Phil and Jessica were in search of a Ballroom at Ellis Preserve wedding photographer when they came across our company’s website. After discussing, they hired our crew at J&J Studios for their big wedding day.
The special day took place on a warm June afternoon, and our team enjoyed it immensely. Below, I will share some of the captured photos, give you a brief background on the couple, and tell you about their wedding day.
TIME TO GET READY FOR THE BIG DAY
Phil and Jessica began the day by getting ready at the Desmond Hotel in Malvern, Pennsylvania. This hotel was very nice and accommodating to the couple.
Our lead wedding photographer, John Ryan, and his assistants arrived and began photographing the couple getting ready separately. This was a fun way to start the day, as the couple got ready with their friends and families and even exchanged letters to each other.
Everyone was so excited and could not wait to watch the couple say, “I do.” Watching them read their letters was a sentimental moment, which they both will probably remember for the rest of their lives.
MEET THE NEWLYWEDS: PHIL AND JESSICA
This couple has been together for almost nine years. They are very fun and passionate about each other. While working with the couple, we found out a lot about them and would be glad to share the details with you.
Jessica and Phil met through a mutual friend who tried unsuccessfully many different times to set them up over the years, but it never worked.
However, they had a random encounter on Halloween night in 2012, and the rest is history. They decided that their timing was perfect, and they exchanged phone numbers.
THE RECEPTION AT THE BALLROOM AT ELLIS PRESERVE
After the wedding ceremony ended, everyone made their way to the reception, which was held at the Ballroom at Ellis Preserve in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania. This location is where everyone let loose and had a good time.
The newly married couple and their loved ones celebrated this milestone together. Phil and Jessica were very happy with how the day turned out, and they had a sense of relief when they made it to the reception and realized that the day was a success.
The reception was a huge achievement for the couple, as it meant that their dream day finally came true. They were thrilled! When we asked them how they felt about their wedding, they replied that they could not have asked for more. In addition to good food, drinks, cake, and music, the room was also full of pure joy and love.
VENDORS USED FOR THE WEDDING
The newly married couple used a few different vendors to make their day successful. They raved over each one’s kindness and helpfulness.
