Tara + Sam, Ballroom at the Ben, Philadelphia Classic Jewish Wedding- Angela MALICKI events, Philadelphia Wedding Planner

Tara and Sam’s Philadelphia Classic Jewish Wedding, hosted at iconic Ballroom in  the Ben Franklin Hotel, wedding coordinated by Angela MALICKI Events, Philadelphia based Wedding Planner.

Our couple hosted their wedding at Ballroom at the Ben, located in the heart of Philadelphia at the Ben Franklin Hotel. This ballroom was notably featured in the Academy Award-nominated Silver Linings Playbook. We coordinated a wedding here several years ago and it was nice coming back.

Tara’s bouquet designed by Vito Russo of Carl Alan Designs, incorporated a variety of peonies and roses that complimented the look, the bouquet was completed with pearl covered pins and satin ribbon.

 

Eric and Terra accompanied Tara and the bridesmaids to meet Sam at the 8th Century Garden for their first look. As Sam turned to see Tara the garden filled with love and happiness that carried on into the night. Photographer, Faith West was able to capture all of the magic of the day.

When we arrived back at The Ben, florist, Carl Alan Floral Design had already begun filling the ballroom with elegant flower arrangements. The chuppah, a traditional canopy the couple stands under in Jewish weddings was draped decadently in flowers completed with a crystal chandelier. It was a dream standing under!

Rabbi Howard Cove held the signing of the Ketubah, a binding contract signed by the closest friends and family members of the bride and groom. Their ketubah was very creative and colorful, later it was displayed at the reception.

The ceremony began shortly after the Ketubah was signed. Tara walked down the aisle with her mother June on one arm and father Mark in the other. After a kiss, the couple was introduced as the new Mr. and Mrs. Rawes.

Mr. and Mrs. Rawes entered the ballroom to “500 Miles” by Sleeping at Last. After, guests began to gather in a circle and the extraordinarily talented LA Starz started turning up the music to indicate it was time for the Hora. Guests were smiling and the bride and groom were filled with joy as their friends and family hoisted them into the air.
