Last week, I shared Morgan and Nick getting ready and their ceremony at Old St. Joe’s Church. Today I will share all their gorgeous details, the fun, the tears and the laughter at the reception.
Beautiful Blooms did amazing bouquets in pinks and jewel tones. I especially loved the 3 different centerpieces they did. Tall and organic with branches, flowers and candles, loose and earthy with long flowerbeds and then medium height with bouquets of various tones in different vases. I’m sure the photos are better than my description. I also loved that they used tables of varying sizes, which helped add visual interest on the ground. The Franklin Institute has an elegant marble foyer, with large pillars, archways and Ben himself presiding. All the architecture brings your eyes up, so the tables really helped you be excited about your eye level view.

Wedding Paper Divas again with placecards and table numbers. Beautiful watercolors that match everything so well. These elements are often forgotten but this is where you can tie everything together and share your personality. Even though they live in the city, they much prefer flowers and trees and pretty things.
They chose to donate to PAWS instead of favors. This is a way to do something meaningful on your wedding day and add more personal touches. I mean really, what do you do with that little favor anyway. I’d rather help a dog than eat a chocolate and gain weight.
The thing I love about the Institute besides it’s amazing grand foyer is that guests can actually go into the exhibits and have fun. How often do you go to the science museum without a kid? Here is your chance!
Now onto the partying!
City Rhythm Orchestra provided the music! They kept it rocking and swinging all night long.
To see more of this wedding, check out their slideshow. Be patient it takes a little while to load. Feel free to leave a comment or contact me about your upcoming wedding.
LOVE these – just gorgeous!
Jen- Thank you great working with you too! The room was gorgeous.
Anni- You are so sweet. Yes, that was the lighting in the room. This is why lighting is so important. it made the photos gorgeous. Luckily TFI has built in lighting and took the time to invest in specialized lighting to enhance the space. This room would be dark, ugly and just vast if there was no lighting.
Thanks gals!
This is an incredible venue!!! Was the lighting all pretty and purple like that, or is that the photography? Either way, so pretty!
Love the photos, Sophia! It was great working with you on Morgan and Nick’s special day.
