You Have to See This Lakefront E-Session: Engagement of Bridget and Benji

Photos ByKelley Elyse Photography

Bridget met Benji when they both joined their co-ed cheerleading team in college. After being friends for a few years, Bridget and Benji started dating. COVID ruined Benji's original plan to propose at the Kentucky Derby, so he decided to propose at Bridget's family's clam bake. "I was totally surprised!" Bridget admits. "I did not know it was coming."
 

The happy couple went ring shopping twice to help Bridget get an idea of what she liked. Though he had some input, Benji chose the ring on his own. "I am obsessed with it," Bridget gushes. We think the round stone and simple band are a timeless look that is absolutely stunning!
 

To find a photographer, Bridget took her search to the Internet. She looked high and low until she found Kelley Elyse Photography and fell in love with her bright and airy photography style. "After I first messaged her, our Zoom call to meet was so fun. My fiance and I knew we had to go with her," Bridget raves. Their photos turned out beautiful, and Kelley was able to perfectly capture what Bridget envisioned.
 

Bridget had no idea what she wanted for her wedding when Benji proposed. Trying to find her taste, Bridget toured venues, went to bridal shows and browsed the Internet! Now she can see her wedding coming together. Booking vendors hasn't been the easiest task, but Benji, Bridget and her sister and mother are getting it done by themselves. Bridget explains, "COVID made it difficult with getting our date and vendors because everything in Cleveland is booking up so fast." Though it has been stressful, Bridget and Benji are taking the obstacles in stride and having fun with the planning!
