Philander Chase Knox Estate Wedding | Meghan & Luis

bride and groom night photo at philander chase knox estateAlthough we are quite familiar with Valley Forge National Historical Park, this was our first time getting a glimpse inside the stunning Philander Chase Knox estate, just on the edge of the park’s property. We couldn’t have dreamed of a better couple to photograph there. For starters, Meghan’s dress was a unique blend of modern with nods to romantic vintage details. In all my years photographing, I’ve never quite seen any dress like it. The back lacing was incredible, and the tulle in the skirt was a pale and luminescent faintest blue. It fit Meghan like a glove, and accentuated her classic beauty.

Much like the dress, Meghan and Luis just fit perfectly together, as if they’d always belonged that way. Any time they were together they just seemed so content! They were also blissfully open to our ideas, and let us explore the old greenhouse which we were enamored with, not only during their first look, but again at dusk. M & L even arranged for Meghan’s dad to bring his racing Porsche to the venue for a few golden hour photos, and as if all of the above wasn’t enough to excite our lenses, had one of the best choreographed first dances we’ve seen.

The day flew by far too fast, but thankfully we get to be in the business of preserving memories, so we’re able to share some of our favorite moments in images for a long time to come! bridesmaids looking into mirrorbridesmaids playing with balloon having funbride and sister embraceflower girl getting readybride hanging her wedding dressbridesmaids doing makeup for flower girl flower girl getting ready for weddingbride and bridesmaids getting readybride spraying perfumebridal portraitsbridesmaids having a drinkgroom getting readygroom looking into mirror getting readygroom before the first lookfirst look between bride and groom at philander chase knox estatefirst look at philander chase knox estate weddingfirst look at philander chase knox estatereading to each other at philander chase knox estatebride and groom at philander chase knox estatebride and groom candid moment at philander chase knox estate wedding groom and brother embracingbride with bridesmaids inside philander chase knox estategroomsmen at philander chase knox estateflowergirl descending staircase at philander chase knox estate flower girl at philander chase knox estatebride before her wedding at philander chase knox estatebridesmaids at philander chase knox estate weddingbride near mirrorlittle girl looking at photographer at philander chase knox estate weddingwedding at philander chase knox estatelittle girl throws flowers at wedding photographerbridesmaids laughing philander chase knox estate wedding venuebridesmaids crying when they see the bridebride and her dad walking to the wedding ceremomnyphilander chase knox estate wedding outdoors in the summer timebride smilingbride smiling at groom during ceremonybridesmaid watching weddingoutdoor wedding at philander chase knox estategroom smiling at bride during ceremonywedding ceremony at philander chase knox estatebride laughingwedding ceremony candid momentbride laughing during speech kissing at the end of ceremonyend of ceremony at philander chase knox estate weddingbride and groom with Porsche race carbride and groom kissing in Porsch race carbride and groom pose in front of philander chase knox estate bride looking beautifulartist painting a custom piece of art at philander chase knox estatewedding details at philander chase knox estatebride and groom's first dancefirst dance at philander chase knox estatedancing bride and groomwedding guests dancingdancing guests at receptionbridesmaids dancing at philander chase knox estatebride and groom in the back of philander chase knox estatephilander chase knox estate greenhouse photos of bride and groomphilander chase knox estate greenhouse photos of bride and groombride and groom cutting the wedding cakebride dancing with her fatherfather and daughter dance at philander chase knox estate greenhouse photos of bride and groomgroom dancing with his momgroom hugging his mombride dancing and having funguests dancing at weddingguests having fun at philander chase knoxwedding rings photonight photos at philander chase knox estatewatching the painter make art
