Wedding at The Hancock Hotel in Findlay

September 25, 2021

Jenna and Aaron’s wedding at The Hancock Hotel in Findlay was a celebration of their love – a culmination of the days from their youth to their shared life as successful adults. Their event was classy, elegant, and filled with laughter and love!

Growing up, Jenna and Aaron attended the same high school and shared the same friends. Their parents also went to school together … and ironically, Aaron’s mom was Jenna’s 5th grade teacher! ☺️

Their friendship continued in college while Jenna was completing an internship in Columbus and Aaron was playing football at nearby Ohio Dominican University. They spent time getting to know one another better and discovered they had similar goals of careers in finance. Eventually, their friendship blossomed into love, and the rest of the story unfolded. 💗

Aaron shopped for engagement rings on his lunch breaks and told Jenna when he thought he found the perfect one. He then arranged for Jenna and her grandma, Mimsi to spend a special day together picking out their wedding bands, and I’m told she has a keen eye for all things sparkly. 💎

Jenna has a style after my own heart. Simple. Classic. Elegant. Her choice of venues for their wedding at The Hancock Hotel in Findlay fit her vision perfectly. The Presidential Suite was a dreamy and roomy space for the ladies to get ready. The surrounding block was lovely for their First Look and photos with the bridal party, and the ballroom was versatile for a seamless transition from ceremony to stunning reception!

Five years after they started dating, Jenna and Aaron have built a life of love together while also meeting their career goals as financial advisors for the same company. The two are ready to enjoy all the joys of everyday life relaxing at their new home surrounded by all their family. In married life, Jenna and Aaron look forward to traveling, spending time with friends, and visiting breweries, distilleries, and places with good food! They are blessed to be supported by wonderful families who share the same values, (Amen🙏🏻), and they have a fantastic group of friends with whom to share their time.

Jenna and Aaron, I pray that you will continue to experience many blessings in your married life. I have loved getting to know you and your beautiful families. Wishing you nothing but happiness.

Warmly,

Amy
