Anna and Julius were married at Saint Peter the Apostle, a gothic church in Philadelphia with frescoes and stained glass old enough to make anyone stop looking at their phone. Then they celebrated at Glen Foerd, a mansion on the Delaware River.
They’d rented an Airbnb within walking distance of the church, so the morning began with Anna walking to her own wedding, dress and all, while her bridesmaids managed the train and cleared the sidewalk ahead of her.
A Glen Foerd, Philadelphia wedding: a vintage garden party
Anna designed the graphics that ran through the decor herself. Her taste is colorful and eccentric; Julius’s burgundy suit was a perfect match. Together they built a vintage garden party: guests in summery clothes, cocktail hour wandering up the floral carpeted steps in the main hall of the Glen Foerd mansion and the paths along the river. Then, dinner and dancing in a tent strung with lights as the sky went dark.
