Our Wedding

Our Story

Our Story in Photos

Tech bro with a bouldering habit, first love of his life will always be Maine. Keep the Luft away from him.

Aaron Anderson

Usually snacking, reading or snuggling cats. Loves Philly, nature walks, elaborate skin care routines and cooking. Received a pin last year from Google Maps for being a "super user."

Bridget Reed Morawski

The truest Gamesman. Can usually be found in the woods with a deck of cards or slinging insurance quotes down in Portland.

Lucas Anderson

Spent months putting up with the bride as a classmate, roommate and fellow intern throughout college, then generously moved to DC to keep feeding Bridget.

Casey Campbell-Roth

Girl dad, mountain man, probably could've built this website way faster than Bridget.

Cory Tanner

Under the sea Savant, always has a 12-pack of Allagash White on hand. Still knows how to use a sawzall from when he met Aaron at S.W. Collins Co.

JoJo Holmes

Ask me about my job as a dancer at Sesame Place. Also, I'm sister of the bride.

Samantha Sienkiewicz

Managed to survive 18 years with Aaron. Most likely to be found at a Rotary auction supporting a free ski night for small dogs.

Madelene Anderson

Shares a coffee and cigar fascination with the groom, Still hotly debated if this is the matchmaker of the couple (?) who is to know?

Anthony Monzon

Pottery pro who can talk shit about you in more languages than you have fingers on one hand. Bridget's repeat roomie at Emerson College. 

Hae Ji Cho

Always somewhere fun and far away, always close in spirit, Geoff and Aaron share a love of travel. A fellow keyboard wizard, always down for schlager music and a Mast.

Geoff Khorn

Heart of gold, belly full of pasta. Met Bridget when they were both working in childcare ... now they live with men. Coincidence?

Silvia Bianchin

When he's not in Philly, he's sharpening his skill as an amateur concierge for the techy, or designing international getaways. Worldly and experienced in the art of the memorable Friday night.

Brian Dinh

A garden girlie who went to Emerson's journalism program with Bridget. Always scheming for a camping trip.

Elizabeth Gillis

Spent at least a fifth of his life at 31,000 feet. Don't give this guy a camera, you might find yourself in a short film (or maybe do?). Fairly certain he's on a waitlist for a Boston Dynamics Spot.

John Clifton

Most likely to bring a backpack of Fireball to the sidelines of a marathon. Former coworker of Bridget turned weekend getaway and drinking buddy.

Ellie Potter

Meet the Wedding Party

Q + A

Walk straight down to the ceremony and reception from your hotel room —&nbsp;no need to hunt down a shuttle and be ready super early! Dine at the great rooftop bar-restaurant and lively ground-level courtyard; take a dip in the lovely glass-walled pool along the river; or take a short walk along the river to the popular Manayunk neighborhood for bars, restaurants, shops, art galleries and nightlife. It’s a 5-minute walk to <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/dir/40.0166268,-75.2138071/Wissahickon/@40.0164886,-75.2131089,17.78z/data=!4m9!4m8!1m0!1m5!1m1!1s0x89c6b88f9f23ff1b:0x35c231945c790b63!2m2!1d-75.2102259!2d40.0166401!3e2?hl=en&amp;entry=ttu" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">the nearest SEPTA station</a> (Wissahickon stop).

Staying at the suggested hotel block means you won't need to worry about getting to the ceremony! Nonetheless, there are several SEPTA bus and subway lines that service the hotel where our reception hall is located. Taxis are abundant, but be aware that rush hour in Philadelphia is a notable problem on a Friday around 5pm. If you don't plan to stay at the hotel block, we advise heading over early and enjoying the hotel's public amenities until the ceremony.
