Lavish Luxury Outdoor Wedding at the Merion Tribute House, Philadelphia, PA | Jennifer & Mark | July 3, 2016

Lavish Luxury Outdoor Wedding at the Merion Tribute House, Philadelphia, PA

There are certain milestones in your life that stand out above others. Getting married is certainly one of the few that make that list. Most people have their high school classmates, or the college besties in their wedding party, but this wedding was different. The Best man was the groom’s son and the Maid of Honor was the daughter of the Bride. The sentiments expressed by the children were some of the most touching toasts we’ve heard to date. To round out the emotional heartfelt moments was comedian JVonne Pearson who left everyone in tears from being emotional to laughing their socks off.

Jennifer and Mark had their wedding at the Merion Tribute House. This Philadelphia wedding venue is one of the premier venues in that area with breathtaking views from the moment you pull onto the property. Jennifer and Mark took full advantage of the venue with a beautiful outdoor ceremony and saying their vows with the beautiful greengage and arrangements by Lily V as the magnificent backdrop.
