about bride – Lindsey is from Ambler, PA and is a nurse that went to Villanova University.
about groom – Joe is from Ambler, PA and works for his family business Wissahickon Valley Sweep.
how did you met – We met in elementary school and were friends going up until 2008 when we started dating.
who proposed and how – Joe proposed on our yearly family vacation to the Outer Banks, NC. He proposed on the beach at sunrise.
wedding theme/inspiration – The inspiration for our wedding was the ocean. We’ve always loved going on vacation, especially to Key West, and we thought there would be no better place for us to get married then in Key West on the beach.
why Key West – We first came to Key West 5 years ago for vacation and we fell in love with it. We have been back every year, sometimes twice a year, since. When we starting planning our wedding we tried to keep it local to make it easier on our friends and family but our hearts were always in Key West. We finally decided to just go for it and plan our dream Key West wedding and it ended up being exactly what we wanted! Our friends and family that came down to celebrate with us now know why Key West has a special place in our hearts.
why Filda Konec Photography – We chose Filda Konec Photography because we liked their photographer style and how natural and beautiful their pictures were. They do a great job at capturing a special moment and turing it into a lasting memory. Every album we looked at of theirs were all amazing from start to finish so it was an easy decision for us. Choosing a photographer was a very important part of our wedding planning and I think we nailed it by going with Filda Konec Photography, we couldn’t be happier with how our pictures turned out.
what’s planned for the future – Our future plans include fixing up our new house in Ambler, PA and enjoying married life.
best moment of your wedding day – The best moment of our wedding day was seeing each other for the first time. We had spent the night away from each other before the wedding so having that excitement and anticipation build up to the first moment when we saw each other was so special.
