Gabbrielle & Connor | Villanova Wedding

An Elegant Navy & Fuschia St. Thomas Villanova Wedding

Gabby & Connor had the most beautiful wedding day!  I arrived at the Montrose Mansion at the Villanova Conference center and was instantly taken aback by it’s beauty.  I am a happy photographer when my brides pick a breathtaking getting ready location.  Their St. Thomas Villanova wedding was just perfect and full of gorgeous details among a Navy and Fuschia & Gold color scheme. They were married on a July summer day and even though they had some rain during the portraits, they held each other close and embraced it.  I just love the way Connor looked at his gorgeous bride all day long.

These two were surrounded by such loving friends and family and so many Villanova alums.  Gabby and Connor met at Villanova, so it was only fitting to hold their wedding there.  To make things even more exciting, Villanova won the NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship this year!  The most crazy thing is that Connor’s parents were married in 1985, the year of the first Villanova national championship!  It was meant to be!  As the band played the Villanova fight song, I could help but sing along… V for Villanova!

Gabby & Connor, it was so great getting to know you both.  Thank you for trusting in me to document your day!  I wish you guys all the best!
