Clint and Karen are a lovely couple that celebrated their wedding vows at Thornewood Castle on Feburary 20th – and I was honored to be a part of their day.
There is a bit of a background story to this wedding – and why it holds so dearly in my heart. After Christmas of 2009, both Karen and Clint became sick with H1N1. Karen recovered, but Clint didn’t recover as easy – please see his story here: http://www.king5.com/news/H1N1-patient-miraculously-recovers-in-time-to-make-his-wedding-83514612.html
While Clint was not at 100% – he was definitely up for his wedding day! And in addition to a wonderful celebration of love, it became a celebration about life and friends and family!
Thornewood is a unique venue, and we planned the reception around the different “zones” for. I placed a wireless speaker in the dinner room, so background music and announcements could still be heard by all.
The reception was very straight-forward – simple and elegant. The itinerary is below!
