Yesterday morning, April 12th, 2008 I awoke to the sound of my children playing in the living room. I made my way into the living room and was slightly surprised with the view as I looked out the window. Mother Nature decided to dump 3 to 5 inches of snow on us on the overnight and I was faced with the task of snowblowing my driveway just so I could get out to perform at last night’s wedding reception. Bryan and Lindsey LaMarch had already been married 3 weeks earlier aboard the cruise ship the Norwegian Pearl, and were now having their celebration back home with family and friends. Of course being a former cruise ship entertainer I was immediately enchanted with this couple having learned of their plans of marriage during our initial interview.
The setting for their reception was the Island Resort & Casino and as always, Sherry Skradski, the convention supervisor did a fabulous job in decorating the Paradise Room to reflect Lindsey and Bryan’s tropical themed wedding. She had amazing attention to detail with sea horses and starfish in the trees surrounding the room and a lavishly decorated buffet of heavy hors d’ouevres for guests to enjoy. The reception was designed to be more laid back and really just a party with very little of the traditional wedding formalities. A fellow Dream Day Event Center vendor, Tara was there in attendance and it was also great to see people that I hadn’t seen in awhile such as Paul Jacobs (my dentist)and his lovely wife, Jim Dufresne (the father of the bride) and Andrew and Karin Doutree (Matron of Honor). A great time was had by all with the personalized introductions seemingly being one of the highlights of the evening. As I look ahead, Gladstone High School’s prom will be this weekend. My wife, her sister and brother all graduated from Gladstone and we as a family are glad that my son and daughter will also be attending the same school system that my wife was educated through. I’ll be making my preparations during this week to rock 250 high school students and create Prom memories that will hopefully last a lifetime.
