Julia & Patrick's Lilac Wedding on the Campus of Baldwin Wallace University | Berea, OH | July 13, 2018

Julia and Patrick are two musically-inclined newlyweds! They met in the music program at Baldwin Wallace and returned to campus for their wedding in July.  The ceremony took place in St. Adalbert Catholic Church in Berea, and the reception was held at Crowne Plaza Hotel in Cleveland, with portrait locations including Coe Lake and the Baldwin Wallace University campus.  One characteristic that stands out about both Julia and Patrick is their kindness.  There is a gentleness about both of them, and it is especially evident when they are interact with their families (fun fact: the entire bridal party was made up of family members).  Getting ready with the guys, I loved seeing Patrick tenderly button his youngest brother's vest and having a different younger brother make sure his hair was neat and tidy.  Julia was a completely timeless bride. She was absolutely glowing, and it was the first time I have heard an audible gasp when the church doors opened up to her, back lit with a cathedral-length veil, linked arm and arm with her tearful mom and dad.  Congratulations Julia and Patrick.  I'm sure you will be making beautiful music together for a long time to come.
