The ceremony will be held at Bre's home church in Tremont. The ceremony is a 15 minute drive from Downtown Cleveland in fair weather.

Cocktail hour will be held on the 2nd floor of the Old Courthouse. If coming from Lakeside Avenue, enter through the front doors of the building, go through security, and head up to the 2nd floor via the elevators to your right, or you can walk up the grand staircase. If coming through the underground tunnel from the Hilton Cleveland Downtown, take the escalators in the Hilton lobby down one floor to the underground level, walk through the tunnel, and turn left to walk across the Huntington parking garage. About half way down the parking garage, enter the Old Courthouse from the underground entrance, go through security, and follow the signs up to the 2nd floor. Pursuant to Ohio Revised Code § 2923.123, no person shall knowingly convey or attempt to convey a deadly weapon or dangerous ordnance into a courthouse or into another building or structure in which a courtroom is located.

This event is formal/black tie optional. Think longer hem lines for the ladies & darker suits or tuxedos for the guys.
The twin of Cleveland City Hall, the Cuyahoga County Courthouse was designed by Chares Morris of the architectural firm of Lehman and Schmitt. Started in 1905 and completed in 1912, the Old Courthouse helps anchor the north end of the Mall and is adjacent to Mall "C" dedicated as Strawbridge Plaza in 2003. The exterior retains its integrity, and the rotunda underwent renovation in 2002. The Courthouse was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. As a brief side note (and fun fact): Bre grew up dreaming of having her wedding reception at the Old Courthouse. Bre worked in this building between undergrad and law school, as it is an operational courthouse Monday through Friday. The building proves to be the perfect place to celebrate the marriage of two young attorneys!
