St. Monica Roman Catholic Church Ceremony

“We each have family roots in Philadelphia that can be traced back several generations. Although they never met, our grandmothers grew up in the same parish in South Philly,” Rachel says. “It seemed fitting that the wedding ceremony should be held in that very parish, St. Monica Church.” They left the church exactly as it was for the service, so these massive murals along the altar were their only decor.
