I had the privilege of witnessing and documenting Chris and Jordan’s wedding celebration. Bonus, the day included many of my favorite Akron locations. Preparation began at the Courtyard Akron Downtown, which offers some great views of the Akron skyline. The ceremony was held at St. Hilary Parish. We stopped at the always-wonderful Stan Hywet Hall & Gardens and dodged raindrops for relaxed portraits before capping the day with an elegant reception at the historic Greystone Hall. I hope you enjoy this glimpse of Chris and Jordan’s sweet milestone.
