College sweethearts, Lesley and Brian met at Syracuse University when they became friends working at the student newspaper, the Daily Orange. One night in February 2007, after a massive snowstorm, Brian asked Lesley out on their first date and soon after the two became inseparable. As avid Syracuse sports fans, Brian proposed to Lesley while in Syracuse for a basketball game against Georgetown University, the actual proposal happened in the Daily Orange office where they first met!
Their gorgeous Fall wedding was held at The Whittemore House in Washington, DC. During their ceremony, which was officiated by a close friend, their love story was retold. Lesley and Brian’s orange, gray and white wedding combined lush dahlias, an abundance of local pumpkins and meaningful moments throughout the day. The highlight was a surprise visit from the official mascot of Syracuse University, Otto the Orange!
