Good food, big tables, and family all around make Mama Chang such a joyful place for our Philadelphia wedding photographers. This restaurant sits on Bethlehem Pike in Colmar, in Montgomery County. It is an easy drive from Philadelphia. Chef Peter Chang opened it in the fall of 2025. He is a celebrated Chinese chef and a James Beard Award finalist.

Mama Chang is named for the women in the Chang family. The menu focuses on home style dishes from Hubei, Hunan, and Sichuan that have been passed down for generations. The space is big and welcoming. It covers about 9,700 square feet, with two large dining rooms and a private event space. It can seat up to 280 guests.

Inside, light wood, hand carved panels, and large communal tables give the room a warm family feel. That makes it perfect for a dinner party style celebration. Guests can gather, share plates, and enjoy an amazing meal together. For our team, a lively dining room is full of candid moments. Laughter, toasts, and happy faces are everywhere you look.

Kevin and Christina’s Joyful Dinner Party Wedding

Kevin and Christina both studied Mechanical Engineering at Drexel University. Christina moved from Houston to Philadelphia in 2018 for school. Kevin grew up in Downingtown. They were introduced on a night out with friends. They later found out that Kevin’s cousin’s parents share the very same birthdays as the two of them. His family is superstitious, so that was a great sign!

Christina also became good friends with Kevin’s younger sister, Kianna. In 2019, their schedules lined up, and they started sharing classes and friend groups. They became study buddies, snack partners, and gaming partners. In 2020, they even worked internships at the same company. Little by little, friendship turned into love.

Their wedding was a formal Chinese dinner party with fun extras, like a photobooth, raffles, and casino tables. Instead of a traditional ceremony, they held a tea ceremony. It included gifts from the groom’s family to the bride’s family and a tea offering to their elders. They wore two outfits. One was a Vietnamese ao dai with a deep royal blue top and lavender silk pants. The other was a Chinese outfit in crimson and bright red. Their overall colors were red and ivory.
