Ritz Carlton Philadelphia Wedding|Keira and Dan

After meeting years earlier while working around the corner at KPMG, a Ritz Carlton Philadelphia Wedding made perfect sense for Keira and Dan! We spent the entire day within one mile of where it all began and also made sure to stop by their old stomping grounds for a quick photo! From their engagement session to their absolutely perfect wedding day, I can’t say enough good things about who Keira and Dan are as people and as a couple.

Here are some of my favorites from their Ritz Carlton Philadelphia wedding day!

Keira and Dan assembled a great team of vendors for their wedding day. Daneene Jensen and Associates handled hair and makeup, Keira’s dress from Kleinfeld Bridal by Michelle Roth flowers by Mums The Word and Gina Sole from In Style Planners kept everything running smooth!

So many that I often think that I haven’t been to a particular church until I get to it and then realize that I’ve been there a few times!
That won’t be the case with St. Patrick’s Church in the Rittenhouse neighborhood. I hadn’t been to this absolutely beautiful church and I won’t be forgetting it any time soon…I love it!!

Bride and Groom

Not only is St. Patrick’s a gorgeous church but it’s also one block from Rittenhouse Square! That made it an easy location decision for Keira and Dan along with stopping outside the offices of KPMG and using the interior architecture of the Ritz Carlton.
