Talk about a complete vibe. These two knew what they wanted and went for it. Their venue was a small restaurant called Osteria in Philly. It was decorated with beautiful lush greenery and they served top of the line meals. Victoria and Ryan fully indulged on the day of their micro-wedding and treated their guests like royalty. In total, there was no more than 50 people there. The ceremony was short and sweet, and the guests sat in the same seats where they would eat their dinner. It challenged us to get creative and to find the best angles while working within a small space.

A micro-wedding has the unique ability to make everyone feel like family, even if you’re not. We certainly felt like we were a part of the clan after spending just a few hours together with everyone. It’s such an intimate and emotional experience that you naturally create connections with all of the guests there. The hustle and bustle from being in close proximity to everyone was electrifying.

We were blessed to get to know Victoria and Ryan and some of their closest family and friends. During couples photos they escaped to the bar and had a sweet moment just for the two of them. They took a few minutes to sip on their favorite drinks and soak in the reality of becoming a married couple. Such a perfect way to end a perfect day.

If a big wedding isn’t what you imagine, something small can be just as beautiful. Celebrate your day exactly how you imagine. That can be a micro-wedding with the magic of just your inner circle, or a huge party with everyone that you know. Make your special day look and fell like you.
