What a wonderful day for Kirsten and Brandon! They booked me for their Glen Foerd wedding after I photographed a close friend of Kirsten’s.
This is my very first time at Glen Foerd on the Delaware and it’s safe to say I’m in love! Nestled along the banks of the Delaware River in Philadelphia, Glen Foerd provides a picturesque and enchanting setting for couples seeking to exchange their vows in an atmosphere of timeless elegance. Steeped in history and surrounded by lush gardens and grand architecture, Glen Foerd feels like an elegant castle to call your own for your wedding! Kirsten and Brandon’s timeless summer wedding here will forever be a favorite of mine.
They began getting ready in separate areas of the mansion and feeling the butterflies of seeing each other at their first look. Eveyone was in good spirits!
I looooove first looks for so many reasons. Brandon’s reaction to Kirsten could not be sweeter! His face lights up in her presence.
Their wedding party looked stunning in their black tuxes and light sage dresses. It sure was a hot wedding day, but they didn’t bat an eye and were amazing to work with! Talk about wedding party goals!
I remember vividly that the weather looked iffy for their ceremony time. Thunderstorms in the summer are pretty common, so having a back-up plan is always a good idea. Thankfully, the storm passed right by! It didn’t even touch us and they were able to have a gorgeous outdoor ceremony with the Delaware River as their backdrop.
Right before their party started, Kirsten and Brandon popped out for a few DREAMY sunset portraits! Don’t sleep on sunset at Glen Foerd, it’s literally AH-mazing. The grounds don’t have a bad spot in sight.
I’ve photographed a few couples in Kirsten and Brandon’s friend group, so I knew the party was going to be incredible as always! And it sure was, everyone was ready to GO and brought the best energy. I love this wedding day and these two. Congrats to the Abjanichs!
