for portraits...and a well deserved beer.

Once they had their first look on the bridge near Valley Green Inn (and Josh was sufficiently blown away by his beautiful bride-to-be!), we walked all around the grounds of Valley Green to capture some lovely photos, made even more dreamy by the warm fall colors.

Josh and Lauren said "I do" as the sun set, and danced the night away surrounded by the gold accents of their wedding reception!

Some details we loved were their ombre wedding cake, irish champagne flutes, and a pumpkin with their faces carved into it!

They ended the night as uniquely as their day had been, with LOTS of glowsticks! Glowsticks at a wedding, you say? That's right. They made it truly a fun night to remember.
