An Outdoor Wedding in Chagrin Falls, OH

Becci was working in a coffee shop when she first met Jimmy. She couldn’t help but notice the guy who came in for coffee four to five times during her shifts -- and would only let Becci prepare his drink. After about two months of much caffeine, Jimmy finally asked her out, and the pair quickly became practically inseparable. The Bride Rebecca (Becci) Avram, 26, a social worker The Groom James (Jimmy) Ruggles Jr., 36, a bike shop general manager The Date October 3 About two years later (on April Fools’ Day), Becky and Jimmy took a walk through the Hinckley Reservation. They stopped to rest on a bench, but when Becci tried to get up, Jimmy yelled, “Wait!” and held up a ring box. When Becci opened it, it was empty except for a small note, which read, “April Fools.” Becky was mad at first, but she quickly forgave Jimmy when he pulled out the ring and asked her to marry him. The happily engaged pair quickly got to work planning their whimsical orange and pomegranate wedding at The Club at Hillbrook.
