Matt and I met at Perch Pub, a popular bar in Philadelphia. We became close very fast, and within a year we were engaged! Matt proposed to me the night before Easter, so we were able to tell all of our family members at once. It was very nice (and convenient!)
We chose Franklin Commons because it is so big and has so much potential. We knew we could transform it into whatever we wanted. My mom and I are creative people, and we had big plans for the space.
Franklin Commons ended up exceeding our expectations with its updated décor and the friendliness and efficiency of the entire Drexelbrook Catering & Special Event staff.
I don’t think there are many places that would allow us to string up 25 sets of string lights, install a ten foot moon photobooth, or set up all of the rest of our (sizable) decorations.
The wedding was flawless. Thank you so much for everything.
