A Glamorous Jewish Wedding at the Downtown Club in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Abby Perschon (27 and a senior financial analyst) and Ross Levine (29 and a pediatric dentist) remixed their traditional Jewish wedding at the Downtown Club in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with tons of personal flair. Her bold dress combined with their modern ceremony traditions and glamorous centerpieces set the tone for the day. Abby's Hayley Paige gown definitely made a statement with ruffled tiers, ruching and stripes. A striped underlay peaked out from the mermaid-style skirt as she walked, giving the dress a touch of eye-catching look. Once they got to their chuppah, Abby and Ross practiced a few religious traditions with a personal twist. Instead of her physically circling him seven times, they circled each other. This demonstrated that Ross is the center of Abby’s universe and she is the center of his. Afterward, everyone went to the ballroom for a reception covered in flowers from Beautiful Blooms Events. Trumpet vases of roses and hydrangeas had matching lower arrangements and glittering tealight candles on either side. Some were even draped in crystals by planners at Kaleidoscope Weddings. Pictures by Todd caught these details, plus a live first-dance painting and energetic entrance, below. We love how Abby and Ross used a "you do you" mentality with the entire celebration.
