Wedding Celebration Aboard the Historic Moshulu
It was a beautiful day in Philadelphia as Stefanie and Patrick celebrated their love story with a memorable wedding aboard the iconic Moshulu. I had the honor of capturing every special moment of their day. This included the anticipation of getting ready and the joyful reception on this historic ship.
Getting Ready in Style at the Hilton
The day began with Stefanie and her bridal party preparing for the big moment at the Hilton located at 201 S Christopher Columbus Blvd, Philadelphia, PA 19106. The atmosphere was filled with excitement and laughter as hair and makeup artists worked their magic. These pre-ceremony moments are always so precious. They are filled with anticipation and the special bond between loved ones.
An Intimate First Look and Ceremony in an 18th-Century Garden
Following the getting-ready session, Stefanie and Patrick shared a touching first look in a charming 18th-century garden located at 339 Walnut St, Philadelphia, PA 19106. The intimacy of this moment, witnessed by only their parents, created a truly heartfelt and personal ceremony. The historic garden provided a beautiful and serene backdrop for their vows. It emphasized the love and commitment they share. This private ceremony was a beautiful start to their wedding day, a quiet moment before the lively celebrations to come.
Aboard the Moshulu: A Unique Philadelphia Wedding Reception
The wedding celebration continued with the reception held on the legendary Moshulu, docked at 401 S Christopher Columbus Blvd, Philadelphia, PA 19106. This historic four-masted barque, now a renowned restaurant, offers a truly unique wedding venue. It provides stunning waterfront views of the Philadelphia skyline.
The Moshulu provided an exceptional setting for Stefanie and Patrick’s reception. Guests enjoyed delicious food, heartfelt toasts, and danced the night away under the stars. All of this occurred while surrounded by the nautical charm and history of this magnificent ship. The energy throughout the evening was infectious. It was a true reflection of Stefanie and Patrick’s happiness and the joy of their family and friends. It was an unforgettable experience for everyone involved. A celebration as unique as the couple themselves.
