Reception

Our Wedding

Ben and Claire met during the summer of 2018 while working together at Nordstrom. One day, he made multiple trips to the alterations department (conveniently located by the women's department where Claire worked) and finally said hello. The two hit it off right away, going on multiple breakfast and lunch meet ups, seeing movies and finally having their first official date in December 2018 where they closed down Cedar Creek Grille. Ben officially asked Claire to be his girlfriend in April 2019 and on March 23rd, 2024, he got down on one knee at the Cleveland Museum of Art and asked her to be his wife. They live together in University Heights with their Boston Terrier, Dolly. They are so excited for all the amazing times ahead!
