Kassandra Edmonds (26 and in medical sales) and Brian Walsh (33 and in medical sales) weren't afraid to use "spring" colors at their fall wedding. "We knew we wanted a fall wedding with very light colors because we've always loved the look of bright colors against and autumn trees," Kassandra says. For their wedding at Glen Foerd on the Delaware in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, they chose a color palette of pink, taupe and lavender, which was highlighted in their attire and their bouquets. The bridesmaids dressed in long pink and taupe strapless dresses that echoed the silhouette of Kassandra's stunningly voluminous Vera Wang gown. Pastel bouquets of roses, hydrangeas, gerber daisies, viburnum and astilbes completed the bridal party look. These matched the candlelit lantern centerpieces that were wreathed with similar flowers. The romantic candlelight illuminated the tented reception along with the string lights that twinkled between the folds of its canopy and the natural light that came in through the permanent tent's windows that boasted views of the river. In addition to the decor, one of the biggest hits at the wedding was the food. "We are big foodies, so good food was a must," Kassandra says. "Jamie Hollander Catering did not disappoint." Faith West Photography was there to capture all the great details at Kassandra and Brian's wedding.

Kassandra wore a beautiful strapless Vera Wang dress with a voluminous tulle skirt. She bought her dress at a bridal show for Brides Against Breast Cancer, a nonprofit organization whose proceeds go to helping those afflicted by breast cancer. Kassandra's bridesmaids wore strapless, floor-length gowns in pink and taupe.
Kassandra and her bridesmaids carried small pastel bouquets with roses, hydrangeas, gerber daisies, viburnum, astilbes, silver brunia and hypericum.
Kassandra and Brian were married by the Delaware River in a simple ceremony. Kassandra added a touch of formality to the proceedings by wearing a pretty cathedral veil during her vows.
Brian and his groomsmen wore navy suits by Vera Wang for Men's Wearhouse. They accessorized with plaid pink and blue bow ties.
The escort card table was decorated with a wooden log engraved with the couple's names and wedding date. Placeholders were cut into the log to hold votive candles. Scattered throughout the table were green mums, lavender roses and purple stock flowers.
The reception was held under a permanent tent that featured windows allowing guests to enjoy beautiful views of the Delaware River. The tent's canopy twinkled with string lights that illuminated the farmhouse dining tables and brown chiavari chairs.
Black lanterns with candles were wreathed with hydrangeas, viburnum, gerber daisies and other flowers to create the centerpieces at the reception.
In addition to providing dinner, Jamie Hollander Catering also created an amazing white wedding cake for the reception. The raspberry and sea salt caramel cake was covered in vanilla icing and decorated with cascading roses and wildflowers.
