Deanna and Dave’s Wedding at The Club at Hillbrook

Elizabeth — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:26:46 +0000

Deanna and Dave met at Put-In-Bay. Deanna was celebrating her graduation from medical school, and Dave was there for a friend’s birthday. That’s where their story started.

A little more than a year later, after Deanna had been “matched” with a residency spot, Dave took the opportunity to get down on bended knee and ask her to accept another “match”. His hand in marriage.

Their wedding was held at Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Cleveland, Ohio, with a packed church of almost 300 guests in attendance, followed by a gorgeous reception in Chagrin Falls at The Club at Hillbrook. With flowers literally dripping everywhere, bridesmaids that looked like goddesses (they wore all white dresses), and the Club’s tudor charm, it felt like we were in a fairytale.

Anna & Rick’s Wedding at Windows on the River

Elizabeth — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 18:08:55 +0000

Since we initially met last spring, I’d been looking forward to Anna’s gorgeous wedding day. It was then that she told me about her fiance, Rick, who travels frequently as a pilot. In fact, he proposed to Anna on a trip to Paris — at the Eiffel tower.

We had a beautiful Saturday in downtown Cleveland, and we made the most of it by going to two photo locations in between the ceremony at The Old Stone Church and reception at Windows on the River. Their wedding was elegant and classy, yet we had a fun & relaxing time with Anna, Rick & their wedding party.

Barb and Marc met at a Halloween party several years ago. Last March, Marc surprised Barb at a local jewelry store by buying her a ring and dropping down on one knee.

These two share a great sense of humor and it’s obvious they’re totally into each other.

Recently, I met up with Katy and Frank for our E-Session at one of my favorite spots — Downtown Cleveland! Frank is the brother of another client, Manda, who was married in 2008.

During our session, we walked around to a few locations in the area, dodged some Browns fans and braved the chilly Cleveland temps. Katy and Frank were really great for putting up with the cold weather during our session! Northeastern Ohio winters can get SO COLD! Brrr….
