Best Of Shutterbooth Philly 2012: Gemma & Tony’s Wedding

Our “Best of Shutterbooth Philly” list continues with the breathtaking wedding of Gemma and Tony Herman on October 5th, 2012.

This gorgeous couple tied the knot in front of friends and family on the rustic grounds of Normandy Farm in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania. The Farm, which has historic significance dating back to over 300 years, is the perfect location to hold your intimate occasion. Named and designed after the beautiful territory of Normandy, France, the immaculately manicured grounds provide for an elegant affair, no matter what requests your party may have.

Gemma and Tony combined the rural countryside of the Farm with a touch of their own modern attitude. From the professional photography taken by Tyler Boye, to the old-fashioned, era-appropriate wedding invitations, it is clear that tremendous effort went in to every last detail.

There is one facet of this ceremony that must be brought to attention. Take a look at the groomsmen. Notice anything different? Anything a little out of the ordinary? Yeah, you see it now right? All of the groomsmen are rocking a pair of Converse “Chuck Taylor’s.” If you’re a man reading this, we don’t have to explain to you why this is awesome. But for all the ladies out there, who obviously have their own qualms with high heels, wearing dress shoes for multiple hours at a time is just the absolute worst. All we’re saying is, these guys better have thrown the groom one heck of a bachelor’s party.

After the couple officially tied the knot, and uttered the iconic “I do” to each other, they made their way into one of the several sophistically-fashioned, classic ballrooms for their reception. There, they danced to the beautiful melody of Regina Spektor’s “Real Love” under the tearful eyes of friends and family. And if that didn’t get the water works flowing, the magnificently edited video reel, which documented the the couple’s history together, had the room grasping for tissues.

We were absolutely honored to have been invited to this charming ceremony. We at Shutterbooth wish all the luck in the world to Gemma and Tony as they venture into their life together.
