Congratulations to Christie and Mickey on a glamorous Philadelphia ballroom wedding. It was an exciting and beautiful event, and we’re thrilled to have captured moments from their love story that will be cherished for years to come. Christie and Mickey chose an absolutely perfect setting for their glamorous celebration: The Ballroom at The Ben, a truly regal and royal ballroom in Philadelphia, graced with high ceilings and an endless sense of space.
The energy on their special day seemed boundless, amplified by the incredible talents of the renowned Jellyroll who filled the air with their sought-after music. Capturing every precious moment was Ashley Gerrity, ensuring that memories were forever frozen in time. With a gathering of amazing people, overflowing love, and a fantastic performance in this glamorous Phildalphia ballroom, we can only anticipate a radiant and promising future for both Christie and Mickey. Here’s to their bright and wonderful Philadelphia ballroom wedding, a day that will forever shine in their hearts.
The City of Brotherly Love felt like the Big Easy on Theresa & Bret’s wedding day!
Theresa & Bret were married in a beautiful ceremony held at the Liberty View Ballroom of Philadelphia’s Independence Visitor Center. Although the couple currently reside in the Greater Philadelphia area, it was important to the couple that they incorporate the wedding traditions from Bret’s hometown of New Orleans into their special day. The team from Allure Films was happy to capture every last detail on film.
The Independence National Historical Park felt like the French Quarter when Theresa & Ben twirled their parasols in the air, leading a “Second Line parade” to the Ballroom at the Ben after exchanging their vows. A Second Line parade is a New Orleans wedding custom: traditionally, the “first line” consists of the wedding party and a brass band, while the rest of the wedding guests create a “second line” of revelers whipping their handkerchiefs in celebration. Not only was this a sight to see, but the band was fantastic!
Just like the first half of Theresa & Bret’s wedding, the reception at the Ballroom at the Ben was nothing short of sensational. The ballroom was completely adorned in gorgeous floral arrangements and table centerpieces by the talented artists of Lamsback Floral Decorators. Guests were served cocktails, appetizers, and a delicious main course prepared by the awesome culinary team at Finley Catering. After the couple’s first dance, the dance floor was filled with everyone moving to the tunes of yesterday and today performed by EBE’s Milan 77.
Congratulations Theresa & Bret. As they say in N’awlins “Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler!” Translation: Let the good times roll!
Being a part of one of the most memorable days of someone’s life is truly a blessing. We’ve known this loving couple for quite a while, so it was an even bigger blessing to be a part of their wedding celebration! Nikki and Bart shared their beautiful wedding day, among family and friends, at the Crystal Tea Room. This lovely location could not have been any more stunning! We were truly moved by the heartfelt words shared by the bride’s father. You can hear some of these words in the preview below. As always, it was a pleasure to team up with the awesome team over at Philip Gabriel Photography. We were so glad to be a part of such an awesome day. A big thank you to Nikki and Bart for including us in all of the wedding bliss. Congrats newlyweds, from the entire Allure Films team!
