Names: Dana and Tracey Jones
How long have you been together as a couple before you got married?: 2 years

The Jones Family
Describe the experience of your wedding. Where did you get married? Who was there? What was the most memorable part?: It had rained all week but the Saturday of the wedding was the most beautiful day ever: not a cloud in the sky, no mud on the ground, simply gorgeous. The ceremony was held at a country club just outside of Philly. Our two children were there and very much a part of the ceremony. The most memorable moment was giving [our] children necklaces inscribed with “One Family, One Love.” It was truly a day filled with so much love and so many blessings.
Were there any local businesses that were helpful when you prepared your wedding?:
- Paravati Catering was the best: great prices and extremely accommodating.
- The Garden Path florist gave us the most gorgeous floral arrangements ever.
- Adam Gierke Photography: He is a personal friend who is a very talented photographer
