How They Met

“Stan and I met in August of 2015 after ‘swiping right’ on a dating app. We chatted for a while and then met at Sassafras Bar in Old City. What started out as just-drinks quickly turned in to dinner and a 4-hour date.”

The Proposal

“We went on a trip to St. Thomas, USVI. I was convinced that Stan would not propose on the trip because he wouldn’t want to travel with the ring. On our first night there, we got ready for dinner and were a little early for our reservation, so Stan asked if I wanted to go on a walk to explore the resort. We ended up down on a quiet patio near the water with no one around. Stan started talking about how much he loved me and how happy he was to be there with me and the whole time it wasn’t clicking for me what he was doing. I was sure he was going to pretend to tie his shoe and then say ‘let’s go to dinner’ just to mess with me a little. When he got down on one knee I froze and didn’t say anything for a few very long seconds and then realized I hadn’t answered him!

Our favorite wedding moment is hard to choose because we loved the whole experience. I was really nervous before our ceremony, but once the doors opened and I saw all of the people I loved leading up to the man I loved, I felt calm and really happy. We just enjoyed celebrating our commitment with all of the people who have loved and supported us our whole lives. It’s an amazing thing to look around and see 150 people all there because they love and support you.”

Knowlton Mansion

I was looking for something that was a little different than a traditional Center City ballroom. I wanted a more rustic and romantic feel with some beautiful outdoor space for people to enjoy. We looked at 6 or 7 venues and nothing really felt like what I had envisioned. When we got to Knowlton Mansion, it had everything I was looking for and it was still close to the city, so our guests wouldn’t need to travel too far.

Wedding Inspiration

I was always inspired to have a wedding that was very classic and would never go out of style. I am not into fads or the newest fashion trend, so I wanted a more traditional feel. My parents were married in the 70’s and it is very obvious looking back at their photos what decade it was. I wanted our wedding to feel like it could be in any decade, but still be modern. I frequently told vendors that I wanted everything to be soft, pretty and romantic and they all helped to make that possible!”

Wedding Planning Advice

My best wedding planning advice is to use a wedding planner! It was so helpful to not have to stress about all of the details that go into a wedding, some you never even think of! I was very calm and easy going throughout the entire planning process. Any small issue that came up, I had someone there to help fix it. It was well worth it!
