Summer Pro Football Hall of Fame Wedding

When Cassie and Bryan booked me for their wedding at the Professional Football Hall of Fame in Canton I was SO excited! While I have been here for engagement sessions, wedding portraits and corporate events I have never photographed a wedding here until now! I’m so glad it was these two I got to check it off with as they are HUGE fans of football and so were their guests. It was fun to see throughout the evening more and more people opt to put on jerseys for their favorite players over their formal clothing after popping in to the gift shop at the museum.

What was more fun though was Cassie and Bryan. These two were SO EXCITED to be married in a place that is dedicated to a sport they both love and enjoy… even if they don’t champion the same teams. Everyone traveled in for the wedding in Canton, which luckily was the week before the Pro Football HOF Enshrinement Week so I hope they got to experience some fun while they were here enjoying the city. You could tell everyone was excited to celebrate in such a historic venue that holds a special place in the couple’s hearts.

I was thankful Cassie and Bryan had an indoor ceremony planned as the weather the day of their wedding was hit and miss – it kept sprinkling off and on all day. Luckily they were willing to deal with the few drops and misty rain for their photos between the ceremony and reception. They were able to go out onto the field at the Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium (you’ll always be Fawcett Stadium to me!) and opted to also get their family over there for photos too which I thought was the right choice! They even had a custom wedding display on the jumbotrons!

Their reception was full of heartfelt moments from lovely toasts from their families to their energetic and fun first dance to their sweet dances with their parents. Everyone was smiling all night long, even me! It was just such a fun night!

Congratulations to you both!
