“Sorry We’re Closed” is one of my favorite moments in my 2015 wedding season and proof that organic moments in life (and weddings) are WAY better than anything staged. JD is owner of the Manayunk novelty shop, Johnny Destructo’s Hero Complex (If you have not been, go!). He’s seen in the background of this image…
When Liz and I met for her wedding consult she began with the normal details that all brides recount. She chatted at a quick clip about the location – the Society Hill Dance Academy, the timeline and various other details.
