Another perfect day for a wedding in Cleveland - 77 degrees, sunny and blue skies. Ben and Sarah picked a very unique venue for their wedding. They rented out the restaurant Toast in the Gordon Square District. Very, very cool. The wedding ceremony took place in a patio area at the back of the restaurant in front of a gigantic tree. It was a bit tight for 80 guests but no one seemed to mind in such a joyous atmosphere.

Both the bride and groom said their vows and ring exchange with such love and devotion. It was very sweet. And Evie, Sarah’s 11-year old daughter, did a reading that was just perfect. She was very composed and delivered it quite nicely.

These are two of the nicest people I’ve married. Very down-to-earth, sincere and very personable. They certainly make a very special couple. Sarah had an extraordinary dress that I wish I had gotten a better photo of. It was kind of vintage looking being form fitting on the torso and fanning out at the bottom. She wore it very well and looked just stunning. Ben was smartly dressed with a blue suit and brown shoes - a very “in” fashion these days.

Ben’s 99 year-old grandmother was in attendance. What a great memory for couple and their family. No doubt these two will have a wonderful life full of love and happiness. I am so grateful for meeting them and being a small part of their special day.
