Dara & Mark at Valley Forge Casino Resort

Dara & Mark’s wedding was hands-down, without a doubt, the most colorful and festive wedding we’ve ever photographed. From the pink bedroom to the green and red reception, it was a color explosion (more on that in a second). Then, just when we thought it couldn’t get more festive it started snowing… INSIDE! Oh and then Santa Claus dropped by to give out candy canes. Oh and there was a fireplace… and stockings… and a nutcracker…

Ok, so now let’s talk about the ceremony. We walked into the Saint Philip Neri Church and we saw a rainbow. Like a ‘nothing we’ve ever seen before’ situation. The sun aligned perfectly through the stained glass, and the alter was blasted with every color imaginable. Was it intimidating to shoot? Absolutely. But it also resulted in some of our favorite ceremony photos that we’ve ever taken… including one of Dara walking down the aisle that was a perfect combination of planning and luck. Check them out!

Notes: This wedding was photographed by Amy & Tony Hoffer at the Valley for Casino Resort in King of Prussia, PA. The ceremony took place at the Saint Philip Neri Church in Lafayette Hill, PA. The bridal party photos were take at Chestnut Hill College. This Christmas-themed wedding included a choreographed first dance with a snow machine and an appearance by Santa Claus. Other vendors included the Marquee band.
