Downtown Club Philly Wedding|Shana & Kyle

Who would have thought that on the very day when you realize you are being used, you meet someone you deserve? 

After getting disappointed when Kyle found out that the girl he was seeing was only using him for drinks, he noticed another girl with such beautiful eyes. From that moment, he knew he wouldn’t let the opportunity pass to introduce himself, and that is how he met Shana. They both hit it off and went on their first date with each other. Kyle couldn’t think of anything other than her and had never felt anything like this before.

Meanwhile, Shana realized that he must be the one when the first song that was played on his car was an Avicii song. This was a sign to her. Shana describes Kyle as someone who cares deeply about others, while Kyle claims that Shana is someone with a beautiful soul. The couple loves the way they are both competitive, making their relationship fun. Kyle is an avid Chiefs fan, and Shana is a Patriots fan and both of them appreciated each other!

The Proposal

They both went on a dinner date on their third anniversary. Kyle gave her a gift of photos full of memorable moments during their relationship. He said there was a photo missing and that’s when he got down on his knee and asked Shana to marry him. Shana was surprised and, of course, said yes! He took a photo of the two of them with a polaroid camera and placed it in the album.

Here are some favorites from their Downtown Club Philly wedding day beautifully captured by Ralph Deal Photography.

"I could go on all day long about how amazing our experience with Ralph and his team was, from our engagement photos to our wedding day we felt like he was part of the family. Booking Ralph Deal photography was one of the easiest and best decisions we made. People don’t realize how important a good and experienced photographer is! I recommend Ralph over and over and over again, but don’t wait to book because the good ones book up fast! All my friends who wanted to use him waited too long and Ralph was already booked 🙂 we locked him in 18 months in advanced!
