Imagine the perfect<\/em> Fall day. October is on its way out, the falling leaves rustle as a breeze makes its way through the streets. It\u2019s one of the last warm days before November rushes in to take over. The air smells fresh and crisp. The sun quickly sets, giving way to a dark, moody night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Okay, now that I\u2019ve got you feeling these vibes\u2026 you know exactly<\/em> what Olivia and Dominic\u2019s Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Intimate Fall wedding felt like. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Wedding Venue & Details<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Olivia and Dominic\u2019s wedding took place at the historic Cairnwood Estate in the small town of Bryn-Athyn, just outside of Philadelphia. The estate featured beautiful gardens full of crispy leaves, dressing suites, and a two-story vaulted ceiling in the great hall. This wedding was the perfect mix of luxurious yet intimate. The venue itself is still one of my favorites to this day. But, so was the wedding party\u2019s attire. The groomsmen wore the classiest black tuxedos. Wait, there\u2019s more. The bridesmaids wore shades of burnt orange in mismatched patterns. I mean, wait until you see these!! They had the perfect fall wedding color palette. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Somehow, not even the venue or the wedding party\u2019s attire was my favorite part of the day. Looking back on Olivia and Dominic\u2019s wedding to this day, tears still come to my eyes as I reminisce on their heartfelt first look. After seeing each other for the first time, they laughed and cried through their private letter readings. It was truly such an honor to capture such an intimate, private moment for them. After knocking out some romantics, it was time to head to their ceremony location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ceremony Space<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Olivia and Dominic tied the knot at St. Paul\u2019s Episcopal Church in the Chestnut Hill District. As if the church wasn\u2019t enough to drop my jaw, I was able to spend a bit of time exploring the area. The Chestnut Hill District boasts historic charm, Victorian townhomes, and breathtaking mansions. I felt like I was walking through the streets of Diagon Alley on my way to Hogwarts. Once this sweet couple was pronounced husband and wife, we were able to sneak away for some champagne toasts and classic car shots. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Party Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Back at the Cairnwood Estate, the guests celebrated their hearts out in honor of Olivia and Dominic. After a candlelight dinner and the sweetest, most touching speeches and first dances, it was time for an outfit change. Olivia slipped into a stunning, sleek satin dress to make sure<\/em> she could dance all night long with her husband. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s safe to say that I could go on and on about this incredible Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Intimate Fall wedding. But instead, I\u2019ll let the photos speak the rest for me. Have I mentioned lately how lucky I am to have this as my job?!<\/em> If you\u2019re ready to make some magic for your wedding day, let\u2019s connect<\/a>.
