The Crystal Tea Room
The Crystal Tea Room
Venue Information
One of the great ballrooms in the city of Philadelphia and the home of Miguel, maitre d’ extraordinaire. There’s plenty of room for your guests and also several places to make beautiful images without having to leave the venue if you don’t want to. It’s always a pleasure to work at the Crystal Tea Room!
Tip: If you want the classic Broad Street shot with City Hall in the background, consider waiting until night time to take that image. It’s a short walk out to the location and a nice break for my couples to have a few quiet minutes away from the chaos of the day and reconnect for a beautiful image! The resulting long exposure image creates a visually stunning image that you just can’t get during the day.

Union Trust Philadelphia Wedding
When you have a Union Trust Philadelphia Wedding you’re probably not going to be terrible interested in stopping by Milkboy on Chestnut Street for a photo op on your wedding day.

Summer Union Trust Wedding|Jenna and Eric
Jenna and Eric are crazy about each other!
