It is rumored that when King Arthur was having marital problems with Lady Genevieve, he visited Merlin in the hopes of gaining some wisdom on how to deal with his problems. He said to Merlin, “You’ve given me advice on everything in life. You’ve told me how to lead my life, my people and my country. However, never once have you given me advice about women and now more than ever, I’m completely lost.” Merlin stopped and looked at him with a quizzical expression and after a few minutes said to his King, “Just love her. Love her in good times. Love her harder in bad times. Just love her.”
This is the story that Fran’s father shared with Amanda and Fran during their wedding toasts. Just love her.
Amanda and Fran reside in Perth, Australia. And as the day went on and we learned that not everyone in Australia owns a pet kangaroo and that there really are no Outback Steakhouses at every corner, we learned of their fierce love for each other, their amazing friends and phenomenal families. Their day bustled with excitement…all the pieces that Amanda had carefully crafted were set into place and at the end of the night, it could not have been more beautiful. Fran, with his Yeti beard and single rose had won Amanda over as she called home from a telephone booth outside of her new college in Perth. Amanda, with her gorgeous smile and American ways, charmed Fran like no other. Together, there is just love.
Fran and Amanda, thank you so very much for allowing me the opportunity to get to know you, to share in your wedding day and to document your love.
Below are some of my favorites from the day…but let it be known that I had a wicked hard time selecting the bunches that are showcased in their SLIDESHOW.
Their day started at the Centre Bridge Inn in New Hope. A simply gorgeous venue overlooking the Delaware River.

From the goodies baskets for her out of town guests, to the love and details that she displayed towards her bridesmaids, Amanda had thought of everything…











Yeah, she’s that gorgeous.





Their cute little church in New Britain proved to be gorgeous, albeit challenging with its lack of a traditional center aisle…






Married!


Though I am know for my less than passionate love for frogs, I couldn’t resist…

Moustaches make it all fun…




My goal was to recreate one of my favorite images from their engagement session. Check and Mark!




Yes, those are chickens in the background. No, we couldn’t catch one.








Props to my fabulous assistant, Nicole…these three images are her view of their first dance.

I was wowed when I saw their reception room come together. All of the details were amazing…








And…we’ll end it with cake.
