Professional Shots: The Details
Our reception area was held in the rotunda above the ceremony site.
The wedding party’s song was Paul Oakenfold’s “Starry Eyed Surprise”.
Our entrance song was “Tonight Tonight” from the Smashing Pumpkins.
Our first dance together. We danced to David Gray’s “This Year’s Love.”

Another kiss after the toasts! I love the expression of our friends in the background. 
Cutting our cake! Most of our guests missed out on this moment because they were so busy with our candy buffet.
Our guests loved songs by Daft Punk, especially “Around the World”.
My father-in-law really loves to dance.
Non-stop dancing machine.
He pretty much danced the whole night away…
The fire alarm went off towards the end of the night. It was a nice break from all the dancing and music.
Everyone returning inside; the remains of our candy buffet.

A great shot of my french bustle.
Overall, the night was phenomenal, and we were so happy to see all of our guests in Philadelphia. I gotta admit there were some unexpected surprises that happened throughout the day, but nothing really got in the way of making our day very special.
I’m glad that all the wedding planning is *finally* over, and I have to thank all of the readers for supporting me throughout the process. Before planning for the wedding, I had no clue what was really involved in a wedding! Your opinions were extremely valuable and I thank everyone for helping me plan for our special day.

LOVE the pictures! You venue was beautiful. We are also dancing to “This Year’s Love” for our first dance. Congratulations!
“Around the World” by Daft Punk is definitely on our must-play list. Congrats on a beautiful wedding!
Mrs. Bell Pepper you had such a beautiful wedding- I absolutely love looking at all your pictures.
Quick question– did you wear a bra with your dress? My dress has a similar low back cut and it is low on the sides (sharp cut down from the side boob ) and I can’t find one that doesn’t show. Any great suggestions?
Your wedding looked like it was so much fun. You two look so relaxed and happy and your guests look like they had a blast. Congratulations
we had a dance line form at the wedding i just went to too. what a blast. these are great pictures!
Haha your FIL is way cute.
Amy,
I actually didn’t wear a bra, I had cups sewn into the dress. I didn’t want to worry about anything underneath getting the way between me and my dress!
wow! your pictures look fantastic and you look gorgeous in your dress!
What a great entrance song, the Smashing Pumpkins are my favorite!
Thanks for an idea on how to incorporate them into the evening!
Thanks for the tip Mrs. Bell Pepper. I’ve been debating on which to do.
