Melanie and Cody got married at the James E Bruce Convention Center. It's always great when a venue can accommodate both ceremonies and receptions, cutting down on travel time and venue expenses. Their ceremony, held in one of the ballrooms, was GORGEOUS! The white drapery on the walls and cascading down from the ceiling looks amazing!
