Celebrating in Style


Amy and Tim gathered a large group of relatives and friends for their wedding ceremony at The Grand Marquis in Old Bridge, NJ. Grandmother, parents, siblings, fellow fire-fighters, friends of all ages, and even their little dog...all present to celebrate their wedding.

The ceremony included their love story, original vows, the exchange of rings, and a rose ritual. All of this took place in a lovely ceremony setting in this catering venue.

Before the wedding, I watched as the venue knocked down the set-up for a bar mitzvah in the afternoon and transformed the room into a stunning setting for a wedding. It was a one hour miracle! So the next time you attend an event, take a moment to appreciate all the behind-the-scenes work that folks did to make a wonderful celebration for their clients.












Ceremony Tip: If your wedding ceremony is going to be in a large venue that may hold several events on your wedding day, work with them to make sure your schedule meshes realistically with their work load. For example, if you plan on having a walk through at the site on the day of the wedding...make sure your room will be available or there is some other provision for a day-off rehearsal.
