Jeri and Eric's Wedding: Part 1

Jeri and Eric met on the swim team at Auburn University when they were both freshman, where they developed a close friendship and four years later began dating. Eric is a 2008 Olympian and cancer survivor. During the summer of 2008, he achieved his dream of qualifying for the U.S. Olympic Swim Team. On June 19, 2008, just one week before the trials, he was diagnosed with testicular cancer. Eric was able to delay surgery to compete in the Olympic Games where he swam a personal best time in the 200 meter breaststroke.

Currently, Eric trains under Dave Salo with the pro team at the University of Southern California. He spends his extra time working as a LIVESTRONG Envoy for the Lance Armstrong Foundation, and enjoying his new life with Jeri. He is an advocate for cancer awareness and travels the country giving motivational speeches to swimmers, students, business professionals, and fundraisers.

Because we did Jeri's sister, Casey and brother-in-law Brando's wedding (as seen previously on our blog), Jeri and Eric wanted something completely different since several guests would attend both weddings. Two weddings for two sisters within six months was a challenge, but we pulled it off! It was so interesting to finish Casey and Brando's wedding and then go straight into planning Jeri and Eric's wedding. Even though it was the same venue, it was a completely different look.

Stay tuned next week for Part 2 of Jeri and Eric's wedding with more beautiful photos by Cean One Photography!

  1. You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something that I think I would never understand. It seems too complex and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post; I’ll try to get the hang of it!San Antonio Wedding
