The bride, Sonia Meneses, had her Cinderella wedding granted by the Gifted Wedding this past weekend on April 9, 2011 at the Crowne Plaza. Melissa Haley of M Haley Designs in created this incredible seating chart for the guests. It was just gorgeous!

I was so excited to have found the very talented Erika Cockerham of O'Fallon. She is such an amazing pianist! She wowed the congregation with her beautiful music for the ceremony and the cocktail hour.Thank you Erika for donating your time, it was very appreciated by all!

Going along with the Cinderella Theme, an ice sculpture was created by Ice Visions to surprise our bride!. It was a perfect addition to the beautiful ballroom. 

During the evening, the bride and groom decided to do a dollar dance. I thought this was kind of odd since I did a dollar dance way back when, when I got married back in '96! Anyway, we always want to please our clients so off they went dancing away and collecting their dollars. I must say that what took place afterwards was the coolest thing I've seen in a very long time. After the dollar dances were over, Sonia & Greg took the mic and made an announcement that all the money they just received from the dollar dance was being donated to the Gifted Wedding! What a surprise! They also had one last surprise for us, they presented the Gifted Wedding staff with the following plaque.

What a great night. The evening was even televised on Channel 5 later on that evening. I am proud to be a member of the Gifted Wedding. If there is anyone that is interested in participating or donating to the Gifted Wedding, please let me know and I will get you connected with the proper person in charge. Congratulations to Sonia & Greg!
