June 6, 2017. It was a gorgeous day in center city Philadelphia. We arrive at the gorgeous Racquet Club of Philadelphia and entered 2 grand doors that opened into the wedding space. It was gorgeous. The architecture always takes my breath away! Bridal prep was quickly underway and the bride and her maids were tending to their hair, make up and of course, selfies!

Once dressed and ready to start the day, we started with back to back first looks between the bride and her father, followed by Krystle’s first look with her handsome groom-to-be, Greg. So many happy tears were jam packed into these few short moments. We toured the city stopping at some of the most iconic spots in Philly to snap a few photos. Each stop brought on a new roar of congratulations from passer-byers.

The ceremony was short, quiet, intimate and candle lit. During cocktail hour Krystle dazzled everything with a dress change from her lace gown to a gorgeous silk party dress. The guests were quick to their feet after dinner to dance the night away and EVEN partake in some wedding reception GYMNASTICS! Just you wait to see!

I can’t believe we have already celebrated your 1 year anniversary you two….congratulations and enjoy your belated blog post of gorgeous memories! : )

Once they were dressed to impress, it was time for a first look with her father, and then her husband-to-be. 

There is always a photo bomber when you are shooting in the city…at least this guy was sneaky about it!

After some lovely formals in Rittenhouse Square and Broad Street, we headed inside for a candlelight ceremony. It was beautiful and intimate!

What a gorgeous background for the FIRST KISS as husband and wife!

CONGRATS TO THE HAPPY COUPLE!!! Time to party!

For the first time together in public, Mr. and Mrs. Pera!

When your bride owns a Tumble Bus and is a master gymnast, handstands are BOUND to happen on wedding day. Good thing she wore her gym shorts under her silk gown! : )
