This past Saturday I was asked by my good friend and fellow Philadelphia wedding photographer, Jenn Childress to photograph her grandfather’s surprise 70th birthday party at Maggiano’s in King of Prussia. A few of our favorite wedding pro’s also provided some of their services for Bob’s party. Leslie at Whimsical Welcomes provided the beautiful center pieces for all of the tables. Erin Proud of Proud to Plan created the table numbers, place cards and seating chart while Synergetic Sounds not only provided the soundtrack for the day but they also hooked the party up with an LCD for Jenn to display a sideshow during the party. Finishing off the wedding professionals who helped out with the party, was Cakes by Suzy who created an INCREDIBLE telescope birthday cake! The party was a huge success, Bob was surprised and overwhelmed by the outpouring of love from family and friends. Everyone involved with this celebration put together a really special and wonderful event. It was a pleasure for me to be a part of it and to see such love shared between everyone all afternoon. Happy Birthday Bob!

Is it a telescope or is it a cake? Well for a telescope it sure was a delicious cake. Cakes by Suzy knocked it WAAAY outta the park on this one!.

Bob realizing that his best friend John had flown in from LA just for this party!

Whitney and Mya (Bob’s great great-granddaughters) gave very heartfelt toasts.

This may be my favorite photo of the day. 6 year old Mya wrote and gave her very own own speech! “I love you so much that I feel like I am going to Ick Splode” is just priceless.

Everyone watching the sideshow that Jenn put together.

Mya and her grandma.
