This post is looooooong overdue, but I still wanted to share some pictures of the wonderful wedding we attended in Philadelphia at the beginning of the summer.
It was a whirlwind trip, driving the 7 hours to Andrew’s mom’s house in Ohio to drop Milo and Oliver off, then another 2 hours to the airport, where we hopped on a plane for Philly, our old stomping grounds. I think the last time I was there, I was pregnant with Milo! Unfortunately, we did not get a chance to see alllll the people we would have loved to see, but we were lucky to catch dinner with some good friends and Andrew surprised me with a really nice hotel room near Rittenhouse Square for our two-night stay. And though the weather was unseasonably cool and a bit rainy, we had a fantastic time walking around in the city, taking our time and eating in cozy restaurants, watching cable TV and attempting to sleep in a bit (like, until 7am)!
The actual wedding was held in a community garden in the middle of the city- the perfect place for our friends Ryan and Imani, who are the most generous, community-minded people we know. The ceremony was heartfelt, the reception creative, the love palpable.
Ah, love.
Sideways man.
The happy couple
Another happy couple.
(Please excuse my rain-bangs. They did not recover from the ceremonial drizzle!)
Baby bump and handsome hubby.
I have to say, this little trip was just what we needed. We even ended up leaving the wedding a bit early to go back to the hotel room and watch The Food Network while eating chocolate cake in bed. A perfect end to a perfect trip! Congratulations again to Ryan and Imani, who are now somewhere in Russia! We will miss you!
I’m assuming Andrew forgot to also bring his clown shoes and red clown nose?
He looks like a damn clown or somethin’
My clown college degree came from a little place called Dayton, OH. It’s the best clown-u-cation in the world. I just wish I was valedictorian of my clown class. Unfortunately, I couldn’t muster up the strength to be victorious in the Meathead Games. My roommate won, though.
What a cute couple! well like you said – 2 cute couples 🙂 Sounds like a perfect weekend! You look so pretty!
That’s a fine lookin’ clown if you ask me…very dapper. With a gorgeous lady at his side!
