We are quite excited to share with you all our latest set of wedding photos. Esther and Yun Seok tied the knot on perhaps the hottest day (if not, the hottest weekend) of the summer. Though the weather was a sizzling 120 degrees in the afternoon, we strategically spent much of our time indoors. Our gorgeous bride first had her hair done at Luna Salon, then continuing on to the phenomenal Hyatt at The Bellevue for the remainder of the morning.
We found a great, glass-ceiling skywalk to have their “first look” at. The midday light was diffused just enough to create a beautiful, clean and simple setting for this husband- and wife-to-be. Their hug afterwards was probably one of my top 5 favorite moments of the day.
Come time for the group photos, I (Jon) had a blast working with their respective bridal parties. Fun, goofy, energetic and patient, this particular bridal party was definitely some of the most cooperative and friendly bridal party members I’ve ever had the chance to work with. After first utilizing an empty stage in The Bellevue for the bridesmaids, we ended up navigating through narrow alleyways in Center City for additional photos.
Their ceremony and reception took place at the beautiful Korean United Church of Philadelphia (esp. check out the interior photos below). The evening was topped off with heart-felt speeches, dancing, toasts, and a ginormous assortment of catered Korean food provided by Seorabol. Did we mention that we always get to eat at weddings? Certainly, we have pretty awesome jobs with equally awesome perks 🙂 Some fun facts about this wedding: wedding flowers were all home/handmade, and the delicious desserts were crafted by a pastry chef friend of theirs.
Congratulations once again to Yun Seok & Esther, and thank you for having me at your wedding day.
