Union League Philadelphia


	Union League Philadelphia (from its web page) ---- The Union League of Philadelphia, ranked the #1 City Club in the Country, is a shining jewel of history in a city defined by such treasure. Founded in 1862 as a patriotic society to support the Union and the policies of President Abraham Lincoln, The Union League of Philadelphia laid the philosophical foundation of other Union Leagues across a nation torn by civil war. The League has hosted US presidents, heads of state, industrialists, entertainers and dignitaries from around the globe and has proudly supported the American military in each conflict since the Civil War. The Union League continues to be driven by its founding motto, Amor Patriae Ducit or Love of Country Leads. ---- (my viewpoint): It is magnificent--perhaps a bit "nose -in-the-air" with its rules and dress code, but absolutely gorgeous if you're looking for a venue for fancy wedding. ---- Michelle Alton

First of all Michelle, I love the fact that you took the time to give us a story that lets us know the history of this beautiful place. I find that quite interesting and I enjoy reading about the picture, something you are so good at. The picture is beautiful. I love that pov, the gorgeous colors, but its the shape and all the amazing details that make this so special. Another beautiful work my friend. Have a wonderful weekend and enjoy.
