In partnership with the City of Reading. This mural marks the eastern entrance of the famous Reading Bridal District, the largest bridal district in North America.
Blending traditional handcrafted wedding lace patterns with a bold graphic style, Love Blooms is both timeless and modern, recalling the familiar adage “something old, something new.” The simple letters L-O-V-E reference the romantic love of Bridal District shoppers while providing an uplifting message for the whole community to share.
Special Thanks to Reading Bridal District, Duke Energy, Time Warner Cable & Tami Burkel.
