Week Ending May 22, 2011

LOVE THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: “Love is a fruit in season at all times, and within the reach of every hand” – Mother Teresa

MILITARY MONDAYS – Robert and Erin helped us more than we helped them at this celebration. It was so heartwarming to serve such a happy couple. This was one of the first celebrations where everyone got involved. Imagine their surprise to find a the solo violinist, Francesca from Caprice Strings, Lisa, the Photographer from Elle G Photography, Jerry, the videographer from Cloudbreak films, and a beautiful bouquet created and donated by Katrina O’Donnell Custom Florals. Thank you everyone for being part of the magic and Thank you Robert for your service to our country!

Here is the link to the video that Jerry put together! Thank Jerry, awesome work. Erin and Robert for Military Mondays™

Military Mondays™ is just a small way for me to give back to our hero’s by offer free elopement services to any and all full time active military every Monday. I also ask local wedding professionals to help me serve those that serve us by donating their time and talents to these wonderful couples. Photographers, Videographers, Florists and Musicians. Each one of these professionals gives so much and I am humbled and grateful for their participation. for more information, please visit http://www.freemilitaryelopement.com
