columbus museum of art wedding: natalie + jacob

the best word i have to describe natalie + jacob’s wedding at the CMOA is joyous. the day was oh so intentional and they fully embraced all the jewish traditions from the tisch and ketubah to the yichud and mezinka and a wild and beautiful hora before an amazing kosher meal. the dancing was the most fun (and tiring, haha) i’ve ever experienced. local ice cream from graeter’s was served to round out the evening, and i flew back home completely exhausted but more than fulfilled. i photographed natalie’s sister’s wedding at camp wandawega many years ago, so this was a beautiful and full-circle moment to see the whole family again. <3
