If you’ve ever received an email from this Philadelphia wedding photographer at 3 a.m., then you know that I’m a night person. The adage by Philadelphia’s Ben Franklin “early to bed, early to rise” (or is it a proverb) never resonated with me.
So when Corey and Nimesh told me that their traditional ceremony would start at 8 a.m. morning in Glen Mills, Pennsylvania, I knew I needed a Dunkin Donuts iced coffee to wake me up. (I’m not a big hot coffee guy.)
The day dawned with blue skies and sunshine, and a long line of family members gathered outside of Corey’s home in their brightly colored gowns and gifts to offer to the bride’s family.
Suddenly, morning didn’t seem so bad after all.
After the home ceremony, Corey and Nimesh headed to Ridley Creek State Park (our second wedding at that beautiful venue this year) for a lovely outdoor ceremony. While some photographers are unsure of how to handle direct sunlight without producing odd shadows and highlights, this Philadelphia wedding photojournalist was ready to go with proper white balance and flattering angles. I love the elegance of Corey ascending the stone stairs with her flowers from AAA Sunflower Florist and the couple’s faces as they walk down the aisle at the end.
The incredible weather continued for an outdoor picnic lunch, accompanied by a tea ceremony and about a ga-zillion formal shots. It’s awesome when a bride and groom have so many great family members and friends!
And as if there hadn’t been enough celebration already, we headed to Lai Lai Garden in Blue Bell, PA for a 13-course Chinese dinner, with some Japanese and sushi, too. Yes, I said 13! Needless to say, the food was amazing.
Corey and Nimesh then set the tone for the evening with their choreographed dance to Slumdog Millionaire’s Jai Ho. They had many moves just right! This was such a fun way to get their guests excited about dancing to the sounds from Cutting Edge Entertainment, and as a result, the dance floor was filled all night long.
Corey and Nimesh, not only do you really know how to party, but you also know how to love each other. We wish you many years of happiness, including more 13-course meals and awesome dancing!
