A few weeks ago I shared Lauren and Jesse’s intimate wedding photos. Well, today is the day to share their wedding celebration Ridgeland Mansion photos that happen exactly 1 year after their intimate wedding. So not only we celebrated their wedding but also their 1st wedding anniversary. Another exciting part of the wedding was that in this short year Lauren and Jesse’s family grew so we also were able to welcome and celebrate their son Jack being there too! Jack was around 6 weeks then! He was such a precious little person! He was able to join us for a few photos too!
The day was sunny, and happy, and perfect! The mansion was charming inside and out! I am so glad that Lauren and Jesse have such good taste and chose this beautiful venue for their outdoor wedding in Philly. And it’s not only their good taste that I love about them. Their sweet, fun, easy going personalities are definitely my favorite!!! As you scroll through the photos you will see it in many photos.
The ceremony was beautiful! The reception was fun with live music! Everything was SOOO beautifully decorated and arranged! I enjoyed the day so so much!!! The only thing I am sad about is that now that Lauren and Jesse had their 2nd wedding, I don’t think they will be planning any ‘wedding’ themed celebrations any time soon again haha. So the sad part is that I won’t get to experience the beauty that they create in the events they plan! I guess we have these beautiful memories to look back at! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
