Brian & Erin

by James & Genevieve
published on October 19th, 2010
A Fall Wedding at Gesu and the Renaissance in Downtown Cleveland

Brian and Erin would have been hard pressed to pick a better day to get married on. Changing leaves, pleasant temperatures, and the beautiful blue skies that only October can bring made for a fantastic setting.

Brian and Erin first met on the soccer field at John Carroll University, just a short walk from where the ceremony took place at the Church of the Gesu.

The timeline started to run a little tight so we thought we were going to have to give up our last photo location outside the courthouse which was were Erin had originally planned to have her reception. Jim, the Lolly the Trolley driver who had been carting everyone around all day, graciously offered to stay past his contracted time to drive us over the courthouse, wait for us while we took some photos then drive us back to the Renaissance. Now that’s service!
