Rainy, Fall Wedding at the Horticulture Center at Fairmount Park

If you’ve already skipped ahead, I know what you’re thinking… “Uhm, this certainly doesn’t look like it was raining?!”

Well, it absolutely was. Not a downpour, but for most of Jen and Matt’s wedding day on October 1, 2022, Mother Nature was providing a steady drizzle. This made the entire Horticulture Center at Fairmount Park look so green and lush. And provided a stunning “rain plan” for what was supposed to be an outdoor ceremony.

But the true rock stars were this amazing couple, their photographers (Asya and Georgi from Asya Photography), and the couple’s group of VIPs. They fearlessly braved the rain for photos and the result…. well, I’ll let you be the judge.

Six of my Favorite Wedding Venues in the Lehigh Valley, Bucks-Mont, and Philadelphia areas

It’s been a few years since I did a roundup of some of favorite wedding venues in the area. The first one I did was in 2015, followed by another in 2018. Clearly, this is long overdue for an update as we’ve worked at several absolutely INCREDIBLE venues since then.

This list includes some unique and beautiful venues throughout the Lehigh Valley, Bucks-Mont, and Philadelphia areas that I love working with.
