ACrossFit couple held a deadlift contest and much more during their CrossFit-inspired wedding. 

CrossFit couple Caleb and Ericka Sommer were planning their wedding when they knew there could only be one theme...

We wanted the ceremony to reflect our personalities: hungry, outgoing and a little bit crazy,” Ericka told PopSugar. “So our officiant fed me fried chicken and then we did shots of pre-workout with our guests. He knew I’d be hungry if we stood too long in our 20-minute ceremony, so he brought me a snack.”

The couple made sure their wedding reflected their love of fitness and gave their guests plenty of unique memories.They had a Jell-O-eating contest, paying tribute to their tendency to competitively eat when dining out together). The spectacle concluded with a deadlift competition.

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
