A Classic Cincinnati Wedding with Iconic Views

Dana and Logan’s wedding day was the definition of timeless elegance. From start to finish, this day was full, fast-paced, and absolutely stunning—and I loved every single minute of it.

The day began at the AC Hotel by Marriott, where we captured clean, minimalist getting-ready portraits and beautiful black-and-white flatlay details. Dana’s details were refined and intentional, setting the tone for the rest of the day.

Smale Park: The Perfect First Look Location

Our first stop for portraits was Smale Park, and wow—this location delivered. Dana and Logan shared the sweetest first look, followed by bridal party portraits that were full of laughter and personality. The bridesmaids wore elegant black dresses, the men looked incredibly sharp, and the lighting was chef’s kiss perfection.

One of my favorite areas here is the spiral stone section (I honestly don’t know the official name, but I’ll never stop using it). It’s architectural, dramatic, and timeless—perfect for both romantic portraits and editorial-style images.

Ceremony & More City Views

Next stop: St. Francis de Sales Church, where Dana and Logan exchanged vows in a beautiful ceremony. From there, we headed to Eden Park for even more portraits—because when your bridal party is this enthusiastic, you take advantage of it.

This is where Dana truly stepped into her bride era. Her updo framed her face perfectly, her veil added movement and drama, which completed the look.

Reception at The View at Mt. Adams

We ended the night at The View at Mt. Adams, and it did not disappoint. The tablescape details were elegant and modern, and that chandelier over the dance floor? Unreal. The wall of windows overlooking Cincinnati made the entire reception glow as the city lit up at night.

This wedding was classic, intentional, and beautifully executed—and one I’ll never forget.
