C and S actually both attended Bowling Green State University (same as me!) but actually never met!! Once they both finished college and moved back to Cleveland, a mutual friend helped bring the two together. Honestly & truly fate!! They both wanted to show their love for Cleveland and their truly amazing group of friends. I can’t say I’ve seen a TRUE ride or die group like this, full of laughter and inside jokes. They also knew they wanted to have a wedding that showcased a Art Deco/Vintage vibe, and the Metropolitan at the 9 was perfect!
The gorgeous sunny September wedding ceremony was up on the rooftop, with the cleveland skyline all around us and Lake Erie to the right. Cocktail hour after was held in the historic Vaults used by Rockafeller, now turned Speakeasy. A truly gorgeous and unique place! Actually, we did their engagement photos at the 9 as well, and it was so fun to run around and see all the historic and 20s themed spaces. We finished the day in a gorgeous reception room full of pop punk music (uh yes please), dancing, singing, and laughter.
Enjoy!
