CLEVELAND (WJW) – A happy couple of Cleveland fans has officially tied the knot at the Muni Lot during Cleveland’s season opener.
Charles “Brown Spider” Bevel Jr. and DeSiree “First Lady” Wheeler, two of the most dedicated Browns fans, officially tied the knot on Sunday, September 7, at 9:30 a.m.
Prior to their wedding day, the couple chatted with local station WJW on Wednesday, sharing details about their meeting, the origins of their nicknames, and their decision to hold the ceremony at the renowned Muni Lot—a plan that humorously started as a joke.
The couple wore “wedding-inspired” attire during the ceremony, but the orange and brown were featured prominently.
Something old, nothing new, the happy couple would have been a lot happier going home with a win on Sunday, but we’re all used to the Sunday blues.
The couple said they are very appreciative of the support they got on Sunday morning and throughout the whole process.
Brown Spider and First Lady mentioned to WJW on Sunday that they were pulling an all-nighter handling last-minute details, ready to seize the Muni Lot as soon as it opened at 5 a.m.
They had a stage set up and bought enough parking spaces to fit about 100 seats.
As the ceremony kicked off at 9:30 a.m., it seemed like all attention was drawn to these devoted Browns supporters, with a special surprise: former Browns receiver Webster Slaughter was the officiant.
After sealing their vows, we caught up with the newlyweds. They admitted to feeling a bit anxious due to the morning’s rain, but were relieved as everything fell into place perfectly.
“We are incredibly grateful to everyone for braving the rain to be with us. It was a fantastic day,” shared Charles. “It was undoubtedly the best idea we’ve ever had.”
The couple will be honeymooning the first week of October in London. They will be in the stands for the Browns-Vikings games there across the pond.
The couple also said they realized their anniversary should fall on week one moving forward, so hopefully, some anniversary wins are in their future.
