Jordann and Caleb met at a graduation party they almost didn’t attend. “We both were friends of friends of the graduate. We’ve been together for seven years now and are so glad we both decided to go.”
Caleb proposed the day after Thanksgiving in 2019. “He had been carrying the ring around for a while waiting for the perfect moment. I’m very hard to catch off guard so he just decided to pull it out that day out of the blue. It was perfect.”
Eighty-six guests, including a fourteen-person wedding party, helped the couple celebrate their November multicultural nuptials. “I’m Jewish and my husband is African American. We stood under a chuppah, he broke the glass, and we jumped over the broom. I got married in my mom’s original plain wedding band, just like she got married in her mom’s. He placed it on my forefinger per Jewish tradition, then after the ceremony, I gave it back to my mom and he put on the band he bought for me.”
Jordann and Caleb chose to incorporate the fall season into their wedding decor. “We wanted it to be classy but not black-tie formal. Musket Ridge stood out because the scenery is breathtaking, especially in the fall.”
Jordann is a pediatric nurse and Caleb is an electrical engineer. They currently reside in Rockville.
