Francesca & Max's Wedding at Philadelphia Distillery

Francesca and Max’s wedding at Philadelphia Distillery was the perfect blend of modern city style and relaxed celebration. Set inside one of the most unique venues in Philadelphia, their day was filled with laughter, music, and heartfelt moments surrounded by friends and family.

Getting Ready & The First Look

Francesca wore a fitted white gown with a boned bodice, a timeless look that was both elegant and striking. Max opted for a classic suit with no tie, keeping things effortlessly cool. Their first look took place by the bar, framed by the glow of the distillery lights and the scent of fresh botanicals used in the spirits made there.

The space was beautifully decorated — floral arrangements hung from the lights over the bar, creating a romantic atmosphere that tied perfectly into the venue’s industrial charm. Francesca carried a white bouquet, simple and chic against the warm tones of the space.

Portraits in the Distillery and Streets of Philadelphia

After their first look, we explored the distillery for portraits, using the copper stills and glowing barrels as a stunning backdrop. We then stepped outside for a few classic city street shots, capturing the energy and texture of Philadelphia around them. The combination of urban architecture and soft natural light made for some of my favorite images of the day.

A Night of Live Music & Dancing

As guests filled the space, the atmosphere turned electric. A live band kept the dance floor packed all night, and Francesca and Max never stopped smiling. From their first dance to the final encore, the celebration truly reflected their fun, easygoing personalities.
