There are a few important things to know about Madeline and Scott’s Cleveland Old Courthouse wedding. The most important point (and I’m sure Madeline would agree) is that their dogs had to have a role in the wedding. However minor, it was imperative that their dogs be present. Also important to know is just how beautiful Madeline looked in her wedding dress. The dress was a stunning blend of blush and champagne color. Words simply don’t do it justice. Lastly, Madeline and Scott had a huge bridal party for their wedding, and I completely understand why. Each bridesmaid and each groomsmen were uniquely awesome! Working with the entire group was truly a dream.

The day started off easy enough. We met at Church of the Gesu at John Carroll University for preparation before the wedding ceremony. While the gentlemen relaxed outside in the crisp winter air, the ladies dutifully helped Madeline prepare inside. The ceremony itself was romantic and poignant, with the priest recounting how a strong relationship is built like the foundation of a house. Following the ceremony, Madeline & Scott’s dogs were brought over for some portraits of their own.

Being a winter wedding, the weather was the biggest risk. However, as you can see below, the weather could not have been more perfect. We stopped by the Cleveland Art Museum for some sunset portraits. During the winter, the sun sets very slowly, which gave us ample time and some amazing peachy colors.

And then there was the Cleveland Old Courthouse wedding reception. In it’s bare form, the courthouse is stunning. The space becomes even more breathtaking when you add Madeline and Scott’s elegant wedding decorations of rich pink and rose. Below are just a few highlights, from beginning to end. In case you are curious, you can also have a look at Madeline & Scott’s Cleveland Museum of Art engagement session.
