Alex
Alex's Bar Mitzvah
Beth Shalom and the Philadelphia Zoo
There are very few clients for whom I will wake up at 7:30. Actually, I was there at 7:30.
And it was worth it.

Kristine and Andrew
I could add more photos, but I'll stop.
Kristine and Andrew October 13th, Downtown Marriott.
Andrew's dad performed the ceremony. Kristine's dad played piano while Andrew's mom sang the Lord's Prayer. It's like the parents wanted them to get married or something.
There was an itinerary. And it included Rocky. And Star Wars. And some funny sister/brother dance that was a hoot. No Macarena did the fabulous DJ thing in her fantastic outfit.
Then the Macedonian Cake Dance. But first, the Dance with Alcohol, Money, and Lamb. That's not what it's called. But that's what it was. And it was fun!
The blessing was sung by Kristine's father's choir. Beautiful.
Glass angel favors. Gerber Daisies. Roses given to family who had lost a loved one. Andrew's dad and all the people he had married. Kristine's mom and the Big Man (I know your name)

Michelle and Patrick
October 6th at Auletto's.
I can't believe that an autumn wedding would be so warm. Michelle had the forethought to have sleeves... and didn't need them. But it was a beautiful sunny day!
I was greeted by Michelle's charming nephew. Then was charmed by the whole family.
Michelle remembered her parents by having their photos in a locket in her bouquet. We took photos outside the family home, now that it's going up for sale. Patrick's father's photo graced the table with the photo of Michelle's parents and brother. It's so good to see two people who are there for each other through events. And the day was happy and light, not sad.
And their priest. Great guy. Kept the ceremony relevant, yet funny as anything. There was a lot of giggles and "i can't believe he said that". I like this guy. Auletto's has his name. I need to get it.
There was an obvious absence of some sort of spoon that I had heard of. But I think Michelle appreciated it.
Gorgeous flowers. Lots of wine. Solid DJ. And a chocolate fountain. This day was a lot of fun for everyone. Young crowd that had a good time. And grandma... who was really something.
Martin's Video was a welcome addition. We share and they don't get in my way. I probably get in their's...
