Crystal Tea Room Wedding|Gabrielle & Dominick

Gabrielle and Dominic  had mutual friends and went to the same high school. They were connected in 2015 when they were both working in Philadelphia. He was in law school, and Gabrielle was finishing her degree in college.

Dominic falls in love with Gabrielle because of her infectious, palpable and positive energy. He feels like it radiates out of her, brightening the world for everyone lucky enough to be near which makes her easy to love. 

Gabrielle thinks that Dominic is the kindest, sweetest, all-around most wonderful person, with the most genuine and caring heart. He's protective and generous with the people he loves most, and has the strongest moral compass of anyone she has ever met. She just loves him for everything that he is. They both knew very early on their relationship  that they wanted to spend the rest of their lives together.

The Proposal

Dominic surprised Gabrielle by proposing at their housewarming party, in front of some of their closest family and friends!!

Here are some favorites from their Crystal Tea Room wedding day beautifully captured by Ralph Deal Photography.

Let's Talk About Your Wedding!

"Where do I even start...everything was amazing with Ralph! We have such beautiful images from our special day because of Ralph! He took the time to get to know us and know what we wanted from our photos. We didn't have a videographer so it was important to us to have the day captured with photos and that is exactly what we got with Ralph. The images were amazing and working with Ralph and his team was amazing. Highly recommend him for all of your photo needs and hopefully one day soon he can capture our family photos!"
