Amy and Nick’s romantic and elevated Philadelphia engagement session was set at the picture-perfect Ritz-Carlton Philadelphia hotel on South Broad Street. During our session, we explored every inch of the Ritz. From their stunning views, Broad Street, to enjoying a few sips of champagne at the lobby bar. It doesn’t get any better!
Ritz-Carlton Philadelphia and Broad Street Engagement Photos
In the heart of the city, the Ritz-Carlton is the absolute picture-perfect location for the classic and elevated Philadelphia engagement session. This location has an abundance of picturesque backgrounds all within a short walking distance. With the College of Physicians, PAFA, South Broad Street, and Philadelphia City Hall, you have an abundance of perfect backdrops for your picture-perfect Philadelphia engagement session. Even better, the couple is celebrating their very special wedding day in this very city. So celebrating their engagement session here at the Ritz-Carlton was absolutely perfect! What an epic way to kick-off the wedding festivities! So perfect!
During this very special session Amy and Nick gave me their very own personal tour of The Ritz-Carlton Philadelphia. We explored the halls overlooking the grand lobby, and of course hopped outside to take a peak at Broad Street during the hustle-bustle of the morning commute.
It started pouring a bit during our walk in front of the Union League Philadelphia so we made our way indoors to enjoy a glass of Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin champagne at the lobby bar before our outfit change. Headed up to the suite, we made a few pit-stops for a few kisses at the elevator. Styled beautifully, this couple embodies all things chic fashion. The bride-to-be in Jimmy Choos, isn’t she glowing! I cannot wait for their Water Works by Cescaphe Philadelphia wedding this upcoming September wedding season!
