Haris + Arijana were both born in Bosnia and both their families moved around the time of the Bosnian War. By some twist of fate, they both ended up in Erie, Pennsylvania where they would attend the same schools, go to the same University. But with all they had in common, they would not meet until a mutual friend made the connection and decided they needed to meet. From this point, their story together began and they quickly realized that what they have is something special.

Haris and Arijana were married on a beautiful fall day at the Kahkwa Club in Erie, Pennsylvania. Arijana got ready surrounded by her bridesmaids at the Sheraton Erie Bayfront Hotel, in Downtown Erie overlooking the beautiful bay and Presque Isle.

Haris would first get to see his beautiful bride at the first look at the point the Bayfront Convention Center came to a point at the edge of the Bay. When he turned around and saw Arijana standing there he eyes and reaction was priceless. He could not believe his soon to be bride could have been more beautiful but was proven wrong when he saw her as he turned around.

Their ceremony would be held on the beautiful grounds of the Kahkwa Club in Erie, Pennsylvania. The sun would just be on its way down toward sunset and Arijana was walked down the aisle by her mother and father. When they were pronounced married they would walk back down the aisle as husband and wife followed by their closest friends as the violinist played the theme song from Game of Thrones.

After the ceremony, we proceeded to the green of the golf course which was separated by a beautiful forest that provided a fairy tale scene in which the time between the newly married couple and their friends and family could be captured.

Their reception was an electrifying evening full of traditional Bosnian dancing, a band (who flew in from Bosnia), endless desserts, and a dance floor full of energy and friends and family celebrating the new Mr. + Mrs. Halilovic.
