Pearls Events Press | Venue Guide in Brides Michigan

Around mid-June, I received an email that made me fall off my chair. Literally. It was from Brides Michigan Magazine requesting an interview with me about classic wedding venues in West Michigan. Thankfully, I had worked at more than a few traditional venues in my area, and was happy to send along some info for her write up.

I featured St. Cecilia's Dexter Ballroom, the Amway Grand's Imperial Room, and Fruitport Golf Club--as they are all classic + traditional ballrooms in West Michigan, and open to the public.

A big THANK YOU to Jonathan Thrasher, Amy Carroll and Daniel J. Pesta for supplying the images for the article--as we all know in the blogging world, photos make the article shine.

(please note, the photo of St. Cecilia's is tagged incorrectly in the article. The photo is by Jonathan Thrasher)

Althea - OMG! That means there is two of us from West Michigan rockin' the magazine! I, too, fell off my chair when they called - I know the feeling! Isn't cool to say your name in print?
Maybe they should change the name to West Michigan Bride - or start a new one with all of the awesome talent we have in the area!
Way to go! Yeah!
