Lemme start here…..
I want you to know Brittany and Grant like I do. Personally. There’s so much more weight behind an image of someone with which you’re familiar. So, esteemed blog reader extraordinaire, I’m going to push you.
Stop analyzing. Stop it. Sit back and enjoy. We’re good at what we do. You should hang out with us. There, I’ve said it. Now just enjoy 🙂
Candidly caught colluding downtown. Super cute. Dudes can say “cute”
We prepped @ the beautiful Arcade, Downtown. It was the backdrop for the entire day. I absolutely love this place. I also have a ton of experience there. It’s funny how you can photograph the same venue many times, yet still pull something different out of every couple. That’s what we do.
What did I tell you? Sparkly.
Sparkly things. Pretty and sparkly and shiny.
Keep out of direct sunlight 😀
Cheers, indeed, ladies. Cheers indeed.
Silhouetted in Arcade. Steeped in classy architecture. Yup.
Dudes get ready so damn fast. With them, it’s not about fastening the suit, it’s about catching them swapping bachelor party stories. It’s also about “alcohol in your hand @ 9 a.m.” blackmail.
I’ve alluded to it before, but the Bridesmaid focus is real. Girls have your back, Brittany. Literally.
I’m so funny.
Freaking adorable.
Ok, now, if you want to know a man or woman, check their luggage. Seriously. I’m not nosey or anything, but from candidly capturing images from the morning, I did happen across suitcase contents as follows:
Grant’s Suitcase:
- A belt
- Some pants
- 18 assortments of liquor and probably a few craft beers thrown in as well
Brittany’s Suitcase:
- Various and sundry girly things
- Sparkly things
- More sparkly things
We had a beautiful day to be outside. Not a cloud in sight. It was November, so chilly, but as you can see, it doesn’t show. The excitement and joy stoke an internal warmth uninhibited by November. That’s right, November. Joke’s on you.
I absolutely love me a flailing veil. It’s a pretty contrast against a dark building.
She’s got a radiant smile, this one. She does.
It’s fun to waltz around downtown Cleveland and find a new or interesting structure you haven’t been privy to before. This is actually a parking lot exit. It’s actually kind of awesome.
Her smile really is great. It’s also telling. She’s bubbly and sweet. It’s not deceiving you, it’s informing you.
A very pretty ceremony, but they were laughing, cheerful, outright silly a few times. That’s awesome. You don’t have to be serious because the ceremony holds weight. Enjoy it 🙂
I’m a huge fan of the cake. It was also quite scrumptious!
Some awesome design elements, here. I do love the macaroons!
I also want my wife to make bow-tie cookies. She’s mad at you Brittany. You brought that need along. It’s your fault! At least, that’s what I told her….
Wait, is she laughing?! You kidding me?!
Yes, yes she is.
So, Grant is a big dude. You would think imposing and scary. He’s not. He’s a big bearded teddy bear beer snob. That’s my kinda guy. Polite and as sweet as could be.
What reception is not complete without some Wobbling?! One that’s incomplete, of course.
Naturally, if you’re going to be right by a bowling alley, why wouldn’t you stop at Corner Alley??
Thanks, guys, for letting us be a part of your day. We couldn’t have had a better time celebrating with you.
One year anniversary gift? Shiny liquor.
