The Curtis Atrium Wedding | Alicia + Aaron

Ron Soliman — Sat, 13 Jun 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Happy Anniversary to Alicia and Aaron!

The Curtis Atrium Wedding – It was such a joy and honor to document Alicia and Aaron’s wedding day. They are genuinely two of the kindest, warmest people you could ever meet. One of the things that makes their story even more unique is their shared connection to Philadelphia sports. Alicia is a former Philadelphia Eagles cheerleader, while Aaron is one of the biggest Eagles fans you will ever meet. Their love for the city, the team, and each other was evident throughout the entire celebration and added a personal touch to an already unforgettable wedding day.

The day began at The Logan Philadelphia Hotel, formerly the iconic Four Seasons Hotel, where both Alicia and Aaron prepared for the celebration ahead. One of the unique aspects of their wedding day was the convenience of having the stunning Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul directly across the street from the hotel. Surrounded by their closest family and friends, the couple exchanged vows during a beautiful and heartfelt ceremony that was both intimate and deeply meaningful.

Following the ceremony, we took advantage of Philadelphia’s timeless architecture and gorgeous weather. We began with portraits at the Logan Fountain before heading to the historic Second Bank of the United States, located just steps from their reception venue, the elegant Curtis Atrium. The soft light, perfect temperatures, and stunning city backdrop created ideal conditions for unforgettable photographs.

Every detail of the day reflected Alicia and Aaron’s style and vision. What makes their wedding even more impressive is that Alicia planned the entire celebration herself. From start to finish, she did an incredible job creating a wedding that was both elegant and timeless. Kudos to Alicia for bringing together such a beautiful day for everyone to enjoy.

Please enjoy some of our favorite images from Alicia and Aaron’s unforgettable Philadelphia wedding.

Vie by Cescaphe Wedding – I am so excited to blog about Rebecca and Adriano’s BIG Italian wedding at Vie. They did such an amazing job putting this wedding together from the flowers, to her wedding gown, to the decors at the wedding reception, everything was so gorgeous.

Cescaphe Ballroom Wedding | Suzann + Bill

Cescaphe Ballroom Wedding – Happy Anniversary! I thank Suzann and Bill for making me part of their memorable and special day. They are such a nice and sweet couple, and knowing them is such a blessing. The love that this couple have for each other has been such an inspiration for younger couples out there. Their romance began back when they were teenagers, but when life circumstances changed they moved on with their own lives. After a few years, their path crossed again and a new love story has begun. I am very lucky to document the pinacle of this love story during the celebrations of this couple’s union last week at the Cathedral Basilica of Sts. Peter and Paul and at Cescaphe Ballroom in Philadelphia. Check out the following images from their beautiful wedding…

Congrats to Rachel and Eugene!

It’s going to be another gorgeous day for a Jewish wedding for Rachel and Eugene at the Vie in Philadelphia. Can’t wait to be part of the special day of this wonderful couple. I met Rachel and Eugene through the circle of friends of one of our brides from last year. It’s funny how our first meeting after they booked me over the phone was at their friend’s wedding.

Check out these images from their engagement session we did all around Philadelphia, including some cool pictures on Ben Franklin Bridge….

Thanks for stopping by to see their engagement photos. Please make sure to come back in a week to check out some Sneak Peeks from their wedding.

Congrats to Jeri Lynn and Joe!

We are back from our California shoot and we begin the second part of the wedding season with Jeri Lynn and Joe’s wedding at the Crystal Tea Room in Philadelphia. We are so excited to see lots of familiar faces. I photographed Joe’s sister Shannon’s and his cousin Kristin’s weddings a few years ago and I won’t forget how fun this family was! I am so fired up now especially after taking a few weeks break from shooting wedding.

Check out these engagement images we shot near their family’s beach home in Brigantine Beach, New Jersey. I had a blast shooting this beautiful couple and their adorable son Dylan. Enjoy!
