From the Bride: “Try and make your wedding as unique and personable as possible. We met at college, so we got married in Cleveland, took pictures on campus and had the president of John Carroll University marry us. I had my mother’s wedding dress lace wrapped around my bouquet and also made the ring pillow completely of her lace, which will be passed down for generations!”

Advice from the couple:  “Enjoy every second of being engaged and planning your wedding because it truly goes by so quickly! Also, try not to stress because no matter what that day will be perfect! The best advice: You cannot make everyone happy so do what YOU want to do. This is such an amazing day that is to celebrate the beginning of your lives together. Make it about you and your wife/husband.”
