Philly in a Flash!

This past weekend I went to Philadelphia for wedding and it was so much fun! A couple Joe and I know from Columbus were getting married on Friday @ 4 so I flew up that morning and met Joe and everyone else...since they flew themselves, ha. It was such a great weekend! The wedding ceremony was at an old Catholic cathedral in downtown Philly called Old St. Joseph’s. The church was so pretty and right in the historic district of the city. A cocktail hour and reception followed the ceremony at The Downtown Club...and might I add that the food was AMAZING and NEVER ENDING. The cocktail hour had an open bar and everything under the sun in regards to food. I was so full after an hr of eating and drinking! ha. Following the cocktail hr, we were escorted into a beautiful ballroom for a delicious sit-down meal and TONS of dancing. It was a blast! After the wedding, about 15 of us went and danced the night away (until about 3 AM) at a bar/restaurant called Plough & the Stars right downtown!

Since the wedding was on friday, we had lots of time to play on Saturday. I slept until about noon (ha) and then we met up with the group and for a tour of Independence Hall which was fun. Then Joe and I walked around the city, grabbed a good lunch and then headed back to the hotel to get ready for dinner that night. The bride and groom spent all day with everyone on Saturday and came to dinner with us that night...we went to the same place where they said I love you for the first time! The food was FABULOUS. All in all it was a very fast but very fun weekend. I didnt want to leave :( The city itself is so pretty...feels exactly like NYC but much cleaner and with lots of trees. Lots’ of traveling this month
