Katie and Sean - A Wedding for Alex

Last month I posted about our involvement in "A Wedding for Alex," (for that post, go here).

Katie and Sean were married on July 18 and had a beautiful reception at the Omni Hotel at Independence Park. Kyle, their DJ for the night, received a very nice thank you note from them and we are so glad their wedding was everything they hoped it would be.

Here is the note he received:
Dear Kyle,
You did an outstanding job at our wedding. You are an amazing DJ and made the night perfect! I couldn't have asked for a more wonderful DJ. Your song selections really kept the wedding flowing and helped ensure that everyone was having a great time. We were truly impressed and have received several compliments about you. You will be highly recommended to our friends and family. Thanks again, Katie and Sean

Katie and Sean's wedding was featured in today's Philadelphia Inquirer and is also on their website, check it out here. It's a very nice article about Katie and Sean's story and all of the people who came together to give them the wedding of their dreams.

Here are a few images from their special day, thanks to Eli Allen from Majestic Images.

A Wedding for Alex


I'm sure most of you have heard of Alex's Lemonade Stand - a national foundation that evolved from Alexandra "Alex" Scott's (1996-2004) lemonade stand to a nationwide fundraising movement. Since 2000, Alex's Lemonade Stand has raised over $25 million towards finding a cure for childhood cancer.

Last year, "A Wedding for Alex" was put together - The Omni Hotel at Independence Park came together with a number of other Philadelphia area vendors to auction off a $50,000 dream wedding package on eBay. The package includes a rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception, rings, a custom wedding dress, hair and make up services, photography and videography, a DJ, flowers, invitations, bridesmaid dresses and tuxedos, and a luxurious, all-inclusive honeymoon in Mexico.

Katie McIntyre and Sean Mooney bid $34,100 on this dream wedding and won it. Every penny of that $34,100 will go to Alex's Lemonade Stand and the fight against pediatric cancer.

Katie and Sean's big day is this coming Saturday and we are so thrilled to be a part of it!
