Helen & Larry's South Philadelphia Wedding at the Hyatt Regency

We've got a lot of catching up to do!  Helen and Larry got married during some April showers earlier this year, but they didn't let that dampen their spirits.  Helen even prepared for the weather by decorating a black umbrella with bright pink flowers!  Their ceremony was at St. Casimir's church in South Philadelphia and they rented a Philadelphia Trolley to transport the bridal party.  It was the perfect mode of transportation for such a wet day instead of cramming everyone with their umbrellas into a limo.  After the ceremony we headed to a park in South Philly for some bridal portraits, and then over to Pat's and Geno's (yes the cheesesteak joints!) for some photos with the whole bridal party. The little flower girls were starting to wane by this point, so it was the perfect time to grab a snack. You've gotta love a bride and groom who make time for some cheese fries on their wedding day!

Helen & Larry's reception was at the Penn's Landing Hyatt Regency on Columbus Blvd., which provided a great backdrop for their white, black and red wedding colors.  The bride & groom are both nurses and their caring nature was evident throughout the wedding day and all the details.  They are both very kind and warm people and we were so glad to see their happiness brighten up what would have otherwise been a gloomy day.  Their attitude was contagious and by the time everyone hit the dance floor the rain was long forgotten!
