Alyssa and David are the epitome of the perfect couple. From their romantic “meet cute” (cleverly devised by a close friend) to their engagement, to their stunning outdoor wedding at Franklin Commons, we can tell this is a love story for the ages.

Don’t take our word for it: here’s what Alyssa had to say about their story, and how their wedding day was truly the icing on the cake:

On a June night in 2015, my friend and I went out to dinner at one of our favorite local restaurants. After dinner and wine, we walked home and decided to pop into our favorite neighborhood bar for a nightcap (or two)! Unbeknownst to me, she had also invited one of her co-workers, David.

Later in the night, he offered walk me the one block home from the bar, like the gentleman he is, to which I reminded him that I am an independent woman and that the sidewalks in our West Conshohocken neighborhood were, in fact, “my sidewalks.” Nevertheless, he insisted, and dropped me off on my front porch. He texted me the next day (and for several days after that,) and we eventually set up a dinner date together at another local restaurant.

Three years later, in the very same bar where we first met, David got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. After my initial shock wore off, I quickly agreed to be his wife! I was escorted up the steps to the deck, I was totally surprised, yet again, to find all of our close family and friends there to celebrate with us! It was a wonderful night that we will never forget!

A friend of mine stumbled upon and suggested Franklin Commons as a venue to consider. After talking on the phone with event coordinator, Kim, and getting a really good “gut feeling,” we went to look at Franklin Commons later that week. We fell in love immediately! We decided to end our search and made the decision to go with the first venue that we saw! We are so glad we did!

Our wedding was everything we dreamed it would be and more. The staff was so attentive and personable, the food was delicious, and the venue was beautiful; it was truly magical. We had so many guests raving about the impeccable service, food, and atmosphere. We have been receiving all kinds of texts, calls, and chats with people who were at our wedding and even people who weren’t but saw pictures, telling us just how perfect and beautiful everything was! I still can’t even get over it! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our wedding day was the best day of our lives.
