If you remember from Elicia and Max’s engagement session post, I mentioned Elicia had been transferred to Cleveland shortly after these two got engaged. Well, after a year of living in different cities, these two finally tied the knot. Their entire day was held at Evolution Gastro-Pong in the Third Ward. Before we headed downtown though, we were sure to capture some of the beautiful fall colors. They couldn’t have been brighter!
Max’s uncle officiated the ceremony, which added a really awesome, personal touch. Typically a pilot, he did a wonderful job! While Elicia was in Ohio, Max planned quite a bit of the wedding- which is rare and very cool! Awesome wedding party, tons of personal touches making the day totally about Elicia and Max, Octopus headbands, ping-pong… how can it get better?
